Chapter 762: Chapter 547: Join In_2 Chapter 762: Chapter 547: Join In_2 Even though Mary knew she would make her friends worry if she took on dangerous work, she felt that given the unknown dangers this world harbored, she would rather learn how to deal with them proactively than wait for trouble to find her. This way, at least she could protect her friends from harm.
So, in the end, she decided to join the Tribunal.
“Whether it's fighting or anything else, as long as I can do it, I'll do my best!”
Looking at Mary, who was really serious about it, Duanmu Huai also felt a little troubled, but if Mary was voluntarily willing to join…
“Are you sure? That means you have to accept Lorena's training you know?”
“……Eh?”
Upon hearing that, Mary momentarily froze. It was understandable, after all, Lorena's Spartan-like training methods were not something an average person could withstand. Even within the Tribunal, there was no one brave enough to train with her, which was why.
“Just kidding, you can choose other ways of training.”
After all, even Duanmu was loath to undertake Lorena's arduous regimen.
“Phew…”
Mary breathed out a sigh of relief. If she really had to train under Lorena, she worried she wouldn't make it back alive.
“So… What should I do?”
“Well…”
Duanmu Huai also found it difficult to decide in response to Mary's question, but just then…
“Anyway, let's go to the Tribunal first.”
“Eh? Do I need any preparation?”
“No need, just follow me.”
Returning to the Tribunal for Duanmu Huai was as simple as opening a teleportation gate. Of course, for Mary, the moment she stepped through the teleportation gate, the sight of the lavish, gothic, giant metallic building and the astonishing view beyond had completely blown her away.
“Anyway, start by watching the recordings, we'll talk more after.”
Duanmu Huai motioned for a maid to lead the stunned Mary to the screening room to experience the Tribunal's “corporate culture,” while he dismissed a system prompt —- [Do you want to settle special mission points?].
As if, these points are not enough for even ten continuous ones. There's no use in settling.
“Ah, Lord, welcome back.”
At that moment, Audrey approached respectfully with a curtsy.
“Mm, Audrey, long time no see. Is there anything you need to report?”
“Yes, a report regarding Colonel Shepperd of the Star Union.”
“Oh?”
Duanmu Huai took the file handed over by Audrey and flipped through it. It was a report from the Shepperd siblings. According to their report, not long ago, a ghost agent from the Shenbao Council defected. Upon tracing him, they discovered the agent was brainwashed by the Collectors and even manipulated a starship to attack the Divine Fort. Of course, they repelled the attack and killed the brainwashed ghost agent while destroying the starship.
However, the problem is that the Shenbao Council didn't agree with their investigative report. They believed the starship was the work of Jaycee and it had nothing to do with the legendary Reapers… The Shepperd siblings were also left speechless by this…
“Humph, if the Council wants to court death, let them. It's better if they don't believe.”
After reading the report, Duanmu Huai snorted coldly. As a judge, he was initially considering using the Reapers to wipe out all other races in the Shenbao Council. Now, if the Shenbao Council wants to foolishly court death, it's even better. When the Reaper Legion comes, their demise would be fully deserved, and the Tribunal would have nothing to do with it.
After all, the Shepperd siblings had given warnings. It's up to them whether they want to believe or not.
Actually, it's better if they don't believe. This way, when the Reaper Legion arrives, the Shenbao Council can't use this as an excuse to blame the Star Union. Of course, it wouldn't be Duanmu Huai's concern whether they can make excuses or not once the Reapers arrive – excuses won't work for the dead.
The Tribunal only cares about humans; why should they care about the fate of non-human species? Duanmu Huai had no intention of helping the foolish alien creatures in the Shenbao Council.
By the way, when the Divine Fort was attacked, they tried to seek help from the Tribunal. But since most of the species in the Shenbao Council were aliens, the Tribunal Fleet didn't move at all. The Tribunal never joined the Divine Fort Council, so why should they care about their fate? Running out to expose their hand to the Reapers is not something the sensible Tribunal would do.
But then, looking at Audrey, Duanmu Huai was reminded of something trivial.
“By the way, Audrey, you're a noble miss, aren't you?”
“Eh? Ah…… yes…… may I ask what's the matter?”
“Do noble misses have a lot of troublesome rules?”
Duanmu Huai remembered Mary's two friends complaining lots about this issue. But to be honest, he had met quite a few noble misses and didn't feel these rules to be particularly troublesome.
Or did they differ from world to world?
