She transmigrated and started different life 159 159.The case is closed...

When they saw the message they had to laugh and show it to Isaa that just felt sorry for the fool.

''Let her have some fun. She is at that age where she can afford to be playful. After all, she has us as backing, right dear?'' Of course, Lord Cassian was on teh side of his precious daughter. After all, Kendra would act like this only if someone overstepped to much and offended her..or them?... Ugh in this case, should they go watch as well?

Lady Xara saw his changing expressions and swung her hand and with loud thump hit his head. ''Let her have fun, you have work to do. Sit and finish, now!!!''

Isaa actually sat there quietly but was stupified by viciousness her mother sometime shad towards her father. Maybe she should like that as well in the future. Then husbands will listen better, look at how he listens to mother's words... amazing.

''Mom, you are my idol.'' Isaa held Lady Xara's hand.

She looked at stary eyes chidl in confusion. ''What is Idol?'

''That is a word Kendra taught me. This means someone who you look upon and is a role model for you and future life.'' Her hand softly toughed the baby's stomach and felt small movements inside.

Lady Xara and Lord Cassian looked at each other and the Isaa. ''Does that mean Kendra has someone who she looks up at?''

Isaa nodded. ''She told me she does, but when I asked who she just smiled and said, secreeet.''

''Oh.'' They shrugged it off as tehy had anyway so much to do. The paperwork they had never stopped for a second. But that doesn't bother them. After all, they are sharing everything including this part. At least they are in the same place and can work closely.

Lord Cassian gave Lady Xara glance and she went furious as she hissed: ''Do that one more time and I won't see you until our chidl is born. Understood?''

he felt he overstepped and just hugged her planted small kiss on her nose and sat down to work. He didn't see how angry expression changed into loving one on Lady Xara's face, but Isaa did. One more thing learned, be vicious if there is no other way but love with all the heart and protect the one you love, no matter how silly he is.

Suddenly she remembered Cian's silly expressions since they met the first time and chuckled. Yep, same as father, if you can have grand breakthrough after closed cultivation, you... will... be ... mine!!!

Inside the  City Hall was a different picture. Kendra set judges, lawyers, prosecutors ...whole system of laws like in past life. So in case of dispute, everyone was even in eyes of law. 

There were five judges that handled cases fairly. When they arrived one of the courtrooms became free so they were lead inside by guards. 

They set them on two sides. ''If any of these sides make problems you will get great fines. If you didn't know, out city lord loves gold...very much. So get him richer... please.'' One of the courtroom officers smiled at both sides as he said these words and then just bowed.

Then he stood still while his eyes darted from one side to the other.  Kendra rose her eyebrows. This officer is cute. He can't wait to earn more money for her father but doesn't know that City Lord's daughter is there. She almost started laughing but stopped herself.

Soon a man came in in officer's uniform and sat on the main position of the court. ''I am judge Chris Ma. Does any of the sides need a lawyer? They are free. I recommend one. '' he looked around and saw a woman with children raising her hand after she spoke to the boy behind her. 

''I would need one as an original citizen of Caledon Valley.'' She said with a shaky voice and sat slowly down.

Chris Ma scrunched his eyebrows. This means ha has to call the rest of the judges in and the City Lord. Her words meant official request to be judged as Citizens of this Valley. It means this man has someone big behind his back and she needs protection from the City Lord.

He coughed and breathed deeply. he turned around with serious expression and with a grave voice said. ''Call the great court of Caledon Valley we have requested here. Hurry!!!''

As the woman was preoccupied with children and the man boasted with friends the only person who saw nervousness of the judge and his quick response was Kendra. Father chooses smart people indeed.

When the rest of the judges entered they recognized Kendra. But she put a finger on her mouth and winked at them. Chris Ma saw everything and was confused. He whispered to the nearest. ''Do you know that boy?''

The judge smiled. ''You have no idea. But to tell you one thing. When that boy starts smiling brightly, those that annoy him, usually get badly hurt ...or die. Let us deal with this case. If that child called for the Great Court that means again some people are acting up. So just be calm and do what you learned in this short time.''

Bunch of soldiers came in standing on all sides of the courtroom scaring that man and his friends into silence. The woman got scared but one comforting hand patted her shoulder and she saw boy behind her smiling. ''With those words, you called Great Court of Caledon Valley. Only citizens o this Valley can call upon them. the main judge is Lord Cassian himself. Please trust him.''

The woman sighed in relief. She looked at the two girls and boy with a comforting smile and hugged them. The children were not nervous at all. Actually they felt much safer with all those soldiers around then with their father, so they felt actually quite relaxed.

''We will commence soon the Great Court of Caledon Valley. For those that don't know this instance can be called only by original citizens of Caledon Valley. The main judge will be his Lordship Cassian of Caledon Valley. Please wait for a bit until he arrives.'' Soon few servants came in with some warm tea and snacks and brought them to the woman and children.

''Hey, what about us?'' The man complained.

The servant respectfully bowed. ''Any of you gentlemen are original citizens of this Valley?'' 

''We are not. Does that mean we do not get any?'' The man now was quite furious.

Servant sighed. ''The children are scared so our Lord felt that they should be calmed down. So he sent these snacks from the palace. If you want you can ask him personally for some.'' He then bowed again and turned his back to flabbergasted people.

The husband jumped up and pointed his finger at that man's back yelling loudly at him. ''Insolent!!! Do you know who I am? You will crawl soon under my feet you worm!''

The servant stopped his tracks and turned with ironic smiles. ''Thank you for your donation. And by the way, are you the King? Only she has higher power than him. I am his personal servant and his right hand. You yelling at me is as spitting at his face. Nice fine you shall get then. Have a nice day...'' Turned around and left.

The court officer had sparkly eyes and took his notebook out. ''Screaming and yelling in court 10 gold, insulting an officer of Caledon Valley 100 gold coins. Insulting our City Lord 20 plank hits or 1000 gold coins. Do you want to get hit or to pay?''

Suddenly a voice could be heard from outside booming. ''Who dares?!''

A burly man in a robe came in followed by a beautifully dressed woman. He looked at the court officer with despise and yelled. ''Who dares to beat my son-in-law?''

The court official noted something in his notebook and smiled. ''May I ask who you are?''

The man scoffed. ''Of course, such small officer in this back thrown country town, of course, have no idea who I am. I am Lord General Ernon Parri from Capital city and this is my daughter Sandra and my son in law Cirio Tripol from great clan Salis. You still dare to find him?''

The court official just shrugged. ''I work under Lord Cassian of Caledon Valley. If you want to argue about the rules in this city you need to talk to him. He will be soon here. By the way, you are fined as well 10 gold coins as you yelled as well. For any more yelling cursing and such our city can get only a bonus, we really hope you are wealthy enough for further payments.''

General Parri stood there completely stunned and looked furiously at the judges and the officials, but when he saw that he was ignored he wanted to rush and beat them up. Unfortunately, one of the soldiers stood straight in front of him and started ta him coldly. ''General. City Lord will be here soon. Please voice your sorrow when he arrives.''

He looked at soldier in ager but when he felt suddenly power around the soldier he got calmer and looked around. All the soldiers in the room were power users. ''I will need to report this to our Ministry. Lord Cassian is gathering army a sit seems.''

The soldier just calmly stared at him without any fear. ''Do that, when you go back to the capital. Until then you have to follow the laws of our Caledon Valley. Please be seated next to your people.''

General Parri just huffed and sat down. His daughter sat down next to her husband and send poisonous glances at his ex-wife and children. 

Senna ignored her completely. She let children eat sweets and drink the juices that were sent from the Lord's Palace. Kendra sat behind them and just joined the fun.

Suddenly the door opened and the court official yelled. ''His highness Lord of Caledon Valley and Lady Xara are present.''

The two people entered the courtroom and sat on together in mid between the judges.

''As it is Big Court of Caledon Valley called Open the doors for everyone to hear it. this has something to do with all citizens of our Valley. So they need to hear EVERYTHING!'' He waved his hands and back doors, side doors stood open and soon a crowd of peopel entered.

The court official yelled. ''Silence!!! No one is to speak of now or will be heavily punished.''

Everyone went mute. They knew that teh fines in this court were so unreasonable so they just shut their mouth. 

''Who is filing a lawsuit?'' Asked the court official.

''My name is Senna Kal. I am his ex-wife. We divorced while ago and he got married to the daughter of General Parri. We have three children. My plead is to give me full rights over my children and change their last name.'' She bowed respectfully in front of the court and sat down.

Court officials turned his head towards the other group. ''What do you have to say to your defense?''

General Parri was stunned. ''What do you mean defense?''

''She just asked your son in law to give her full right over children, are you willing?'' 

Cirio Tripol listened to his wife's words and smiled. He didn't stand up or show respect just gave wile smirk. ''Let her have it. My wife just told me she is pregnant. Those children mean anyway anything to me.''

Lord Cassian saw Kendra smiling at Cirio and coughed lightly. ''Wait a minute. They will bring the City Book and do all the paperwork while you are here. Congratulations on this case. New life is always good.''

Official wrote the official transfer of children on Senna Kal. With that document, he gives up all rights to children. He read that for a moment. Just simple document, no hidden meaning so he just signed it with his name and his fingerprint and gave back to a court official.

Lord Cassian got the document and got the City Book at the same time. He changed the names and details in City Book and let both parties sign it. Then he looked at Senna Kal and smiled. 

''You and your children have from this moment on absolutely nothing to do with this person. Children do you want to say goodbye to your father last time.'' He looked at the two girls that shook in mother's hands and a boy who stood up and send a cold glance at his father.

He bowed politely before speaking. ''Your Lordship, you said it yourself. From the moment he gave up his right to be our father, he cut the last tie between us. From now on, please do not relate me to that person, he was never a real father. ''

Lord Cassian rose his eyebrows. ''Oh. Speak. What do you mean by that?''

The boy looked at his motehr and laughed sarcastically. ''Since I know of myself, father always was beating mother up. At first, he brought a bunch of women in our home. When the mother complained, he would beat her black and blue. Later he spent all the money and made motehr come back here.''

The courtroom was silent as he continued. ''But that was not the end. When we came back she found out her family died long ago and he didn't tell her. She inherited a house and store and could actually live good from it. But father pushed her to sell. The problem was she couldn't without your consent. At that time Generals daughter was in town.''

He looked at the woman. ''That person there came one day into our house and literally dragged motehr and us out on street. She told her if she speaks of this she will kill us under her eyes. That is not all. She made my mother drink some kind of poison and we found out that my sisters are fed the same poison as well. If they don't drink antidote potion every month then they will rot and die.'

The woman stood up and patted his head. ''It's enough, son. Let me continue.''

She sighed. ''That person would always find a way to torture me. I have no idea what I did to him, but I really can't continue living like this. Please help me, I plead officially as an original citizen of Caledon Valley.''

Kendra started to smile. And most of the judges started sweating.

Lord Cassian looked coldly at the man that sat there insolently and just smirked coldly at everyone. ''So what will you say in your defense?''

''She is just a stupid villager. I took her to my house and let her live a bit like a rich lady. Then she became too bossy and had to divorce her. About hitting and poisoning, its just a lie, don't believe her.'' he just waved his hand.

''Oh and why should I not?'' Said Lord Cassian while watching at him coldly.

General Parri stood up and pointe finger at Senna. ''You gonna trust words of that commoner? She is just a bitch that had pups with him. Now she got what she wanted, the children, what else she wants? The house, store, money?''

Lord Cassian blinked. ''It was hers on first place, why can't she have it?''

''Wait a moment. My husband was so graceful and let her live properly and even get her kids back. Why are you taking his things away from him? That is not right!'' his wife stood up and started yelling.

''Who are you to raise your voice against my husband?'' Lady Xara was so far quiet, but her voice suddenly boomed in the courtroom scaring the woman.

She turned to her father and pitifully cried. ''Father, they are bullying me. Do something''

''Lord Cassian. Tell your wife...'' he suddenly felt his air leaving his body as he got kicked.

''Lady Xara is the rightful princess of late King and current King's sister. The way you speak of her is quite disrespectful. Fine 10 000 gold. It will be sent to the national treasury after this! And say one more word against her  I will just cut your head and let the sharks eat it..'' Lord Cassian was really furious but then floated slowly back to his seat where Lady Xara tried to calm him down.

Just now General Parri knew that he was in real danger. He paled and sat down trying to breathe. 

He looked at Lord Cassian that gave him an icy stare and had a premonition that something really bad will happen.

Lord Cassian looked at Kendra asking for recognition of his talents but earned just shook of her head. Where did it go wrong? Is there anything more? He looked at lady Xara. ''The real reason she came is that he DIVORCED his wife after hurting her and children.''

He blinked but one of the judges coughed and started asking. ''Cirio Tripol do you know your wrongs. You hit a woman. We nee dto punish you for that.''

He stood up and yelled. ''I didn't. It's my word against hers.''

But suddenly the young boy stood up and slowly came in front of the court and gave him a bright smile.''I was there when you and your friends attacked her with the group. You disgraced her with your words and hits, not only that I personally heard with my own ears that you said that you poisoned her and the girls. Sigh.''

He stood up and laughed. ''And who will believe some beggar child. I have witnessed as well. These three fine men are my witnesses.''

They stood up as well and nodded. ''Yes. All those things that they said happened never did. Lies. All lies.''

''Oh. So this child lies and you tell the truth you want to say? Child, how can you prove that they lie?'' Lord Cassian was in worry. She has to prove the truth.

''It's easy. You remember the power stone I found? I realized it could be used as recoding stone.'' She took a small stone out her hand and put it on the table.

''Ohhh. How does that work?'' This child always has new ideas.

''You put your power inside and everything you want to record will enter this stone. The record can't be changed or cut in pieces. When you plan to see record just again put some power inside and you will see.''

''Can anyone use such stone?'' He was looking at the stone with attention.

''Unfortunately yes. You can't lock the record from other people's eyes. As long power get sin anyone can see what is inside.'' She looked coldly at that man that slumped on his chair.

Lord Cassian stuffed some energy into the stone and it started shining. Suddenly 3D video was showing everything that happened by picture and sound. Cirio Tripol almost fainted when he saw the record.

When record stopped grasps could be heard from everywhere. Lord Cassian looked at him icily and smiled. ''Judges, combining all the evidence here, what is his punishment.''

They stood up and spoke long while in the Courtroom again silence prevailed. The judges came back with heavy expression and looked at those people. ''Sir here is what we wrote, it is your last decision.''

Lord Cassian took the document and started reading. 

''Cirio Tripol is Not the original citizen of Caledon Valley. He got his adding into the City Book because he got married to Senna Kal. But since they are divorced he haS lost his right. Not only that he brought another person that is not a citizen of our city and kicked the original owner out of the house without the permission of City Lord. Next is the poisoning and the maltreating case of his ex-wife and children. It s proven right. And last his disrespectful behavior in the courtroom today. For the first thing, he will be charged with immediate expelling out the Caledon Valley. The second part of her house and everything she owned will be brought back to her. Third as the current wife of the accused has tried to kill the woman and children she has to pay fine to the woman. Last the punishment per laws of the City. If he has no money he will be hit with planks. Senna Kal, do you have anything to ask?'' Lord Cassian looked ta now calm woman that stroke the children's hair with sorrow in her eyes.

She nodded and stood up and bowed respectfully. ''Lord, I just want my children to grow healthy. I give up on money if you could find the antidote for this poison. I just want them to live well.''

Lord Cassian coughed. ''Don't worry about that. As your Lord, I feel ashamed that no one found out about this case before and helped you. The healing will be processed by our main healer. there is no poison that he can't heal, do not worry.''

Suddenly General Parri jumped. ''Wait. I heard about that law. Does that mean he is kicked out and has no right ever to come back here?''

Lord Cassian nodded. ''Of course. Actually, as soon this is done you all will be transported directly out. The law says he and his family. Now you are his family and will be kicked out together with him. You will be banned for a lifetime to enter this place ever.''

He became completely white and fainted. Lucky for him next words were even more devious.

''All belongings will be confiscated and given to Sanna Kal. Part of the money will be taken away for these court costs and punishments. official. How much does this person owe our Caledon valley?''

''After recounting all that happened, he and his wife owe our Caledno Valley 2376 gold coins.'' He gave notebook to Lord Cassian that pouted...

''Sigh I thought it wil be more. Never mind We just have to work more to earn more, right my wife?'' 

But the rest of the people sucked in cold air at his black-bellied thoughts. To little? Sigh...

The case was over, teh people were just dragged on clouds and thrown right out the Caledon Valley shield. 

When Sanna Kal and her children entered the house they realized that it had many riches. She let court officials take most of them as a donation to the orphanage and the Academy. She saved some for their future life. After all, she has a store and soon she will open a bakery, she likes to make bread and pastries.

The healer came day after that and cleared her and children of poison. When he was about to leave she stopped him. ''Uhm, may I ask you for a favour. Can you find out that child's name so I can find him and thank him personally.''

he curiously looked at her. ''You really have no idea who it was?''

She shook her head and by his answer, she got shook to the core, and her son as well that hid in a corner.

''The one that helped you was City Lord's oldest child, Kendra.'' Then he politely bowed and turned around with a smile.

The boy stood there with a frozen face and then smile appeared on his lips and he just whispered... ''Kendra...''
