"Daddy... You... Traitor..."
This was another time Rin learned why the world is considered a cold place, anyone can cut off their relationship with one another just for survival
Klaus was also doing something similar here, the cute puppy eyes of Rin were ignored by cold hearted Klaus again and again and again
If the nobles have seen it they would have various misunderstandings about the situation with Brahm Duchy by now
"Lord! The Count Greenriver has returned!"
Suddenly Klaus was alerted by a knight that just entered the room where Klaus was enjoying his time
Klaus heard him and nodded, he looked at Rin and said
"Let's play again next time kiddo, why don't you play with Ivory for now?"
As Klaus said that Ivory also appeared behind Rin with a bright look over her face, Rin looked back and muttered
"Ivory hears more of daddy's words than mine, she is my subordinate or daddy's?"
Klaus heard the little one talk to herself and with a dry smile on his face he left the room
"Then see you later kiddo..."
Ashia and Zoya also followed Klaus out, they arrived back at the doors of the hall where all the nobles had gathered
Orion was already in front of the doors, as Klaus arrived there he opened the doors himself
Klaus nodded with smile, Orion also seemed to have little smile over his face and everyone walked inside the hall
The table and the chairs had been removed from the place and there was only one sofa for only Klaus to sit in front of the window
Klaus noticed everyone from last time was already there, they were standing in the sidelines like good subordinates, the brown haired siblings, Sharon and Tessa were standing near Klaus seat
And now the Count Greenriver was also standing on the other side of the siblings along with the same son he had and the wife who seemed not much different from ladies who have to go as far as plastic surgery to hide the trashy looks on face
She was literally wearing absurd amounts of make up to show herself here
As Klaus took the first step inside the hall everyone noticed him and greeted him with gestures just like what a noble does in such places
The first child of Greenriver family who no longer had any hands felt shivers as Klaus entered the place
There was just a smile on the face of Count Greenriver's wife but she was obviously hiding her anger and discomfort
Klaus went to his seat and Zoya and Ashia stood besides Klaus's seat with neutral look over their faces
Orion was also standing near Klaus with few papers on his hands
"I'm quite surprised that you managed to come back here on time Count Greenriver, I would love to have the carriage driver of yours who managed to send you back here within the day
If I'm not wrong your County is 64 kilo meters away from here right, you are quite good..."
Klaus complimented Count Greenriver but his cold tone was telling other emotions from his words
Klaus's gaze moved to Count Greenriver's wife and he continued with his cold words again
"Your driver must be quite the jewel seriously to think your wife still has her make up on her face..."
As Klaus said that there was change in expression on Count Greenriver's wife but his first son seemed to be getting more and more nervous as time continued
Klaus moved his gaze to siblings and a grin appeared over his face and he said "You two don't need to stand like that, just sit here..."
With Klaus's words Orion took out another sofa for the siblings to sit there too, the siblings looked nervous to sit in presence of their so called family
Klaus gave them a clean smile and with that both siblings sat at their seats too, although they were still nervous the seats felt comfortable
'The Greenriver County... The family is filled with quite the canon folders for Reus to shine, they did things like digging their own graves so of course I don't expect much changes from here too...'
Klaus had already prepared the calculations on his mind, his confidence was absolute that they are going to do something stupid in few minutes and things happened exactly as Klaus expected
"Hey you maid girl, can't you hear Duke, where is our seats, we came here in rush from our territory can't we even take seats?"
The Count Greenriver's wife said these words with the look of arrogance on her face, she seemed quite confident saying those words
[As expected host, your luck is off the charts, destiny really bends to your will, honestly it's most badass thing that you have!]
Apollo praised Klaus with a bright look over his face, this insult was in accordance to Klaus's calculations
But hearing that insult there was now a pin drop silence in the hall, the bloods of every being present there went cold as ice and they even forgot the breathe for few seconds
The eyes of Klaus, Orion and Zoya suddenly started shining with cold lights
'The things are indeed under my calculations but I didn't expected her to insult Ashia of all peoples present here... This really triggers by rage...'
Ashia had no change in her emotions even after getting insulted, the wife of Count Greenriver was about to say more but next moment Klaus's words once again dropped the temperature of room even lower
"Count Greenriver... Did you forget to tell your wife the situation in here?"
Klaus was absolutely cold at that moment, the Count Greenriver looked seriously troubled now
"I-i, we were in hurry so,-the situation- I forgot... That-I.."
Count was absolutely trembling right now, his first wife and the first son looked confused but next Klaus signalled Orion
"I will state the situation that has been going on right now for the ones who don't know
Lord wants to judge the Count Greenriver and his first wife for the troubles they have caused for the Sharon Greenriver and Tessa Greenriver and their mother according to the laws of the Empire!"
As those words fell a deep look surprise and sudden sense of danger appeared in eyes of Count Greenriver's first wife and son
Klaus turned to them and asked "Why don't I see the mother of Sharon and Tessa here?"
"Sh-she is outside because she wanted to-"
Count Greenriver's wife tried to make excuses but Klaus's cold words cut her off in middle of her words
"I hate hearing these lies again and again..."
The doors of hall opened and next moment a blonde lady entered the place, she didn't had a noble look or presence but she seemed innocent and kind type woman
She arrived near the Sharon and Tessa and reported herself to Klaus's presence
"I'm Alma, the mother of Sharon and Tessa..."
Klaus nodded and moved his head towards the Count's first wife again
"Bring the commanders of second, third and fourth beastman order here"
Ashia nodded and next the place with a calm look over her face and as soon as she exited the hall a sound of something breaking was heard from outside of hall
And on the inside of hall Zoya was standing right in front of the Countess Greenriver while grabbing her by collar and look of a demon on her face
Klaus also looked extremely angry right now and next moment Zoya shouted
"What focking right do you have to shout at the head maid of the Brahm Duchy! The fuok do they think this place is!?! Ha!?"
Countess right now was literally grabbed in air and with no ability to resist there she felt like she will die within seconds now
"You are so focking lucky here you piece of shit... Thank God you met 'the Duke Brahm' here if you have done this arrogance in front of any other person you would have recieved most gruesome death possible!!!"
Klaus's words created another level of pressure over the whole hall, the Orion had shielded others in the hall with magic but even then the siblings and their mother could sense the realm of strength Klaus had here
'I can't sense even beginning of his strength let alone the limits...'
'I'm dead! I'm dead corpses for sure!!!'
'I will do a lot of donations if I made it out alive today!!!'
'He is strong!!! Stronger than any being I ever saw!!!'
Each being present there was praying for his life even when they were not even focused on the pressure and Orion protecting them with barrier
But the main Greenriver Family, the Count, Countess and their son, they were literally on verge of insanity here
Their minds have gone insane and various nerves and popped out from their brains and body
Klaus suddenly sensed the beings outside of room just like Zoya and they returned their own positions again
The place looked like nothing ever happened to normal beings and next moment the doors of the hall opened with Ashia walking inside with a simple look on face
