Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!
Chapter 225: What Great Official Authority

Chapter 225: Chapter 225: What Great Official Authority

Lowering the hand that he had used to clean out his ear, Yang Yu looked at Yu Jiesi quite seriously, "You say it doesn’t look like a quarrel at all, so tell me, what about it doesn’t resemble a quarrel?"

"Don’t treat us like we’re blind."

Yu Jiesi did his best to keep his composure, but irritation still seeped through his voice,

"If it were just a quarrel, that giant wolf would certainly not have mercilessly shattered your shield. If it were just an ordinary argument, the wolf would not have destroyed the villa nor climbed onto the roof to howl ...

Your explanation is full of holes. Moreover, there are so many times when one could argue, so why choose to argue in the early morning? It’s completely illogical!"

Faced with the aggressive Yu Jiesi, Yang Yu helplessly spread his hands with a smile, "Since when does arguing need to adhere to strict logic? A quarrel is an outburst of accumulated resentment by both parties without regard for place or occasion. Before you argue, do you consider the time, worrying whether someone might overhear your shouting?

Frankly speaking, if you’re truly angry, only a fool would do that. We would just speak our minds right away.

Therefore, there’s no issue with arguing at this time. As for Lot climbing onto the villa to howl, it’s a habit of their kin. Whenever they decide to duel someone, they leap to the highest point and declare war with a long howl."

"Enough, I don’t want to hear your sophistry! I saw it clearly at the time; that giant wolf pounced with killing intent towards both you and its master. We absolutely cannot allow such a dangerous demon to remain in the residential area."

Yu Jiesi could not contain his fury, and he was too exasperated to continue wasting words with Yang Yu. Turning to Ying Luo, he posed a question,

"Miss Ying Luo, please think it over carefully. Are you truly willing to keep a demon by your side that intends to harm you?"

Ying Luo clenched her hands and said nothing, unsure of what to do.

She definitely did not want the Law Enforcement Team to take Lotcar away, but with Yu Jiesi having gone this far, she had no room to retort.

Even if she were to forcefully argue that she still wanted to be with Lotcar, she would surely be accused of having her mind bewitched by the demon.

"Heh heh." Just as Ying Luo found herself in a dilemma, Yang Yu scoffed, "Yu Jiesi, you keep saying that you personally saw the wolf pounce toward Ying Luo. Now let me ask you, exactly where and when, and by what means did you witness this?"

Hearing Yang Yu’s voice made Yu Jiesi unbearably irritable, "I’m under no obligation to tell you!"

"No obligation to tell me?"

Yang Yu couldn’t help but laugh out loud. All eyes nearby immediately turned to him, and then he loudly proclaimed for all present to hear,

"In fact, you didn’t see anything, did you? You’re simply looking for an excuse to arrest Lotcar! It’s surprising how petty the Library Enforcement Team can be, trying to secretly take someone’s demon without revealing the full context—all under the guise of authority."

At these words, fury stretched from Yu Jiesi’s brows to his temples, and his eyes seemed to spew fire. He would never allow anyone to trample over the dignity of the Library Enforcement Team.

"We from the Law Enforcement Team always adhere to the principles of fairness and justice. Since you want to die with a clear understanding, I’ll let you die with a clear understanding!"

He stretched out his finger, pointing at a building in the distance,

"Just now, that is where we saw everything that happened here, including the wolf destroying the entire villa. Our residual traces of Magic Power are right over there. If you don’t believe it, go and check! What do you say now? Do you still want to argue?"

As Yu Jiesi looked triumphantly at Yang Yu, he saw only Yang Yu’s mocking, mischievous smirk. Yu Jiesi suddenly realized something and hurriedly tried to backtrack, but it was already too late,

"Roar—roar— You saw everything with your own eyes, you say? That’s indeed a very interesting twist. It means that you knew from the break of dawn that such an incident would certainly occur here. You lay in wait, and only when things became irreversible did you step in to intervene and, in due course, take the demon away."

Yu Jiesi hastily tried to argue, but he realized that Yang Yu was looking at him with deep scorn, and Yang Yu’s words did not cease,

"Clearly, you had the chance to prevent such an event but chose to wait until after it unfolded to take action, and only after all the crimes had been committed did you ’righteously and openly’ proceed with the arrest.

Just because we are Monster Tamers, living together with demons at All Things Library, you completely discriminate against us and deliberately hinder us— is this your so-called true fairness and justice?

That’s downright ridiculous!"

Yang Yu’s relentless attack was like a flood that capsized Yu Jiesi’s small boat. He had never imagined that anyone would dare to confront the Library Enforcement Team this way.

What was happening now was as bewildering to Yu Jiesi as a pig climbing a tree; it totally overturned his perception.

What’s more terrifying, he did not know how to counter Yang Yu’s argument, so he could only stand firm to continue his mission.

"No matter what, this time, the demon Lotcar has violated the regulations of the Monster Tamer’s special measures law, and I am determined to take it away today!"

Yang Yu’s eyes blazed, "You say it violated the law, but I don’t understand, which specific regulation did it break?"

Confronted with Yang Yu’s questioning, Yu Jiesi finally ran out of patience and bellowed,

"How many times do I have to say this before you’re satisfied! Didn’t I tell you at the beginning? The Monster Tamer did not promptly stop the demon from damaging public property, thus violating the regulations. We’re just following the rules!"

"Public property?" Yang Yu scoffed again, "Which of your eyes saw it wreck public property? Take a good look! See what damage it actually did!"

Following the direction pointed out by Yang Yu, Yu Jiesi was left speechless. The only things destroyed by Lotcar were Ying Luo’s villa, the surrounding wall, and Yang Yu’s Shield—beyond that, nothing else was damaged.

"See clearly now? What damage to public property? Was it not just the destruction of my shield and Miss Ying Luo’s villa? You use this law to arrest it, that is truly ludicrous."

What exactly was going on? Besides Ying Luo’s villa, nothing else was damaged... Wait a minute; with his nimble skills, he could have easily avoided the wolf’s Attack at that time, so why did he still block the wolf’s Assault with his shield?

Yu Jiesi’s brows furrowed slightly, sensing that things were getting more complicated. It seemed as though Yang Yu had long predicted their plan, deliberately leading Lotcar to target Ying Luo’s villa, not giving them any grounds to stand on.
