Chapter 721: Chapter 425: The Rectification Begins_3

"This matter is simple," Owen Bertram said, "Gather all your subordinates into the two revered Lord groups. The Prescott Group is under the jurisdiction of the revered Lord Group, not far apart, and no problems will arise in the short term. I will accompany you in inspecting the two revered Lord groups."

Benjamin Larkin became increasingly confused and simply asked, "Sir, may I ask what the purpose of doing this is?"

Owen Bertram did not answer but stared at Benjamin Larkin and said coldly, "I can guess the little calculation in Lord Larkin’s mind. Although you have come to see me, deep down you probably don’t have faith in me.

You want to hedge your bets, leaning to whichever side gains the upper hand."

How could Benjamin Larkin admit it? He immediately said, "I have been wronged, sir. Lord Larkin is the Commander of the East Prison Town Comfort Office, and I am absolutely loyal to him. I will unreservedly execute all of his orders."

"Heh heh," Owen Bertram sneered and asked, "So why put up various obstacles when I want to inspect your subordinates?"

For a moment, Benjamin Larkin didn’t know how to respond, but Owen Bertram didn’t give him the chance to quibble, continuing, "Now there are only you and me in this Main Hall. Let’s be open and candid with each other and exchange our thoughts. If you don’t think I can deal with the Ronald Clan, or you think there’s something wrong with my handling, feel free to say it. I will not blame you.

This is the promise of the Sixth Great Realm!"

Cold sweat poured down Benjamin Larkin’s forehead, but he couldn’t change his nature. Born as a "sly fox", he didn’t trust anyone inherently.

"I’m terrified, sir. You are the Sixth Great Realm, and everything you do must have profound implications that a simple soldier like me cannot fully understand. Whatever you want to do, I will support you wholeheartedly and dare not interfere."

Owen Bertram shook his head inwardly; this fellow’s level could only reach so far. Just now was his last chance, and even though he said the words "the promise of the Sixth Great Realm", he still refused to tell the truth. Since that was the case, Lord Owen wouldn’t be lenient and would take this opportunity to shatter all the old remnants of the East Prison Town Comfort Office!

He went along with Benjamin Larkin’s words, saying, "Since you support me wholeheartedly, the trial of the East Prison Town Comfort Office will start with you!"

Benjamin Larkin was shocked, "Trial of the East Prison Town Comfort Office?"

Lord Owen answered him with actions. The second authority in the domain, "judgment", descended. This authority came from the "Tracing Mirror" and was related to the Netherworld, but the trial was not about the sinful heart but about crimes. It was a bit more forgiving than the Netherworld.

Benjamin Larkin suddenly felt his soul being lifted, and he looked like an onlooker, watching himself kneeling beside Lord Owen. His life turned into a rapidly played scene of light and shadows.

Various evil deeds from his life floated out of the light and shadow, coalescing into a series of crimes floating above his head.

At the same time, his meritorious deeds and virtues also coalesced into shining golden characters, standing opposite to those crimes.

During the trial, thunderbolts continually exploded in his ears, making Benjamin Larkin tremble in fear, never having felt such terror in his life!

When it finally ended, Benjamin Larkin’s soul returned to his body automatically. He shivered violently and gazed at Lord Owen with frightened eyes.

Owen Bertram pointed at the crimes and virtues floating above his head, which began to cancel each other out. The black crimes and golden virtues collided and disappeared. Benjamin Larkin couldn’t help but tremble, as the black crimes clearly outnumbered the virtues.

In the end, there were still three crimes remaining, while the virtues were completely exhausted!

Benjamin Larkin felt cold all over and bowed deeply, "Sir, please forgive me—"

Owen Bertram stared at the three crimes and snorted coldly, "Although this authority is exercised by me, your crimes are not controlled by me—they are your own doing! Or do you expect me to go back to your past and prevent your evil deeds?"

The three crimes swooped into Benjamin Larkin’s body and turned into three black Chain Locks, entwining his soul.

Owen Bertram’s voice echoed again, "Strive for redemption. Once you atone for your crimes, these bonds will naturally dissipate."

This was the inherent punishment of the "judgment" authority. Benjamin Larkin’s sins were not grievous enough for death, otherwise "judgment" would have taken his life directly!

Benjamin Larkin felt that while the three Chain Locks did not restrict his cultivation, they limited his "intentions"! This prevented him from doing certain things and forced him into others.

From now on, Benjamin Larkin had become a "debtor", with no freedom until he had paid off his crimes!

After a moment of panic, Benjamin Larkin accepted this reality, and even felt a little relief: it was fortunate that he had been cautious and did not thoroughly collude with Lin Ronald and his group. Otherwise, he might have had no chance for redemption under today’s "judgment".

Then he suddenly understood everything and exclaimed in surprise, "Sir... Is the Second Medal the removal of this judgment authority? This is your confidence in fully controlling the entire East Prison Town Comfort Office and confronting the Ronald Clan!"

Owen Bertram had already withdrawn his domain and replied indifferently, "So when I say that you are not up to the level, lack vision, and have an inflexible temperament, do you agree?"

Benjamin Larkin had already understood what the lord would do next, and after careful calculation, he realized that the lord was already in an invincible position. He heaved a sigh and said with emotion, "I wholeheartedly admit it!"
