Chapter 243: No Such Demon Found! Xiyah Might Be Dark Magic Dragonkin Lance!
The leading demoness handed back the Judgment Token to Lance.
They were security officers responsible for the safety of Paradise City, and had no right to detain a Judge, let alone one who was also a Judge from the Judgment Royal Court.
In the past, this Dragonborn Royal Court Judge even had the authority to enlist their help to pursue criminals.
Nowadays, although the Royal Court Judge still held this authority, whether the security officers from the several royal families were willing to assist was another matter entirely.
Hmm, as security officers, they were willing to assist the Dragonborn Judge before them.
"Sir Sia, your Judgment Royal Court token is fine, with name and number intact. Should you need our assistance in pursuing criminals, please give your orders."
"Take those two back for interrogation and torture them severely. Charge: attacking a Royal Court Judge, obstructing a Royal Court Judge while carrying out duties."
"Yes."
The leading demoness glanced at her companions, and two low-ranking members of The Blood Clan with swollen faces were taken away by two uniformed female demonesses.
The blood clan girl behind the bar watched silently.
Royal Court Judge...
When she was young, she knew a very powerful Royal Court Judge who was her sister's classmate, and later, due to his good performance and quick learning, he leaped grades repeatedly and soon became a substitute teacher.
Her sister had a good relationship with him, and occasionally brought him back to the royal court. After a while, she gradually got to know that Royal Court Judge.
At their first meeting, the Royal Court Judge gave her a sweet lollipop.
Latter on, as they met more frequently, he occasionally tutored her, and when faced with something unfamiliar, he would ask her for advice humbly, without belittling her for her age...
It's a pity he was of the Dark Magic Dragonfolk, with a dragon's head on a human's body, that ferocious dragon face...affected his appearance.
In the eyes of the royal family, Black Magic Dragonfolk could become friends, partners, or subordinates to the royal family, but could never become a member of it.
If Black Magic Dragonfolk had the appearance of this Dragonborn, there would probably be many nobles competing for him.
Lance—
The name of that Dark Magic Dragonkin from back then, a name from the distant past.
The Blood Clan girl's gaze fell upon the lead female demoness security officer.
Come to think of it, the first demoness princess to express disdain for Dark Magic Dragonkin Lance was one of those princesses.
She criticized Lance's dragon maw for being too large, his fangs too numerous, even incapable of sweet talk...
Suitable to be her follower, but not fit to be a lover.
Ironically, as she said these words, Dark Magic Dragonkin Lance happened to overhear them...
And the result was...
She became the first to be deceived by the flattery of Dark Magic Dragonkin Lance... the royal of the demoness who taught Lance the Forbidden Magic Curse...
Thinking of that demoness princess, she couldn't help but feel a bit amused...
There were many ways to insult a demoness, but Dark Magic Dragonkin Lance chose the most excessive method to humiliate that princess.
Even though he was close to seducing the demoness princess with smooth talk, he merely tricked her into giving him the Forbidden Curse of the demoness royal family...
For the demoness princess, that was a disgrace of monumental proportions.
In the eyes of the Dark Magic Dragonkin, her allure wasn't even comparable to a Forbidden Magic Curse...
"May I see your Judgment Royal Court token?"
Lance handed the token he held to the Blood Clan girl. He had not only the Judge's token but also the Brocade Guards' token...
Having these two tokens wasn't because he had foreseen anything, but simply because he wanted to hold two positions that came with benefits.
Being the strongest Judge of the Judgment Court, was it too much to look out for his own welfare?
"Have you ever met the strongest Judge of the Judgment Court?"
"I have."
The Blood Clan girl handed the token back to Lance, "Your identity token is fine. I didn't expect you to look so young when you're actually quite old. But considering the number on your token, it's normal that you've met the strongest Judge.
If you hadn't met him... that would mean there's a problem with you."
"You're quite astute, good material for a Judge. Are you interested in joining the Judgment Court?"
"Forget it, the Judgment Court isn't that appealing now. If they are willing to assist you in pursuing a criminal, it's because they covet your body.
Not because of your identity or power, and that is something you should be clear on."
???
That's something he was genuinely unaware of.
Have the Judges of the Judgment Court really fallen this far?
To the point where not even the security officers from various cities could be mobilized?
It had been a long time since he had been to The Abyss, and he wasn't very familiar with the current situation.
"Miss Tiji, how could you slander us like that?"
"If this Judge Sia invites you to his room tonight to show you the criminals' files, would you go?"

"Of course, it's part of official duties."
"Can you please...show a bit of restraint?"
The four uniformed demoness security officers had somehow gathered by Lance's side, the tails of the demonesses swishing about excitedly.
"I don't need your assistance for now. I will be leaving the city soon to meet some Demon Kings."
"Then we really can't be of help to Judge Sia."
The lead demoness security officer showed a hint of regret on her face. In the Land of Chaos and Disorder, Demon Kings did whatever they pleased, and the authority of security officers couldn't intimidate them. On the contrary, it might even provoke their desire to conquer.
"Judge Sia, we will take our leave then."
"Hmm."
The leading demoness walked away with her companions.
Once outside, they had to remind the shop owners not to covet this esteemed Judge, lest they really knock him out, take him home, and defile him...
