Rebirth: The Villainous Young Master Doesn't Want to Follow the Script

Inside the courtroom where most of the high-ranking nobles had gathered because of this case and that's because of the sudden demise of the Third Young Master from the Marquis Chevalier household.

They knew who the Third Young Master was. He's none other than the illegitimate child of Marquis Augustus Rynus Chevalier from his second unofficial wife Lady Aryna Asterrix.

The Third Young Master, Ezekiel Zephyr Chevalier.

If this was just another mere Marquis household, they wouldn't be holding this kind of trial since illegitimate children from noble households are nothing to them but b*stards that stained their household's honor.

However, that was not the case for this one.

Since it's an open secret within the Empire, especially, within the noble society that the Marquis Chevalier household, known as the household of war heroes, aren't a Marquis household but rather a Grand Duke household, meaning, the Chevaliers had the right to call for this trial since Ezekiel is the third son and the Third Young Master from the Grand Duke household.

"How is this possible?"

"I heard that the Third Young Master departed from the central region of Stellarus Empire to journey at the academy since the school year would start."

"Out of all the noble children that would journey at the southernmost part of the empire to go back at school, why was the Third Young Master met such tragic fate?"

"He might be an illegitimate child, but the Chevaliers wouldn't neglect such safety for their children as that child still had the Chevalier blood run through his veins."

"Even for someone who couldn't manifest the Chevalier's proud bloodline but for him to…"

"I heard that this trial is requested from the heir apparent, the First Young Master himself."

"Oh my! I just remembered the scandal that the Third Young Master involved where he is the victim and that shameless Marchioness….!"

"Well, from the rumors or I couldn't say that this is a rumor anymore but rather an actual fact that the Marchioness is still under house arrest for an indefinite period of time and was ordered by the Marquis himself."

"The Marchioness should be glad that she wasn't executed on the spot for the shame that she brought upon the Chevalier's name. I can say that this is much more shameful than the Third Young Master's status as a half-blood noble."

"Argh! The thought of me preying on a child makes me sick! Gosh!"

"Wait a moment! But why are we here anyway? Also, I just noticed that some of the spectators are only from the high-ranking noble households, especially for those household who were part of the Aristocratic and Imperial factions are the ones who were here."

"I heard from one of the Royal guards that they had a suspect."

"And who was that?"

"W-well…"

*BANG!

The spectators within the courtroom halted their gossip as they saw four familiar figures enter the courtroom and the audience could feel the tremendous pressure coming from the four new individuals who entered the premises.

Those four figures are none other than the members of the Marquis (Grand Duke) Chevalier household.

The one at the front is none other than the Marquis, Augustus Rynus Chevalier,

Followed by his three children behind him.

The heir apparent to the Marquis noble title, the First Young Master, Altron Zerux Chevalier…

The Knight Captain of the 10th Knight Squad of the Stellarus Arm Forces, the Second Young Master, Count Harrison Wynfred Chevalier…

And the last but not the least….

The only daughter of Marquis Chevalier, the only young lady of the household, Eldest Young Lady Felicity Thoria Chevalier… read-this-on-NovelFire

The four of them entered the courtroom with their usual stoic expression plastered on their faces but from their point of view, it wasn't the normal stoic expression that most of them had seen within those people.

The spectators could see the rage within their eyes, full of hatred and determination to seek the truth.

Not only that, but most of the spectators are also shocked to see that even the most carefree and playful Second Young Master Harrison became nothing but devoid of any emotions right now and most of them feared for their lives if they happened to open their mouths and say something stupid.

The Chevaliers went over to the front side of the courtroom, and they stood there as they waited for the trial to start.

After a minute had passed, the courtroom's door opened, and all of the nobles greeted the Emperor as he entered the vicinity.

"WE GREET THE RULER OF THE STAR EMPIRE, HIS ROYAL MAJESTY, THE EMPEROR!"

The spectators greeted the Emperor as he entered the premises of the courtroom, even the Chevaliers just greeted the Emperor, but the others could tell that those are nothing but just empty words that they said.

If there are other pompous nobles without a brain are within the courtroom, they would call out the Chevaliers for their lack of respect but the nobles who were inside the courtroom are from the higher-class and they knew better than to clashed with the Chevaliers, lest they wanted to land themselves in danger.

Even the Emperor himself, Leirano, could tell how lackluster they were when they greeted him, but he didn't call them out since that wasn't that important and there is much more that needs to be addressed within this case.

As the Emperor sat on his throne, and when everything had been settled then, the Emperor's loud voice resonates within the courtroom.

"NOW, LET THE CRIMINAL IN CHARGE ENTERED THE COURTROOM!"

After the Emperor spoke those words, the door of the courtroom opened once again and all of them looked at the person or much rather, the criminal in charge entered the premises with the Royal knights escorted that person all the way at the center of the courtroom.

Most of the spectators grasped upon they saw the familiar face of their Crown Prince enter with the Royal knights and the Crown Prince calmly entered the premises and was ordered to stand at the center of the courtroom.

"The Crown Prince?!"

"How is this possible?!"

"Is there some kind of mistake here or something?!"

More and more gossips circulates within the courtroom and the Chevaliers, especially, the First Young Master Altron tried his best to restrained himself as he glared at the Crown Prince who stood at the center of the courtroom as the criminal in charge of this case.

"SILENCE!"
