Chapter 2019 Triple Threat (Part 1)

"If you are incapable of separating your personal opinion from the law, then you are unfit to be a Constable. The next time any of you crosses that line, I'll have your badges."

"But, Archon Ernas!" Vylka said in outrage. "She's an oath breaker. She deserted our country and relinquished her duty when we needed her the most and for what? To satisfy her lust towards a filthy animal.

"Someone incapable of controlling their base urges doesn't deserve to be here! A traitor wearing a badge is an insult to all those who sacrificed their lives in order to uphold the law."

"Interesting point." Jirni steepled her fingers, drumming them against each other. "You have managed to insult with a single phrase the forefather of the Kingdom, Valeron, Archmage Marth, and my own daughter."

She used the same tone for the three names but her brows furrowed when she spoke the last, emphasizing her annoyance.

"Valeron too betrayed his country to create his own and ended up marrying a Griffon. I never realized that he was just a traitorous degenerate. I should probably share this revelation with the Royal family who still carries their blood." Jirni's voice oozed sarcasm.

"Marth too doesn't fare much better since, based on what you say, he likes humping a rose bush."

"That's not what I meant. I-" The young Constable turned pale and tried to explain her reasons, but Jirni ignored her.

"Even if everything you said was true, it doesn't change the fact that Kamila Yehval is here due to a deal bearing the signature of our King and Queen. Your open violation of its terms is an act of high treason.

"If you have any objections to how the Crown operates, you are free to bring out the matter during your trial for insubordination." Jirni pointed her middle and forefinger at Vylka, prompting the Royal Guards to arrest her.

They moved in the blink of an eye, locking her arms behind her back and forcing her to kneel as they took away all the magical tools in her possession.

The Archon stripped Vylka of her insignia and took her badge before requesting a new aide. The news spread like wildfire, ensuring Jirni that the rest of the officers would keep their eyes low and their mouths shut.

During her first day back on the job, Kamila spent most of her time in the office but her day was far from uneventful and quite unpleasant. Her colleagues moved their desks away from hers and refused to speak with Kamila unless they had to.

Even when they did, their voice was filled with spite and they looked at her like someone who should be behind bars. Every time she left her desk, she would find a dead rat in one of its drawers.

The first time it happened she freaked out. The second time she got angry because no one seemed to have seen anything. After the fourth time, however, sadness and hopelessness replaced rage.

When at the end of her shift she walked through the Gate of the Heavenly Plume tribe, she found Lith waiting for her as promised.

Kamila ran into his arms, falling apart the moment the dimensional passage closed and she was certain that no one would witness how hurt she was. Freeᴡebnovel.cᴏm

"I knew that only in fairy tales do people gloss over the consequences of what the main characters do out of love, but I still didn't expect the situation to be so bad." She said amid sobs.

"I dreamed for so long to go back to my job only to find an alien place filled with people who don't want me to be there."
