The Ordinary Sorcerer's Fun Otherworld Villain Play - Chapter 32 - Trial Proceedings

How did it come to this?

“In this divine trial, protests by the defendant are not considered at all! Only the result from one corner of the 7 Great Gods—the god of judgment and justice, Prava Justia’s mirror—is truth!”

Before my eyes, some old guy wearing gorgeous clothes was shouting.

An amazingly gorgeous space—a cathedral I’d come to once before.

Expensive-looking goddess statues… 7 of them, plus 1 statue without a head.

Hohe~ how foreign-like.

“Comrades of the church gathered here! Let’s speak now of the tragedy that occurred yesterday!! The reincarnator heroes dispatched by the gods! The evil one’s plot that occurred on their proud and auspicious departure day! And the church’s justice that saw through that plot!”

Hmm, what should I do?

This morning, the moment I woke up, I was already captured before I knew it.

My arms and legs were bound by weird lock-like things and I couldn’t move.

In this kind of pattern, it’s that, right? My curse power is probably…

“Look at that homeless guy… What a miserable figure.”

“Apparently after killing Grelod, who was the homeless organizer, he was tilling the field.”

“Isn’t he possessed by a demon? He’s not normal. Those eyes…”

Ah, I can use curse power. Then—

—Should I kill them?

“””””——!!??”””””””

“—!? He-hey! The homeless guy has a magic-sealing lock fitted, right?”

“Yes, of course. Even if he’s G-rank trash, he’s Gifted. We can’t let there be any chance…”

“Th-then that’s good. Was it my imagination…?”

No, no, wait, wait.

Mass slaughter of everyone was too hasty a judgment.

There were some familiar faces too.

“””””………..”””””

Gathered in audience seat-like places looking down at me—

My classmates.

Hey hey, everyone’s dressed up in fantasy fashion.

Meanwhile, I’m still in tattered cloth clothes. How embarrassing.

“Hey… Did that guy really do that to us?”

“Apparently that guy also brainwashed Snow-sama.”

“He was trying to offer us to the death goddess…”

“Hey, that homeless guy, before… we many times…”

“As expected, he was a weird guy.”

“Shit, what a ridiculous guy. I should have quickly…”

I was being badmouthed incredibly.

Wait, is this villain-like in a sense?

“Silence. From now on, I’ll speak of that one’s committed sins. First: defendant Kasutani Takihito, yesterday, kidnapped and abducted the transfer heroes who were attending the send-off ceremony before magic academy enrollment at this cathedral by some method.”

‘That is correct.’

A purple mirror.

A figure reflected in it spoke.

“Next: Kasutani Takihito, after that, constructed a magic barrier by some method at Grelod Majerm’s farm, then murdered Grelod Majerm within the barrier. No mistake, correct?”

‘That is correct.’

What is this…?

What am I being shown?

Co-could this shitty old man and weird mirror’s shit conversation really be progressing the trial?

No, even in this caste shit otherworld with no ethics, surely not such—

‘Therefore, death penalty.’

What a shit trial.
