Without a doubt, Ryan was really angry.
It was not only because the three mages had incited the guards, but also because they had exploited the Sarmaniya family in the past. They had been unscrupulous and unscrupulous like vermin.
This made Rene very disgusted.
"Young Master Ryan, I don't understand what you mean.”
Ness 'expression changed and he stepped back. He was frightened by Rene's coldness.
The current Rennes had not only reached the peak of the fifth step, but he had also inherited the Green Scaled Eagle's pressure. That was an existence comparable to a giant dragon, and its pressure was a great deterrent to a third step mage.
Currently, the Green Scaled Eagle was still in its infancy, and its pressure was not strong enough. It could only suppress a 3rd rank mage. If it was a full-fledged peak Saint-level mage, its pressure would be able to suppress even a powerhouse of the 7th or 8th rank, rendering them unable to resist.
"You don't understand? Let me read it to you!"
Rennes sneered and raised the sheepskin scroll in his hand. His eyes were filled with coldness as he began to read.
"Wizard Ness, two years ago, you used the excuse of breaking through to the next level to privately misappropriate a hundred thousand gold coins from the clan…"
"A year ago, in the name of your family, you forcefully seized the land of three rich people and occupied their assets.”
" A year ago, you stole three Tier 5 magic scrolls from the clan. Half a year ago, you used the same method to steal a Tier 6 magic staff from the clan…"
Every time Rene recited something, Wizard Ness 'face would turn a shade paler, and his eyes would be filled with fear.
The other two mages were not any better. Their legs went weak and they felt dizzy.
They were finished.
"As for the two of you, although your corruption is not as serious as Ness, the total amount is still hundreds of thousands of gold coins.”
Rennes glanced at the three of them and said coldly.
"You're really something. In just three years, you've squeezed more than a million gold coins from your families. A mere mage of the second or third rank is really audacious!”
This was close to a million gold coins.
Even a mage of the eighth step could be hired for more than ten years, let alone a mage of the second or third step. Such a huge asset had all been swallowed by these three people.
Just thinking about it made Rennes have the urge to kill someone.
If this money was given to him, he could completely nurture the Green Scaled Eagle to maturity. How could this kind of value be compared to these few ants in front of him?
"Ness, you bastards. Master and Madam have always treated you well and didn't mind your low strength at all. How dare you do such a thing?”The Type 5 Guard Captain was so angry that his body was trembling, and he shouted in anger. A dazzling and sharp light surged from his body, carrying a sharp aura.
Battle Aura.
Rennes's expression did not change when he saw the dazzling radiance, but his heart was moved. He understood that it was one of the two major systems of this world.
The power of battle energy.
Of course, this wasn't the kind of warrior energy that could turn into a horse.
A group of guards and servants loyal to the Sarmaniya family were also indignant. They wished they could tear the three mages apart.
"Young Master Rennes, even if you're dissatisfied with us, you can't create such a thing to slander us. We're loyal to the family and would never do such a thing.”Wizard Ness put on a tough front, looking as if he was innocent.
However, their pale faces and eyes filled with fear exposed them completely.
Moreover-
"Slander? Even if the data was brought to the court of the Imperium, it would be 100% true. Where did the slander come from? You don't have the right to be slandered by me, let alone!”Rene waved the parchment scroll in his hand and suddenly took a step forward as he shouted sternly.
"I'm the grand duke of the empire, the city lord of Chaos City, personally conferred by His Majesty Andrew. Would he slander a low-level mage like you?”
"Ridiculous!"
A powerful aura surged out, carrying a voice that was like the might of the heavens, suppressing the group of people until they were endlessly shocked.
"Rita, what is the crime of embezzling your master's assets according to the laws of the empire?”Rene asked Rita with a dignified voice as his body was filled with a powerful aura.
"If the corruption is true, the minimum sentence is three years in prison. If the amount is large, more than 1,000 gold coins, and the owner is a noble, you have the right to kill him directly.”Rita's eyes flashed with a strange light as she looked at Rennes, who was showing off his might. She seemed to be a little surprised and then smiled slightly.
"As a guard, you gathered a crowd to cause trouble and coerce Master when Master did not mistreat you. What crime should you commit?”Rennes asked again.
"According to the 324th law of the Empire, if a subordinate deceives a superior, the master has the right to take him down, strip him of his civilian status, and demote him to a slave. If they resisted, they could be killed on the spot without having to bear any legal responsibility.”As the head maid, not only was Rita capable, but she also knew all kinds of industries and even the laws of the empire like the back of her hand.
"According to the contract, if the master doesn't reprimand the servants or guards who force the master to cancel the contract, they will have to pay 2000 gold coins.”
2000 gold coins was about double the salary of an ordinary guard for 50 years. This was one of the contents of the contract.
These conditions were not harsh. If it were any other noble, they would have suppressed or even killed these guards on the spot.
If anyone dares to offend their superiors, their master has the right to kill them directly.
Only the Sarmaniya family would be so merciful.
"Young…Young Master, we won't dare!”
"Young Master, I don't want to cancel the contract. Please let me go!”
"Young Master, I beg you!"
The group of guards panicked. When they found out that they needed to pay 2000 gold coins to cancel the contract, they were all dumbfounded.
2000 gold coins was the amount of money they could only earn after working for a lifetime. How could they afford to lose it?
Not to mention, with their behavior of gathering people to cause trouble and coercing their masters, Ryan could even strip them of their status as civilians and demote them to slaves.
This was the reason for their fear.
