After shutting his eyes, James fell asleep unknowingly.
However, he was soon awakened by hunger. He would then fall asleep again.
This repeated multiple times.
Finally, he could hear the sound of footsteps.
Fully-armed men from the Red Flame army dragged James out of his cell.
James could finally see the sunlight. Basking in its warmth, James relished the short-lived experience.
Many convoys were at the prison gates.
The Emperor, dressed in his Red Flame robe, got off one of the convoys and approached James.
Seeing the pathetic state James was in, the Emperor gloated, “Did you not have a good night’s sleep last night?”
James glanced at the Emperor.
He wanted to speak. However, he did not have the strength to do so.
He would surely collapse to the ground if not for the men supporting him.
“Bring him to the courthouse.”
“Understood.”
James was shoved into the convoy.
The courthouse was a place of trial for high-ranking officials of Sol. It was mostly deserted all year long.
However, there was currently a crowd outside the courthouse. Soleans from all over the country were gathered here. Even foreign reporters were present.
There were also many familiar figures present.
Thea, Quincy, Xara, Tiara, and Cynthia were all there.
Some who were acquainted with James were also there.
A convoy approached the courthouse, and all cameras were directed toward the approaching vehicle.
“Ladies and gentlemen, it’s currently eight in the morning. This is the courthouse in the Capital. We’re here today to witness the trial of James, the Black Dragon, one of the most powerful figures in the nation.”
