Chapter 41 - The trial of Marcus Dimitri.

Meanwhile in Lúa-Dark, inside Castle Stoker, the master Omega Marcus Dimitri had been called by King Vlad to the war auditorium, arrived without saying anything and adjusting his long straight dark hair, which stuck to his face as if they were holding him, sat down to know the reason for his call.

-Master Omega Marcus Dimitri, has been called to clarify his responsibility in the facts denounced by the Princess, who declares that you abandoned his squadron in full combat, in the altercation with Daro's the millennial, where the master's Omega Corzo Brigante and Yamil Angen were injured; How do you plead charges?

King Vlad asks the defendant in that kind of court martial, which took place in the war auditorium of Stoker Castle, according to the regulations that governed that society of vampires, lovers of military disciplines.

—I plead guilty, Your Excellency.

Said the defendant standing up, causing rumors among those attending the ceremony.

-Very well. King Vlad says inquisitively. -Convicted omits the presentation of evidence and testimony in his defense, now; Could you satisfactorily explain to those present? The reason why he did not help his companions in the altercation with Daro's, the millennial, aware of his dangerousness; And besides, knowing perfectly well that the aggressor was the King of dragons himself?

-Because I first considered it my duty to protect the Princess, seeing how the master Omega Corzo Brigante fell struck by the attack of the dragon's eyes and knowing the danger of the enemy, I also considered that the masters Omega Yamil and Zeth would defeat him easily, had I calculated that he was going to escape them after his disappointing attack, I would have left them the protection of the Princess to them, and I myself would have torn to pieces the King of the dragons without suffering any harm, I plead guilty for having miscalculated the abilities of my companions, and considering that they alone could defeat the enemy.

A deafening crowd erupted, breaking the sepulchral silence in that impressive war auditorium.

-TAP, TAP, TAP!

The pounding of the hammer on the dais could be heard, trying to silence the shouts and arguments of that crowd, upon hearing the statement of the accused.

—You is also accused of disobeying a direct order from the Princess, who instructed you to join his companions in the attack on the dragon; How do you declare the position? —King Vlad asks him following the course of the trial.

"I plead not guilty. —Marcus replies, provoking a new wave of discussions. "The Princess only told me that I should be helping my companions.

"And immediately she ordered me to help her find the master Omega, Corzo Brigante, who had fallen fulminated, I had to choose between a comment and an order, so I obeyed the order and ignored the comment, which makes the accusation of the Princess false, his majesty.

And once again the voices exploded among those present, being silenced again by the continuous beating of the hammer of Judge Vlad who presided over that ceremony of dark justice.

-Well. –said the King. "As we have the testimony of the Princess against him, he will be arrested in which the other Omega masters, including the wounded give their verdict, and will wait in the dungeons for the result of the vote.

Listening to this, the master Omega Marcus Dimitri, headed towards the front of the dais, where he was already being waited for by 8 Beta warriors dressed in white, who would escort him to the dungeons where he would wait for the jury's decision, Princess Lilth she looked at him mockingly from the dais next to her father, and Dimitri looked at her with a cynical smile, winking at her as if mocking him again; Lilth, seeing his gesture, stopped smiling when that group of warriors left the room.
