"Erik Hephaestus, you were found lying beside Gunhild Galatis, according to the reports. Mr. Ivanov claims that you have committed an act of intimacy which seems to be the truth, according to My Lord's glorious angel Kabaiel." The student of Phoebe spoke sternly.
Erik looked down with a timid yet cold frown and replied with a heavy voice,
"It may sound vague for a mere mortal...a descendant of an exiled god to talk this way of a highly noble woman who's family is favored by goddess Marzanna herself...But I do not regret what I have done..." Erik looks up at Athena.
The whole court was filled with gasps as soon as Erik let out his words. Athena was left rather flabbergasted and Lada was smiling slightly.
