He would also use his new ability to make these people understand... how much unknown suffering Furina had endured for them.
Thinking of this, Yuto walked off the stage and once again came to the aisle platform where he could directly see the judgment seat.
Yuto heavily tapped the ground with his staff, then continued:
"According to Article 18237, Paragraph 1 of the General Principles of fontaine law: The judgment of a core political member of Fontaine requires the affirmation of other core political members, or the consent of over 90% of Fontaine's permanent residents before the judgment can begin.
May I ask, esteemed Chief Justice, have you followed this procedure?"
Yuto's gaze was sharp. As the compiler of fontaine law, he had long left enough contingencies in the detailed regulations.
Even if the plot wouldn't change because of him... he still had a way to make Furina invincible in this Judgment.
Neuvillette, hearing this, fell silent, at a loss for how to respond to Yuto for a moment.
Not only that, but some people in the audience had already begun to consult the "General Principles of fontaine law" to find the corresponding article.
"There really is such a clause!"
"As expected of the strongest Licensed Agent, almost word for word!"
"Is this the most reliable man in Fontaine's history...?"
Looking at the silent Neuvillette, Yuto sneered, then continued:
"It seems our Chief Justice has not followed this procedure, then..."
As Yuto spoke, he turned his gaze to Navia.
He looked deeply at the daughter of his former old friend, a hint of unbearable emotion flashing in his eyes.
"Navia, regarding your matter... after I resolve today's issue and settle everything completely, I will settle this account with you!"
"What you did today... was truly too much."
"Using any means to achieve your goals, this is the behavior of the Fatui! Not the Spina di Rosula led by Cares!"
Hearing this, Navia lowered her head slightly, as if she were a child who had done something wrong.
Seeing this, Yuto felt it inappropriate to continue to reprimand her. Although he knew what this girl had done, from an outsider's perspective, he was not supposed to know those things.
Moreover, he had just stated that an investigation was needed, so... he couldn't settle with Navia now.
Thinking of this, he gently sighed, then turned his gaze to Lyney and Lynette beside him.
"As for your matters... once this is over, I will personally have a good talk with your Father."
"Interfering in the political affairs of other nations... your Fatui claws seem to have stretched a bit too far?!"
"Chang—"
Lyney was about to stand up and explain something, but Lynette, sitting beside him, pulled her brother back, shaking her head gently at him.
Looking at his sister, Lyney couldn't say much more, and finally slowly sat down, falling into a long silence.
After dealing with these people who were, at most, accomplices... Yuto turned his gaze to the true culprit.
Looking at the blonde man standing in the accuser's seat, an unnamed anger suddenly welled up in Yuto's heart.
He forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart, trying to remind himself to wait until the 'Duel' segment later to settle the score.
Thinking of this, Yuto took a deep breath, then continued to speak:
"So, Traveler, what kind of power, what kind of events, could make you believe... that you possess the authority and power to judge a God?"
Yuto looked at the two who still seemed shocked by his combat power, a half-smile on his face, and asked again:
"Just as Lady Furina said when she welcomed you, have you, have you all, considered whether you truly possess the qualities to directly communicate and negotiate with a God?"
Before the two could reply, Yuto continued:
"In my opinion... the result is already clear, you do not possess the corresponding qualities. On the contrary, you even believe that my friendliness came out of nowhere."
"I'm sorry, from now on... you are no longer qualified to enjoy my friendliness."
"According to the relevant provisions of Article 18237, Paragraph 5 of the General Principles of fontaine law, when a core political member of Fontaine needs to enter the Judgment process for certain reasons... Licensed Agents recorded in the Palais Mermonia have the right to act as the agent for that political core."
After saying this, Yuto paused slightly, then continued:
"Coincidentally... I myself am one of Fontaine's first Licensed Agents."
"Now... according to my personal will, I am willing to become Ms. Furina's Licensed Agent in this Judgment."
"I don't want to dwell on the legality of the Judgment now, because you have already reached this point... then I will see it through!"
"You simply don't understand how much Furina has endured for you, yet you presumptuously believe she is harming you..."
"Why aren't you talking about the Archons' beloved now?! Why aren't you talking about The Prophecy now?!"
Yuto's questions echoed through the Opera House, like a heavy hammer striking their hearts.
With that, Yuto looked up at the high and mighty Lord Neuvillette and loudly asked:
"Respected Lord Neuvillette, how is it? My statement... my request, are they all legal and compliant?!"
Hearing this unfamiliar address and questioning tone, Neuvillette's heart trembled. After a long silence, he finally spoke:
"Mr. Yuto's request... is reasonable and valid. Please take the accused seat and participate in this Judgment as Ms. Furina's Licensed Agent."
After saying this, Neuvillette slightly lowered his head and began to repeatedly ask himself:
"Did I... really make a mistake?"
However, Yuto's actions were the same as before; he did not simply walk to the accused seat, but continued to stand where the steps were, and said loudly:
"According to the relevant provisions of Article 18237, Paragraph 6 of the General Principles of fontaine law, when a Duel Proxy stands against a God for certain reasons, the Assistant Administrator shall act on their behalf!"
"Now, I am not Assistant Administrator Yuto of Fontaine, but Lady Furina's 'Duel Proxy' Yuto."
At this point, Yuto slightly closed his eyes, trying to suppress the anger in his heart, and almost gnashed his teeth as he spoke:
"According to the relevant provisions of Article 18237, Paragraph 7 of the General Principles of fontaine law, when the party accusing a core political member is not acting out of public will..."
"The accused core political member still has the right to issue a duel against that accusation!"
"Considering that your Duel Proxy Clorinde is currently incapacitated, I would like to ask..."
"You, the foreign Traveler who has journeyed through countless star seas, who has defeated Archons' kin, suppressed ancient Archons, and directly fought with the Archons..."
"Do you have enough courage to duel me?!"
