The gears of fate for the Star Empire have begun to turn silently.

Meanwhile, something was also happening within the Holy Radiant Empire.

“Saint Cana has been in contact with the Dragon Legion that destroyed the Holy Lance Legion. Until the matter is thoroughly investigated, she can no longer serve as the commander of the Holy Angel Legion!”

"This is far from enough! Saint Cana has betrayed the Holy Light; even without trial, she must be imprisoned immediately!"

"I demand that the Holy Angel family be punished! The Holy Angel family must bear the losses of the Holy Lancer Legion!"

Saint Cana looked impatiently at the group of Imperial Senate members in the military tribunal.

Upon her return from Star City and landing at the Starport, she was immediately taken into custody by the military court of the Holy Radiant Empire.

Fortunately, thanks to her prior arrangements, the Angels family was able to stand up and deal with the military court immediately.

The end result was that Saint Cana's freedom was restricted and she had to undergo trial by a military court.

To be honest, in the past, Saint Cana's actions this time would definitely have drawn attacks from other families, and she might even have lost her position as commander of the Holy Angel Legion.

But this time is different, because this time there is another 'companion' drawing the fire.

Stanford, the Southern Star Region Administrator.

Knock knock knock

A metallic hammer struck: "Silence, silence."

The trial of Saint Cana is temporarily suspended, and the results will be announced tomorrow.

The court is adjourning for a short period; the next hearing will begin in half an hour.

Upon hearing the Chief Justice's words, those who had been protesting just moments before fell silent, though their expressions were somewhat strange.

Because they also knew that the man who would be standing in Saint Cana's position would be the Southern Star Region Governor!

Saint Cana turned around, stepped down from the judge's bench, and walked directly out of the courtroom.

Just as she reached the door, she saw the man coming towards her.

Southern Star Region Administrator, Stanford Administrator.

“General Saint Cana.” The Stanford governor smiled at Saint Cana, as if the upcoming court-martial was of no concern whatsoever.

"Greetings, Your Excellency the Consul." Saint Cana bowed to the Consul before her.

In the Holy Glory Empire, because there is no true emperor, the hierarchical system among the members is quite complex.

While five consuls hold high positions on the surface, the Imperial Senate can restrain them.

In addition, there are the various families behind them, and the Holy Light Legion.

In short, it is an extremely complex power relationship.

In a kingdom with any other system, it would probably have fallen into complete chaos long ago.

But the Holy Radiant Empire has come this far by governing through faith.

"What does General Saint Cana think of that Dragon Lord?" the Stanford governor asked directly.

After all, when he had a video call with Zhao Chen before, Santa Cana was actually present, but the Stanford governor simply chose to ignore her.

Saint Cana paused for a moment, then commented directly: "Careful yet extremely bold and arrogant; their actions seem chaotic, but often conceal hidden secrets."

He is a man who is hard to understand.

His Dragon Legion is {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} very strong; at least within our Holy Glory Empire, it would be difficult to find a legion fleet that could contend with it in a battle involving an equal number of starships.

"The Saints Legion?" Consul Stanford asked.

The Saint Legion is the strongest legion fleet of the Holy Radiance Empire, the leader of the Holy Light Legion, and also the strongest henchman trained by the Saint Family.

Saint Cana pondered for a moment, then shook her head and said, "The Saints' chances of winning are no more than 30%."

"Thank you, I'll take my leave now."

"You know those old fogies inside hate it when people are late." Stanford Governor smiled and walked toward the military courthouse.

"Your Excellency Stanford, there are some things you'd better not touch."

Nothing can be hidden from the Holy Light.

"Under the Holy Light, no filth is permitted." Saint Cana said in a deep voice as the Stanford governor brushed past her.

Stanford Governor smiled slightly: "Thank you for the reminder, General Santa Cana."

Saint Cana stood there for a long time until the door behind her closed and a new round of interrogation began inside.

Although Stanford was the governor of the Southern Star Region, in the previous incident, he completely ignored the annihilation of the Holy Lance Corps and retreated in disgrace.

This gave some of the opposing forces in the Imperial Senate an opportunity to launch attacks and impeachments against him.

The reason why Saint Cana knew she wouldn't be affected this time was...

It was because her father had already told her that the family had taken care of everything for her.

The Angels family and the Saints family behind Stanford have entered into a secret partnership.

Regarding this incident, both sides unanimously place the blame on the commander of the Holy Lance Corps.

The reason given was that the commander harbored jealousy towards Saint Cana and had a past grudge against her. He took advantage of Saint Cana's trip to Star City to assassinate her.

This led to a series of subsequent events, including the opportunity presented by the JF-17 Dragon Legion to annihilate them.

Stanford's governor remained calm in the face of danger and made the most appropriate response plan, which, although it may have been flawed in some aspects, was the best solution at the time.

As for whether the Lucius family behind the Lucius Legion will agree.

They naturally agreed, since they were essentially dogs kept by the Saints family, and the Holy Angels family was willing to make compensation privately.

In this way, none of the three forces bear any responsibility, and only the commander, who had already been blasted into dust by the Falcon Legion's starships, takes the blame.

Well, it's a win-win situation for everyone.

As Saint Cana pondered these thoughts, she couldn't help but recall the man's face.

He's cheeky, but sometimes he feels incredibly reliable.

Also, the starship restaurant in his fleet was really good. After returning, when she ate the food, she felt that it was not to her liking and she lost a lot of weight.

Just as Saint Cana was lost in thought.

A dazzling shuttle hovered directly above Saint Cana's head, and then a squad of female soldiers jumped down, landing on the ground and surrounding Saint Cana.

"Miss, I'm sorry."

This is the head of the household's order.

"You will be returning to your family to rest for the next period of time. Please cooperate with us." A female soldier captain said apologetically.

Saint Cana shrugged helplessly; she had long anticipated the punishment she would face upon her return.

This is already the lightest one.

But she had no other choice.

She only hoped that she could persuade her family to launch an investigation into the Saints family, especially the Southern Star Region Governor.

I just hope it's not too late.

Saint Cana returned to her family with the female soldiers.

Several hours later.

The Stanford governor emerged from the military courtroom and boarded a shuttle that was already parked.

"Sir, how is the situation?" A female secretary thoughtfully handed over a glass of water.

"What else could it be? Those old fogies just keep babbling on and on." Governor Stanford sneered, taking a sip of water as he asked, "How's that plan going?"

“We have already started that research project, and everything is progressing smoothly so far,” the secretary replied.

A cold glint flashed in the eyes of the Stanford governor: "Once I master that technology, hmph..."

The empire no longer needs five consuls and that damned Imperial Senate!
