My Space-Time System-Chapter 541 Long wait.

541 Long wait.

Blake and his 5 units were given 2 weeks break after their mission in Coastville. Unlike Blake who was a workaholic that decided to track the assassin that made an attempt on his life, Camilla had planned on using the break to have a good rest.

So even as the news of Lieutenant Colonel Gunnar's death spread throughout the Ash corps, she was not aware of it till the next day. That was when she also heard the news concerning Blake's detainment.

"Who would have known being a workaholic would get him in trouble." Camilla cursed as she felt helpless.

It had been over an hour since she had heard the news, and she still hadn't found a solution or even how she could affect the matter.

"Guess I have no other option." Camilla said as she took out her communication amulet and had a conference call with Luciano, Damon, Tessie, Brian, and Castiel.

"Why the call, and where is Blake?" Brian asked as they connected to the call.

"Blake is being suspected for the death of Lieutenant Colonel Gunnar. He is currently detained at the Square." Camilla announced leaving everyone except for Luciano shocked.

"What evidence do they have against him?" Castiel was the first to ask.

"I don't know much about the case since it involves a high-level official, and because I am not handling the case, but what I know was that he was found at the crime scene." Camilla said causing everyone to frown.

"What the hell was he doing there?" Brian couldn't help but ask.

"After we returned from a mission in Coastville he said he was going to track the person behind the failed assassination in the Coastville. The deceased Ash corps was one of our prime suspects so I guess that answers why he was there." Camilla said in a worried tone.

"Someone attempted to assassinate him?!" Everyone except Luciano exclaimed once again.

"Why?"

"How did he anger him?"

"Hope you guys were okay?"

Seeing that the call was spiraling out of control, Luciano decided to speak up.

"Ahem!" Luciano loudly cleared his throat causing everyone to keep quiet, then he began speaking. "It all started with his mission in the Malock desert…"

Luciano began explaining everything right from Blake's mission at the Malock desert up to the current case with details of his detainment. He told them how they had gotten some clue that it was the doing of the concealed killer, and why the Ash Corps couldn't just let him go.

"How do you know so much when even I have no… Oh." Camilla quickly remembered whom she was talking to.

"So what are we going to do now… Break him out of prison?" Brian asked now that he understood the situation, but he received weird looks from the rest.

"Firstly, that is impossible. Secondly, you want to break him out and turn all of us into enemies of the empire?" Camilla asked with a raised brow.

"Then what should we do?"

"I don't know, that was why I called you guys, especially Luciano." Camilla said causing everyone to turn to him.

They were all basically useless in matters like this. The only person they knew could affect the situation was Luciano.

"Prince Bryon is already on the case, so there is nothing I can do that he can't, but this doesn't mean freeing him will be easy." Luciano said causing them to go from relieved back to worried.

"Why? Is there something happening behind the scenes that we don't know?" Tessie couldn't help but ask.

"Blake's achievements make him a dangerous enemy to all nobles. So this is the perfect opportunity for them to deal with him." Luciano explained.

"How is that a problem? Bryon's authority should be greater than all noble families combined." Castiel argued.

"He is talking about the Councillors." Camilla corrected him and Luciano nodded in confirmation.

"The only way to quickly free Blake is by the majority of the council voting for it, but knowing them, they would just make excuses to keep him detained for as long as possible especially if no progress is made with the case." Luciano explained before looking at Damon.

"I will speak to my father about this." Damon nodded but received confused looks from the rest.

"Your father is a councilor?" The others asked but only received a nod from him without a change in expression.

"That is 2 out of 4 but it won't be enough." Damon said ignoring the open mouths and wide eyes staring at him.

"It's a tie meaning the Emperor should have the last vote." Brian said as he recovered from the shock, but Luciano shook his head.

"The Emperor doesn't vote, his word is law, but he won't involve himself in small talks like this." Luciano said.

Not only was Blake a commoner, but he was just a Major. So Emperor Cinder saw things like this as something below him.

"So if it's a tie, what next?" Tessie asked.

"Either they take the case to court or the Ash Corps solves the case. Either way, it will surely be a long wait. The question is how long." Luciano explained.

The council's vote was for immediate effect, and the court was the only way to settle it. The problem was that everyone there knew this would be the plan of the nobles since the court was the weapon they used to frustrate the commoners.

In this case, Blake was sure to be set free because Prince Bryon was the one handling it, but either way, it wouldn't be a quick judgment due to the involvement of the other councilors.

'I never for once liked having dealings with the vile creatures called nobles. That was one of the main reasons I didn't join the Ash Corps, but Blake was too fortunate.' Brian shook his head as his hatred for nobles drastically increased.
