Chapter 74: Nanno’s First Feat – The Unjudgeable
A quiet courtroom. The air is thick with tension.
The man at the defense table sits with a smirk on his face. Untouchable. Unrepentant.
He has escaped judgment more times than anyone can count.
Bribery. Loopholes. Corrupt power.
No law has ever been able to hold him down. No karma has ever reached him.
Until now.
Nanno stands in the back of the room.
No one notices her.
Not yet.
The verdict is read. "Not guilty."
The man laughs. He won again. He always does.
Until he turns—
And sees her.
His laughter dies in his throat.
Something is wrong.
The courtroom fades away.
The walls melt into nothingness.
Suddenly, he is somewhere else.
A place where no law protects him.
Where his power means nothing.
Where only truth exists.
He turns in panic—
And sees Nanno standing before him.
NANNO:
"You thought you were above judgment."
She steps forward.
The ground beneath him shatters.
A thousand reflections of his own crimes surround him.
Each victim. Every lie. Every sin.
All playing at once.
And for the first time—
He feels it.
The weight.
The suffering he caused.
The agony he ignored.
It all collapses onto him.
He screams.
Not because he is being punished—
But because he is finally forced to feel.
His own soul turns against him.
There is no escape.
No bribery.
No power to run to.
Only truth.
And truth will never let him go.
Nanno watches.
And when she turns away,
he is still screaming.
But this time—
he is screaming as the guilty man he always was.
