~ Neuvillette's Perspective ~

I was doing paperwork till I heard a knock on my office door.

" You may enter." I spoke

I then saw Sedene open the door and walk inside.

" Morning, Monsieur Neuvillette. The Magician Lyney is waiting to gain entry to your office." She spoke

I just Sighed..

" He can enter Sedene." I replied forcing a smile on my face for the melusine.

" Certainly, Monsieur." She replied

She then left my office and Lyney open the door and let himself in.

" Mr Lyney." I started

" Morning, Moneieur Neuvillette." He replied

" Is there anything I can be of assistance to you Mr Lyney?" I asked

" I'm here to file a court case in order for a trial." He spoke with a smirk

I was very suspicious at Lyney's smirk but wanted to hear what he was filing against.

" What is the conflict about." I asked

" It's about Lady Furina not being the Hydro Archon." Lyney spoke

I just stared at him emotionlessly.

" No." I replied

" No?" He questioned

" I will not hold a Trial of Furina not being the Hydro Archon." I replied

" You don't have a choice."

" The thing is I do have a choice to decline because you broke a law the other day Mr Lyney."

" I did not break any law Neuvillette." He replied

" That's, Monsieur Neuvillette to you Lyney." I spoke sternly

He rolled his eyes at me but I went on to explain why I wouldn't support such a case.

" You went to go and meet up with the Fatui illegally not to mention giving them confidential information that we talked about."

I saw him start to get a bit anxious as he tried to think of a retort.

" I would put you on trial for this exchange of confidential information. But I just don't have that time of time right now." I spoke

He just stood in front of my desk quiet.

" Anything else you have to say Mr Lyney?" I asked

Just as I asked this I saw his eye's beam as if he had an idea, and after I saw them beam he started to smirk lightly.

" Fine. Don't want to accept the case? I'll simply get two harbingers to go and attack and torture your precious Wriothesley."

" I beg your pardon?" I replied

" By the time you want to see him today he will be captured and tortured heavily by the Fatui. Im guessing you saw the other day that the Fatui and I have connections."

I started to rise to my feet and glare heavily at this boy standing in front of me.

" A glare from you won't scare me." He spoke confidently

" It was never meant to scare you." I replied sternly

I then walked straight up to him, towering over him. I then looked down and grabbed him by the collar so he was around my height.
