[1] "Court Adjourned! Defendant & Plaintiff Have Vanished?!"
The Three Realms Court descended into chaos. The defendant and plaintiff seats for "Demon King Ludwig" and "Hero Hoshino Akira" were empty—only a note remained:
"Off to fulfill a 300-year-old hotpot promise. Do not pursue. —P.S. Succubus's lawsuit was forged."
Judge Goddess, her bunny-ear headband bristling with rage: "Bailiffs! Check the surveillance!"
The footage revealed—
The Demon King used dark magic to tamper with the courtroom clock, tricking everyone into thinking it was "lunch break."
The Hero carved an "emergency exit" (shaped like a hotpot) in the wall with her holy sword.
The familiar, disguised as a delivery guy, held a sign outside: "Extra-spicy broth ready. Escape window: 30min."
[2] "This Isn’t Jailbreak! It’s a 'Temporary Truce for Meals'!"
At the hotpot restaurant, we (the Demon King and Hoshino) sat across from each other, a boiling "Hellfire Spicy × Holy Light Mild" dual broth between us.
"Let’s be clear," she picked up a slice of "Cursed Lamb" (a Demon Castle specialty). "After this, we’re resuming the trial."18Please respect copyright.PENANATwFnPAghy8
"Sure," I dipped my meat into "Hero’s Signature Sauce." "But Clause 6 of your lawsuit says: 'If Defendant treats Plaintiff to a meal, charges must be dropped.'"
Her chopsticks froze: "...That’s a 300-year-old clause!"18Please respect copyright.PENANAOg4sBFbZHk
"No expiration date~" I grinned, handing her the original Ceasefire Agreement—with fine print at the bottom:18Please respect copyright.PENANAA4jiTbSp3t
"Interpretation rights belong solely to the Demon King (unless the Hero is drunk)."
[3] Goddess’ Cross-Dimensional Manhunt & Familiar’s Livestream Circus
"Viewers! This is Three Realms Court Chase LIVE!" The Goddess barged into the restaurant with a selfie stick, trailed by "Celestial Bailiff Drones."
The familiar promptly set up cameras:18Please respect copyright.PENANAnPG0PshPtn

The holy-spicy fusion detonated into a gold-red mushroom cloud, frying all drones midair!
[4] "The Dual Broth is Cosmic Law!"
When the smoke cleared, the restaurant wall bore a sword-carved decree:18Please respect copyright.PENANAfsBTnYkNmR
"Per Three Realms Culinary Convention Article 1:18Please respect copyright.PENANAkc8mBYBL97
All grudges shall pause before a dual-flavor hotpot."
Goddess, dumbfounded: "...Since when does this 'Convention' exist?!"18Please respect copyright.PENANAGGBQsY1GvB
