The prison term was only seven years, but unlike her previous life, Space Alliance had enough staff and highly advanced analysis systems to handle cases fast.
As long as both sides agreed, a verdict could be issued right away.
That meant Joanna had to stay.
So they remained in the courtroom for mediation, with Kayden, David, and Irene all prepared for the trial to start at any time.
Joanna entered with Maverick beside her.
David and Irene glanced at her. Even though they tried to hide it, there was still clear hatred in their eyes.
Joanna had taken a big bite out of them.
“Joanna, you should think this through. That money would probably take you five years to earn. At university, you wouldn’t need to grind dungeons or explore public zones. With five billion, you could even upgrade your skills to Diamond-tier and leave your peers far behind. Know when to stop, or you’ll end up with nothing p>
Joanna replied calmly, “My conditions haven’t changed. One billion per year, and you serve four years in prison. If you don’t agree, we can let the system announce the verdict right now p>
David and Irene exchanged a glance, silently reaching a decision.
David suddenly exploded.
“Who do you think you are? Just some affinity-talent slut! Once you’re in university, you’ll be nothing but a baby-making machine! We’re giving you a chance to change your life with money, and you’re still greedy? Don’t expect a single credit from us. We’d rather go to prison p>
Kayden also snapped. “I’ve got money, and I won’t give you a damn thing! Even in prison, I’ll live just fine. I’ll have plenty of female inmates serving me. What can you do about it p>
Irene looked at her son with a flicker of pain in her eyes.
She had just exchanged private messages with David through the system.
At this point, they refused to give up their entire fortune. Even though Thunderfall Star was dangerous, they still clung to a tiny bit of hope. After all, wasn’t it just seven years of mining?

As for Kayden being sent to Grayfog Star, that was worse. It could break him completely and even turn him into an idiot.
But this disaster was his fault to begin with.
If not for their troublemaking son, they wouldn’t have ended up like that.
So, they decided to cut their losses. They already had a backup plan.
Their remaining money had been transferred to Kayden’s younger brother, Samuel Wright, who was only two years old.
Now, they would await the verdict.
In the courtroom, mediation officially failed. Both sides signed the trial documents.
Joanna submitted a formal statement refusing forgiveness, while David’s side signed a confession.
Soon after, the Space Alliance system began announcing the judgment.
The ruling would be published on the official website and sent to Joanna, David, Irene, and Kayden.
The next moment, David screamed in panic.
“Why?! Why is the fine so high p>
Joanna opened the judgment results.
“Space Alliance System Notification-Case Judgment Document:
“Plaintiff: Joanna. Appeal approved.
“Defendants: David, Irene
“Charges:
“Conspiracy to Commit Murder-GUILTY. Sentence: 6 years, 10 months on Thunderfall Star. Fine: 4.82 million Starcoins.

“Charges:
“Assault, Sexual Harassment, Rape, Coercion, Unlawful Confinement, School Bullying- GUILTY. Total sentence: 13 years on Grayfog Star. Fine: 10.28 million Starcoins.
“Endangering Interstellar Talent-GUILTY (including but not limited to the plaintiff and multiple other students). Sentence: 237 years on Grayfog Star. Fine: 20.1376 billion Starcoins.
“Compensation awarded to plaintiff Joanna: 321.97 million Starcoins.
“Other victims will receive compensation from the Space Alliance system.
“Any excess fines will be confiscated by the Space Alliance system to maintain universal stability p>
David and Irene were completely dumbfounded.
They didn’t even want to pay five billion, yet the system had fined them 20.1 billion.
“I object! Why is the ‘Endangering Interstellar Talent’ charge so insane? She’s only an S-rank summoner!” Irene yelled.
With the long lifespans of interstellar citizens, a Level 40 player could live around 400 years, so seven-years sentence hadn’t concerned them.
But now, they were sentenced to over 207 years. That meant half their lives would be spent on Thunderfall Star.
Even Joanna hadn’t seen that coming.
She immediately opened the detailed ruling and carefully read the regulations cited.
One section stood out. When evaluating talent, humanoid summons were also counted as having human lineage, so they were qualified as talent.
“The system recognizes the plaintiff’s summoned beasts possess potential exceeding SSS-rank and are therefore classified as SSS-rank talent. The defendants attempted to kill SSS-rank talents on eight occasions. Sentences have been combined accordingly p>
