Chapter 236: Message (1/2)

The next day after Sam was done with making his 'Gift'.

In the study of General Spark's Mansion.

General is sitting there sorting out some paperwork for his military recruits and the budget.

While he was sitting at his desk and looking at the scrolls, he came across the results of their investigation towards Sam's case.

Even though he is from the Military and in charge of border security and their training, he is deeply involved in the investigation of Sam's case.

He knew better than anyone that is definitely not a person who is projected by the emperor. Sam is so prideful that if he wants something he would rather kill the party and take it out openly, but the Emperor actually reported that Sam stole something from the prince and killed numerous guards who tried to stop him and apart from that he also said that he tried to sexually assault the princess as he tried to kidnap her when he was fleeing.

But he wasn't able to because of the pursuit of the soldiers and the imperial guard.

But General Spark didn't believe a single thing that was in the report.

He believed one thing though and that is Sam must have pissed off the emperor big time.

Since he has a beef with Sam and for some reason, General Mercury doesn't want to lead the investigation of this case, so he got the case for himself.

But there is no substantial development. He has been searching for two months and there are no positive results.

He is starting to think that Sam is not in southern star dukedom and that is if he is really still in the Orion empire.

But suddenly, he sensed something moving above him and when he looked up he saw there was a glass jar on top of the wooden beam. But before he could make sense of what is it, he saw a bright light coming from the window on his right.

The bright green light was so blinding to his eye that he felt his eyes burn as soon as he saw it.

At this moment, all the people in the southern star city saw a bright green light coming towards the city.

Some are marveled and in awe with the majestic sight but the powerful people and the experts have a completely different reaction, they can sense the danger and threat that light beam can do to them.

This all happened in an instant.

The person who is the target of the light beam, General Spark could also sense the threat as the second strongest person in the city.

But it is light, can some be faster than a light beam?

General felt his whole-body burn, the Armor started melting and soon his flesh started burning making most of his muscle fibers expose.

He could feel that he could die at any moment, but before that happened, the light beam disappeared suddenly and he fell backward in pain.

All of this happened in a fraction of a second.

As the man fell down, he saw the glass jar he noticed earlier drop on him.

He knew that whatever the liquid that was inside the jar is not exactly a good thing and he has a vague hunch on who did this to him.

When the glass jar dropped on him, he noticed that it was open and the liquid started entering his body.

He could feel the pain of his body burning and the liquid added made it much worse and his consciousness slowly slipped away.

Within two minutes, many bigshots started moving towards General Spark's residence and a squad of people started moving towards the direction from where the light beam came.

When the Duke entered the General's residence, he saw a half-burnt body and a cracked empty glass jar with some blood around him.

He quickly checked and sighed in relief when he found that he is still alive.

Soon, he was shifted to the bedroom carefully without waking him up and the tower head of the pharmaceutical tower, the best potion master, and also the healer from the Duke mansion all came to take a look at that person.

At the same time, the squad who was led by the deputy general himself are all shocked when they saw what was left in the place of the hill.

The whole hill disappeared from the place, leaving a huge pit spreading over many yards of the forest. And in place of the hill, there is a letter left.

He picked the letter and immediately brought that to the General's residence. And by the time he arrived there, there is something that he didn't expect at all.

The healers and all the other experts are in extreme panic.

He handed the letter over to the Duke and then walked towards a person who seemed to be the assistant of one of the healers and asked about the situation.

”The upper body was completely burnt and a weird liquid was spilled on the wounds.

The healers, potion master, and even the poison masters weren't able to fully identify the liquid.

All they could find are some traces of the venoms from some beasts and they suspect that the poison is concocted from the venoms of many Level 4 creatures.

But they weren't able to do much since they weren't able to find the exact proportions and the nature of the poison.
