Chapter 103: Clue (1/2)

”I am the Wandering Demon, Rouge of the Warmester Denoble House,” Rouge said as he raised the sword of light on his hand.

This sword of light was the very symbol of the Wandering Demon, which is him.

In other words, this would prove his identity to Raya Pazier, who was showing clear doubts that he was indeed the Wandering Demon.

And it seems that it was working as when Raya Pazier laid eyes on the shining sword on his hand, Raya Pazier couldn't help but doubt her eyes.

After all, it was absolutely unthinkable for the Wandering Demon, also known as the Dog-In-Leash of the Warmester Denoble House, to betray the Warmester Denoble House!

His pure loyalty to the Warmester Denoble House made the other demons fear him, even the other Denoble Houses were wary of the Wandering Demon, one of those Denoble Houses is the Pazier Denoble House, which is how Raya Pazier knew of the Wandering Demon.

That was why it was unthinkable for him to betray the Warmester Denoble House.

Well, this just goes to show how that scary and demonly nightmare that Rouge experienced earlier managed to change him entirely and his loyalty as well.

No, in the first place, the fact that the Rouge of the Warmester Denoble House was here in this place, and was trying to prove that he is indeed a witness to the killing of the Patriarch of the Warmester Denoble House and its 6 pillars were even weirder than the fact that he betrayed them.

'No...is it because he betrayed them that he can stand witness to something like this? Either way, this means that...there is some truth to the story that the other guy told me,' Raya Pazier thought to herself as she tried assessing this whole situation.

This situation was...it was messy, but well. Raya Pazier didn't have the slightest intention or change to change something in this situation.

It's not like she can do something in this situation when she is being locked up by Lucifer's mana barrier, and she couldn't even try to get out of here.

However, what Raya Pazier wanted to do in this situation is to know the truths of what was going on.

If there are some truths to what Lucifer said to him as Rouge tried to stand witness for him, then what are those truths?

Raya Pazier certainly couldn't discern it as the story that Lucifer said to him is that he just killed the Patriarch of the Warmester Denoble House and its 6 pillars.

All of that should be a lie, and nothing else should be the truth. That was why Raya Pazier couldn't discern the faint truth in the sea of lies.

Well, it is just because Raya Pazier herself couldn't believe that a demon who she does not even know the name of or anyone else in the Zacharath Kingdom has not even heard of has managed to kill the Patriarch of the Warmester Denoble House and its 6 pillars.

Killing them also means the end of the might of the Warmester Denoble House.

The real lynchpin of the Warmester Denoble House is not its numbers or any organizations under them. It is the leaders themselves that are setting them apart from the other Denoble Houses.

The leaders are, of course, the Patriarch and the 6 pillars. Their strength alone was able to push the Warmester Denoble House out of the league of any normal Denoble Houses.

'However...if they were to die so suddenly, then...that would mean that the Warmester Denoble House would just go back to being an ordinary Denoble House, which is absolutely unthinkable for any demon in this kingdom!' Raya Pazier thought to herself as she...slowly turned her head to look at Lucifer, the cause of her thinking so hard right now.

That was why Raya Pazier couldn't help but doubt what Lucifer said as it was just ridiculous for anyone else to believe that.

And, of course, Lucifer could see in Raya Pazier's beautiful face that she didn't believe whatever Lucifer said even though Rouge, a member of the Warmester Denoble House, has already stood up for him and stood witness for Lucifer and his words.

”You're thickheaded, aren't you,” Lucifer said as he turned his head to look at the corpse of the sixth son.

He then continued to speak, ”You're already seeing the corpse of someone who is directly affiliated with the Warmester Family.”

”And now, the words of someone who is working for the Warmester Denoble House, what's more, this individual is someone who even you have heard of.”

”You have all the proof that you need, yet you deny the reality around you.”

”It seems that like my expectations of you were too high, woman,” Lucifer said as he looked at Raya Pazier straight in the eyes.

However, Raya Pazier didn't respond to Lucifer's words as confusion has really started to stabilize in her mind.

Of course, Lucifer could see this very well and has just begun to think.
