Chapter 28 - SUSPICIOUS PEOPLE

It wasn\'t usual for people to wear capes and hoods. The reason it made him interested was that under the capes, they were wearing pure white clothes.

Arthur narrowed his sharp eyes. Only people connected to the temple would wear pure white clothes.

Keeping a close eye on Veronica, he carefully stepped closer to those suspicious people. He wanted to know what they were asking other people.

As he drew closer, he heard one of them saying, "Have you seen a girl about this tall, green eyes and silver hair?" They were using their hands to show how tall the girl was.

Arthur\'s golden orbs flickered. He had a feeling that something like this was going to happen. \'But, aren\'t they too late? Or maybe they had something else to take care of first?\' Thinking of Veronica\'s depressed expression, it reminded him about her senior Sister Ruth.

He strode toward Veronica and pulled her closer. He heard her gasping in shock. Before she could say anything, he mumbled, "Some people from the temple are looking for you."

Veronica looked at him. Her complexion didn\'t look good. "Huh? Why?"

Arthur raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean \'why\'? You have been missing for a whole day."

Veronica shook her head. She explained, "I don\'t mean that. The temple is a huge place you know. Even if they don\'t see me anywhere, they should have looked for me in the temple or mountain area first. Why are they looking for me in the town when they know it\'s not easy for us to go to the town?"

Arthur inquired, "Can you frequently go to the mountain zone?"

Veronica nodded vigorously. Her answer was positive. "We certainly can. Some of us got lost there multiple times. When the guards came the next day, they rescued us."

"If your information is correct, then they should have gone to the mountain, they shouldn\'t be in here." Arthur furrowed his eyebrows. "What do you want to do? Do you want to talk to them or go to the temple on your own?"

Veronica looked down and pondered about it deeply before raising her head. "I want to go to the temple on my own. There is still a chance that they don\'t know where I am. Maybe they are searching for me in both the mountain range and the town."

Arthur gave her a suspicious look. "Why does it seem like you are experienced in this field?" For a person who hardly went outside, she shouldn\'t be able to think so clearly when people were looking for her.

Veronica avoided his gaze and replied lightly, "You are imagining things."

\'Now she is making me more curious,\' Arthur thought. He decided to drag her elsewhere and grabbed her hand. "Let\'s get out of here before they catch us."

"Okay," Veronica had no reason not to agree.

They went back to his house and then sat down on the sofa. Arthur sighed. "Wherever you go, you bring trouble, don\'t you princess?"

Veronica took a glass of water and drank it half before protesting against his claim, "Why would I bring trouble? It\'s you who jinxed it."

"Oh, did I?" Arthur raised the corner of his lips. "Why does this scenario seem like we are two love birds eloping from your rich parents?"

Veronica\'s face flushed under his tease. "Who are love birds? Don\'t talk nonsense." She sat on the couch next to him and mumbled, "What am I going to do for the next four hours? I\'m bored."

Arthur suggested, "You can read books. There are plenty of romance books in the library."

"Can I?" Veronica\'s eyes giggled in joy.

Arthur agreed quite easily, "Sure, go right ahead. No one will bother you. If you are hungry, go to the kitchen. You can find snacks there."

"You are the best!" saying that she ran off to the library.

\'She is so fickle-minded. Just at noon, she said that she hated me. Now, I suddenly became the best person.\' Arthur let out a laugh and went to his study room.

A man was waiting for him. The person was covered in black clothes. He was standing next to the table.

Arthur wasn\'t surprised to see someone waiting for him in his study room. He knew someone was here and that\'s why he let Veronica go to the library.

However, he was surprised to see the man who was there. "Sebastian, why is it you? Where is Felix?"

Sebastian knelt on the floor and bowed. "I\'m sorry, master. I\'ve failed you."

Arthur crossed the room, sat down, and then leaned against the chair. "Where is Felix?" his tone was colder.

Sebastian gulped. His heart shuddered in fear. "Master, he died. Some mercenaries killed him. We found his dead body in the forest. Those mercenaries were slaughtered too. We don\'t know who killed them. But there was a trace of a woman."

"I was the one who killed a bunch of trash in the woods," Arthur coldly refuted. \'It looks like the people she saw killing a man was Felix. That\'s why they were after her. If I only knew…\' he shut his eyes as regret filled his eyes.

He opened his mouth and questioned Sebastian, "Why did they kill Felix?"

Sebastian didn\'t dare to raise his head. He answered, "I haven\'t found that out yet. I\'m still investigating it."

"You came to inform me without knowing anything?!" Arthur slammed the table.

Sebastian\'s throat was dry. "I thought I needed to inform you about Felix\'s death."

Arthur\'s voice was chillingly cold when he spoke, "How come he let himself die like that? He was supposed to be the best man."

Sebastian hesitated before saying, "…It looks like he was drowning in sorrow and didn\'t have the reason to fight. I forgot to mention, the mercenaries sliced his face. I couldn\'t recognize him if it weren\'t for his clothes and the amulet you gave him.

"Is that so?" Arthur tapped the table without a word.

Time passed slowly. Sebastian was sweating even though the temperature of the room dropped significantly.

Arthur instructed him, "Give me the amulet and destroy the trace of the woman that was found in the forest." After a pause, he added, "Also, there is another thing you have to do."
