Chapter 170 Necropolis (Part II)



Seeing that the guard in front of me really didn\'t know who I was, didn\'t bother me at all. With his friend taking the lead, I waited for Vermillion to come out.

The word efficiency was music to my ears when I needed them the most. Vermillion, the vampire I had last seen a month ago, appeared before me.

"It\'s been a while, Vermillion."

"The same goes for me as well, Charles."

Like Gram and Cracker, the vampire before me was a leader. Even if he felt uneasy about me, he hid it perfectly and acted naturally.

"Why don\'t you come in for a visit?"

Vermillion immediately welcomed me to his house. I didn\'t reject and follow him in. Inside his house, Vermillion didn\'t have much of a taste. Like the outer layer of his house, everything here was too shiny. I\'m surprised that no one rioted over the amount of money that he spent.

"How do you like my house? Is it to your liking?"

"It lacks appeal."

My words had hurt Vermillion. What I said was true. There was no discernible taste. All Vermillion did was add precious ores into the building, making it plain.

"Then may I know what you are here for?"

My words made him awkward, so he casually changed the topic. With that, it was time for me to start questioning him.

"Do you know the case of people missing all over the globe?"

Vermillion closed his eyes and thought about what I was going to say. Looking at him, I couldn\'t tell what he was thinking.

"Yes, I have heard about it. Are you suggestion it was one of the people of our world?"

He had a frown when he knew that I had insinuated it. If it wasn\'t someone from Earth and Winar, it must be Necropolis or a fourth party.

And with the suspect\'s power, it was leading to the people of Necropolis. Without a doubt, it would be someone from this nation.

"The criminal has the power of death. If possible tell me everyone that has the ability within the top one hundred of your previous ranking."

Vermillion had frowned when I mentioned the culprit\'s power. There was no use when he had heard what power did the criminal have.

"There\'s only two people that would fit the bill. The eight rank and the fourteenth rank."

I remember seeing the eighth rank person in this new world. He was a skeleton. As for the fourteenth rank, I had no idea who he was.

"Is that all you have to ask?"

"Where do both of them live?"

The vampire looked in the window and pointed in a direction.

"If you head straight there, you will find where the skeleton lord Tobias is. As for the fourteen ranker, he\'s a bit special. He travels most of the time."

"Don\'t you think tea is the best after a serious conversation?"

Vermillion asked if that was all. He drank his tea in peace, enjoying the relaxation it gave. I would also like tea, but seeing blood in it didn\'t appetize me.

"I will be leaving now."

"So soon? You have only just arrived."

With me leaving so quickly, Vermillion was disappointed. I wasn\'t here to please him, so I left the house and traveled around.

Since Tobias was the only person I could question, if I followed the direction where the vampire pointed, I could find the skeleton immediately.

Searching in that direction, I found a castle made of bones. As a skeleton, I wouldn\'t expect any other castle to come from it.

A succubus ran for who knows what time with me out in the open. I flew up to get out of the succubus\' way. In a dark world, I could see that the people of the night were a rowdy bunch.

Did the people of this world even have a concept of time? With how much partying around, I thought there was a festival.

Heading to a different country, the leader of the undead setting was much more different than the one that the vampire.

Unlike Brustein, which was like a lively place, this one was considered eerier. The scent coming from this land was comparable to a land worth of garbage dump.

My mood, which had me impatient, had worsened from this stench. Taking away my sense of smell, I continued to fly above this wasteland.

"Tobias."

"Charles."

Even when I had teleported in front of him, he was unnerved by what had happened. It was like he was devoided of any emotions.

What kept these skeletons moving was the shiny core coming from its chest. Breaking it was like destroying a heart.

From rumors, I had heard that the undead had no emotional value. There were some exceptional ones, but Tobias wasn\'t one of them. Even the old Reina would look like a child compared to them.

"What business do you have with me?"

Tobias asked, wondering why I was in his castle. Unlike the three others, Tobias wasn\'t as welcoming for an uninvited guest like myself.

"I will be straightforward and say it. The Saintess has disappeared and I was wondering if you had anything to do with it."

As I said, I was going to be straightforward with Tobias. This wasn\'t much of a comedy skit where I would be a detective. I needed to get answers now.

"While I was indirectly involved, I did plan for it. As for her where about, I don\'t know. Number fourteen should be the one that knows."

Tobias had answered everything in one question. He didn\'t seem shocked when I forced him to tell the truth.

"Who else was involved? And Why?"

"There were many involved. Too many to list. As for the reason? It\'s simple. Her power was too dangerous for the people of our world. Her existence alone could harm our people."

I tried my best to keep my calm from destroying Tobias\' core. There were still some unanswered questions that I would have to ask before I crushed him completely.
