Chapter 369: A Tentacled Demon
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Fighting for one's life can be very exhausting. But instead of resting, these people are arguing over the matter. No, instead of helping the dead, everyone was looking for someone to blame for the incident. "It most be a summoning!" Someone said. "That is not possible! A talisman like that didn't exist." "This must be the church's doing. They have been in decline and now they wanted to show us they are getting back on their feet!" "Nonsense! The church had nothing to do with this." "I am not asking your opinion!" "So am I!" "Why don't we just..." "Shut the hell up! You don't have the right to say anything! Your son was safe somewhere up north!" Anna rolled her eyes at the audacity of these people. There were injured students, the place was literally ruined. The building looked like a pile of trash. And everyone was trying to blame other people. This was the first thing that they did the moment Alpha Urchaid killed that demon.
Speaking of Alpha Urchaid, the man had been silent since that fight. He was just sitting calmly in his chair a few meters away from her.
"Everyone... I think this is not the time for that." Anna was surprised to see Prince Asahel here. Earlier, he insisted on helping carry the wounded and even helped dressed a few wounded. "Everyone was worried. I get it," Asahel added. "But this isn't the time to find someone to blame with. This accident caused a lot of damage and killed a few students."
When he mentioned the deaths, the faces of the adults turned uglier. "We need to stand as one and fight demons. We cannot do it if we continue fighting with each other." Anna nodded inwardly. He was spouting facts. Like a real prince. However, she still has a bad feeling about this man. Prince Asahel could fight. But he wasn't as good as Mo Li or even Abiel. Earlier, Anna could see that the man would even use Abiel as a shield every now and then.
As a result, Abiel sustained some heavy injuries. While the Prince's clothes were bloodied and tattered, he didn't actually have anything that could threaten his life.
"First, I want to acknowledge Miss Matthews..." So, it was starting? Anna didn't react to Asaheks words. She just stared straight and observed the Alpha's attention. Just like her, Alpha Urchaid's face was devoid of any expression. Their eyes met, and an invisible static seemed to surround them.
The Alpha... looked angry. But why? "Miss Matthews, you did well. If you weren't there, the demons would have overpowered us before the reinforcements arrive." "Your highness, I have matters I wanted to raise. This one involves Miss Matthews." "What is it?" Asahel asked.
"Well, some students claimed they saw demons... coming out of the building where Miss Matthews stayed." "What?" Anna couldn't help but mutter. She examined the man's appearance and recognized him as one of Alpha's Urchaid's men. "I want to make sure that this is true. So I would like to ask for your permission to check the building." The man bowed toward the prince before he added, "I understand that the headmistress and the prince wanted to protect Miss Matthews, but if she is involved in the summoning of those demons, then I believe we should investigate this matter."
Mahel gave her a look full of assurance. It was as if the man wanted to tell her to trust him. Free Web Novel . Com
Very suspicious. "Alright... please bring in the students who saw the demons..." "Your highness with all due respect, the demons they were the from the forest behind the building. I think we should start by checking that area." Anna was surprised to hear Headmistress Mo's voice.
Was she trying to protect her? Or was she trying to delay the investigation? "Then we will send two teams to the forest behind the building that was attacked and every one of us... needed to examine the building where Miss Matthews is living. Even if most of you don't like her, we cannot deny that Miss Matthews is an excellent fighter. We needed to protect her, just like how she protected us." Anna fought the urge to puke her guts out. This Mabel was indeed good with words.
He was like the opposite of Mo Li. Now that she thought about it, she hadn't seen Mo Li since she returned that man's sword. She didn't see him help with the wounded earlier, too.
"As for you, Miss Matthews, you should come with us." Anna followed them without saying anything. Right now, she had some suspicions, but she couldn't really do anything about it without evidence. After a few minutes, they finally arrived. "Where did you see the demons?" "Where are the students?" Prince Mabel cleared his throat. "You said the demons run out of this building?" The woman with a cut on her lower lip, pale appearance, and an obvious bad hair day walked toward Prince Asahel. She lowered her head and pointed at the wooden door that looked older than everyone here.
"There—" the woman's voice trembled. "I saw... a tentacled demon run out of the door."
"But the door is still intact," the headmistress quickly pointed out. "Demons are creatures who love to destroy things. They killed humans, destroy homes, bum the forests. They — they only left devastation. "
"That—" "Are you sure that you saw a demon run out of the building?" Mabel asked. "Yes, your highness. I — I saw it." "What does it look like?" "Huh?"
Anna smiled. "I was asking because... Tentacled demons are about seven meters tall... and the door is only about three meters. How did the demon get out without leaving any traces? I didn't know a demon would be so kind and actually close the door before leaving. Unless, of course... "
"I— I am not lying! It was really a demon! Hey... you saw it with me! We saw it together! Say something!" "She — she's not lying! She's right. We saw it together and it — it was indeed a tentacled demon." A man with reddish hair came forward..
