Chapter 95: Simple-minded

"Whoever you are, we cannot present you — the elder!" Guwang Ho exclaimed then a long curvaceous sword materialized in his hand. From his hand, the flicker of electrifying golden energies crawled upon it.

Yeman was surprised at it. He wondered where the sword came from.

'Umm, err, System, can you tell me how they manage to materialize such a weapon from thin air? Do they have dimensional storage the same as mine?' His curiosity got the better of him. Though Yeman did not expect her to reply.

Since this System seldom replied to him.

<WORLD SCANNING COMPLETE!>

"....."

<Yes, they have. People in this world use a piece of equipment known as a spatial ring. This is a kind of storage similar to yours. But mostly, only high officials or people of the rich family could acquire such a valuable items.>

The System replied.

He was grateful.

Yeman squinted his eyes and saw a ring on each of their middle fingers. However, the first notification from the System piqued his interest but Yeman pushed it at the back of his head for now, because ahead of them, a flash of gold dazzling light came baring towards them.

Bang!

An explosion was heard by them.

"What—!?"

Yet it was followed by a huge exclamation and question mark coming from Guwang Ho. His dazzling attack, coming from his sword, was caught and exploded in the hand of that person.

A slight smoke was left on his palm.

"Hehehe..." Yeman chuckled wickedly.

He was equipping the [Demonic Shield] in his inventory with super high defense.

Mu Hong also took a spear. Their weapons were emblazoned by golden brilliance and were exuding strong magical power.

"Heh!" Yeman smugged. His face looks scary because of his disguise. He lifted his hand to beckon them to attack.

Guwang Ho wrinkled his face. No matter what, he could not feel a strong magical power from that person named Undying Zombie. Weirdly, that person was able to survive that attack on him.

The person beside him, they could feel a strong magical aura from it.

Guwang initially thought that the person with the name of Immortal Witch was the real boss of these two. But she just stood there in silence.

In any case, it wasn't important. They could not comply with their demand to present the elder of the Gentlewind family to them.

Mu Hong twitched his brow at the taunt. "These fools are seeking death!" He barked.

Yeman's mouth extended into a wide grin. Seeing that the people in front of him were having skeptical faces, he summoned a slight magical aura on his right hand.

Guwang Ho and Mu Hong sneered at him. 'This weakling had the nerve to challenge them! The Golden Stage Experts!' Mu Hong thought. But Guwang Ho felt something was amiss.

A second later,

Fwoosh fwoosh! With just a blink of their eyes, two flashes of red lights shot towards them which hit on their forehead.

"Ngh!"

"Ugh!"

Thud thud! The two were thrown away to their back without knowing what happened.

"Argh... w-what the—?" Guwang Ho pulled his body while massaging his temple. He felt dizzy.

Like him, Mu Hong was the same. He pulled his body while peering ahead of him and wearing a grim-angry face. None of them understand what he just did. But there's no use asking an enemy about it. Blood trailed down from where that red light hit.

"Ehehehe, as expected of the parliament officials. My attack could not even hurt you."

After hearing his mocking words, it triggered Mu Hong's fuse. "The heck, what are you saying, do you know the expense of what you've done?! Huh! You attacked the officials of the parliament!"

"Heh!" Yeman showed a creepy smug. This made Mu Hong hit the peak of his patience.

Dumbaaaasss!!! His figure rapidly shot towards the two enemies on the lying tree.

But beneath the disguise of the two, "how simple-minded..." Yeman whispered.

"As expected of My Lord!" Night leaned closer as she sang praise to him.

Lili and Lila arrived at the Deep Forest, but what greeted them was nothing except for the empty carriage and riderless horse.

And on the ground was lying the two golden stage officials of the parliament.

Lili hastily checked their vitals.

Lila on the other hand searched for the whereabouts of Elder Green.

A couple of seconds later, Lila returned, "how are they, Sis?" Lila whispered beside her sister.

"Hmm… they are still breathing," Lili replied.

"I see," She glanced at her sister and tightened her gripped on her fist. "Then, shall we finish them?" She asked.

"Wha—, we can't do that," Lili was a little stunned and glanced at her sister, she saw her serious face. She massaged her temple and shook her head, wondering why this girl was a twin of her.

Lili strongly denies her suggestion.

"Eh, why?"

"Idiot, if we did that, then the Grenn family will become suspects. With that as the start, it won't take long for them to realize that we are the cause of their deaths,"

Lili explained while summoning magical energy on her hand.

"Mmm… I see. Anyway, sis, you started to think like the lady, hehe." Lila said seriously

"W-What are you saying? Compared to the lady, we are just infants!" She strongly denies this. For Lili, Detty was the smartest person in the world. "In any case, how's the elder? Did you trace him?" She asked.

"Mmm, that is the weirdest thing. I couldn't find any traces of him. Even his smell stopped in the carriage only. I wonder what happened here," Lila replied with her finger below her chin.

After hearing her, Lili furrowed. "Tsk, we are late."

'What kind of enemy did that elder get himself? The other great families? Perhaps. But aside from the great families, some powerful groups in the empire can do this. The Guilds!'

She was contemplating. "Right…" suddenly, she remembered something, "how about the parliament guards?" She asked her sister.

"Aaaah them? Mmm… that's weird too. Their smells stopped in that area," she said while pointing at the lying tree on the ground. "I could also smell two different smells from there.

"They must be from the enemy!"

"Yeah, that is what I believe too!"

Since Lili and Lila could not do anything about it, after using a low tier healing spell to stabilize the breathing of two officials, they decide to bring them back to the Grenn's manor. Lila drove the carriage.

On the other hand, the other soldiers were sent to different areas around the Deep Forest.

Yeman dragged them inside his domain by opening an entrance and then pushed them back outside by opening an exit but sent them farther from the road.

He could summon an entrance and exit as long as it was around his perception range.

Inside a dark cave, Elder Grenn was being tied to a chair in front of a wooden table that was made in a crude way.

On the table were different kinds of equipment used by the Elder Priest for bisecting his subjects for experiments.

"Hiiiiii!!" With bloodshot eyes and faces that are full of tears, feces, sweats, and blood, he yelped pitifully that echoed inside the cave.

In front of him was an old man with hollow eyes.

This old man was repeatedly asking him one thing. If who was the real perpetrator of raping the young Miss from the Goldenlotus family.

However, at this moment he couldn't even answer as his tongue was cut occasionally, then a moment later, it was healed again.

His eyeballs trembled as another device came closer to his face. The next second,

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!

Around this time, Yeman was in a meeting with his people.

For his next move.
