Chapter 437: MURDERER!

“You heard him... He has no idea if he can be a man or not...” Elise blushed, “I don’t think a man would find this hard to figure that out... He is definitely an imposter! He wouldn’t have run away like this otherwise.”

“Um...” Alice frowned. She was a little convinced. “Was what Margret said true?”

“Duh! Of course not!” Elise said blushing again, knowing what Alice meant. “She said it to make that guy not dare to make trouble here in the mansion!”

“...” Alice sighed with a very dangerous glint in her eyes.

“I won the bet!” Elise said noticing it.

“What do you want...” Alice asked absentmindedly.

“Keep the fact that this Victor is an imposter a secret!” Elise said. “We can use, and monitor him at the same time to know who is behind him!”

“...” Alice frowned. “Fine, I will play along,” she said. “But if he dares to do anything to mother or father, I will not hesitate to kill him.”

“Ah... Don’t forget... The paternity test...” Elise quickly reminded her. “This guy might be your half-brother...”

“AH....Hsss....” Alice gasped. Now she understood why Elise reacted in shock earlier, whoever was behind this imposter was definitely someone who was preparing for ages! This was way bigger than she could handle. “We should tell grandma...”

“NO! You promised!” Elise quickly stopped her. “The family is compromised, we don’t know who to trust!”

“...”

“This was Victor’s original plan, if you don’t trust me, at least have some faith in him!” Elise said. “Just give us a few months...”

Alice sighed, looking suspiciously at Elise. If this was a plan by Von Geldstadt or someone else she wouldn’t have told her. “Fine...” she finally said as she stood up. “I will need to go check on a few things on my own anyway, be sure to keep an eye on him...”

“AH! What do you wanna do?” Elise asked as she watched Alice walk out.

“Don’t worry, I will keep my promise and be discreet!” Alice replied as she left.

Elise frowned, she really didn’t want to tell Alice, but this was the best course of action at the moment.

She sighed...

“Already left?” Margret asked as she entered the room and looked around for Alice.

“Yeah... Troublesome...”

“I think it is ok... Alice is someone Victor trusts...” Margret sighed as she threw herself on the couch beside Elise, took a pillow, and began to bite at it angrily.

“Why did you go with plan 9 all of a sudden?” Elise asked.

“He is a Scion... I had no choice,” Margret grumbled.

“What? A scion? How sure are you?” Elise exclaimed. This would ruin most of her plans.

“99%... No make it 97%...” Margret said throwing random numbers according to her intuition.

“Explain!” Elise frowned.

“He escaped my trap 5... No 6 times!” Margret said. “First he didn''t agree to go upstairs where I prepared the SM kit in the bedroom, secondly when I wanted to make the chicks kidnap him in the garage, the door of their truck got stuck... In the basement, he refused to go into the cell room where I planned to make him enter one of the cells and then fake the door getting stuck. He went straight for the study. Then the soul wine glass, getting knocked out twice!” she complained.

“You said 6...”

“Right, right... The car... He picked the only one that didn’t have tracking devices on it... It had just been delivered this morning and I didn’t have time to install those!” Margret said. “Damn it... I haven''t even had a chance to test drive it yet!” she complained.

“Still... This might all be a coincidence...” Elise frowned, looking at Axel’s character sheet that she got from appraising him earlier.

Shit... Those two were too strong to be farmers, even stronger than many of the elves he had seen before.

Reading their description Victor began to wonder. Why did he always have to encounter those kinds of scum on the road, couldn’t he really meet some nice people?

No... This might also be connected to the strange things around him... Maybe it had nothing to do with the world, but himself!

As he was lost in thoughts the wagon finally reached his side and slowed down.

“Young man... Are you headed to the city?” the old man asked in a kind tone.

“? ???''? ?????????? ???? ??? ??? ??????...” Victor replied using the language of Trilaria as he acted dumb.

“Oh... A foreigner eh...” The old man smiled harder, “Come on up!” he said, patting the seat and gesturing to Victor to sit beside him.

“Ah...” Victor frowned first then smiled like a gullible kid as he jumped onto the wagon and sat right next to the old man.

WARNING... AN APPRAISE TYPE ARTIFACT IS TRYING TO ACCESS YOUR SYSTEM DATA...

DO YOU WANT TO ALLOW?

A sudden notification alerted him, making him notice the bracelet in the old woman’s hand.

; ; NOOB FINDING BRACELETS

CAN ONLY APPRAISE THOSE WITH LEVEL 20 OR LOWER.

Victor quickly disguised his details and pressed YES

Moments later the old woman smirked, patting the old man’s thigh secretly.

The old man said nothing as he took a carrot and offered it to Victor.

“EAT! GOOD CARROT!” he said loudly, smiling and revealing his mouth that only had 2 broken teeth.

Victor smiled as he took it, thanking the man before biting on it.

Moments later he collapsed.

“What an idiot...” the old man said.

“Let’s quickly stop nearby and cook him good, once we are near the city, we won’t be able to do that...” the old woman said.

“Well said woman...” the old man nodded.“Too bad our teeth are not what they used to be... or we would have cut him and eaten him on the road.” he sighed as he directed the wagon to a nearby grove.

There, they found a well-hidden spot where they unpacked their cooking gear which was composed of a large pot and a group of some very sharp bone saws.

They quickly got to business with the old man brandishing his knife.

“Don’t kill him fast... take his organs out before you kill him!” the old woman scolded. “You don’t want to spoil the taste!”

“Right... Right...” The old man nodded, carefully cutting Victor open before beginning to take out his organs one by one and throwing them into the pot to simmer.

The process went on smoothly and after three hours, the meal was done so the couple sat on a log, enjoying the meal as they watched the sunset.

“What a pretty sunset...”

“Yeah... Reminds me of the day we got the cannibal subclass...”

“True... That was the luckiest day of our life!” the old man nodded.

“Remind me... What was the name of that place again?”

“The Black temple...” the old man sighed. “Right in the middle of the mirage jungle... Who could have guessed we would find a ruin belonging to the mythical age... If it were not for this subclass we could have really died...”

“Yeah...”

“But I have to say... The children we ate that time were amazing... Too bad it is getting hard getting young ones these days...”

“Maybe we can find some in the city...”

“Ha... We are heading to the capital Ishmar... We better not risk it!... Remember, our purpose here is to find the Immortal recipe book. It is definitely in the Imperial Library! We finally tack it here after all these years, it might have the key to unlocking our class’s real potential!” he said with clear passion in his eyes.

“Yeah... Butt... how can we find it between all the other books...”

“Idiot! You just need to ask to borrow it to make a copy... Although it might cost a few gold coins, it is not a forbidden book. Those idiots think it is a normal cookbook! Calling it the Master chef''s cookbook of the old days,” he said with a sarcastic voice. “Just wait... We only need to boil it in demon blood to reveal its real content! Then we will be able to eat all the babies we want and no one will be able to stop us...”

“Yeah... ”

“Do you have anything else to say about it?”

“Ah...no... Why?” The old man''s thoughts were cut as Victor slit his throat, before kicking his corpse to the side of his already dead wife.

“Damn disgusting...” he cursed, giving the pot of over-boiled vegetable soup a look before starting to search the couple for their belongings.

Suddenly, 11 threads of pure malice surrounded him making him look up...

Again?

Damn it... It was too late to escape.

“STOP RIGHT THERE! MURDERER!”

Right then, out of nowhere, a pretty 14-year-old girl in a knight suit of armor screamed as she fell from the sky, landing in front of him with ease, with her thin crystal sword aimed at his neck.

Moments later, 10 knights riding dragons landed around, surrounding him as they drew their lances. Their eyes looked at him with disgust.
