Episode 111: Pursue the Murderer

As the beast god, Column asked all the orcs to leave the human kingdom quickly, because he promised Beate to rush back before dark. If the delay continues, Beate may really come here to get angry.

"You can decide what happens next. I'm going to take Shan out of here." Colen said to the ugly orc.

The ugly orc asked in confusion: "Aren't you going back to the orc country with us?"

"No. My home is on this continent, so it doesn't matter which country I am in." Colen could only make up one sentence.

"When will you return to the orc country? The people there are waiting for your miracle." The ugly orc has no doubt about this beast god.

Colen said casually: "In a thousand years, I will go." He didn't know that this sentence was the reason why Winton came to follow him. The strange silver-haired werewolf, this was the victory of Winton's werewolf family.

The image of the beast god has been passed down for thousands of years.

After a few brief explanations, Kelen said to Shan: "Let's go. I will find a way to slowly heal the scars in your heart."

Shan didn't say anything, just followed Coren. She didn't know why the beast god was so kind to her.

Everyone in the orc military camp cheered to send off their god, and then began to pack supplies and prepare to return home. An orc in the military camp who was more talented in painting drew a picture of the beast god after his transformation on the rough cloth of the tent.

It seems that this has become the only living portrait of God in history.

Coren took Shan and started to move towards the human military camp, and covered himself tightly with his cloak again. Before dark, they finally returned to the human military camp. Coincidentally, Beate was about to take Roland and Cindy to find

he.

"I'm back." Column shouted to Beate in his original voice.

Shan looked at Column in confusion, wondering why his voice suddenly changed. When Beate saw him coming back, she stopped. "You came back too late! You want me to wipe out the orc army camp, okay?

Just tell me!"

Shan's eyes became wary, and she no longer believed in this so-called beast god hiding in the cloak. Coren pointed at Shan and said to Beate: "Look who this is? I didn't travel in vain.

"

"Bring another girl! Go to hell!" When Beate saw that it was a beautiful girl, she went up and punched Column.

After all, Coren had done something wrong and had a bad idea when he strengthened Shan. So he willingly took the punch and was knocked away. His face was exposed again, and Shan...

Only then did he realize that the beast god was a boy not much older than himself. A sense of humiliation of being deceived came to his heart.

Coren got up from the ground and ran back to Beate. "Can you take a closer look at her face? Don't always use your fist first."

Beate got closer to Shan, who was about to run away. "It really looks like it! You actually found her!"

"So, don't use your fist first." Coren covered his head and face again.

Beate saw that Shan was obviously trying to run away, so she simply grabbed her. "What are you afraid of? Do we look like bad people?"

Shan nodded towards the woman hiding in the cloak. If this is not a bad person, then what kind is?

"Hmph. It has nothing to do with me anyway. You can run away if you want." Beate was not interested in Shan at all and let go of her hand.

Shan took two steps back and looked at Column again. The talkative Roland greeted her: "Are you also a war orphan adopted by Column? Why do you look more like a beautiful noble daughter? What's your name?"

ah?"

Colen stopped Roland. "Okay. I just invited Shan from the orc military camp. Don't be too rude. Our next step is to help her heal the scars in her heart and find her enemy. Otherwise, the scars are not

It will disappear."

Shan didn't expect that this person who lied to her would actually want to help her. But why? Oh my god, is he attracted to me? (Another sentimental girl...)

Roland did not change his bad nature and continued to tease Shan. "Beauty. We will have many opportunities to meet in the future. Haha."

Cindy grabbed the collar of his clothes and pulled him aside. Then she smiled and said to Shan: "Don't worry about this guy, he is very weak. And both Kelen and Beate are very good people. You are very good."

You’ll get to know them soon.”

After Shan met Cindy, she felt a little safer, because what came out of Cindy's mouth was what a serious person should say.

"But, is he really a god?" Shan finally spoke to Cindy.

Cindy said excitedly: "Of course it is. I almost died, but he saved me. And he also gave me a lot of strength. Colen is my god!"

Kelen immediately thought of Ruoshui. Not only because of Cindy's face, but also because of what she said.

Although Colen healed his face, Shan no longer believed that Colen was a god. “To you, maybe he is a god. To me, he is just a liar who healed my physical scars.

"

Coren awkwardly explained for himself: "It is understandable that you think I am a liar, because I did lie to you and the orc army. I am not the beast god, but many people call me a god. Even the real

God is also afraid that I will lose my mind. So I am not a real liar. My purpose is just not to let the war continue, because enough people have died."

Shan also discovered that the young man named Kelen did not have any malicious intentions, and what he said was no different from when he turned into the beast god. So she decided to try to follow him, maybe she could really find her enemy. At least give him treatment.

People who scar themselves get a chance.

Beate pulled Cindy and said to Column: "Let's go. The war is over."

Coren asked innocently: "Do you know where Shan's enemy is?"

"I don't know." Beate turned to look at Shan.

Shan pointed south with her finger. "I remember the appearance of that enemy. He took advantage of the war to kill my parents and burn my face. Now he is a high-ranking official in the human kingdom and must be in Campbell City."

Shan was not the only one who was angry. Column and the others were also very angry that such a shameless guy had such a smooth life. There was also an even more angry one, the God of the Undead. She finally deceived Column, but in the end

And because of such a despicable little person, the crisis in the capital has increased.

Coren and others did not say goodbye to the human military camp, and chose to run back to the capital directly on their legs. Not only to save more time, but also because riding in a carriage was too boring. No one else's bodies needed to rest, which made Roland

De was miserable along the way. It was also a training for him.

The God of the Dead stepped up his investigation during this period to find out who could provoke Column to return to the capital. But unfortunately, no matter how he investigated, there was no result. Because the crime was not committed recently, but five years ago.

In the past, if I didn't have the ability to identify lies, I'm afraid that even five more years of investigation might not yield results.

At noon one day, Colon and the others finally returned to the capital. What was strange was that there was not even a guard at the city gate. Colon and the others entered Campbelltown without being interrogated.

King Weir had actually received news from the God of the Dead a long time ago that the war with the orc kingdom had ended. Although he knew that everything was done by the young man named Colen, he still didn't know how powerful Colen was.

This seemingly harmless guy has returned to the capital. He still tried his best to cover his face so that not too many people would see him. First, he went to the Thieves Guild to inquire about the whereabouts of the murderer who killed Shan's family five years ago. Inside the Thieves Guild

The information is kept confidential and only sold to those who can afford to pay. Unfortunately, even if Column has money, he cannot find out the whereabouts of this murderer. A year ago, the Thieves Guild was let go and it was difficult to extinguish.

Fire. All the information about five years ago was burned to the ground, and even many high-level thieves who guarded the information were burned to death. This is simply someone deliberately covering up the crime, fearing that their whereabouts will be exposed.

Although the God of the Dead knew about the fire, she did not focus on it at that time. Instead, she was paying attention to King Weir's newborn son. Things were so coincidental, and the murderer took advantage of them time and time again. But really

Is it a coincidence? It's hard to say.

Colum found nothing and wandered out of the Thieves Guild. Beate knew that there was no result as soon as she saw the way he walked, so she pulled Cindy and left.

Kelen hurriedly took two steps after him and asked, "Where are you going?"

Beate said without looking back: "Of course, go to the palace. Ask the king to gather all the high-ranking officials, and Shan will be able to recognize them at a glance." It was really a direct and effective method.

"Isn't that a little too rude?" Colen disagreed a little.

"This is the only way. Do you want to inquire from person to person? Anyway, I will take them there now. Do you want to go?" Beate's temper grew again.

This is what the God of the Dead is afraid of, but there is no way to stop Column. She has no choice but to ask King Veer to prepare for the situation and not to let Column and Beate get angry. This is related to her future happiness.

When Coren came to the main entrance of the palace, he really didn't know what reason he should give to enter. He was a weirdo in a cloak, so it was good that he didn't get arrested immediately. Fortunately, what he thought didn't happen, and the knight guarding the door came over on his own initiative.

It's not that I want to catch him. "Hello, sir. His Majesty the King is waiting for you and your friends."

"Well, very good..." Coren pretended to be serious, but in fact he was very nervous. His psychological quality was really poor.

Beate, who was also covering herself with a cloak, pushed him from behind. "Why don't you leave quickly? Why are you so dazed?" This wife is indeed fierce, but she is more considerate.

When they arrived at the palace, the young and handsome King Weir was waiting for them, and there was a beautiful woman beside him who should be the queen. Under the care of the God of the Dead, the Istan family married and had children with women with excellent genes in each generation.

Therefore, both men and women in the Istan family are not only beautiful, but also have high intelligence and fighting potential.

"Welcome, Coren. I am the king of the human kingdom, Ver*Istan." King Ver is worthy of being the king of a country. He has no fear in the face of this unknown weirdo. He has no personal bodyguards around him, let alone anyone else.

wait.

Colen also knew very well that the prophet must have seen this day early, and it was not surprising that Will knew that he was coming. So he said frankly: "Hello. Since you know that I will come, you should also know why I am coming?"

Hand over the murderer."

The three orphans behind him didn't expect that Column would be so proud that he would directly ask the king for someone. It seemed that he was with the right person.

King Weir was also in a dilemma and said to Column: "I only know that you are looking for the murderer, but I don't know who the murderer is. So I can give you the greatest help, which can be regarded as cleaning up the scum for the country."

Colen saw that King Weir was very sincere and did not make excessive demands. "Then please gather all the high-ranking officials in the capital so that we can point out the murderer face to face."

"Okay. Before you came, I had already issued an order to have all the officials in the capital gathered in the palace, regardless of size. Although it will delay the normal operation of various national institutions, it is worth it." Weir had already done this.

.

Column had to admire the efficiency of King Weir, who could actually predict the future. Little did he know that all this was planned by the God of the Dead behind the scenes.

There is also a large square in the palace. Officials rarely have the opportunity to gather together like this, chatting noisily there. When Column saw this group of officials, he did a rough calculation and found that there were thousands at least. He looked again

He looked at Shan, whose eyes were a little red. "It's your turn. Find him and ask him why. Otherwise, there is no difference between killing a person and killing a pig."

Shan was very grateful to Coren for helping her in this way, and nodded to him. "Don't worry." She has gradually become familiar with the changes in her body on the road these days. She has practiced family fighting skills and is now very familiar with herself.

Have confidence.

Coren also heard her say that the murderer looked to be in his thirties at the time, and he shouldn't have changed much even after five years. If he was among this group of people, he would definitely not be able to escape. But suddenly he had a feeling

He had a premonition that the murderer was not among these people. He slowly approached the Kingdom of Weir who accompanied them. "Your Majesty, are there any officials who have not come?"

Weir was well prepared and took out a piece of paper from his body and handed it to him. "Here are a few people who claim to be sick and cannot come. If you want to find them, you can find them by pressing the address on the paper."

Coren took the note and glanced at it quickly. There were only three people, and they all had the same last name. It couldn't be such a coincidence? It was weird.

Yishan's current eyesight can only identify the murderer by looking at faces one by one from a distance, so she quickly returned to Kelun in disappointment. "No..." She lowered her head, her shoulders shaking slightly.

"Don't worry. We still have clues." Colen handed the piece of paper to Shan's chest and caught her tears.

These three names had no meaning to other people, but when Shan saw it, she snatched the paper away. "How could it be him? How is it possible!"

Kelen didn't know the background of these three, but he also knew that Shan knew at least one of them. So he comforted her: "Calm down. Let's go find them right now."

King Weir asked nothing about this. He had received information about the God of the Undead, so he should not know too much, otherwise he would be killed. Although people said that the God of the Undead was a vicious god, to Weir, she was

An elder who takes great care of herself. Because she has become her apostle since she was a child, she will warn her in advance about almost all things that are harmful to her. Even her love was won with her help. So even if it is not the God of the Dead,

The truth is also for your own good. This kind of trust is absolutely unshakable.

Column saw that the clues pointed to the three people on the piece of paper, so he said goodbye to King Weir. "These three people are highly suspected, but they are not necessarily the murderers. I will get to the bottom of it and give you a satisfactory answer. Otherwise, I will give you a satisfactory answer."

I even feel like I’m making trouble here without reason.”

What really satisfies Weir is the sincere attitude of the other party. "You don't look much like the rumors. Maybe everyone has misunderstood you. Forget it, you should hurry up and catch the murderer."

After all, the other party was the king, and Column also gave him a face in front of the officials. He bowed deeply. "Thank you. I really hope that people and gods all over the world can understand me..."

Colen and the others immediately left the palace and went to the address that Shan strongly requested in the note. On the way, Roland excitedly said to Colen: "I didn't expect that the king would have to give you face. You must be cruel."

Cindy said to him coldly: "Shut up. Didn't you see that Shan was in a bad mood?"

Shan is indeed very confused now. Because that person's name is very familiar. It is he who often sends him news about the murderer, encouraging him not to commit suicide early. Since he has given himself hope of living, why would he avoid him?

What? Don’t you want to take revenge yourself? What is going on?

Roland was scolded and happened to arrive at the address. Colen looked at the name on the note again and walked towards the guard at the gate. "Excuse me, is Mr. Ropp at home? We want to see him.

"

"I'm sorry. Mr. Ropp is ill in bed and can't see you. So..." Before the guard could continue, Beate grabbed him from the side.

Coren wanted to stop Beate from messing around, but was pushed back by one sentence. "You're talking nonsense, are you here to visit? Even if we have time, we shouldn't waste it here." She casually dismissed the guard.

Throw it aside.

Cindy and the others immediately entered the gate, and Coren could only say apologetically to the other guard who did not dare to step forward: "We don't mean any harm..." Unfortunately, he didn't even believe this sentence himself.

Colen and the others just forced their way in. With Beate walking in front, no one could stop them. Soon they found the target person in the study. Because there was no need to ask, both Colen and Beate were watching.

No one knows who he looks like. He is simply a middle-aged version of Joseph.

The middle-aged man was sitting at the table and was writing something. He raised his head when he saw someone breaking in. With just one glance, he immediately recognized Shan. "You're still here. It seems that hatred cannot be easily suppressed."

Eliminated." He sighed and put down the pen in his hand.

When Shan saw someone who knew the murderer, she immediately asked loudly with red eyes: "Tell me. Why do you look so much like the murderer? Where is the murderer?"

The middle-aged man replied calmly: "My name is Ladafi Ropp. Although we met for the first time, I know your past and my enemies. The reason why I never told you where the murderer is is.

I'm afraid that you will also be killed. You are a smart boy and you should understand that revenge is impossible without help. Although those orcs took you in, they are not enough to deal with your enemies. I hope you will bring something truly useful this time.

People who have strength, otherwise they will still die."

Colen finally knew that Joseph's surname was Ropp, and he also thought about who the possible perpetrator was. If his guess was correct, that person was Joseph's ancestor, Akafi Ropp. But it seemed to be similar to what Joseph had said.

The story is a little different. Akafi actually activated the power of the Fire Treasure before the war. Also, what is the relationship between Ladafi and Akafi?

Shan turned to look at Column. She felt guilty for the man who helped her as soon as they met. What if Column was also implicated by her? When she was hesitant, Roland encouraged her.

He gave her a look. "Have some confidence in us. No matter how weak I am, I will never see you as someone who can't avenge you."

Colen finally saw the shining point in Roland. Roland is a very loyal person. Although it is difficult to get along with you at the beginning, once he treats you as a friend, he can really do everything in your power.

Kelun, who was in a good mood, also said to Shan: "Don't worry. No one in this world can do anything to me." Such a loud tone.

Ladafi heard that Colum, who was hiding in the cloak, was just a teenager. "Don't be kidding. You are all just children. It is impossible to deal with him."

Beate finally spoke. "Child? Age is not a limit to strength at all. You should take us to see the murderer as soon as possible."

Coren took out the note and asked Ladafi. Sure enough, the other two people were also from the Luop family. The three of them did not go to the palace not to avoid tracing, but to persuade the cruel and ruthless Akafi to stay away.

Here, Coren and Beate's ideas were finally confirmed by Ladafi. Akafi is Ladafi's biological brother, and the other two people written on the paper are their cousins. In short, they are all from the Luop family.

One member.

However, Column still believed that what Joseph said should not be wrong. Akafi must have participated in the war against the demons. Otherwise, Tiff's character would have corrected what he said. Then he should let Akafi return to his humanity.

, at least temporarily allowing him to regain his humanity.

At this time, a panting man came in with burns on his body. As soon as he came in, he shouted: "Go! Akafi's body is on fire again!"

Ladafi could no longer care about Colen and the others. He quickly picked up the half-written letter on the table and kept it on his body. He said to Colen and the others: "This is not a joke. If you don't want to die, don't follow!"

After saying that, he ran out.

Shan also wanted to ask Coren if he should chase her, but Roland pulled him away. "What are you waiting for? Your enemy is right there!"

At this time, Shan could only be grateful that besides those honest orcs, she had finally made human friends again...
