Benson Walton’s POV:

“I don’t know why my elders didn’t drive her away. Even if she’s just an idiotic undead without any threat, the land of the living isn’t where she can stay for long.

“She always appears and disappears unpredictably, disappearing from people’s sight for a long time and suddenly appearing in a corner with few people. I’ve heard rumors about her, but they’re mostly dry and boring love stories. This is certainly not the truth. I’ve also asked my elders about her, but everyone kept their mouths shut and warned me not to try to find out about an undead’s past, as that would harm me.

“But I’m even more confused because of this, and I’m sure there must be some secret worth investigating on this dead soul.

“I think that since the two of you were able to devise a plan to lure the soul into a trap, you should have some guesses about my identity. So, let’s ignore that unimportant concealment. In short, after my family was declared to be in decline and had no choice but to leave my family’s line of sight like a stray dog, 1 suddenly found that the soul had left – that’s not exactly right, she should have stayed here, on the land that once belonged to the Evaria Family and wander around all day long.”

“This was very unusual. By then, 1 realized that my guess was wrong. The undead did not follow my family but someone in my family. He or she has died, so the undead will forever linger around the sleeper.

“And tonight, the undead trapped in this small area suddenly left. I don’t know what caused her to change, so 1 followed her to this temple. Then, 1 met the two of you.

“That’s what I wanted to say.”

The young man did not seem to be lying, but 1 knew lying, for the nobles, was easier than eating and drinking, so 1 did not believe him easily.

“So, how did you get in?” I asked. “How do you know the secret of a temple that belongs to the heretic goddess?”

The young man didn’t answer, he just smiled.

“So, the person Rory was monitoring that day was you,” Kevin suddenly said. “You tried to control him but failed. However, you still left many memories that belonged to Rory.”

The young man nodded. “That’s right. I only wanted to protect myself at that time. After all, as a member of the defeated family, it’s best not to mention anything about me to the princess. Although 1 failed in the end, 1 don’t think I gained anything. This temple, the goddess, who could have thought of it? Who would’ve thought of that!”

The young man chuckled as if he had heard a joke, and I immediately noticed that Kevin’s emotions, which had been stabilized with great difficulty, were showing signs of erupting again.

1 didn’t need to think too much to know that Kevin must have a close relationship with this temple or he had already thrown himself into the arms of the heresy.

However, none of the information I had access to about him mentioned this at all. He was so powerful that he could blind the all-pervasive Intelligence Department and mobile patrol team, or someone had hidden this for him.

The probability of the former was even lower than me immediately returning to the Shadow Pack and assuming office. As for the latter, given the well-known label of Kevin, the identity of the person who had concealed the truth was obvious.

So I’d decided to remain silent on this.

And if my guess was correct, then the royal family and the heresy were connected. Judging from the young man’s words, the person Selma had sent to monitor him knew it was related to the heresy.

That was to say, the young man had already obtained much information about the heresy from the monitors, including its relationship with the royal family.

1 couldn’t help but feel a headache. Things were getting more and more complicated. If this young man had information that was not beneficial to the royal family, then even if his surname were not Evaria, 1 would not let him walk out of this temple so easily.

No wonder Kevin was so angry. Even 1 hated the young man’s arrogant smile so much that my teeth itched.

He was just a defeated general. Why couldn’t he just roll out of the Lycan pack like a mouse and live the rest of his life in a poor and remote village?

Now that he knew the secret he shouldn’t know, he was involved in a case full of sensitive information over twenty years ago. He would not be able to get out of this.

1 wouldn’t be able to be kind.

“I’ve heard it all. You said it in an organized manner, whether it’s a story or a fact.”

Sharp teeth and claws grew out again.

“But I’m afraid we’ll have to trouble you to return with us for an investigation. Child, if what you said is true, you’ll be sent home safely, and we’ll naturally go and catch the real murderer. If it’s fake, you don’t want to know the price you must pay.”

The atmosphere became tense again, and the motionless moths buzzed, turning from harmless carvings into terrifying monsters.

Kevin and 1 stared at the young man and noticed his movements, hoping to strike first.

But-

The young man just chuckled and then allowed himself to be captured.

“I hope you keep your promise, Sir,” he said. “I’m going on a study trip with my friends. Breaking a promise is not a gentleman’s character..”
