Chapter: 427

“Who is it?”

“It’s me, Marakim, My Lord.”

“Okay. I will go up to the office.”

“Yes, my Lord.”

Chun Yujong held back his emotion and got out of the room and went up to the Lord’s office above ground. Great Guardian who was waiting outside the office followed the Lord in. The Lord sat down on the lavish throne and raised his hand to order Great Guardian to report. Marakim then began to report everything that happened while investigating through the castle. The Lord then asked.

“What did you do with those?”

Chun Yujong just said ‘those’ but Marakim understood immediately and lowered his voice.

“...We have disposed of porcelain bottles that we replaced from the hall at the Wojor Peak’s creek.”

“Did you make sure that no one will find it?”

“We have cleaned all the bottles with water and shattered it before we threw it down on the creek, so there is no chance for that to happen, my Lord.”

“Good work.”

What were these bottles they were talking about? All bottles and foods at the party were not removed due to investigation. But it seemed Great Guardian Marakim had taken out bottles that contained liquors from the party and disposed of it.

It was yesterday night when Yeowun went ahead to the Demonic Academy for another enemy. The Lord ordered to quarantine forces of Justice and seal the castle to block anyone from coming in and out of the castle. That’s when Marakim came over to the Lord quietly with a bottle.

‘My Lord. There seems to be something within the liquors in these bottles.’

‘Something?’

The Lord ordered one of the warriors from Guardians to drink it. The warrior, after drinking it, became numb and lost his conscious. The Lord and Great Guardian then found out this was the reason for hypnosis.

‘I will gather these and have Demon Doctor to analyze it.’

The Lord then shook his head at the Great Guardian.

‘Then...?’

‘No, we don’t need to do that. Gather these bottles and dispose it so no one will find it.’

‘What?’

The Great Guardian became confused. Chun Yujong then explained what he had thought up in that short moment.

‘This is a good thing. We will take upper hand in this alliance by using this incident.’

‘Oh...’

Great Guardian gasped. He didn’t think Chun Yujong will find a way to make this situation for their won good. The Lord had found a way to make a reason to oppress the Yulin clan, even through the alliance.

‘We don’t need to give them a chance to get away.’

There were even clan leaders from the cult who were hypnotized. If it was found out that liquors were poisoned, then Yulin clan was sure to blame for the cult for not examining through the liquors that were served in the party. But if the evidence was lost, then only evidence left was that the Yulin clan had allowed enemies to sneak into the Cult’s castle.

‘As you wish, my lord.’

This was how the bottles were replaced. Even if searching ensued through the night, liquors inside replaced bottles contained no poison, so there was no evidence to prove the Yulin clan’s innocence.

“Are doctors still investigating?”
