Chapter 34 Blame Chef Lucian
Chapter 34 Blame Chef Lucian
After seeing the skeleton, Lucian was confident the skeleton had been moved.
As for why and who did it? Lucian was unsure.
It would not make sense for Wang Ming to send someone here. The more people knew about the fact he ordered an assassin to kill his son, the greater the chance it could become public information.
Lucian carefully examined the surroundings and soon noticed two bony footsteps on the ground leading to the skeleton.
This detail reassured him that it was just an Undead Magical Beast, probably an Undead Skeleton that got lonely and decided to find a partner...
Knowing it was not some weird, elaborate plan, Lucian breathed a sigh of relief, berated himself for being too paranoid, and quickly walked over to the skeleton.
Crouching down, Lucian lightly touched the skeleton's shoulder with a finger and placed it in his inventory. He then ran to a place just outside the range of the strongest guard, a Tendon Tempering Mage, ensuring he would not be discovered.
Once Lucian found a suitable spot near a tree, he summoned the skeleton onto the ground and covered it in leaves, making it look like a natural part of the forest.
Now, all he had to do was find the skeleton accidentally.
Lucian controlled the Mana in his Mana Veins to travel down to his not-so-little brother and quickly felt a familiar sensation.
Mana had many uses as long as one understood how to utilize it.
While indifferently smirking, Lucian unzipped his pants and got down to business.
A golden river splashed on the tree's trunk and trickled down onto the leaves below. A few droplets even splashed on the poor dead skeleton.
Meanwhile, the System was speechless and a bit ashamed of its Host. It robotically coughed and then said in disgust:
[Shameless.]
Lucian was not offended and laughed internally.
They headed in the direction the Tendon Tempering Mage last saw Lucian.
When they arrived, Garrett saw Lucian crouching next to a tree. He approached and called out curiously:
"Owner Lucian, what did you find?"
Lucian, who was kneeling by the tree, looked at Garrett and motioned over with his hands.
"Look at this." Lucian pointed at the skeleton's Spatial Ring "Do you recognize this?"
Garrett approached, curious about what Lucian had found. When he saw the skeleton, there was no change in his expression, but when his gaze shifted to the Spatial Ring the skeleton was wearing, his eyes widened in surprise.
As a former resident of Harmony City, he had seen that bull symbol many times.
It was the Wang Family's Crest!
Garrett's heart pounded as he thought of the consequences of the discovery.
After a moment, he quickly turned to Lucian and said in a low voice that everyone could hear.
"This... This is the Wang Family's Crest! How did this person die?"
Lucian indifferently shrugged. For a moment, he was tempted to ask Garrett if he was stupid. From the fact that the person had been reduced to a skeleton, it was obvious he had been attacked by an Undead Magical Beast. However, he chose to remain tight-lipped.
At that moment, the Tendon Tempering Mage stepped closer and examined the Spatial Ring without touching it. After making sure it was an authentic Wang Family's Spatial Ring, his voice became worried at the implications.
"I once saw the same exact Spatial RIng on the second Young Master Wang's finger." He glanced at the skeleton, noticing it was much shorter than the second Young Master, and continued "This should either be a member of their family or someone close to them. Garrett, we should report this to the Wang Family."
Garrett nodded heavily. He carefully slid the Spatial Ring off the skeleton's finger and extended it to Lucian.
"Owner Lucian, since you were the one to find the skeleton, you should keep the Spatial Ring for now. You will likely receive some rewards from the Wang Family as a contribution."
