Chapter 434: Pride of Existence (6)
A brief, tension-filled silence hung in the air like a fuse ready to explode.
The crowd was left dumbfounded by Zepar’s outrageous words. Moments later, a massive roar erupted from the plaza, louder than ever before. I quickly glanced toward the spot where Sitri sat. She maintained her usual, stoic expression.
“The only thing I regret is that I could not witness the whore with red hair die. It must have been a masterpiece, no doubt. To think I missed seeing that filthy woman’s face contort hideously……. Such a shame, such a real shame!”
Except for her hand.
Sitri’s left arm was trembling.
I turned my head and glared at Zepar.
“Can you swear that what you just said is the absolute truth without a shred of lie?”
“There is no need to swear as it is the truth. I was the one who led the assassination. It was I who met with Belial and caused the internal strife within the Mountain Faction. That fool could not even hide his destination properly, so he was exposed immediately.”
Zepar scoffed and looked at Sitri. His eyes were filled with mockery.
