Chapter 103 - 104: Enmity
Same gruesome sight. Despite only seeing one body, the cause of death looked very disgusting. The leader’s head was blown off, leaving brain matter on the ground.
The aide approached the corpse and managed to dig out the bullets. He placed the bullets in a bag and, as usual, reported the cause of death."Lord, the leader died from a gunshot wound to the head."
"It’s obvious. I’m not blind." The Lord looked at the corpse in disgust. "But how did bullets manage to kill this insect? Even if the gun or bullets are artifacts, it wouldn’t be that easy to take him out. The perpetrator leaving the bullets here means that it wasn’t an artifact... Could it be the gun?"
Looking at the ransacked hideout, the aide knew that the chances of finding the artifacts were slim.
"Sir... the artifact..." The aide felt a bit terrified. He was the only person here, so if his Lord got angry, the only person he would use as a stress reliever was probably him.
The Lord managed to find an intact seat. He knew what his aide was about to say. If he were the perpetrator, such a juicy artifact would catch his attention.
"Let it be. That artifact is problematic. That’s his problem now," the Lord said, his arms crossed as he leaned his head on the wall.
The aide was curious. "May I ask, sir, what is that artifact all about?"
The Hollow Accord Lord, despite being revered as a god in this organization, is quite ’approachable.’ He is either an easygoing leader or a maniac. He doesn’t put on airs... not because he thinks that you are of the same rank as him, but because he doesn’t care who you are or why you exist.
