Chapter 169: Suspicion



"Are you sure?" Nathan asked the captain.

"Yep! We\'ll be on the lookout for tonight. You and your friend should get some rest tonight."

Nathan looked unconvinced, considering this was originally their mission. However, the captain smiled at him. "To be honest, it\'s sad to have your friends dying on the battlefield. But it\'s more excruciating when thinking that they are unable to go back home.

"That\'s why I\'m extremely grateful to you for allowing us to bring back their bodies. At least their families will have closure.

"It\'s shameless for me to say this, but please get some rest, esteemed summoners. I just wish for you to be in your peak condition so that you will have the strength to defeat those aliens."

Nathan was visibly moved. He couldn\'t really make an argument when he said it that way, so Nathan nodded. "Alright. I\'ll get some rest and beat some aliens tomorrow."

"Thank you." The captain\'s smile became bigger.

That was what Nathan remembered, except for the fact everything changed the next day.

Before him was the corpse of the kind captain that asked him to rest. His gentle smile was still fresh in his mind.

There was one visible wound on his back. It looked like they used claws to kill the captain.

However, there was one thing that didn\'t make sense. The fact that he was an elite knight who was capable of defeating aliens meant he would have put up a fight if there were aliens coming during the night.

Yet he didn\'t look like he was fighting someone. There was no sound either.

\'This looks strange.\' Nathan\'s expression turned grim.

Selena squinted her eyes and looked around. There was no trace of battle. Even David seemed to do the same thing.

"What is going on? Why did you die?" A member of his squad dropped to his knees. "Why?"

No one could answer that question.

David inspected the wound and said, "Claws, huh? Are the aliens so powerful that he is unable to fight back? But an alien like that must be a juvenile class that is specialized in speed."

It was supposed to be obvious, but all of a sudden, one of them suddenly pointed at Nathan, shouting, "You must be the one who killed him!"

"Huh?" Nathan raised his eyebrows, wondering where the accusation was coming from.

"Your familiars are beasts. They can make this kind of wound. Because there was no sign of fight, the captain must have recognized them as an ally. The murderer chose that time to lower his guard and struck him from behind. That\'s the only explanation!" The guy glared at Nathan, his eyes filled with killing intent.

David waved his hand. "Stop it. This is not the time to throw baseless accusations."

"This is not a baseless accusation. There is no way the captain will be defeated so easily." The guy gnashed his teeth, his hands shaking and moving as if he were about to reach his sword.

David stopped him one more time. "What does the summoner want from the captain? It\'s clear that he has been the one helping us."

Nathan had indeed asked Anubis for the transportation.

Nathan didn\'t like this accusation. If it was his enemy, he would probably do it. However, the captain was a good guy, so there was no reason for him to do it.

Besides, he had recalled all his familiars yesterday.

If he thought about it, there was no one capable of giving such a wound other than him.

"Just because you are a summoner, do you think you can kill anyone you like without repercussions?" The soldier looked like he was about to pull out his sword.

David also agreed with this statement, but Nathan had been a kind person this whole time. It would be weird for him to suddenly show such a cruel side. At the same time, he didn\'t have a reason to dismiss his suspicion.

Nathan closed his eyes for a moment before summoning Fenrir and Anubis.

All soldiers pulled out their respective weapons as if they were about to fight against Nathan.

To their surprise, Nathan simply commanded, "Anubis, Fenrir. Can you track the culprit from the wound?"

"Stop it!"

"What are you trying to do?"

The knights looked like they were about to jump on the two beasts, but Nathan simply stated with a cold tone, "You should know that they have a stronger sense of smell. If you are going to make an accusation, you should have done a better job."

"Stop it! Are you going to eat the captain?!"

Nathan simply ignored him and turned to David. "Since this is an accusation against me, I have the right to defend myself, right? What should I do? I think I have to clear up my name."

David\'s expression turned grim. Nathan had been a rational person, so David nodded and announced out loud. "Move away! No one other than the two beasts can approach the corpse. If anyone disobeys it, then I, David, will consider you trying to hide your crime."

"!!!" The soldiers gnashed their teeth, but no matter what they did, they had no choice but to follow that order.

After all, David held the highest rank.

If they didn\'t obey, David would turn a blind eye if Nathan killed them because they deserved it.

Fenrir and Anubis approached the captain and started sniffing the wound. Both of them instantly noticed what was going on.

They nodded to each other as they walked back. It looked like they were going to Nathan, but surprisingly, they passed him and pointed at the tent that the knights used. "The smell is actually coming this way."

Fenrir and Anubis led them to the tent and actually grabbed one of the gloves that someone used.

To their surprise, the tips of the gloves were actually punctured by something sharp, as if a human\'s hand had turned into a claw.

"!!!" David widened his eyes while Fenrir declared, "This is the item with the most noticeable scent in that wound. The murderer is not us, but it is indeed among us."
