Chapter 420 - : Unique Identity

The entire Kiel Family Estate was destroyed, with all the guests being killed. The scent of death was already stronger in this place which could be sensed by those who were sensitive to it.

Anya and Leo had gone to investigate the Warship of the Demon Sect. After they confirmed the whereabouts of the ship and the information provided by the Kiel Family Head, they came back for further discussion.

On their way back, they hadn't expected to come across such a powerful scent of death, that was even stronger than it was in the towns that had been destroyed by them.

The source happened to be the Kiel Family Estate, or the ruins of it. The two beasts increased their speed, following the desires of their master who wondered what had happened.

Their first thought was that the Family Heads had a fight in the Kiel Family Estate, in which some servants might have died. Still, the aura of death was too strong to be just that.

The moment they came within the estate's proximity, they discovered that the entire estate was missing. Only the rubble could be seen on the ground.

Far away from where the estate used to be, the few survivors of the destruction were looking in the direction of the estate, not knowing what to do next.

"What just happened here?" Leo's expressions darkened as he jumped down his mount, landing in the center of the rubble, noticing the corpses that were littered around.

Some of the bodies were destroyed so badly that he wouldn't have even recognised them if not for the clothes. These were the corpses of the Family Heads that had arrived at the Kiel Family as guests.

Amongst the bodies, there were also three belonging to the heirs of the third, fourth and fifth ranked family, which was even more complicated as their parents were going to be quite upset.

Only two people could be seen who were still alive. One was the girl who was burying the body of the Kiel Family Head. The other was the young man who was sitting on his knees behind the young woman like a servant of the family.

"Who did it?" A furious voice came from the sky as the undead dragon circled the skies of the Kiel Family territory, a woman standing on the dragon's back, yet to come down.

Her aura was reinforced by the deadly aura of the Undead Dragon which made it even more powerful.

Under the suppression of the powerful aura, even the people far away from this estate were forced to their knees, finding a hard time breathing.

Ruby also couldn't resist the aura of death that was acting on her body, almost making her bleed from her nose and lips.

As Eren was already on his knees, it was impossible to judge how the aura affected him, but he had his head down.

The only person who was standing unaffected was Leo, the heir of the Rottenheim Family that was competitive with Anya's Family.

He raised his hand, casting a protective shield around Ruby and Eren, protecting them from the suppression of this aura.

"Aren't you going too far? Do you think a young girl and a weak servant without even the slightest strength could cause all this?" He sharply asked. Even though his voice wasn't loud, it still reached Anya with great clarity.

"If someone could kill all the family heads was still here, do you think he would have given you an opportunity to use your aura?" he sarcastically asked in a mocking tone. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Even though they were stronger than the Family Heads individually, but even they couldn't kill all of them with such ease. If the killer was still here, then they would've already attacked them.

Leo walked closer to Ruby, momentarily glancing at Eren. He was slightly glad that the young man was still safe as he was a perfect candidate for him.

"Is that the body of the Kiel Family Head?" He asked the girl, taking a casual glance at the corpse inside the grave that was yet to be covered.

"That is my father." The young girl answered, wiping the blood off her lips.

"Ah, so you're the lady of the Kiel Family. No wonder you appeared familiar. If I'm not wrong, I saw you when you were much younger, the last time you came to the Capital with your father. You have really grown a lot."

Leo placed his hand on Ruby's head. Even though they were almost the same age, he still treated her like a girl from the younger generation.

"Can you tell me what happened here? Who did all this?" he asked the young girl, giving her a brotherly feeling.

It was as if he was here to protect her so she didn't need to worry about naming the culprit.

He didn't notice Eren carefully observing him from behind, even using Identification to know as much as he could about the heir of the Rottenheim Family.

What truly surprised Eren was the strength of Leo Rottenheim. Compared to the family heads that he had faced, Leo was much stronger.

The status screen didn't show any treasures in possession of Leo, but Eren was sure that this guy definitely had some.

His treasures might be even more special than the others, especially since he was so deeply involved with the Necromancer Tower.

Not only was his family heritage strong, but he was also a disciple of one of the Guardians of the Necromancer Tower.

That alone was a surprising identity in itself, especially since the Necromancer Tower only had two Guardians.

There was no information about the real strength of the two Guardians, but it was said that they were candidates to replace the Necromancer Tower Master in case the Tower Master was to die.

It was also their presence in the Necromancer Tower which made that place so much harder to deal with.

If Hell was as special as he believed it to be, Eren was sure that he had to go through one of the Guardians to even get close to the doorway.
