Diary of the Improper Monster Girl Transformation.

Chapter 138: Murder Night (15)
Dark clouds hung over the heads of the nobles of the Frost Crystal Kingdom.

Who will strike first?
Is it the returning white dove?

Or is it the Frost Crystal Royal Family who has been patient and silent all this time?

All the nobles were waiting for what would happen next, and they didn’t even dare to leave the kingdom and return to their own territories.

Within the kingdom, they might be able to unite with other nobles, but once they return to their territory, they are left alone to fight.

Furthermore, if such behavior is considered a provocation, the only consequence that awaits them is death.

But in the midst of such torment, the subsequent developments were different from what they had imagined - there was a huge gap.

Nothing has changed since that day.

Herbert disappeared.

He didn't come back for ten days.

He never appeared in the royal city again and did not return to the Silver Wing Duke's Mansion.

No one has ever seen him again!

At the same time, the Frost Crystal Royal Family also remained strangely silent at this time.

The king, who has been unwell for some time, has not yet appeared in public, and Prince Terrence, who is temporarily taking charge of the country on his behalf, has not made any comment on this.

Not only did they not hold Herbert accountable for "killing innocent people", they didn't even hold the Duke of Silver Wing himself accountable.

As for the nobles who had lost their loved ones, they also keenly sensed something at this time and most of them remained silent.

Only a few idiots expressed their protest, and then disappeared the next day - they were not even dealt with by the kingdom, but by their own people.

Their disappearance did not cause any waves, and no one cared about the life or death of such idiots.

But this strange calmness made countless people feel the pressure doubled.

Just because it’s not happening now, doesn’t mean it will never happen.

Everyone knows this won't last forever.

Sure enough, on the night of the eleventh day, a major incident occurred in the Noble District, completely disrupting the peaceful situation.

Marquis Chuck—his family was wiped out.

This upstart of the Frost Crystal Kingdom, who was favored by the eldest prince, met his death less than two months after taking over the coal mining business.

In the entire Marquis's mansion, except for a few old maids and cooks, everyone else, including guards, a total of fifty-five people, no one was spared.

All the heads were chopped off and piled up in the middle of the yard, forming a five-story tower of human heads.

And because of the cold weather, the blood did not cause any reaction in other people, but instead helped freeze their heads firmly together.

When the small tower of human heads was discovered, a thin layer of frost and snow had accumulated on it, making it look like a miracle that appeared out of thin air!

The strangest thing is the expressions on those heads.

Their expressions before death seemed extremely peaceful, even a little happy, as if they happily welcomed death and allowed others to chop off their heads.

Only Marquis Chuck, who was standing at the top of the small tower of human heads, was different from the others. His expression was one of extreme fear and even madness.

It was as if after witnessing all this weirdness with his own eyes, he was finally beheaded at the moment of despair and collapse.

Who is the murderer?

Why do you do such a cruel thing?
Why did they want to exterminate Marquis Chuck's entire family?
No one knows the answers to these questions, but they all think of the same person - the white dove!

Could it be him who did it? !?
Is his strength really that strong?

Although Marquis Chuck's own strength is very poor, he can be regarded as a shame among the nobles, with only beginner's strength.

But after he earned a lot of wealth, he spared no expense in protecting himself and spent a lot of money to hire four high-level warriors!

Those long-famous adventurers all came from the same team. Years of tacit understanding made their cooperation very perfect, and they could be called the first echelon under the legend.

But such a powerful team silently became the second floor of the small tower of heads...

What exactly happened that night?
How strong is the person who made the move?

legend?

But even a legendary master couldn't do this, right?
These are all living people!
Even if you kill a chicken, it is impossible for it to not resist before dying, and it will definitely make a cry.

There shouldn't be any movement that can't be noticed by others.

But that's the fact, at night, no one knows.

Not to mention the others, let’s just talk about the other nobleman who lived next to Marquis Chuck’s residence. Not only did he notice it in the middle of the night, he was even one of the last few to know about it.

Out of caution, the family chose to stay indoors and not accept any visits from outsiders. It was not until the next afternoon that they learned about what had happened through the kingdom guards who came to check. The whole family was scared to death.

The reason why such a silent family murder was known to other people was because the murderer deliberately leaked the news to the outside world after doing so.

He arrogantly took the initiative to open the door of the Marquis's residence, so that the soldiers on patrol in the morning could clearly see the spectacle he left in the courtyard.

The murderer told everyone clearly, even provocatively, drawing their attention over - open your eyes and look at my masterpiece!

This bizarre murder of an entire family made everyone even more uneasy, and the already depressing atmosphere in the city became even heavier, adding a hint of madness to the fear.

What made the nobles feel most heavy-hearted was the attitude of the royal family.

Regarding this major case that would shock the whole country on normal days...the Frost Crystal Royal Family remained silent!

Correct!
Still silent!!!

Even because the murderer had swept away all the property in Marquis Chuck's mansion, the royal family directly classified the incident as a murder for money.

A robber with legendary strength wiped out an entire noble family just for such a small amount of money, instead of relying on him to gain greater benefits - such a ridiculous inference would naturally not convince anyone.

But the Frost Crystal Royal Family refused to make any comment or pursue any other responsibilities.

Oh, of course they didn’t say that directly. Although the royal family nominally said that they would send someone to investigate the matter, they would definitely give justice to Marquis Chuck’s family.

But everyone knew that this matter would never come to fruition, and Marquis Chuck would have died in vain.

No, his death was not without value.

Because of his tragic end, the dark side in the hearts of some nobles began to stir.

Just before they were ready to act...the second tragedy occurred.

Marquis Tim and his entire family were also killed.

They were both marquises, died in the same way, and were both favored by the eldest prince...

At this moment, the remaining nobles finally faced up to the reality—the current Frost Crystal King City was just a huge cage.

No one can escape!
