Chapter 303: Guarding and Stealing

Herage picked up the rose carved from wood and looked at it in his hand. ̲x̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

This rose is very delicately carved, and you can see that the carver has extremely exquisite craftsmanship. This flower can be called a work of art.

This rose carved from wood would be a nice craft if it weren't for the purple bug squirming inside.

In fact, Herage knew that Muse was an Abyss cultist at the first sight.

The strong aura of the abyssal plane on Muse's body was simply too obvious in Herage's eyes.

But he couldn't say, because he couldn't say that Muse was an Abyss cultist without any basis.

Herage then thought that someone gave Max's wood carving to Amisha, but Amisha did not become an Abyss cultist, but the servant in her family became an Abyss cultist.

He quickly guessed whether this servant stole Amisha's birthday gift and was accidentally seduced by the monster in the wood carving and became an Abyss cultist.

Herage still didn't show any abnormality when he thought of this, but after checking that there was no wood carving in the birthday gift, he basically determined what happened.

In the following questions about Muse, Herage observed Muse's breathing, heartbeat, and eyes, and could tell that he was lying, so it was almost certain that he was lying.

Now that this wooden carved rose has been found in Muse's house, there is conclusive evidence that Muse is indeed an Abyss cultist.

Herage held the wooden rose, turned around and asked, "Muse, how do you explain this wooden rose?"

Muse looked at the rose, her breathing became a little rapid, and she stammered in defense: "I...I don't...don't know, maybe...it was left in it by the previous people, and it was... I'm fine."

"Miss, please step back." Blanc immediately stood in front of Amisha to prevent the muse from jumping over the wall and hurting Amisha.

While Amisha is officially a wizard, Muse is just an ordinary person.

But this was still Blanc's subconscious behavior. After confirming that there was indeed something wrong with Muse, his first thought was to protect the safety of his young lady.

"Muse! I didn't expect you would actually dare to touch my things!" Amisha scolded angrily.

"No...I...I didn't..." Muse was completely panicked at this moment.

His head felt like it had been hit by a heavy hammer, and it had become completely blank.

Muse knew exactly what was going on. Last year, he secretly stole two Amisha's birthday gifts and planned to sell them on the black market to make some money.

He didn't dare to steal more, but only took two small gift boxes.

He didn't dare to take the big box. It would be too obvious to take it away, and it would be inconvenient to take it with him.

This wooden carved rose was contained in a small, slender box. The muse put it in her clothes and stole it without anyone noticing. ♡

This is not the first time that Muse has done this kind of thing. He knows that the lady will not care about these gifts in the warehouse, and even if he steals some, he will not be discovered.

But he never expected that he would be discovered this time.

When Blanc was called to the warehouse, Muse did not realize the seriousness of the problem and thought he was just taking some things.

When he heard that it was last year's birthday present, Muse's heart thumped and she felt something bad.

At this time, he still had a sense of luck, thinking that it was not necessarily to find the two things he had stolen.

But Herage used magic induction to mention the word wood carving.

Muse felt as if the sky was falling. Since the man in front of him had clearly stated that he was looking for wood carvings, he was probably looking for things related to the Abyss cultists.

Muse knew that through that wooden sculpture, he could communicate with the great beings in the abyss plane, thereby gaining some power from the great beings.

He also knew that this kind of people were called Abyss cultists, and once they were discovered, they would be dead.

Muse has been praying in his heart, praying to the great gods to protect him and let him escape this disaster.

It was not until Herage smashed the wooden board under the wardrobe and took out the wooden rose that Muse's hope was completely shattered.

All is lost.

Muse's mind went blank, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.

When he came back to his senses, he found Blanc looking at him warily, and Amisha standing behind Blanc with her hands on her hips and glaring at him.

The young man named Herrag across from him was looking at him with a smile, holding a rose in his hand.

run!

When Muse saw this scene, the first thing he thought of was to run.

If you don't run you'll die, if you're caught you'll die.

Muse only had this idea in her mind, and never thought about how an ordinary person could escape in front of a wizard.

The moment he turned around, he felt that his whole body was stiff and unable to move.

"Darkness Imprisonment." The magic power in Herage's hand gathered and directly imprisoned Muse who wanted to escape.

He was very happy now. He didn't expect to catch an abyss cultist in the Mori family. This was all a contribution.

Herage took out a test tube, folded the wooden rose in half, clamped the purple worm inside with tweezers, and put the little monster into the test tube.

This monster is ironclad proof and a contribution.

When Amisha saw the purple worm, her face turned pale and she took a step back involuntarily.

She was a little glad that she had not opened this gift box.

I never expected that such a beautiful rose would contain such a terrifying insect inside.

Amisha felt scared when she thought about it.

Herague put the test tube into the space ring, took out the runestones and sent a message to Preiss: "When I was investigating the Mori family, I found that a servant was probably an abyss cultist. A monster bug was found in the rose."

Preuss quickly replied: "Very good! You bring back everyone and everything. I'm too busy now to come here in person. How strong is that person? Can he control it?"

If the opponent is too strong, Prius will send some reinforcements.

If Herage can solve it by himself, then he can bring it back by himself and save some manpower.

"Just an ordinary person, no problem, I'll be right back." Herage replied.

"Okay, be more careful on the road." Preuss instructed.

Herage put down the runestone and said to Blanc: "Miss Amisha, Mr. Blanc, I now suspect that this muse is an abyss cultist, so I need to take him to the city hall for interrogation."

Because I am a member of the Mori family, I still have to say something.

Of course, this is just a notification, not a discussion with them.

Blanc nodded and said: "Understood, I'll drive you off right away."

It was about the Abyss cultists, and Blanc didn't dare to delay, let alone stop it.

There is an Abyss cultist in the Mori family, and what happens next is not that simple. There will be a strict investigation within the family.
