Chapter 2118 Death of an Emsgate Warrior
Chapter 2118 Death of an Emsgate Warrior
That evening, many organizations had traveled far from Emsgate to Bainbridge.
In order to host them, Aurelius had spent a lot to buy a huge and remote villa. Currently scattered all
around the living room of that villa were representatives from Emsgate.
Soon, Fabien arrived. The instant he stepped through the door, he sensed an unusually heavy
atmosphere in the room. The quiet room instantly burst into noise when everyone spotted him.
A man in his fifties shot to his feet. His gaze was trained on Fabien the entire time. This man was
Kosma Holst, an elder of the One Bird Clan, a hidden sect of Emsgate.
"What is the meaning of this, Fabien Blanc?"
Kosma pointed at the corpse lying in the middle of the room.
Fabien was shocked because he knew the person.
"Is that the team leader?" he gasped.
"We were sharing a pot of tea just earlier today. What happened to him?"
"Stop pretending, Fabien," someone barked.
"As you've mentioned, he talked to you earlier today."
"Now, after sunset, he is dead. Don't you find that suspicious?"
The person who spoke was Baltazar.
Fabien shot him a bland look.
When he next spoke, he spoke slowly and languidly.
"Mr. Dupont, do you mean to say I was involved in his death?"
Baltazar replied with a scoff, "You said it yourself."
He used to be afraid of Fabien. However, he was now backed up by the many forces of Emsgate that
were present in Bainbridge.
Hence, he now spoke with arrogance and confidence. His response merely garnered him another calm
look from Fabien.
"Mr. Dupont, please provide evidence when accusing others," Fabien stated.
"You have no proof, which means you can also be a suspect in his death."
"You..."
Baltazar was interrupted before he could finish speaking.
There was a loud commotion at the door.
"Come, come. Masters, please head inside. This way."
It was Aurelius, the head of the Damrons.
He was leading the higher-ups of the Herbal Association and elites from the Harmonious Fields Society
through the crowd.
The group was shocked when they walked into the living room to find a corpse in the middle of the
room.
The face of Nozdrin Dall, who was at the head of the group, immediately clouded over.
"What is the meaning of this, Master Damron?" he spat out.
Aurelius had gone stark white when he saw the corpse.
He had only just gone out to escort a group back to the villa.
How could these people leave a corpse waiting in the living room to greet the group?
That would bring bad luck!
Even pushovers had their limits.
There was a stormy look on his face.
"Sirs, I welcomed you here with utmost sincerity."
"Don't you think this is a little disrespectful?"
It was then that Kosma and the others realized they had acted too hastily.
"My apologies, Master Dall," Kosma said. "This is the death of a member of One Bird Clan's inner
circle, though. As an elder of the clan, I must get to the bottom of this."
He then briefed the group on the events that had happened.
The ugly look on Nozdrin's face only faded away slightly when he heard the explanation.
Since there was a logical reason for the corpse's location, he decided to overlook the disrespect.
"What is the point of debating? Have we found the cause of death?" Nozdrin asked.
His question made Baltazar and the others look down in shame.
They knew what the cause of death was.
However, there were no wounds found on the body except for a few internal injuries.
Fabien had been regarded as the prime suspect because he had seen the dead man just a few hours
ago.
Their silence made Nozdrin turn around to address the group behind him. Reаd at Dramanovеls.com
"Look into the cause of death," he commanded. NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
A few Harmonious Fields Society members stepped out from the group.
After a series of brief checks, they had an answer.
"He died due to internal bleeding," they concluded.
"Master Holst, I believe you know exactly how he was injured?"
