The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

And Night Song, that loyal servant with the gargoyle bloodline, hasn't he always been carrying out Zakro's orders?

Why have they all disappeared?!

Kamu felt an indescribable fear, his body trembling slightly.

Only at this moment did he suddenly realize that the "family pillar" he had always relied on was not as solid as he imagined.

At this critical moment between life and death, they all vanished!

Kamu clenched his teeth, flung off the robe behind him, and hurriedly walked down from the tower.

He must find Zakro before everything becomes irreparable!

Although he didn't want to rely on that old man, the political resources of the Dragon family were mostly in his hands. That guy claimed to be retired but never truly surrendered his power.

The more Kamu thought about it, the angrier he became, and he couldn't help cursing as he hurried downstairs.

The main hall of the manor, usually a place where nobles held banquets and negotiations, was typically unoccupied, but now it was crowded with anxious Horror Demons.

As members of the Dragon family, they were usually so arrogant, walking through the streets of Demon City as if they were emperors on a parade, but now they were whispering in the hall, exchanging terrified glances.

"Damn... people from the Truth Department!"

"How could they come here?!"

"I heard it's because of the Black Wind Castle issue that got too big..."

"Shouldn't they go find the lord there?! What are they doing here looking for us?!"

"I heard... they seem to have found evidence related to us."

"This is slander and framing!"

"It's no use saying that now... quickly think of a way!"

Listening to the discussions in the hall, the servants shrank into a corner, afraid to make any sound, lest they anger these nobles.

When Kamu stepped into the hall, all eyes instantly fell on him.

A member of a side branch of the family immediately stepped forward, lowering his voice to urgently inquire.

"Family Head! What's going on outside? Why would the Judgers of the Truth Department surround the manor?!"

"Is it the Demon King's conspiracy?! You must go and explain to them!"

"This must be a misunderstanding! We need to clear this up in Parliament!"

Everyone was asking, everyone was hoping for an answer, but Kamu couldn't utter a single word.

His whole body was stiff, his throat seemingly choked by something, his face livid.

"I... don't know..."

He managed to squeeze out a few words with extreme difficulty, looking extremely grim, "Elder Zakro... has anyone seen where he is?"

Everyone looked at each other, faces filled with bewilderment, followed by fear after that bewilderment.

The sound of discussion quickly spread, a sense of anxiety pervading the air like a plague.

Looking at the frightened family members, Kamu swallowed hard with difficulty and said in a trembling voice.

"We must find Elder Zakro first! He must know what to do—"

"Enough!!!"

At that moment, the doors of the hall were suddenly pushed open with a heavy footstep sounding exceptionally jarring in this oppressive space.

The voice, clear and furious like never before, hammered into everyone's eardrums.

Everyone instinctively turned to look, seeing a burly figure stride into the hall.

It was Xino Dragon, Kamu's younger brother, someone considered a "fool" within the family!

However, at this very moment, standing in the hall Xino was different from the anxious crowd, his face beneath the horns showing an unusual clarity.

His face was heavy, his gaze sweeping over everyone in the hall like a knife before finally stopping on Kamu Dragon's face, filled with long-suppressed anger.

He roared in a low voice.

"Elder Zakro? At a time like this, you're still looking for that guy!"

Kamu glared at this fool with an imposing yet cowardly bearing.

"What do you know—"

"I don't understand!"

Xino stepped forward, his eyes blazing as he stared at his strong yet cowardly brother, yelling angrily.

"I don't understand! Why! Clearly, it is you, Kamu Dragon, you are the master of this house! From the moment you became the Family Head, the fate of this family has been in your hands! Why do you want to be that old man's puppet, leading all of us as his pawns!"

His words were like thunder, fiercely striking in the hall.

In an instant, the whole hall fell silent, every breath seeming to stop.

Kamu stood there, his face flashing between green and white. He had never seen Xino speak to him in such a tone, much less expected this brat to expose a fact so humiliating yet shameful to admit.

Indeed—

He was really no different from Zakro's puppet.

But what could he do?!

The whole family from top to bottom relied on that old man, even the servants wouldn't listen to him!

And now, even this Silver Level Horror Demon dared to defy him.

"I… what about you… daring to talk to me like that, who is backing you?"

Kamu suddenly understood something, squinting his eyes at his brother, his voice gradually turning cold, a malicious smile curling up at the corners of his mouth.

"Haha, I see, no wonder we lost, the traitor was among us all along—"

His words were interrupted by a voice full of disappointment.

"My friend told me that someone who is used to being a servant sees everyone as a servant, even if they trip on the street, they still need to find a master to blame," Xino looked at Kamu, with disappointment in his eyes, along with a trace of pity, "Brother... when did you become like this."
