Chapter 168: Chapter 122 This was definitely not revealed by me (3)_3

Augustus was a true sly old fox; it didn’t matter whether Violet was Wozworth’s cousin or not. As long as Violet was brought back by Qin Chu and was not a witch, they would ultimately have to acknowledge her existence, or else it would displease Mr. Brave.

Given that, why not just readily accept it?

It wouldn’t offend Qin Chu and might even curry favor with him—a win-win situation.

Since Augustus had accepted, Saint Monica and Zimmerman exchanged glances, their brows slightly furrowed, but eventually, they also accepted this explanation.

"Now, onto the next issue, Catherine and Rose Vesper, you two left the Imperial City with Mr. Brave without permission...huh?"

Just then, Augustus seemed to suddenly sense something and pressed one hand to his ear.

Everyone knew Augustus was receiving Message Magic.

As Augustus’s frown grew deeper and his aura became increasingly gloomy, everyone grew curious as to what message he had received to cause such a reaction.

Though Onions could be dense, his efficiency was always praiseworthy... The evidence had been found, or rather, manufactured, which they were quite adept at.

After several seconds, Augustus sighed heavily and stood up. His golden eyes, radiating an arresting light, fixed on Karsas.

The aged figure walked step by step towards Karsas.

Rose Vesper’s expression altered slightly, her body instantly tense.

With each step closer, Augustus’s aura expanded, a misty presence swirling behind and above him. With each footfall, it seemed as if the Holy Hall itself was quaking.

Thump... Thump... Thump...

The dull sound resonated in everyone’s chests.

Although Augustus had not made any aggressive moves, the oppressive force had reached its peak in just a short time, and even the Magic Lamp in the Holy Hall seemed to flicker uncertainly under the influence of Augustus’s aura.

Wozworth, Saint Monica, and Zimmerman all straightened in their seats, their expressions grave.

"Augustus, what are you doing?" Saint Monica’s eyes narrowed as she asked in a grave tone.

Without answering Saint Monica’s question, Augustus’s cloudy gaze remained fixed on Karsas: ’Mr. Death Knight... The Holy Knights stationed near the Cavanias Mountains...’

"Were they killed by you?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.

Rose Vesper’s body jolted sharply, her complexion turning pale in an instant. With a swift motion, her gaze turned directly to Qin Chu.

She suspected that Qin Chu was behind this.

After all, the only people who had witnessed the scene were her, Catherine, Violet, and Qin Chu.

Catherine was one of their own and naturally would not speak out.

Violet followed Qin Chu’s orders completely, so barring a leak from Qin Chu himself, there seemed to be no other possibility.

The corners of Qin Chu’s mouth lifted almost imperceptibly, and the next second, as if he had been wronged or provoked, he exclaimed, "Rose Vesper, why are you looking at me like that?"

"I definitely didn’t leak this information!"

Rose Vesper felt darkness before her eyes and nearly fainted. It was over, she was implicated too!
