The Witch Hunter System

Chapter 934: Death's Mystery



Pak!

Narvim suddenly received a resounding smack on the head by Khaleesi. His foolish smile was quickly wiped off his face, replaced by surprise and confusion. He stared at his wife questioningly.

However, she didn't give him a verbal reply. She grunted and signaled with her eyes.

"Ahem, Esme, my child," Narvim coughed before asking, "Can you also call me Papa?"

Narvim tried to be as gentle and warm as possible, but his sudden approach still came off as a pretty strong and intimidating dragon. As such, Esme was frightened into fleeing, switching back out with Eniwse.

"You scared Esme off, Papa," Eniwse stated wryly.

She had never known of Esme's existence until recently. However, Esme had always been watching everything through the lens of her eyes. Thus, although she shared everything she had experienced, Esme still didn't experience them personally.

Esme has always been hiding behind a layer of shield known as Eniwse. As such, now that she had come out into the world herself, she felt vulnerable and timid.

Her years of recess have led her to develop an extremely introverted mindset.

Nevertheless, Narvim felt helpless after hearing Eniwse's statement. It wasn't his intention, but it still happened.

Was he that scary?

Narvim felt a little depressed that he could not get along well with Esme like his wife did. He also wanted to get along with such a cute daughter.

Esme was like the second daughter they always wanted but never had because Eniwse's death was too big of a blow to them that it made their relationship estranged for so many years.

"Right, Papa. There's something I find strange regarding my death," Eniwse suddenly mentioned.

Swoosh!

In an instant, the atmosphere turned heavy and depressive due to Eniwse's topic. It was a sore spot in everyone's heart.

Nevertheless, Eniwse's death was a mysterious that even Narvim couldn't wrap his head around it.

When he had sensed his daughter's diminishing life force, he had rushed over as quickly as he could. Even still, he was too late.

All he found at the scene was his daughter's decapitated body on top of a fallen titan. The environmental devastation suggested a tough battle that ultimately resulted in his daughter's victory.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

However, his daughter's decapitation also suggested she died without even being able to put up any resistance. Obviously, she didn't die from mutual destruction with the colossal titan, but something else.

Unfortunately, he could never figure out the culprit. Either the assassin was extremely skilled or extremely powerful. Both were terrifying possibilities.

"What did you find strange, my child?" Narvim asked seriously after calming his nerves. "I remember that shortly after defeating the Mountain King of the Hundred Shadow Peaks, I was immediately slain by a powerful water spell," Eniwse mentioned with a big frown.

"The spell was far too swift and sharp that I couldn't even sense it until my head was severed from my body. Moreover, it seemed like a very casual attack from my killer. She also possessed a very charming and womanly voice."

"However, as far as I know, I don't remember the Titanfall Territory having any female

Divine Beings who were skilled in water magic. Even if we look at Gehenna as a whole, there shouldn't be many, if any, who fit the description, right?" Eniwse doubted.

"This..." Narvim frowned deeply.

Within the nine territories of Gehenna, there were seven widely known Divine Beings, the seven Great Devils. However, under them were even more Divine Beings, though the numbers were never made public.

Even so, most Divine Beings under the rule of the Great Devils usually cultivated the same laws and abilities as the Great Devils. As such, if they were to just look at the Great Devils, then there was indeed none who specialized in water magic.

In other words, Eniwse's killer had a low probability of being someone among their groups.

However, besides the seven Great Devils and the divine groups under them, there were also many unaccounted Divine Beings in Gehenna.

For example, no one knew how many Divine-rank sea monsters were lurking in the depths of the Darksea Abyss Territory. But it was also undeniable that the Darksea Abyss Territory hosted Divine-rank sea monsters.

Since sea monsters all had natural water affinity, did his daughter's killer come from there?

"Oh, right, Papa. I also remembered the person mumbling that I had destroyed her experimental subject."

"The Mountain King of the Hundred Shadow Peaks was someone's experimental subject?"

Narvim and Khaleesi were both astonished and startled after receiving the new piece of information. Eniwse's killer seemed even more mysterious and powerful.

Since the unknown killer possessed enough intelligence to conduct experiments, it was unlikely to be a Divine-rank sea monster that had left the Darksea Abyss Territory.

More importantly, the unknown killer was able to conduct secret experiments in the Titanfall Territory.

If Great Devil Helcan had no knowledge of this unknown killer's existence, then the person's power was likely even above the Great Devil's.

Just who was it?

Seeing Narvim and Khaleesi frown in deep thought, Eniwse understood that they didn't have the slightest clue who her killer could be.

"Papa. Mama. I'm thinking about looking for Lord Mephistopheles to help me look into this," Eniwse shockingly announced before commenting, "I wonder if he still remembers me?" "W-What? That's not just someone you can just find and ask for a favor. Why would you say that?" Khaleesi expressed her shock.

"Eh?" Eniwse looked back at her parents with surprise before saying, "Didn't I mention it before? Lord Mephistopheles and I became friends by chance, though our relationship was more like that of an uncle and a niece..."

It suddenly dawned on them why the Red Dragon Clan migrated to Pangea as soon as its existence connected to Gehenna.

Their Dragon God was a Divine Being who didn't belong to any of the Titan Clans in Helcan's Titanfall Territory. As such, their Red Dragon Clan has always been considered a thorn that

could threaten Helcan's authority one day.

They were also oppressed because of that.

Fortunately, they had Mephistopheles's ambiguous favor for several centuries. Thus, their clan was able to thrive somewhat in the Titanfall Territory.

Now that they think about it, the day the clan's vague relationship with Mephistopheles soured was also the day Eniwse's death was known.

Narvim and Khaleesi looked at their daughter a little speechlessly.

How on earth did she befriend one of the mighty rulers of Gehenna?
