Chapter 666: Interrogation

Emery turn anxious when he saw that a restriction had been placed on him, and soon he started to struggle only to discover that he couldn't get up from the chair

His attention quickly was diverted when he noticed one of the six people in the room walking towards his direction.

The person who showed himself in the dim visibility of the room was a very thin male magus, wearing a similar enforcer uniform just like the ones that escorted him to this eerie room.

"Emery Ambrose," the thin man said, "Elite class 7, planet 1002 Earth, lower realm."

The man started to recite his profile and every bit of information that had relation to him, as if trying to explain to the other five people in the room what they were dealing with. Rather, this narrative seemed to be aimed at the one standing further as Emery could clearly see how the thin man kept throwing glances at the person, the grand magus level figure.

"4 element affinities with a very low aptitude, dark core cultivation, and a savage wolf bloodline."

The last information was spoken with a different tone, one that Emery could distinguish clearly: disgust. Thanks to that, Emery quickly assumed that it was the prime reason as to why he was taken here.

"A young boy hailing from a lower realm, with a low aptitude and no future prospects to be a magus.. Still, despite all these shortcomings you have, you managed to display an impressive result at last year's Magus Game as well as this year's."

Emery tried hard to maintain his calm and continued to assess the situation he was in at the moment when he was suddenly slammed with a question.

"Emery Ambrose, answer me this… how much are you involved with the betrayal of the wolf bloodline?!" said the thin man in a loud voice, much to Emery's surprise.

However, upon hearing this question, the tension that Emery felt dissipated a bit as he felt relieved. This was because he knew he didn't have anything to do with the matter whatsoever. He didn't know anything about the issue until when he was notified that the Wolf Bloodline had defected to the enemy side.

Still, he was a bit worried if this situation would have something to do with Grand Magus Zenoia, as it could possibly reveal a few issues such as the existence of Khaos space on Earth or the fact that his master was in the middle of it.

The thin man seemed to have realized Emery's change of emotion as he glared at him and said, "You're definitely hiding something… you must know by now we are the enforcer, lying to us will only lead to unfortunate consequences… expulsion from the academy or worst"

Emery was irritated with the threat, but he still quickly schooled his expression and took a deep breath before opening his mouth, answering the question posed to him.

"I sincerely apologize for my earlier behavior, senior; I was thinking about something else. As for the answer to your question, I have to say that I have, in any way, no involvement at all. I don't know why they are betraying the magus alliance."

When Emery finished saying those things, he noticed that the symbols visible on the ground gave off a faint green glow. He didn't know what it was, but the thin man quickly wore an interesting expression on his face when he saw that green glow as well.

The thin man nodded his head and proceeded to open his mouth again. "Now tell me Emery, how often do you go to the Home of the Bloodline, Zodiac City?"

Emery then proceeded to explain, once when he was called to analyze and verify his bloodline, the second one when he was invited for the Wolf Bloodline's Rave Party.

After he finished saying that, the symbol marks on the ground started to glow red which naturally startled Emery. He wondered what had gone wrong when he suddenly recalled other instances where he visited Zodiac City.

"And, two more times to buy ingredients for my apothecary recipes."

The glow changed its color from red to green again; this made Emery realize what these symbols were for. They weren't just for sealing his power, but also able to act as a lie detector which would tell everyone whether he was telling the truth or not.

The thin man seemed to be amused by this.

"Why are you so nervous, Emery..? Just answer the question truthfully or else…"

Emery could no longer stop himself from rolling his eyes when he heard that. The magus in front of him had put him in such a situation and even threatened him, but was still asking why he was nervous.

Probably, it was supposed to be this thin magus who needed to be questioned whether he was still right in the head or not.

Nevertheless, Emery felt relief as he knew he had nothing to hide about this. However, the next question that the thin magus threw at him caught him off guard.

"Is it true that during the so-called Rave Party, you met the White Clan Chief, Beowlf and a dozen of the wolf bloodline's pack leaders?"

"Yes." Emery answered calmly. He had no reason to hide such matters, so he answered truthfully.

"Is it true that you met Patriarch Lucius privately in that said Rave?"

Emery showed a look of worry before he answered, this time hesitantly. "Yes.."

The thin man nodded his head at his answer. Then suddenly, his gaze turned sharp as he said,

"Now, Emery, answer this question honestly: Did Patriarch Lucius give you a note that you later gave to the infamous bloodline shop in Zodiac City known to be the front for the traitorous Serpent Bloodline?"

Emery was taken aback when he realized what the thin man was suggesting with his words. The note given by the patriarch was the Blood Moon Ritual that he used to create a pact with the Fey Sisters; it wasn't for Bob the Frog.

Thanks to this, Emery subconsciously said no which made the symbols glow red. Noticing this, he quickly said, "Yes."

Alas, the fleeting sight of red didn't manage to escape from the thin magus' eyes.

"What are you trying to hide, Emery?!"

At the moment, Emery was confused as to why the symbols glow red. He was about to explain his part of the story when the thin magus asked him a question once more.

"Did you or did you not know about the bloodline shop from the patriarch?!"

He actually did, but it was not because of the note. Instead, it was purely because Bob was the only one who knew how to make the Fey bloodline Serum.

"Yes, I did know about the shop's existence from the patriarch, but it was not for that reason! Stop, let me explain!!" shouted Emery when he saw the thin magus was about to throw another question that could possibly push him deeper to this quagmire of misunderstanding.

Fortunately, the other party was willing to listen. Without further ado, afraid that the thin magus would bombard him with another volley of questions, Emery narrated his part of the story from the beginning to the end; the whole time, the symbol marks on the group kept giving off green glow.

The thin man, however, said something that truly made Emery think the former had something wrong in his head. "The mark only tells others what you feel as the truth, thus not necessarily the real truth."

Without giving Emery a chance to ask what his earlier words meant, the man continued his monologue which further confused him.

"Lucius Cornivus, the Patriarch of the White Clan, your clan, was recently added as the number one wanted man for the magus alliance. Your brief interaction with him made you one of the witnesses that connected him with the Snake Bloodline."

This was definitely a preposterous allegation on his part, so Emery was quick to voice a disagreement.

"Emery Ambrose, then tell me; how can you prove that the item given was such a scroll and not a secret note directed to the Snake Bloodline. You have to give us a sound argument to convince us that you hadn't been involved in the middle of this.!"

Emery thought hard, trying to think of a way to prove his innocence. However, he noticed that everyone in the room seemed to be showing some faint movements, which he concluded that they were basically convinced that he was at fault.

At the moment, Emery only had the note to be his proof of innocence; the Fey Bloodline recipe he got from Bob the Frog, so he quickly showed it to them, to be precise, the thin man. Unexpectedly, the thin man showed a look of extreme surprise when he saw the contents of the note.

"This is a recipe of values! How can a lower realm acolyte like you can afford such expensive and rare ingredients?..Tell me how much and how you were able to pay for such a recipe!"

Emery was stunned as he was reminded of a certain soft and warm touch on his lips, before a certain girl shoved the recipe into his hand for free and completely disappeared from him.

How could he possibly explain all that?

Explain that he got the recipe for free?

In the end, Emery decided to stay quiet for a while as he thought about what he should say.

Seeing how Emery reacted to the question, the thin magus turned visibly more excited as he blurted out more and more accusations.

"Admit it! Admit it now!!"

"It is a fact that you have secret conversation with Lucius Corvinus"

"It is a fact that he secretly gave you a note"

_{The latest_epi_sodes are on_the novel35.COM website.}

"It is a fact that you know about the bloodline shop from the patriarch"

"It is also a fact that you went to the bloodline shop and received this said note a day before the attack at the headquarters of the magus alliance, which you 'coincidentally' also attended!"

"This matter just became more and more suspicious!"

"What is your defense, Emery Ambrose!?"

Hearing the series of accusations leveled against him, Emery could only say, "It's all not true."

And once again, the floor glowed red; which led to the magus didn't seem to take Emery's answer seriously.

"Hahaha! How can a fact be not true!"

The thin magus turned his body around toward the others in the room.

"My colleagues, it's my belief that this new Savage Acolyte, Champion of Magus Game, is really a hidden talent… He is, in fact, a talented spy of the enemy! It was well documented that he was found in contact with the elves on his first year in Magus Academy, and since then, he has been having a remarkable improvement in his cultivation! I can't help but believe all his achievements were only possible because of the help he received from the enemy!"

"That's not true!!" Emery said, "Not true!!"

He could only utter such words, as he really couldn't think of anything else. Unexpectedly, the grand magus figure who was hidden in the shadow suddenly made a move and walked into the light.

It was apparently a female grand magus with short black hair, wearing a uniform Emery could not recognize its origin.

Casting her gaze at the thin magus, she said, "Don't be over-excited. This matter needed to be thoroughly investigated. We don't have time for meaningless goose chase."

The thin magus turned visibly pale and nodded in panic when he heard the female grand magus' words.

Ignoring the former, she turned her eyes at Emery and said,

"I however have a question… tell me acolyte… how can a new wolf blood from a lower realm like you get an audience with the patriarch in the first place?"

Hearing the question, Emery quickly scoured inside his memory trying to find the answer. Moments later, he finally found it.

"It was the previous headmaster, Altus Dresden who told me about the patriarch."

The female grand magus had a slight smile on her face when she heard that.

"You will stay here until we make some confirmation."

Emery was not given a chance to say anything, as she immediately turned around and walked into the shadows again. The thin magus gave him one last look before following her.

Not long after, everyone in the room left one by one, leaving Emery alone in the chair still unable to get up.
