Unlike the Black Cats, the Mystic Wolf tribe lived in the forest. Finding this place would be hard for the usual eyes if it was anyone but me.

The trees here were blue, and the wood was lightish pink. I could see the appeal of living in a place like this.

I had never seen this place yet, but I could tell that they had renovated their place. Checking around the forest, electronics from the humans were placed everywhere. I even spotted a horny wolf watching porn in his room.

The homes here looked cozy, made from wood. Everyone here lived in a cabin. But sightseeing wasn't what I came here for. I had someone to meet.

"Cracker, it's been a while."

Usually, I would forget the name of a person, but his name was something I doubted I would be able to forget. Locating where Cracker was, I teleported behind him.

Finding that I appeared out of nowhere, Cracker let out a slight fright. Compared to Gram, Cracker didn't have as much fear toward me as Gram did.

"Charles. Could I do something for you?"

He politely bowed and asked me what I wanted.

"Do you know anyone here with the power relating to death? I had asked Gram earlier, and he said you should know."

From Cracker's expression, he didn't know why I asked. Since that was the case, he probably wasn't involved with this mess.

"Actually, I do. Do you want me to bring you to her?"

"Lead the way."

Cracker didn't question why I asked. Seeing that I had asked, Cracker did as I said. He led the way to the person that could be the possible culprit.

Walking around with Cracker had caused a lot of attention toward us. The people of this village had many feelings upon seeing me. I tried to ignore them as I wanted to finish this search as quickly as possible.

The person who we were going to meet was close by. We had arrived at a house with Cracker knocking on the door. You would think that they would have a doorbell by now.

"Lemon!!! Someone important is here!"

The person called Lemon should be someone with that power. It didn't take long before a woman with dog ears that was in her twenties opened the door.

Once she saw me, her chief, Lemon, had a worried expression. There was some fear within her, but I doubt it had anything to do with the case. She was just afraid of me in general.

"Charles... Did I do anything wrong???"

"Probably."

"Probably???"

What I said wasn't wrong. If she was involved with this mess, I must take extreme action. Lemon was scared that I might do something terrible to her.

"You don't need to be worried. You won't have been harmed if you weren't involved in this incident."

"Could you tell me what incident it is?"

"You don't need to know. I will compensate you if you aren't the person. All I need to do is make you answer the questions truthly."please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

Lemon nodded, understanding what I wanted. She took a deep breath and calmed herself to the fullest. I applied a truth curse upon her. All her answers will now be spoken truthfully.

"Did you kill/kidnap anyone in the past few weeks."

"Yes."

The wolf opened her eyes widely, knowing she was forced to answer. The first question made her pretty suspicious real quick. She looked away awkwardly, knowing she had killed someone, probably leading to this incident.

"What did you kill and why?"

I couldn't jump to a conclusion immediately, so I had her expand on the previous question I had said earlier.

"Three human raiders were coming to our village. Once they saw me alone, they tried to assault me, so I defended myself and killed them."

Lemon had no guilt for what she had done. I also had no symphony for those three since what Lemon did was self-defense.

"Is that all you have done?"

The wolf nodded, and she clarified that this was the only thing she had done. I had to continue to question more thoroughly to make sure.

"Did you leave the forest within this week?"

"No."

From the looks of it, Lemon couldn't be the one who had done it. But to make sure, I had one question left.

"Have you seen this woman? If so, when was the last time you saw her?"

I had asked Lemon if she knew where Constance was. If she didn't know, then there was nothing I could do about it.

"I have seen her; the last time I saw her was a month ago."

Lemon might have been someone in the meeting when the world fused. If it was a month ago, then she was not the one that had anything to do with Constance.

"You are in the clear. This is your reward for your time."

What I had given Lemon was an artifact. It was a defense, one which nobody could complain about. Lemon was happy I kept my word and was staring at her artifact, seeing how shiny it was.

"Charles. Why don't you stay here for a while? It would be a shame if you left so early."

The more I wait, the longer Constance will be exposed to danger. Staying in this place seems peaceful, but the option to do so is impossible at the moment.

"Sorry, but I am in a time crunch. If I have the chance, I will visit again."

Cracker had a bright smile seeing that I had agreed. As for Lemon, she didn't care and looked at her artifact.

I left the village and searched for the nearest place to Necropolis. Finding the island from Necropolis was relatively easy.

What made Necropolis so special was its infinite night cycle. No matter what time it was, it would always be night. So all I needed to do was find a dark place with the sun above them.
