My Immoral Detective System
Chapter 31 - A Special Scout!
After reaching one of the palaces he chose randomly, he sneaked inside to see if this place belonged to that muddled boy. But when he got inside, he saw two familiar faces on the tea table on the ground. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes before he recovered his cold expression and stared at the scene before him.
"Father, why isn't his majesty giving Princess Lia the death sentence?!" The girl Zion had seen earlier with the Princess when he first arrived in this world. She whined and pouted while staring at Prince Linton sitting before her. "What's taking so much time?! Didn't you tell me that Lia would be out of sight sooner or later?"
Linton grimaced at her question and shook his head. "I don't know. When I had first decided to join the crown prince in his mission, I was told that the king would spend no effort in pushing the princess to her death!"
"So why did the crown prince change his methods?!" The girl's lower lips jutted out as if she was very displeased with the situation.
Linton narrowed his eyes at that. "I'm not too sure about this. Bradley was fine until Princess Lia was captured. After that, his temperament suddenly changed. It's as if he became completely another person: cruel and unpredictable."
The girl scoffed. "Wasn't he always like that?"
"Well, yes." When the prince thought about this, he really did feel like the crown prince was like that, but those qualities multiplied ten-folds! "Whatever, Edda, don't talk about this to anyone, alright?"
Edda smiled and said, "Of course! I just want that stupid princess to die!"
Zion frowned when he heard this. What exactly happened that changed the crown prince so much that even Prince Linton commented that the youth had become extreme? He didn't know, but he was willing to find out more about it.
So he kept listening to the words of these two. This girl, Edda, also seemed suspicious and harbored hatred for her cousin, Princess Lia. He still remembered the day when he had appeared in this world and seen these two girls sitting on the table like that. At that time, they acted as if they were best friends and didn't have a single trace of hatred in their hearts.
Even though he didn't know how Princess Lia felt about this Edda, the latter indeed hated the former.
Another thing he pondered about was the connection of the knife with this Lia. From what he heard, it was clear that this knife was planted as fake evidence that should have pushed the princess to her death's door, but he changed the villain's plan and altered the trajectory of the course, forcing the king to become affectionate to his daughter.
Perhaps this knife belonged to Lia!
As soon as he got this thought, he immediately aborted his mission to find that muddled boy. Instead, he made up his mind to find the princess in prison to ask her more about this knife.
At this time, he knocked on the system's door.
"What is it?" 007 instantly popped out and yawned.
Zion snorted after seeing this appearance. "Why are you always sleepy?"
"I don't mean to be sleepy, but recently, all you have been doing is cleaning the palace and sneaking around. Do some action!"
Zion rolled his eyes. He remembered what this system had told him earlier that the latter was made out of that Methu man's personality. Now that he thought about it, he could assume that both of them were unreliable people! Zion took a deep breath and calmly said, "Give me back my human form."
007's ears perked up at that. "Why?" The system acted as if he would watch a fantastic movie filled with action and the correct percentage of romance. So he suppressed his excitement and said, "You're going to act, aren't you? I suggest you start from that brothel!"
After saying this, the system went into a trance and imagined several scenes involving him and those women in the brothel. A line of saliva was already dripping from the corner of his lips, which made the entire scene look even more disgusting.
Zion wrinkled his nose. "Can you give me back my human form or not?"
The system was brought back to reality, and he glared at his host. "Fine. Just give me a word, and I'll send back your original identity. "
Zion nodded and made his way toward the prison. At this time, he already knew where the princess was locked. So he didn't bother searching for it and followed his memories. Since he went to that place in the past, he knew the way already, but after reaching a certain intersection point, he changed the path and kept hiding in the shadows.
The last time he went on the regular route, he had left several clues so that others could quickly follow and capture him. But this time, he didn't want a single soul to know about him. His eyes glanced in every direction as he continued to walk forward while keeping his guard up at all times.
What he didn't know was that no matter how powerful his scouting skills were, he couldn't be better than those who could use magic. In this world, there were several groups of people who would use magical powers. Among Dhampirs, half-magicians and half-elves could use magic at different levels. Of course, elves could mainly perform basic magic to fight and use magical weapons. In contrast, the royals could create those weapons and even use other techniques, such as planting a protective layer to keep a certain group of races away, creating magical weapons, doing daily households, and even scouting.
A few royals had found a few soldiers to instill this magical scouting technique in their minds, and one of these scouts had been following Zion around ever since this morning. It was a good thing that Zion hadn't changed his face yet. Otherwise, his secret would have been out in the open.
This scouting technique was strange and powerful. Dhampirs would just have to hide their breath and sense of presence from neighboring people through a spell. If there were only a few people, these magical scouts could hide easily, but they couldn't do well if the area contained more than seven people. So, for now, since Zion was accustomed to being alone, this scout didn't find it challenging to continue to follow him.
