Chapter 1024 Interrogation

*Huft!*

*Huft!*

The knight was panting as he gradually opened his eyes. The blurry vision made him want to go back to sleep as if the torture he had earlier was just a dream.

But Theo's voice soon entered his ears, waking him up.

"Since you have woken up, it's time for you to start talking."

The knight was shocked but had no energy to show it in his expression. Instead, he raised his head weakly, looking at Theo with his blurry vision. "Joker… My friends…"

His head swayed left and right as though he was searching for his five friends, but Theo simply stated, "Give me the information I want, and I will answer your question."

The knight wanted to remember what happened, but constant pain in his legs and arms prevented him from thinking.

"Why did you want to kill me? Who ordered you?"

"Where is this?" The knight answered his question with another question.

After seeing their reaction, he knew that the monsters were the culprit, so he answered, "This place is outside what you call hunting grounds. Answer my question, who ordered you?"

"I need to see my friends first." Even though his head couldn't focus, he certainly remembered his friends.

Annoyed by his reaction, Theo used his Illusion Manipulation to make him hear a woman's scream.

"Aaaaahhhh! I don't want to die."

"…lla?" The knight turned to the left and said, "No. Don't do anything to my friends."

"Answer my question."

"I…" The knight hesitated as he never expected that Joker would be this cruel. At the same time, he thought he deserved this treatment for killing many people from the Star Group.

To stop Theo from hurting his teammates, he immediately answered, "The troll… The troll ordered us. We were supposed to kill him, but twenty Rare Class Monsters ambushed us in his cave."

'Twenty Rare Class Monsters? Considering the troll is a General Class Monster, he should have chosen the best Rare Class Monsters to protect him.' Theo narrowed his eyes and uttered another question. "Where is he? And what did he do to you?"

"He… You can go to his place through the hole on the ground. You have seen them… There are ten holes scattered around the savanna, and my team went through one of them before getting ambushed.

"They captured us and brought us to his cave. The troll ate humans, so we were ordered to bring in people to feed him in exchange for survival.

"I just wanted to save my friends…" The knight gradually gathered his focus. He felt that someone intentionally made his vision blurry.

And when he regained a bit of his mind, he raised his head, finding he was surrounded by mist. It turned out the blurry vision was due to the mist.

"Does his place have traps? What is his strength? How about those Rare Class Monsters?" Theo continued without caring about his situation.

"The place doesn't have traps, but they seem to be aware of our arrival. The troll didn't show us his strength, but the Rare Class…" He suddenly fell silent as he finally regained his clear mind.

The knight raised his head and squinted his eyes before finding a shadow behind the mist. "Joker… You killed my friends!"

He wanted to leap right now but to no avail. When he lowered his vision, he found himself tied into a boulder and his feet had been impaled to the ground by two swords.

In that instant, the situation was clear in his head. Theo never meant to save them.

The mist gradually became clear, revealing Theo's appearance. He looked down on him while saying, "You're not expecting me to save you, right? After all, you almost killed me by siding with the troll."

"I… No, that's not important. I heard my friend…" He turned around and saw no one. He tried to stand up even though he was tied to a giant boulder without hesitation.

"Since you have no more use for me, then…" Theo waved his sword before the knight could do anything, sending his head flying. "Don't think about getting out here alive."

If they didn't try to trap him, he might save them as what he was supposed to do as a member of the Star Group. However, there were two more people he interrogated earlier. They told him that there were multiple people from the Star Group who had died under their schemes.

Even though it was for survival, he thought there was no need for them to be alive anymore.

This scene just reminded him of when he almost died back in Thersland.

Of course, the other two had died as well. There was no trace of sympathy when he killed them because they were crazier than the knight. In fact, he was disgusted by their characters.

After getting the information, Theo formed Magic Bullets and shot the corpse until only the blood remained. With the amount of blood and bodies scattered around the area, people would only think this was the blood of monsters instead of a human.

So, no one would suspect him about the disappearance of these people.

"According to them, the troll seemed to be able to use schemes. His base was underground and because the hunting grounds were scattered around the area, the base should be in the center… The problem is the depth.

"Other than that, the twenty Rare Class Monsters are quite concerning. They can capture many people from the Star Group, so it's clear they are on the stronger side. I might not be able to win against them by myself.

"Do I need to search for another group and ask them to fight together? It's going to be easier for me, but how do I even find them?

"The time limit is almost up and I need to get going soon, so I want to end this mission as soon as possible.

"Hence, the only way to do it is to kill the troll myself. But there are those problems…" Theo looked down, falling into deep thought.

He was formulating plan after plan to see which one might work with the troll's intelligence.

After an hour, Theo suddenly muttered, "It seems I need my clone."
