My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

Chapter 434: Chapter 434: Implications

"I did." The Left Guardian answered without even the slightest fluctuations in her expressions.

"I don't remember assigning this task to you, Kelia,," the dark robed man asked, his tone being strangely calm.

"I don't remember you being the Tower Master," the left guardian retorted with sarcasm.

Following her words, there was absolute silence for quite some time.

Following a long period of silence, the person known as the Guide in the Necromancer Tower sighed deeply.

"First, that lich ignored my instructions and got himself killed. And now you're doing the same? Are you also planning to get yourself killed?"

"Unless the Tower Master wants me dead, I will not die. Even you can't kill me, and you know that," Kelia stated, in the least friendly tone possible.

The Guide gazed at Kelia. His face was still expressionless even as he heard her taunts.

"Are you sure?" he asked the Left Guardian as multiple dark orbs materialized all around Kelia.

The orbs were made from the very unique flames of death that was the speciality of the Guide. It could kill a person from just touch, being much worse than Kelia's touch of decay.

The Hall Members who saw the scene taking place between the two high ranking members gulped down heavily, pretending to not see anything. They focused on the corpses, hoping that the two weren't going to start fighting.

All of them knew that if the two of them actually started fighting, it wasn't going to stop until one of them was dead.

With the Tower Master being absent, there was no one who could stop the two of them. No matter which one of them won, it was going to be the loss of the Necromancer Tower.

Fortunately, the Guide didn't attack Kelia. The dark spheres disappeared into thin air as if they had been nothing but a figment of imagination.

"So, what did you find out?" he asked the woman.

He had already noticed that the corpses belonged to the leaders of the Major Families. Only the leaders of the five strongest families were missing.

At this point, it was more or less confirmed that the information was accurate. Still, he wanted to hear from the person who had actually gone to the site.

Although Kelia didn't like the Guide much, she still told him everything that she managed to learn. She informed him about the possible involvement of other continental forces like the heroes.

She also talked about the two youngsters that she had brought back due to her suspicions. Although each of her sentences was enough to shock those in the Necromancer Tower, the Guide silently heard, only occasionally showing a response.

"We will only find out more after they are back to life," Kelia finished her explanation. "Let's see who is actually scheming against us and how much that knows about us."

For the next ten minutes, the two didn't speak to each other. They only looked at the members of the Hall of Life and Death. Their gazes made the hall members even more hesitant.

They gave this ceremony their all, realizing the importance as even the Guide was interested in it. Although they didn't know the reason for this urgency, they couldn't make a mistake.

After ten more minutes, the hall members finally stopped the ceremony, marking the completion.

....

"Do you think they will find out the real culprit?"

Back in the prison cell, Ruby had come to her senses. She had forgotten everything related to Eren's real identity, believing him to be her personal servant only.

Having forgotten the reality behind this incident, she was extremely curious about the person that killed her family. If anything, she was also praying that the Necromancer Tower was going to get important clues from the corpses.

"Finding the real culprit through the corpses?"

Eren didn't answer her question. He simply remained on the floor, as if it was a very comfortable bed for him to take rest. There was no unrest in his mind, as if everything was already prepared.

"I wonder how they will react..." He closed his eyes, a very minute smile appearing on his lips that was barely noticeable.

....

The Hall of Life and Death had completed the ceremony. The Hall Members stayed behind while the Hall Master approached the Left Guardian and the Guide.

There was no happiness on his face. Instead, his back was drenched in a cold sweat. He was cursing his luck for being the Hall Master at a time like this.

"Why aren't the corpses standing up?" Kelia waited for the corpses to stand up but they were lying in the center of the formation, just as lifeless as ever.

"This... Ah..." The Hall Master started stuttering, unable to even begin the explanation. His legs were trembling , as if he simply wanted to step away from these two monsters.

"Speak!" Kelia exclaimed, raising her hand. An unknown force appeared to grab the throat of the Hall Master, pulling him closer.

The guide waved his hand. A dark flame rushed out, destroying the invisible force to free the Hall Master.

"Don't forget that he is also a member of the Necromancer Tower. You should really behave," the Guide told Kelia, standing between her and the Hall Master.

"Tell me, why did it fail?" he asked the Hall Master.

He had seen many such ceremonies taking place. It didn't take long for him to realize that the ceremony was a failure. Just for that, he couldn't let the Hall Master be killed.

No matter what, the Hall Master was an important member of the Necromancer Tower, who was needed after Hell's Opening even more.

"I can't bring them back to life." The Hall Master lowered his head apologetically.

"For what reason?" The Guide asked.

"It's because there are no souls left inside the bodies..." The Hall Master answered, surprising even the Guide and Kelia.

Amongst the four continents, only the Necromancer Tower dealt with souls. Even if the others killed a person, they couldn't destroy the soul, unless it was an Overlord!

"Do you know what you are implying?!" The Guide frowned.
