The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 516 - Interrogation

Jin Rou was taken to the the one of the most guarded places of True Word Kingdom, Repentance. It was the prison and interrogation place of the kingdom itself where the suspicious people were detained until proven guilty or not guilty.

Since Jin Rou entered the kingdom uninvited, it was natural that the kingdom would respond to this and immediately dispatch people to fetch him. It was natural so Jin Rou didn't resist.

In a large white spacious room, there was a wooden table and two chairs opposite to each other. Jin Rou was sitting on one of the chairs and Tiresh Abhold was sitting the other. But the difference was Jin Rou was tied up and sealed, while Tiresh wasn't. One more thing to notice of was there was a small bell by the side. It was an artifact that would tell if the one being interrogated was lying or saying the truth.

Tiresh Abhold was looking at Jin Rou with cold and sharp eyes. She was looking at the possible hints of why this man appeared here in this kingdom. Did he bear illwill, malice, or fortunes? Only by asking him would reveal the answers itself.

"What is your name?" Tiresh Abhold started her interrogation.

"Jin." Jin Rou answered casually.

"Last name." Tiresh Abhold's tone was getting colder.

"Rou." Jin Rou answered.

"What a strange name." Tiresh Abhold raised her brow. It was the first time she heard of this last name here. Was there any clans with the last name Rou here? Perhaps none. Does other kingdoms have this clan? Of course, it's impossible. She very well knew the clans and whatnot of other countries. The Liebell didn't ring, so the name given was true.

"Where are you from?" Tiresh Abhold asked the next question.

"Rou Celestial Realm." Jin Rou didn't beat around the bush.

Tiresh Abhold looked at the bell, and it didn't ring, "Where is this place?"

"You aren't qualified to know." Jin Rou shook his head. It was true that the other party wasn't qualified to know this.

Tiresh Abhold almost stood up and slash the young man's throat out of fury. She wasn't qualified to know it? She was the best knight of this kingdom that commanded respect and prestige, yet this young man dared to question her qualifications?

"The bell didn't ring, so get yourself together if you don't want to be in trouble." Jin Rou said with a playful smile.

"Who are you to say that to me?" Tiresh Abhold's eyes were getting redder.

"No, let me slap it back to you. Who are you to do this to me? I am yet to be proven guilty, and you are already treating me like one with my hands and feet cuffed and sealed. I just said a casual remark about something, yet you feel like I already stepped on you? I have gone with you here to clarify the misunderstanding, so you better don't see me as a pushover. Or you might see your whole kingdom becoming history today." Jin Rou's words were very cold. Anyone who knew him would step back for so many times now. He wasn't joking, and he could really make this kingdom disappear in his whim.

"You..." Tiresh Abhold couldn't say what she wanted to say. She could feel extreme danger coming from this young man that she choked her words. It was like she was being drowned in the bottom of abyss, beyond saving. Why did she feel frightened upon looking in the young man's eyes? What was this creeping fear crawling inside her?

"Now, to end this useless interrogation. Let me tell you this." Jin Rou unsealed the cuffs binding him and sat like a king, "I am not an enemy, and I don't intend to make your kingdom my enemy. I am nothing but a mere passerby here."

Tiresh Abhold looked at the bell, and again it didn't ring. It just meant that the other party was saying the truth.

"Then why are you here?" She asked. At least, she deserved to know this right?

"I am waiting for the Uncrossable Sea to separate its water." Jin Rou said.

"You want to cross that sea?" Tiresh Abhold was shocked, "Do you know that existences of the darkness are lurking there? For them, that period will be the day of their hunt. It has been so long now since the last time the Uncrossable Sea separated. So I'm sure that the existences there are starving like hell. Do note, they are powerful enough that even emperors were killed there in the past!"

"I have long known that, and I'm perfectly aware." Jin Rou said, "No matter. If they come, the better. I want to spread blood in the sea during my crossing anyways."

"Are you nuts?" Tiresh Abhold wanted to smack this young man, "That place is filled with extreme dangers that you couldn't imagine! There is also a rumor that says there is a dark overlord slumbering by the deepest part of the Uncrossable Sea and it devoured a heavenly in the past!"

"Oh? Now this is getting interesting." Jin Rou's interest was piqued by the 'dark overlord'. He always wanted to fight overlords and now that one existed here, wasn't it a good opportunity to kill it?

"You... why..." Tiresh Abhold no longer have any suspicious marks of Jin Rou. However, the other party was still making her blood boil in anger. She warned him of the dangers there yet he appeared just more interested about it. The Uncrossable Sea. It was a place of haunted memories for her, and she didn't want another person be a victim of that place.

"I don't know why you worry about me now despite treating me like trash a while ago, but it's unnecessary." Jin Rou said, "I am fully sane and fine. I'm just confident in crossing their sea aside from it's a necessity to reach the Heaven's Continent."

Tiresh Abhold opened her mouth but no words came out. She just gritted her teeth and left with the door hardly slammed.
