Chapter 2296


    Once the three left, Arthur gritted out coldly, “Damn the Demon Lord! August, arrange our men to look


    around for the Demon Lords. Once we find something, report to me right away so we can join forces


    with the Dragon Corps to take the Demon Lord down!”


    After what Leon said, Arthur was misled into believing that the Demon Lord was responsible for


    Yonas’s death.


    Though the Demon Lord was powerful and the Thompsons may not be able to face him alone, the


    Thompsons were still the head of all families in the southern region with countless connections.


    With the Thompsons’ help to track the Demon Lord down, the Dragon Corps would have an easier time


    finding the Demon Lord; with the Thompsons and the Dragon Corps on the same side, they might be


    able to kill the Demon Lord and avenge Yonas.


    “Dad, calm down for a second! There are still a lot of things that seem weird. The Demon Lord might


    not be the killer! We can’t act recklessly,” August said thoughtfully.


    “Weird? What’s weird?” Arthur asked.


    “First of all, Fiona, Norm, and Sully all used Leon to be the murderer! The three of them were with


    Yonas the entire time, so they can’t possibly be confused about who the killer was! Besides, the Demon


    Lord is famously ruthless even


    amongst the individuals on the criminal list! If he was the one who killed Yonas, why didn’t he kill Fiona


    and the other two?” August analyzed.


    “Well,” Arthur was instantly rendered speechless.


    August was right. Considering how vicious the Demon Lord was, he would not leave any witness alive


    if he was responsible for Yonas’s death and that alone seemed suspicious.


    “Besides, Mister Wolf didn’t confirm that the Demon Lord is responsible because he doesn’t have any


    proof of it yet.


    Before we know for sure that the Demon Lord did this, it’s best we don’t provoke him or we may risk the


    lives of everyone in this family,” August added.


    Though everyone wanted to rid themunity of evil criminals like the Demon Lord, the Thompsons


    hardly had enough power to take down one of the top three criminals on the list.


    If it was confirmed that the Demon Lord killed Yonas, the Thompsons were willing to risk everything to


    retaliate, but at this moment, there was no telling if the Demon Lord was truly involved.


    If the Thompsons took the initiative to hunt the Demon Lord down, the Demon Lord would do


    everything in his power to hurt the Thompsons and the Thompsons would find themselves in an


    extremely dangerous position.


    “Yeah, you are right! But, if the Demon Lord isn’t responsible, who’s the culprit?” Arthur scowled.


    “I don’t know. Based on what we know so far, Leon is still the biggest suspect because of what Fiona


    and the others said. The Demon Lord is the second suspect at best,” August said.


    Fiona was Yonas’s girlfriend and an ordinary woman, who had no motive or power to murder Yonas.


    On top of that, even Norm and Sully used Leon of the murder, so August did not suspect anything


    of what Fiona said.


    Though the Dragon Guards determined that Yonas died of a second blow to his injury, they were not


    able to provide any firm evidence and words alone could not make Leon any less of a suspect.

    Because of that, August still believed that Leon was the one who killed Yonas.
