Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

"What's wrong? You can talk to me about everything." Bella smiled seductively, looking at the man in front of her. The man was wearing a robe laced in an embroidered golden flower, as if showing his status.

The man—losing focus on his eyes—answered in a monotonous tone. "My father has no enemies."

Bella asked, "In that case, who will benefit the most from your father's death?"

He thought for a moment. "Me."

"So, are you the one killing your own father?"

"No."

Bella frowned. "In that case, is there anything suspicious happening lately? Maybe something or someone around your father?"

He seemed a bit hesitant but still said it. "There was actually someone suspicious meeting my father one day before his death. I had never seen him before, but he claimed to be someone from the government."

"!!!" Bella squinted her eyes as if she finally found the clue. "In that case, what do you know about that person?"

"I don't know anything. Even my father seems to be clueless about it. After the meeting, my father explained that he was a kind official. He had a rather kind expression, so I didn't think much about it."

"Kind, huh?" Bella looked down, contemplating. "Is it even an official? If the enemy is wearing a disguise or using an illusion… What is their aim?"

Bella continued asking several questions as Nathan wanted, making sure to extract as much information as possible.

After that, she continued interrogating other affected victims. The more she investigated this incident, the more it didn't make sense.

Eventually, she chose to sneak into the mansion, where the first screeching sound was heard.

The mansion was obviously emptied by the government to gather all kinds of evidence to investigate.

However, they couldn't bring back the scratches on the walls, ceiling, and floor.

There was a lot of blood splashed in the room where the merchant was killed. However, there didn't seem to be any destruction, which symbolized the fight.

In other words, the other party was either extremely strong or unsuspecting.

Bella's expression became grimmer as she searched the mansion. In fact, she had gone to the government office before this, trying to find the person with a gentle face.

However, she couldn't find anyone, which meant the merchant's story was either not true or not useful. The merchant's son might not even be aware of such a person.

As a result, Bella had to check other crime scenes for clues, only to be left disappointed. Even though there were similar marks, she couldn't determine who the enemy was or what kind of alien caused it.

Of course, she didn't forget to get information from the town. She had promised Nathan to know about the atmosphere of the city, especially with this serial killer.

Everyone looked worried and had set up a curfew, trying to avoid any suspicious person.

Meanwhile, Nathan used these two days to swallow as many cores as possible. Selena could finally focus on getting stronger rather than getting involved in a useless fight.

Serafina had no other choice but to grow stronger or these two would definitely leave her behind. When that happened, Selena could easily push her away for all kinds of reasons.

That was why she had to ask for some resources from the Holy Kingdom.

There was actually another reason Nathan suggested the meeting would be held in three days.

He might like the vacation, but dealing with this problem as quickly as possible would definitely allow him to have a peaceful vacation after that.

So, why three days?

After absorbing cores for the last two days, Nathan rose from the bed, alarming Selena.

"Nathan?" Selena opened her eyes.

"I just want to get some cool drinks." Nathan waved his hand with a smile, assuring her he wasn't doing anything dangerous.

Obviously, someone who had known Nathan the most wouldn't fall for such a thing. She knew that Nathan was planning to do something since they came to this place with a task.

But Nathan must have a reason for not involving her.

It wasn't her strength that was unnecessary. There must be something he planned to do where, even if she was there, she wouldn't be able to provide any assistance.

Believing in him, Selena nodded. "Alright. Take care. Get back soon."

"Yep!" Nathan smiled.

His destination wasn't the balcony or somewhere near the mansion. Instead, it was a small stall on the corner of the street that was still open despite the current situation.

"Oh my. Are you going to accompany this elder sister, young man?" Bella smiled coquettishly.

"Of course. Do you want to walk around first, milady?"

"I'd love to."

Both of them just bought some snacks while walking around the town.

As soon as they were far enough from the stall, Nathan asked, "Is it…"

"No. I've checked, but that stall owner is just a normal person. Because of the lack of customers, he has to remain open to avoid going under and being unable to feed his children."

Nathan nodded, feeling relieved. "Alright. I need the information. Have you gathered everything?"

"Of course. I don't know how reliable it is, but some of the information makes me wonder about something else. And looking at the evidence, I'm afraid the enemy is not that simple. At least a juvenile class mutant or even a mature class alien might be involved in this.

"More importantly, the culprit is not just an alien. There seems to be a human involved."

"A human, huh?" Nathan frowned. This combination couldn't help but remind him of Dikkleus.

All of a sudden, they heard a loud screeching voice as well as a loud explosion.

Boom!

The glass shattered, which produced a loud enough sound for the people in this city to hear.

"!!!" Both Nathan and Bella widened their eyes, not because they were startled by the sudden attack but because of the location of that attack. It was the mansion where Nathan resided. The one who could produce such an explosion was none other than Selena.

"Not good. I have to go back. The mansion is attacked!"
