Chapter 352: Federico's Death
"Your Grace, we received news that the people from the empire are on their way here," Denys said. They were already preparing to leave Aster as they needed to go back to Wugari before they once again departed for the Howling Mountains.
"It was Martin Lux and his people," Denys added. "I also heard something that might cause concern."
"What is it?"
"It seems that Federico Lux is missing."
"Is it possible that they " Rosalind who was standing next to the Duke did not complete her words. Why would Martin come here when Federico was missing? She frowned.
Was it finally happening?
Federico was going to die.
It happened in the past life and it would happen in this life too.
However, it was simply too early. Although she knew that she could no longer trust her past knowledge because of the things that she changed, she still felt that this was not the right time. After all, things had changed after her arrival.
Not long after, Martin barged inside the room without even asking for permission.
Seeing Martin's expression, Rosalind frowned inwardly. The man looked scared. He was really not acting.
Rosalind knew that Martin was... a bit dumb. He does not exactly know how to act and would often wear his emotions on his face.
This man had always been like this, even in her past life.
"Where is he?" Martin asked before he gestured to the soldier to lock the door behind him.
"What manners," Lucas snorted. He was enjoying their last tea in Aster before leaving and out of nowhere, this man barged in here with soldiers. "Is this"
"My father was last seen walking towards this place last night. He did not return home nor was he in his office. Where is he?"
"I have not seen Federico Lux," Lucas calmly answered. He took a sip of his tea, calmly enjoying its bitterness before he lifted his gaze and looked at Martin. "I have no reason to lie."
As usual, the Duke's voice was calm and collected. After all, it was still early in the morning and Martin Lux should consider himself lucky that the Duke was in a very good mood today.
This was not because of what Rosalind cooked the other day or because of the reward that he received.
It was because the two of them stayed in the same room.
Although Rosalind chose to lay down on the couch rather than in the same bed with him.
"I do not believe you."
"I do not think that is my problem, Your Blessedness."
"Search the place. Find anything any signs that father was here."
"Are you really willing to go that far, Your Blessedness?" Lucas got up, and out of nowhere, Martin took a sword and pointed it at him.
"Take your seat, Your Grace. I do not want to hurt you."
Lucas's lips twitched. "We are leaving," he said.
"You are not leaving this place."
"Do you want to watch me leave?"
"You"
Martin pursed his lips. This meant that he had another person who witnessed his father said that he would go and talk to the Duke.
"Is there anything else?" he asked.
"When I was walking out of the palace I thought I thought I saw someone familiar."
"What is it?"
"It was someone who was wearing a cloak that covered their whole face. However, I remember seeing that subordinate next to the Duke of Wugari when we came."
"The one wearing the cloak you mean that one standing behind the Duke?" He also remembered someone wearing a cloak but he ignored it as the Duke was known for his subordinates that wear cloaks. However, now that he thought about it Lucas Rothley could have easily told someone to kidnap Federico Lux.
Quickly, he turned on his heels, but before he could enter his carriage, one of his knights informed him that they had already finished searching the Duke's room and they found nothing suspicious.
Of course! Martin thought inwardly. They would never find something if the crime was not committed in that place.
"Find someone to stop the Duke from leaving Aster," he said. "It is important that I talk to him before he leaves!" Once that man stepped out of Aster, it would be very hard for them to ask him questions!
"Father, where are you going?" Dorothy asked.
"I need to talk to the Duke."
"I want to come."
"Dorothy-" This was not the right time for this! While Martin was irritated, he could not directly tell his own daughter off because there were other people in front of them.
His arrival already gathered the attention of some people that were lining up hoping to receive some sort of treatment from the Saintess and him.
"If that... If that person... I meant the one wearing the cloak, is there then I should be able to point that person out. I can remember everything about that person simply because I almost bumped into him or her."
Seeing that Martin seemed unconvinced, she added.
"I also know the structure of that person's body because I was watching her when... when we went to see the Duke."
Hearing this, Martin narrowed his eyes. They had no time to stay here.
"Alright. We are taking the horses."
"I understand."
The two of them rode their horses and immediately went to the gates that would lead the Duke to the North.
"Father, I heard that the Duke could teleport in and out of Aster, is that true?"
"Yes."
"Are you not concerned that he would choose that method to leave Aster?"
"He would not do that."
"Why?"
"Because he is simply too egotistical to refuse the people who want to see him before he leaves." That was right. Hundreds of people were currently waiting for the Duke to arrive at the gates so they could see him.
Since they were not able to see the Duke when he received his reward, many were hoping to see him now!
