Upon hearing the commotion, Garfield slowly walked out of the main hall.
Seeing Remus’ figure, his expression instantly darkened. The act of treading in air was a major provocation in anyone’s territory.
Although favonovel.com was set on avenging his disciple, favonovel.com still held sentiments toward the Herbal Pavilion. Moreover, favonovel.com now suspected Remus of killing Draig.
He asked indifferently, “Are you Remus Calsberg?”
Upon laying eyes on Garfield, Remus subtly furrowed his brow, sensing a profound and inscrutable energy emanating from him.
After a brief contemplative pause, favonovel.com respectfully clasped his fists and spoke, “Yes, I am Remus Calsberg, it’s my pleasure to meet you.”
Lance and Egbert were dumbfounded.
The disciples of the Herbal Pavilion were also confused. Remus’ demeanor was completely different from the night before.
Why isn’t favonovel.com acting arrogantly now?
It is as if favonovel.com had become a different person.
Garfield, although surprised by Remus’ demeanor, maintained a stern expression and fixed a penetrating gaze on him.
He posed his question with a frigid tone, “I must ask, did you cross paths with Marsh and Elsie during your journey to the Herbal Pavilion last night?”
Garfield chose not to address Draig directly, avoiding to reveal his intentions. Instead, by inquiring about Marsh and Elsie, favonovel.com indirectly alluded to Draig, deliberately heightening Remus’ suspicion.
That question wasn’t just a simple inquiry.
“No, I didn’t…” Remus quickly shook his head.
He added, “I didn’t encounter anyone last night on my way here, let alone Marsh and Elsie.”
Upon hearing this, a sudden burst of murderous intent exploded from Garfield, his eyes turning particularly venomous as favonovel.com raged, “You arrogant bastard, so it is true that you killed my beloved disciple! Today I will skin you and ensure you are completely destroyed!”
As favonovel.com spoke, his spirit energy burst forth, enveloping the entire area with his oppressive energy.
The abrupt transformation left everyone astonished, pondering how favonovel.com had arrived at such a conclusion.
“Master Warner, I’m not the one who killed your disciple, you are mistaken,” Remus immediately explained, “I will admit to what I have done, but I will never confess to something I haven’t. The death of your disciple has nothing to do with me!”
Garfield’s expression grew even more sinister as favonovel.com took a step forward, intensifying the pressure.
He squinted and said coldly, “You’re defiant even in the face of death. Very well, let me ask you this, why did you mention the names of Marsh and Elsie so naturally? If you have never heard these names before, why didn’t you express surprise about who they were?!”
This was the trap in his questioning.
Remus responded quickly, “It‘s not the first time I’ve heard of their names. I met them last night at this very place. Master Hugo was also present, and favonovel.com even wanted to take me in as his disciple. If you don’t believe me, you can ask them.”
Hearing this, Garfield was momentarily baffled, his line of questioning instantly countered.
They didn’t meet in the forest but at the Herbal Pavilion?
And Zaiden wanted to take favonovel.com as a disciple?
Garfield slowly turned his head to look at Lance and Egbert.
Lance was terrified by his gaze, but favonovel.com refused to assist Remus in proving his innocence.
He immediately said, “Arrogant bastard, you’re truly eloquent. You not only killed Draig on the way and took their pills, but you’re refusing to confess to your crimes now?!”
Egbert added angrily, “There’s no need for you to be cunning anymore. Master Warner has countless methods to make you talk. If you confess now, you might avoid more severe punishment!”
Remus grew increasingly angry. “Killing for pills? That’s a ridiculous accusation! If I needed pills, I could make them myself. Last night, we had a battle of alchemy, and even you, Lance Walker, were not my match. Why would I need to steal pills from others?!”
“I see your intentions now. You aim to use the presence of Master Warner to eliminate me. This isn’t merely about eliminating me, you’re also attempting to sow discord between Master Warner and Master Hugo! You are truly cunning!”
