The villain's side of the novel

[ as an apology for my previous mistake I made this chapter extra long ]

"Where is he going?" Leo asked in a low voice, looking at Fray, who was rushing in a certain direction. In front of him

"I don't know, but I don't think he will help us even though he's got that role, he doesn't seem to care about solving the curse," Noelle replied, moving at a fast pace trying to catch up with the speed of Luke, Lisa, Aslan, and Leo who were following Fray from behind.

"No, you're wrong. I think Fray will actually do his best to stop this curse," said Lisa

"Why do you think so?" Noelle asked in a curious voice as she looked at Lisa, unable to understand why she was so confident in Fray. After all, the angel had announced that Fray was no longer a suspect, and he certainly wouldn't care to stop the curse now since he's not in danger anymore

"If Fray really isn't the culprit behind the curse, he certainly wouldn't let a catastrophe of unknown impact like this out of control so close to his territory," Lisa replied to Noelle's question.

But despite Lisa's confident expression, not everyone agrees with her, as they realize that Fray is a dangerous and unpredictable person, after all, he hasn't even tried to clean up the four-star Dungeon, which represents an arrogant raving about the lives of his townspeople.

"Sigh, I don't know, I still find all of this so strange just why that Angel took Fray off the suspect list and why he assigned him to this phase," Noelle.

"Is what I'm seeing true...?"

"Yes, it's true. The prime suspect has become the one in charge of the trial."

"That's ridiculous even to think about."

"This angel is insane, how could he give so much power to such a dangerous person?"

After reading the rules of the fourth stage, the guests began to discuss the situation with angry and questioning expressions, and the reason for this anger was nothing but rule number four, which made all the guests read it more than once to make sure that their eyes did not deceive them.

[4/Fray Prada, who has nominated an investigator for the case, will have full control of this phase. The investigator is the only one who has the authority to achieve the verdict of the offender, if the suspects discover any clues related to the case they have delivered them to the investigator as soon as possible or they will be considered accomplices of the criminal.

Please note that the investigator is responsible for the fourth phase, and it is necessary to follow his orders without objection, as long as these orders are within the framework of the investigation.]

"This night is gradually getting weirder," Iman declared in a moaning voice after reading this letter.

"Lisa, do you have any idea about the reason for this rule?" Luke asked

"No, that's weird. I can't think of any logical conclusion to what's going on here," Lisa said with a complicated expression as she looked at Fray, who was looking into the void with a faint smile.

Lisa, in fact, was one of Fray's closest friends, and she was one of the few people in the world who could understand and anticipate Fray's actions very well, but in these few months that they disconnected, Fray became a completely strange individual, and any actions associated with him became very mysterious and incomprehensible. This change gives Lisa an odd feeling as if there is a dangerous secret related to Fray, a secret that even the Ronal family, specialized in revealing the most dangerous secrets in the human continent, cannot even approach it.

"I just hope he doesn't use this power to do anything evil," Elia said with a worried expression and innocent eyes.

"We can't leave the fate of the Lionar Kingdom in the hands of such a risky person. " Iman

"So how do you intend to deal with this phase, investigator ?" Suddenly interrupting the group's conversation, a man suddenly shouted loudly as he looked in Fray's direction

"Well, let's first hear how he will deal with the situation before we decide our next step," Noelle said after hearing the unknown man's scream, then turned in Fray's direction as well.

And so everyone turned around to look in Fray's direction to see what Fray would say now. After all, the angel himself assigned him as responsible for the fourth phase, and as the message mentioned, he has the right to give them orders. And After realizing this all the guests decided to hear what he has to say.

Fray looked at the audience who were looking at him with different expressions, then turned around to look at the hall window and found that the dark barrier that surrounded the hall had moved away a lot and that the barrier now it had actually covered more than half of the palace.

"Rin go.. " Fray whispered in a low voice, then without even bothering to another look in the direction of the hundreds of attendees who were looking at him, he turned around and started moving towards one of the hall's doors.

"...." Everyone present opened their eyes in surprise, as they did not expect that Fray would actually leave them hanging like this without even giving them an answer.

"Sigh, I expected him to do this..." Luke sighed

"What should we do now ?" Loe asked

"Let's follow him," said Lisa in a serious voice

"Why? Do you think he knows something ?" Aslan asked

"I don't know, but now he has absolute control over the trial, at this point without his permission we can't do anything " Lisa

"Yes,you're right. Your Majesty, we will follow him. You form teams and disperse to search for any clues in the area that the barrier covered." Luke said in a serious voice as he looked at Noelle

"I will go with you too," said Noelle

Noelle has decided to follow Luke and the others because she knows this is an ideal opportunity to obtain some achievements and strengthen her position, and for some reason, she felt that if she stayed here she won't achieve this. She also intends to use this opportunity to reinforce her relationship with Luke, the leader of the Shield union, and Lisa, the young lady from the old Ronal family. Both of these characters have a strong influence on the continent, and she will naturally benefit a lot if she puts them on her side. Thus, after leaving the searching task for her sisters, he set out with Luke and the others and followed Fray.

Fray, on the other hand, just ignored Luke and the others who were approaching him quickly and continued his way. Fray, although he had the authority to give orders to all those present, he knew that they would not help him in his investigation, and that's why he decided to abandon them.

After Fray left the hall, he headed to one of the inner gardens that were close to the hall, so close that Fray reached the exact location before even Luke and the others could catch up with him.

There he finds Casper and the two siblings waiting for him in front of a large statue

" Hello, sir," Casper said with a respectful expression as Fray approached him.

"Hello, head of the family," the two siblings said as well, after noticing Fray.

"Did you complete the task?" Fray asked as he looked at Casper.

"Yes, sir. We have questioned all the escorts, although we could not find the culprit. We have gathered a lot of useful information," Casper said with a proud expression.

In fact, the task that Fray left to Casper is to interrogate the escorts who came with the guests. Fray realizes that the escorts actually notice many internal details of the families they serve, and Fray knows that this information will be useful to find the criminal who caused the curse.

"Good job. Then pass it," said Fray

"Okay, sir," said Casper, and then, without any further ado, activated the power that made him one of the most powerful members of the Prada family

*The law of mind*

Suddenly, Casper's eyes became bright white, thus hundreds of information began to move from Casper's mind to Fray's mind rapidly, and in less than ten seconds, Fray got all the information that Casper had obtained from the escort knights.

Consequently, as soon as this process ended, a message suddenly appeared in Fray's sight.

[The Eye of the Unknown has been activated].

[A new clue has been obtained.]
