The main entrance of Saint Brilliant High School.
The bald middle-aged man was hung there by his neck. The suffocation caused his face to look abnormally distorted. The first person who saw the corpse was even more shocked and let out a shriek.
Of course, there was more than one scream.
Any ordinary person who saw this corpse would let out a cry of surprise.
Death.
Or anything that was related to death, people would be afraid.
Exceptions?
Of course there were exceptions.
Kieran arrived a minute after the scream went off and when he saw the dean's body, his face turned ugly.
The dean was an indispensable part of the plan that he came up with to "free his identity".
Now that the dean was dead, Kieran's plan would fail before it could even be carried out.
It was not a good feeling at all.
However, Kieran didn't really care about it.
Or to be more precise, it wasn't because of this matter that he had an unpleasant expression on his face.
He was tricked!
The moment he saw the dean, Kieran reacted to the situation.
The attack from the glass shards last night might seem to be targeting everyone in the room but the real target should be the dean.
On top of that, after the culprit noticed Kieran's unusual behavior, he purposely lured Kieran to the incinerator.
The culprit used Ling's soul to confuse Kieran's judgment.
Although he wasn't sure whether the culprit had anything to do with what happened after that, Kieran knew the culprit must be delighted after killing the dean.
Delighted to the point of showing off.
It wasn't common to hang a corpse after death. Given the civilization level of this dungeon world, it had long surpassed the uncivilized era.
Huu!
Kieran took a deep breath and quickly calmed himself down.
He knew rage wouldn't be of any use at the moment.
"Hanging a corpse here just to show off?"
After calming down, Kieran doubted the culprit's actions the moment he calmed down.
Judging from the way the culprit acted before, he shouldn't be such a reckless person.
Then …
"Just to intimidate someone?"
Or to send a message to someone? "
Kieran wondered in his heart.
Then, he quietly retreated out of the crowd and carefully sized up the people around him.
Even though the possibility of the person the mastermind wanted to deal with being in the crowd was extremely low, it did not stop Kieran from doing his best to investigate.
The devil is in the details.
Kieran agreed with this statement.
Especially when Kieran really found some clues —
"The dean is dead!"
Hiss!
"Just like what the Occult Society predicted!"
"The president of the Occult Society mentioned a week ago that he saw the aura of death on the dean!"
"How terrifying!"
…
"Occult Society?"
The familiar form of address made Kieran narrow his eyes.
He had heard a similar conversation at the scene of the student jumping off the building yesterday.
However, it was different from yesterday.
Kieran took it very seriously.
He decided to take a look at the Mystery Society.
…
The dean's death and the way he died caused a huge uproar in Saint Brilliant High School.
On that day, Saint Brilliant High School decided to go on a temporary holiday.
All the teachers and students were in favor of the suggestion.
The continuous deaths had already made the teachers extremely nervous.
As for the students?
They were nervous and afraid.
But facing the unexpected day off, they were more delighted.
Youth.
It always made people sigh, didn't it?
Unfortunately, Kieran had passed that stage a long time ago. His premature maturity made him unable to understand the charm of the term.
Though, Kieran was delighted as well.
Even though he didn't understand youth, he knew it was very convenient for him to investigate the Occult Society.
With his identity as a teacher, Kieran easily got the Occult Society's activity room from the dean's office. He was walking around the campus quickly.
Unlike the other school groups, the Occult Society's activity room was not in the main academic building but in the old storeroom of the school's gymnasium.
Kieran didn't choose to enter the gymnasium from the main entrance. He went around one of the few surveillance cameras in the school and snuck into the old storeroom through the window.
However, to Kieran's surprise, there was someone inside the storeroom.
It was someone he knew.
Kana.
Kana who had changed into her school uniform and her weird makeup didn't make her look more like a student. Instead, she looked even more depraved.
When Kana easily knocked down three to four boys that charged at her and walked step by step towards the only girl standing in the storeroom, her presence turned into a bad student bullying a good student in a children's drama.
Kieran raised a brow and instinctively wanted to stop her.
He didn't want to be the partner of justice.
It was just that the information of the Occult Society that he had read in the dean's office coincidentally had the information of the president.
Tanya, a student from Grade 12, Class 3.
Tanya's picture was similar to a real person. She had black hair, a pair of blue and red eyes and a pretty face. However, she had a petite body that wasn't in the picture.
Just by looking at her body, it was hard to tell if she was a high school student.
With her petite body, even a middle school student wouldn't qualify, she would be more like an elementary school student.
If it wasn't for the pair of eyes, Tanya's petite body would cause misunderstandings but with the pair of eyes, it gave her an indescribable feeling.
Mysterious?
Bewitching?
A little of both but it didn't seem right at all.
For Kieran who had run into too many weird things in a short day, it was a mixed news.
The good news was that he might get new leads.
The bad news was that he would have to face the unknown again.
However, just as Kieran was about to appear in a flash, the scene before his eyes stopped him.
"Listen to my command, follow my will …"
"Return from the land of the dead!"
A soft chant sounded like a spell. A giant figure appeared in the old storeroom in a flash of light.
Bulging muscles, a red face and sharp fangs.
Horns like a goat protruded from his forehead.
His broad bat wings had layers of flames on them.
The devil!
A real devil had appeared in front of Kieran just like that.
If …
It had the presence of a devil, it would be great.
Unfortunately, the devil before Kieran's eyes didn't have any presence.
Although it looked real, he had experienced the scene in the teacher's office before. How could he not know what was going on?
At the same time, Kana wasn't fooled either.
"Trying to mystify people!"
The hot-tempered girl landed a punch on Tanya's head as she shouted.
In an instant, Tanya, who seemed rather mysterious a moment ago, hugged her head and squatted down. She gazed at Kana with teary eyes and yelled loudly. "Kana, my army of a hundred thousand will be here soon. How dare you …"
Bang!
Before she could finish, Tanya was struck again.
The pain shut her up but she was still looking at Kana with a vicious glare. Her mouth was muttering softly about how bold you are, my 100,000-strong army will trample your house to the ground.
Outside the old storeroom, Kieran was stunned at the scene.
Then …
He covered his face.
Inexplicably, she felt so ashamed.
He couldn't even bear to look at it.
