Aaran didn't care about questioning the people. He just wanted to gather everyone in one place. If it was the work of a cultist, Aaran would find them.
Only if they were still in town.
"What do you think about this situation?" Aaran asked Valgo. "Anything you might want to share?"
"Your Highness… I think this might be the work of a cultist."
As soon as Valgo said that, the other knights rolled their eyes
"What makes you say that?" Aaran asked, but another knight interrupted him.
"Don't listen to him, Your Highness. We called a priest, and he didn't find any trace of darkness in the city—"
"Except for the corpse," Valgo interrupted. "As you saw, something was clearly wrong with it."
Aaran nodded. He was sure a cultist was behind the attack. But the priest didn't find any darkness? That was strange. Even without manifesting his core, Aaran could feel the darkness surrounding the castle.
Something is off about this priest.
"Where is the priest?" he asked.
