Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 267: Three Questions



"To think you are able to catch the spy so easily. This elder sister has underestimated you." Bella suddenly walked from behind Nathan as she circled her arm around his neck, looking at him both with a teasing gaze.

Before Nathan could respond, Axel raised his voice. "You are—!"

Evelyn looked annoyed and said, "Shut him up. He\'s too loud."

"Alright." Bella blew the smoke toward Axel.

Axel\'s body trembled when the smoke reached his face. In that instant, the light on his eyes vanished as he fell down to his knees, as though his soul had left his body.

Nathan took a glance at his state and understood a bit more about Bella\'s power.

"The spy was hard to find, huh?" Neyeid crossed his arms. "Not bad for a newbie."

"Hahahaha. I can see why you recruit him now, Captain!" Revon laughed out loud.

Sonia didn\'t say anything, but she still nodded her head.

"Still, there\'s a powerful curse on him. If you\'re going to interrogate him, it won\'t last long." Christopher warned them.

"Curse, huh?" Evelyn turned to Christopher. "Can you release it?"

"No. A curse this powerful can only be slowed down. An archbishop from the Holy Kingdom might be able to slow it down much longer than me, but I doubt he can remove the curse. Let\'s see… Unless the Pope takes action personally, I don\'t think it\'s possible. Are you going to hand him to the pope?" Christopher asked.

"If I do that, I won\'t be able to learn about the information." Evelyn shook her head.

"But the Pope can share that information, maybe through the Saintess who is currently staying in the Frexia Academy."

"There\'s no guarantee it will be everything or the truth." Evelyn shook her head. "Instead, do you know who can inflict a curse this powerful?"

"If I have to say, it will be the principal of the Frexia Academy. He is a master of Ena manipulation as well as a curse grandmaster."

"I don\'t think he\'s the culprit. Anyone else?" Evelyn shook her head.

"I can\'t think of anyone right now." Christopher shook his head.

"The one planting this curse might be related to the organization. Even if he is not the leader, he should be a high-ranking personnel." Evelyn thought for a moment. "How long are you able to extend it?"

"If you\'re going to interrogate him, I\'m afraid that the curse will be activated. I can extend it for ten seconds."

"That should be enough for three short questions." Evelyn nodded. "I already know the three questions I\'m planning to ask. We can proceed with the interrogation."

"But after that, he will die. Are you sure about this?" Christopher asked for her confirmation. He wondered if it would be troublesome for Nathan, considering he was the one who would be responsible for this matter.

"Don\'t worry about me." Nathan waved his hand, nonchalant toward Axel\'s life.

"In that case…" Christopher nodded and summoned an angel. He floated behind him. "The powerful curse. We\'ll be slowing it down."

The angel nodded his head. Both of them spread their arms as though they used the same ability.

Golden light started to shine inside the room as a huge golden circle appeared on the ground.

"I\'m ready!" Christopher nodded.

"Bella." Evelyn glanced at her best friend.

Bella nodded and walked toward Axel. She blew the smoke into his face. Axel was inhaling the smoke, which seemed to be fully entranced by Bella\'s power.

"Go!" Bella nodded.

As Christopher expected, black veins began to spread. If not for his current state, he would have been screaming in pain, as if every single cell in his body broke down.

"Divine Magnus!" Christopher activated his ability as the light seemed to slow the spread of the curse down.

Evelyn asked the first question. "Who is the leader of the organization or his relationship with you?"

Axel answered with a hoarse voice. "I don\'t know. He places his curse on me."

"Is the number of people related to the organization more than fifty people?"

Axel let out a wail as his body started to shake. "N-No."

"What is the goal of the organization?"

Axel\'s body was convulsing violently as Revon and Neyeid held him down. Axel\'s mouth was moving as if he were trying to answer, but there was no voice coming from his mouth as though something was preventing him from uttering the reason.

"Kh!" Christopher increased his power. "Not good. The curse energy burst from within his body."

Axel\'s eyes rolled back as foam came out of his mouth. He could only utter a single word, "Kill," before dying.

"!!!" Evelyn\'s body trembled. "Kill? Who are you going to kill? Me?"

Evelyn clenched her hands into fists. "Is it really me?"

Nathan looked down, falling into deep thought. "I don\'t think you\'re the target. We are lacking too much information. Even if you are the target, for what reason? Have you provoked a curse grandmaster?"

Evelyn snapped. That was right. He didn\'t know any curse grandmasters, so why would he even target her?

"To think we can only get this much information from him. Maybe it\'s better to bring him to the pope?" Bella frowned.

"No. We get a lot of information." Nathan shook his head. "Much more than I originally thought."

"What do you mean?"

"First of all, we know their leader is a curse grandmaster. But since his name is not well known, finding him will be hard. Still, it\'s not impossible.

"Second, the size of the organization. It\'s clever wording from Captain. It shows us the size of this organization. This organization has fewer than fifty people, so it must be an elite organization, similar to us. However, each of them is elite, so we have to be careful.

"Getting their names will be hard, but we can still do it through other spies in other academies. If they are included, I don\'t think their size is bigger than we originally thought.

"Last but not least, the intention behind this organization. Kill… Who do they want to kill? We don\'t know about it yet, but if we find out about the leader\'s identity, it will show us a little about who he is trying to kill by creating this kind of organization."
