A Different World That Started as a Slave

The fire was raging like a huge torch, illuminating the dark night.

The billowing black smoke rose into the sky, as if foreshadowing the instructor's anger at this moment.

"Has the fire been isolated?"

The instructor asked his subordinates with an ugly face.

He rushed over as soon as he received the warning from the magic device, but he was still a step behind.

When he arrived, the fire was out of control.

He could only stand outside and watch the house belonging to Marvin gradually burn, with flames rising into the sky.

If he had stayed at home at the time, he might have discovered the fire earlier.

Unfortunately, the warehouse was more important. He was often in the small house in the south, monitoring the situation in the training camp with a magic device.

"The isolation belt to prevent the spread of the fire has been built, and people have been arranged to fetch water to put out the fire. The fire should be under control soon."

The subordinate quickly reported to the instructor the progress of the current firefighting work, with a hurried tone and some uneasiness.

"Have you notified Marvin?"

The instructor's face did not change much, and he continued to ask the subordinate.

Compared with the buildings burned by the fire, people are more important.

Therefore, although the worst possibility has been anticipated, the instructor still asked this question with some hope.

"That... that, I haven't received any news from Lord Marvin yet."

The subordinate responded to the instructor nervously.

Hearing this reply, the instructor closed his eyes, exhaled deeply, and then opened his eyes, and the expression on his face changed from ugly to calm.

"Have you found who set the fire?"

The instructor asked calmly.

"At present... the patrol has not found the specific situation of the prisoner."

The subordinate replied more anxiously, his face was extremely ugly, as if the instructor's face was transferred to his face.

He did not say 'it might be an accident', because whether it was an accident or not, it was their fault for not clearing the fire in the first time.

"Really... nothing was found... then go to put out the fire, I want to see the situation inside the house as soon as possible."

The instructor still spoke calmly, as if he had no anger.

The accident has already happened, and the most important thing now is to solve it quickly, rather than getting angry and delaying the emergency firefighting time.

As for the punishment issue later, after the matter is resolved, the corresponding punishment will be made according to their respective responsibilities.

He waved his hand, signaling the subordinate beside him to act quickly.

"Yes."

Seeing that the instructor had no intention of punishing him, the subordinate breathed a sigh of relief and responded firmly in a military posture.

Then he quickly turned around and left the fire scene and joined the fire-fighting team.

The instructor did not look at the subordinate's leaving figure, his eyes were still fixed on the fire in front of him.

Fire and water are merciless. Even with his knight's body, he could not survive the fire. He knew that Marvin was very likely to die in it.

But was it an accident?

The instructor knew that Marvin always liked to experiment with various potions in the house.

Was there an accident during the refining process, or was the safety work not handled properly?

With Marvin's experience, such a mistake should not happen.

Even if there was an accident, did he not prepare countermeasures and let himself die in the fire?

In fact, Reens had tried to poison him with Marvin's potion in the copy, but it did not succeed.

Because Marvin was too sensitive to potions, he knew there was a problem as soon as he smelled the potion before it was delivered to his mouth.

Even if he accidentally drank a little, Marvin would immediately make the corresponding "antidote".

In the end, there was no way, Reens could only firmly work on the choice of "forced killing".

...

"Riens, Riens... wake up, something big has happened."

Ben woke up Riens who was sleeping and said anxiously.

"What's wrong? Um... something big? What big has happened!"

Riens was confused at first, then he seemed to be completely awakened and asked seriously.

Riens certainly knew what happened, but he couldn't show it in front of Ben, right?

So necessary acting is indispensable.

Moreover, he was really sleeping before, and Riens did not pretend to be so.

Riens knew that he had done what he should do, and the rest could only wait for the situation to continue to develop.

If the fate is good, there will be no problem.

But if the fate is bad, the instructor will really notice something.

, then it's time to fight to the death.

Therefore, as soon as Reens returned to the dormitory, he went directly into the dungeon to concentrate on practicing swordsmanship.

This can not only prevent himself from always worrying about this and that, but his expression will be a little abnormal, thus forming a loophole in the plan.

It can also allow him to continue to strengthen his strength, and when the time comes for real resistance, he can kill a few more people.

"Listen, is it very noisy outside... I just went out to take a look, and there was a fire in the northwest direction, as if something was on fire."

Ben said in a heavy tone.

At this time, it was indeed a bit noisy outside, with the sound of people running and various shouts.

"On fire?"

Reens expressed his doubts, then quickly walked to the door of the dormitory and carefully opened the door, as if he was worried about disturbing the commotion outside.

Reens walked outside and looked in the direction Ben had previously indicated.

The fire over there was like a huge light bulb, illuminating the darkness of the training camp.

This scene was not the first time that Reans had seen it. He had burned Marvin's house several times in the dungeon.

Unfortunately, because the dungeon time was not enough.

So Reans could not see what action the instructor took.

Reans looked at the scene in the distance with deep eyes, with a fake shock on his face.

Ben also walked out of the house and stood beside Reans, looking at the direction of the fire together.

In fact, Reans and Ben were not the only ones who went out to check what happened.

People in other dormitories could not help but walk out of the house and look in the direction of the accident.

Some of them were shocked and curious, some looked uneasy, and some just watched the development of the situation outside quietly.

This scene may have happened before, just over 4 months ago.

"You said... Could it be done by one of us?"

Ben asked Reans softly.

His voice was very soft, as if he didn't want anyone to hear it.

Fortunately, the two stood very close, so Reans could hear Ben's voice in a somewhat noisy environment.

"I don't know... maybe it was an accident, or maybe it was done by someone who was unwilling to be lonely."

Riens responded in a deep voice.

If it was just a fire, the instructor would most likely suspect that it was done by one or some of the trainers.

After all, they have a criminal record, and under strong pressure, people are always irrational.

So it is normal for the instructor to suspect them, at least they will be interrogated in various ways.

But, what if Marvin with a beheaded head is added?

Then the development of the matter will have new changes.

"Instructor, what do you think of when you see that scene?"

Riens muttered in his heart.

...

Not too long after a while, the fire was finally extinguished, and the night enveloped the world again.

Because the rescue was quick enough, Marvin's house still retained its general structure, but the inside had been burned into a black mass.

The instructor stepped on the extinguished charcoal and walked into it.

Without hesitation, he walked quickly to Marvin's bedside, and then saw the almost completely burnt body.

A body with a severed head and no longer recognizable.

The instructor watched this scene, without saying anything, and turned away from the "crime scene".

"Destroy the body and cover up all traces."

He came to this conclusion in his mind.
