The residents requested, “Tell us what happened and stop crying, Peter!”

Peter wiped his tears away and answered, “I came here this morning to grab the food we're supposed to send to the Village of Livestock. Every time I come here, Mona will greet me. However, she wasn't there when I came earlier. I thought she was simply still asleep, so I didn't think too much about it. However, when I passed by her bedroom, I saw the door was open, and she was sleeping on the bed. I went inside the room to wake her up, but when I did, I realized that she was already... Her face was blue, and her lips were purple. There were already no signs of life in her. She looked as though she had suffocated. I don't have any wife or children, so I've always treated Mona as my own daughter. If I find out who killed her, I'll drink their blood and eat their flesh as revenge for her!”

The clan members were all riled up as they discussed how to locate the killer.

At that moment, an old wise man approached Mona before checking her eyes and arms.

Moments later, he spoke up emotionally as his arms trembled. “Mona was clearly killed by a worm! Dear god! Who could possibly be cruel enough to do that to her?”

When the clan members learned she died from a worm, they became even more agitated.

There had always been an unwritten rule in the Muraco Clan that no clan members could ever harm another clan member with the use of worms. Even the Black Muraco Clan wasn't allowed to do that to the White Muraco Clan.


This rule that not even their oldest ancestors had dared to go against had been broken, so how could everyone not be angry?

However, someone still asked, “How can you be so sure that Mona was killed by a worm? We should double-check it.”

The old man shifted his gaze to another old man. “Please help me examine Mona's body, Bimble.”

Bimble stepped forward and checked Mona's body.

Moments later, he concluded, “Mr. Jeremiah is right! Mona did indeed die because of a worm. Not only that, it's the most powerful worm of them all, the Killing Worm!”

The clan members couldn't hold back their anger any further when they heard that name.

“The Killing Worm is the most typical worm that the Black Muraco Clan uses! Is it possible that the Black Muraco Clan was the one who killed Mona?”

“We have endured the Black Muraco Clan's bullying all this while and obeyed every command they gave us. Yet, they still decided to kill Mona? They are beyond cruel!”

“I won't stand for this injustice!”

“We must find them and ask them why they're willing to kill such a young child!”

Under the influence of their emotions, the crowd was eager to rush off to find the Black Muraco Clan.
