Don's expression was as dark as thunder as he turned to face the villagers. “Who did that? Come forward right now. If you admit to your mistake, I'll make sure you die in one piece. If I find out who you are, I shall chop you into pieces and feed your body to the dogs!” he declared viciously.

The villagers stared at each other, but no one stepped out to admit to it.

Seeing that, Cesar spoke. “There's no need to question them, for it wasn't one of you who commit the heinous act.”

Don immediately pleaded, “Sir, please let us know the culprit who disrespected our ancestors' graves. I'll do my best to avenge our ancestors!”

Cesar glanced in the direction of their ancestral graves. “You'll know when you see it for yourselves.”

Comprehension dawned on Don. “Oh, how did that slip my mind? Sir, thanks for that.”

He turned and gave his order. “Vicks, Fritz, attend to the priest. Everyone else, let's go to the graveyard. We shall avenge our ancestors.”

“Let's go!” the villagers chorused.

They followed the village chief to their ancestral graves.

Their ancestral graves were located on the east side of the village in the woods.

Vicks and Fritz stayed behind to carry out Don's order. They said, “Sir, please come here.”

































































The village chief told them to take care of Cesar, but he was in fact keeping an eye on Cesar so Cesar wouldn't get to leave.

Cesar wasn't about to stay.

He feigned calmness, but was actually scheming inside.

Nodding, he said, “All right. Please lead the way there.”

Vicks and Fritz led him to the village chief's house.

When they turned around, Cesar snapped his fingers deftly to trigger the trine worms in their bodies.

When the trine worms came alive, Vicks and Fritz dropped to the ground, unconscious.

Actually, the mysterious incidents that befallen the village were all the trine worms' doing.

Cesar sneered, “Ha! Don't even think of keeping me here.”

He turned and left.

Of course, he didn't really leave. Instead, he hid in a corner and observed the progress.

In the woods at the east of the village, Erwen, Yazmin, and Andres were busy grinding herbs when they heard footsteps approaching them.

Erwen looked up casually and promptly froze.

A crowd yelling menacing threats was approaching them swiftly.

The ground shook as they marched all the way here.

Yazmin gasped. “I think they are the villagers of Durbaine. Why are they here?”
