Hellbents
Chapter 201: Angry Boomer
Once the majority of votes are confirmed and statements begin to come out, no one can escape the clutches of conformity, unless they are willing to be targeted because of such uncooperative behavior. That way, everyone's role was immediately revealed. Everything except the arrogant fool.
"ah! Why should I tell you, huh?! Are you going to write my name as a traitor?! I said, the traitor isn't me."
Perhaps the old geezer had yet to realize the seriousness of their situation, or he simply did not want to be ruled by someone easier than him. Ava was not surprised actually, a lot he met elderly who demanded respect from anyone without giving respect to anyone. But unfortunately, no one had the patience to serve the parents tantrum, because the first victim had been pronounced dead this morning and his room was still not dry of blood. The energy around the round table was beginning to feel heavy, many looking at the grandfather with rays of surprise, disgust, and of course, suspicion.
The old man will hinder Ava's mission if things continue this way.
At a time like this has a cynical demon whose hobby of pitting against people instead shines bright and useful.
"Why are you so scared to tell me your role, hm~? Ah, we also don't even know your real name, do we~?"
"Why should I tell you?!"
"Eh, what's so hard~? Or is it because ... You're the culprit we're looking for?!" With a false reaction, Asmo gasped at his own statement.
"I told you it wasn't me!" The gnarled face of the grandfather started to blush the higher he shouted in every sentence. His white bushy eyebrows bent sharply, almost touching each other so deeply that the old man's forehead shriveled. "Why don't you just ask the two young friends who died this morning?! Hah, especially he's a hero."
Not only did the grandfather make the tension in the room uncomfortable, the groundless accusation instantly made Dion (the most cooperative person who seemed earnest to unravel the mystery of his friend's death) distrustful. " ... Me?" lirih Dion's.
"Yes! You guys are involved in a love triangle?! That's why you killed your rivals to get your girlfriends!"
... Is he serious? Because, Ava did not capture any clues related to the romantic relationship between the three. Or, the old geezer just threw in a random excuse to divert suspicion towards him.
"Or even you! You're the one who always suspects everyone! I hear you're the devil! The devil! Only fools believe in the devil!"
Ava agreed, but it seemed like the grandfather's barrage didn't stop there.
"It could be him!" Now the old man pointed to Ellijah who was still half conscious. "He glared at me as if he wanted to strangle me!"
Or you're just a coward.
"And you! Don't forget you're the most suspicious! You were the last to see the king in the records yesterday!"
Perhaps due to old age, his hearing no longer worked. That explains why he always yells, because he has trouble hearing his own voice. Also, neither could hear clearly when Ava explained the logical reason why the real traitor was not her at the previous meeting.
Or he just doesn't want to accept any scenario that leaves others free from suspicion in his narrow mind.
"Then you two! Why do you sleep in one room when we are each given a room! You guys are planning something suspicious, huh?!" The couple of children next to him even sprinkled. So, a scared 7-year-old boy in a strange area with a bunch of strangers shouldn't room with his own mother?
Grandpa's conspiracy theories are getting wild.
At this point, no one would believe anything he said.
Because he made all round table participants as enemies.
