The Hero Who Became a Monster Girl Will Never Fall to Evil Chapter 24: The Unspeakable Reason

“Sorry...”

After watching her disciple hurry away, Vieya slowly revealed her figure from the corner. She leaned against the wall with one hand, watching as the Tribunal staff—who had been working thodically a mont ago—suddenly rushed off in the sa direction as if they had been triggered by sothing.

One after another, they passed quickly by Vieya, yet none of them noticed anything unusual.

Standing at the corner, Vieya closed her erald eyes and waited quietly.

She had visited Tribunals before—this one, the one in the capital, and others in several cities. She might not claim complete mastery, but she understood them well enough.

As ti passed, the impact of her sudden disappearance spread.

The Tribunal knights on patrol quickened their pace, as if searching for sothing.

They even brought out hounds to trace Vieya’s scent.

But all of it was futile.

Vieya knew very well that in her current concealed state, only the replica of the All-Seeing Eye could detect her.

Unfortunately, today the All-Seeing Eye was off duty. No matter how wide human eyes were opened, without high-ranked divine power, it was useless.

Too much ti passed without finding the target. The trial could not be held on schedule, and agitation spread among them.

When those awaiting death realized their execution had been delayed, the prisoners in their cages began to laugh, drawing the knights’ clubs.

“Hehehe, why hasn’t your judgnt descended yet? Did your god sit on His ass?”

“Shut up!”

Thwack! Crack!

“Hehehe, such feeble strikes are useless! Once I get out, I’ll rip you apart piece by piece, into a hundred chunks to feed the goblins!”

Suddenly, a golden streak pierced the boasting demon’s heart. The monster collapsed inside the cage, its ferocious face still twisted into a mocking smile.

A high-ranking knight in a holy golden Tribunal robe strode forward with a spear. At once, the chaos fell silent.

“All death-row demons—execute imdiately!”

Everything seed like a coincidence, yet that coincidence triggered a strange chain reaction.

Rania still didn’t know why Vieya had disappeared. Was it to escape? Or was there another purpose?

The longer Vieya remained unfound, the greater Rania’s unease grew.

The longer a disturbance lasts, the greater the instigator’s goal must be.

“Violet Hero, what’s going on? You co back from Wind Township, and you can’t even keep track of a single person?”

The Tribunal Chief hadn’t cursed, but the anger in his tone could not be hidden.

Rania gave a short snort and didn’t respond to his sarcasm.

The iron door of the monitoring room opened. Rania stepped in first, pushing aside the staff to search the records herself.

But the more she searched, the grimr her expression beca.

On the high-resolution footage, from the mont she entered, it showed only her—her alone responding # Nоvеlight # to passing Tribunal staff, who greeted her without any sign of strangeness.

“How can this be?”

Rania’s fingers clenched tighter and tighter, her eyes growing cold. Such a thod, such preditation...

“A death-spirit type demon?”

The Tribunal Chief’s tone also grew heavy. Although he had just mocked the Hero, he did in fact respect the professional quality of every Hero.

The Hero’s Seal was not sothing easily gained, and a demon capable of making a Hero dance in circles was no small matter.

“Violet Hero, with your noble eyes, you truly didn’t see the slightest abnormality along the way?”

“...No.” Rania drew in a deep breath, then answered coldly. “I’m sorry, but I didn’t.”

“I see...”

Sothing deep glimred in the Tribunal Chief’s gaze. As he stared at the perfectly normal footage, countless thoughts raced through his mind.

“In any case, this must not spread to the other Tribunals. Otherwise, the record of our institution—untouched by demon infiltration for thousands of years since its founding—will be broken under .”

“If word gets out, then I as Chief will certainly be rembered forever—ha ha, as a joke!”

Turning to Rania, the Tribunal Chief said coldly: “No matter what, this demon is entirely your responsibility. Our Tribunal will fully support you, but you must capture her again.”

“We will give this demon who dares defy the Tribunal’s law a punishnt she will never forget!”

“Hmph.” Rania sneered. “I’ve never seen your ability in anything else, but when it cos to dumping bla, your talent is unmatched.”

“Look.” The Tribunal Chief pointed to the surveillance footage. “There is no evidence proving that demon ever entered our monitored range.”

Then he turned toward the trembling staff in the room and sternly asked:

“Did any of you see our esteed Violet Hero bring that demon into the Tribunal?”

“N-no!” the staff replied honestly with bowed heads.

The Chief laughed, then imdiately ordered his attendants: “Enough. Now that it has co to this... Seal every entrance and exit to the Tribunal. Cooperate fully with the Hero’s investigation. I am certain that in this matter, the Hero will provide us with a satisfactory result!”

The monitoring room’s door opened again. A shaft of light spilled in, but the attendant’s steps stopped at the threshold.

A figure stood in the doorway, as if already aware of the quarrel and bla-shifting inside.

“Wait, wait. Sealing the passages is fine. But, Chief, you can’t just throw everything aside and do nothing.”

“Senior Sister Shiyu?” Rania blinked.

“I’m younger than you. You should call Junior Sister instead!”

Hua Shiyu walked into the monitoring room, nudged the Hero’s arm, then said to the cold-faced Chief:

“You know that adorable demon entered the Tribunal, so how can you say things that undermine unity? What we need is to work together!”

The pink-haired girl smiled brightly, arms folded.

“If you don’t agree, then I’ll just have to notify the Tribunal’s Central Institute in the capital and request support.”
