Chapter 3465 Innocence
Ever since Floyd learned Forlevia’s technique, his power had increased greatly, especially when he was quick on the uptake. He was getting more and more confident.
“Are you okay? It must’ve hurt…” His heart was in anguish when he saw Gloria covered in blood. “If I have arrived earlier, you wouldn’t have been injured this badly. This is my fault!”
“You came at the right time, Floyd! If you had come earlier, we wouldn’t have been able to kill my master together! The moment she tried to kill me, she exposed her back to you…” Gloria explained.
He didn’t think about that. So I actually came at the perfect time? Haha…
He started laughing because he didn’t know that the perfect opportunity was arranged by Gloria.
Her plan was to make Floyd kill Linda, so she could get rid of any suspicions directed at her.
“I’ll take you to get treatment.” Floyd was worried about her injuries.
She shook her head. “No need. If your master finds out you’re taking me to get treatment, it’ll be bad. Honestly, I’m really sad right now, Floyd. I can’t believe my master, who had raised me since I was a kid, tried to kill me! It doesn’t make sense to me! I really can’t believe she’s the mastermind and tried to kill me. I’m feeling so awful right now. It feels worse than death…”
Gloria pretended to be heartbroken.
Floyd pursed his lips. “Who would’ve expected that your master is one of the masterminds?”
Linda’s death had cleared all of his suspicions of Gloria. Firstly, Linda was Gloria’s master. If her master tried to kill her, then it definitely must be true. After all, if it was just an act, why would Linda play along with Gloria and let herself be killed by me?
She knew her plan to frame Linda had worked when she saw his expressions. How could he continue to suspect me now that he killed Linda himself? Besides, he saw what happened with his own eyes. He watched my master attempt to kill me while I was heavily injured. Additionally, my master’s identity problem will explain Callahan’s death. After all, when I investigated Callahan, it was the same as telling my master the news.
“You should leave quickly. I’ll take care of the corpses here. Don’t make it so that more problems will be stacked on us…” Gloria urged.
“Ah, okay. Please… take care of yourself. Tell me if you need anything…” Floyd stuttered a bit.
Then, she recalled something and asked, “By the way, you managed to learn Evie’s technique?”
He answered, “Yeah. I didn’t touch it when you lost control during practice. However, Evie and her mother taught me the technique themselves, so I gave it a try and succeeded…”
That shocked her. This is easily exposed! The more people who practiced it, the easier it is to tell what’s the problem. Thankfully, he’s in my control. Otherwise, he would’ve questioned me.
She asked in disbelief, “You all didn’t lose control when practicing? How can it be?”
“Yeah, we were totally fine practicing it! I think it has something to do with body constitutions. Evie came up with the technique before spiritual energy revival, so it was much more suitable for ordinary people from the outside world to practice. As for you, you had always been staying in an environment with dense spiritual energy. That’s probably why you have an issue learning it…” Floyd explained as he cleared up her suspicions.
“That must be the case! I think we should find someone from the Ecclesiastic Order to test it so you won’t think I’m lying. I still need to prove my innocence!” Gloria suggested tentatively.
Floyd shook his head. “No need! I don’t suspect you because I know you aren’t lying!”
