Beast Evolution-Chapter 224 224 Black Liquid

The room was empty and it wasn't locked, there were two beds on each side of the room and it was larger than Ray's room.

Two tables and two chairs were on both sides of the beds, and each room in the knight dorm was shared by two people, the knights living in the knights' dorm were knights that had graduated from the knight academy and work as guards to protect the city.

"We have to go through their stuff," Ray said as he walked towards one of the knight's bags.

"You don't have the right to do that," Jake said but Ray was already acting on his own, he would have stormed in alone but he did have access to the dorm.

Ray scattered through the knight's stuff looking for anything he could find, Jake also searched through the other knight's stuff but they found nothing.

"Nothing..." Jake spoke.

"It must be around here... I'm sure of it" Ray said as he looked around the room.

"There's no way we can accuse someone without proof"

Ray didn't settle down, he was still searching around the room, he moved over to the bed and looked under the knight's bed.

"Bingo..." Ray said loudly and stretched his hand to grab it.

"Did you find something?" Jake asked and Ray brought out a tiny potion bottle.

The bottle was empty but it contained a tiny black liquid that was strange, to Ray it felt like the liquid was moving around the bottle on its own.

"Is it me or is the liquid alive?" Ray spoke as he stare at the bottle more intensely.

"It's definitely moving, what is this strange liquid?" Jake said.

"Dark Energy...this is most likely what is used to infect beasts"

"Are you sure, how did you know? Is this your first time seeing it?" Jake asked Ray.

"It's my first time but that's my conclusion, but what did he use the rest of the liquid for, did he perhaps drink it or gave somebody to drink"

"Drink it? And become infected humans, is that possible?" Jake was surprised at what was happening.

Ray obviously knows more than he did but he didn't know how, and even if he tries to question Ray he knows Ray isn't going to answer correctly because he definitely has lots of secrets.

"Where is the knight, we need to question him about this, it might be the real knight or someone else disguised as him," Ray said.

"Hand over the bottle, I want to inspect it"

Ray handed the bottle over to Jake and Jake opened the bottle, the stench that came from the bottle made it impossible for them to keep their nose open.

Jake immediately closed the bottle and covered his nose, Ray used both of his hands to cover his nose but he felt a sharp pain in his chest.

Ray couldn't withstand the pain and he let out a muffled groan and fell to the ground, the seal in his chest was acting up and he knew Kaan was responsible.

"Ray, are you alright?" Jake asked as he rushed towards Ray.

The pain washed through his whole body and tears began to rush out of his eyes uncontrollably, normally Ray would have spoken to Kaan but he couldn't move so there is no way he could open his [Void] to bring out his spear.

Ray controlled himself so he wouldn't scream but the pain was becoming unbearable for him, he was losing consciousness, what was Kaan doing that was the only thought coursing through Ray's mind as his vision became blurry till he passed out.

"Kaannn..." Ray shouted as his body jerked up from the bed where he was laid.

His breathing was heavy and he quickly looked around the room, he wasn't in the medical center but instead he was in a room, probably one of the senior knight rooms.

[Void]

"Kaan you bastard..." Ray shouted out loud.

"What is wrong...did you think I was responsible for that" Kaan shouted in Ray's head, he was clearly angry which made Ray surprised.

Ray was the one who was supposed to be angry but Kaan was beyond pissed.

"If it wasn't you who was, you made me go through unbearable pain, and it started from my chest where the seal was" Ray shouted out loud again.

"We are in trouble...not just us, the whole of your world is in trouble, your race would be eradicated from this world," Kaan said in a shaky voice.

Ray could feel that Kaan was afraid from the way he spoke, he was surprised that a demon like Kaan would be afraid of something.

"What are you talking about, why would my race be eradicated?" Ray asked.

"That liquid you found is the reason you went through unbearable pain, it reacted to my presence in your body," Kaan said.

"I still don't understand, what is that liquid that made it react to you?"

"My master, the demon Lord is the one responsible for creating that liquid" Kaan spoke.

"Your master...I thought you said all of you kind was killed, that you survived because you were imprisoned?" Ray asked immediately.

"Yes, but I'm very sure my master is responsible for this, if a human created this it wouldn't react to my presence, but if my master is alive I would be able to sense his presence, but I can't"

"So that means he's not alive or what"

"He's definitely alive but he must be drained, weak to the extent that I can't sense him," Kaan said.

'I thought Draco was the one responsible for creating the infected beast, turns out it's a demon, the strongest demon of all demons, the demon Lord' Ray said Inwardly.

"Who is Draco? Why did you think he was responsible?" Kaan asked.

"He attacked Avalon and took a scroll, the knights said he took an ancient scroll, there are two scrolls and the second one is here in the knight academy, he's very powerful and has a group of powerful people by his side" Ray explained. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

"Do you happen to know what the scroll is about?"

"I don't..."

"Then why are you suspecting this Draco?" Kaan asked.

"The infected beast doesn't attack him, instead they obey his command"

"We need to find this Draco immediately, I have a theory, maybe my master is using him to plot his revival back in this world..."
