"He killed his own sister's son, why would he care about disgracing his sister?"

"What did you say?" Cohen turned around abruptly to look at Lynn, his face full of astonishment.

Upon hearing this, Ruth, who was being escorted nearby, quickly lowered her head, trembling and timid, not daring to utter a sound for fear of being noticed by others.

Jeken, who was also an accomplice, also changed his expression drastically.

He never expected that Lynn would reveal this at this time, in front of the official members of the Knightworth family.

Upon realizing this, Jakeken hurriedly explained:

"You're lying! I didn't kill Lynn at all!!"

After saying that, Jeken suddenly realized that his words were inappropriate and quickly added:

"Lynn, you have such a vicious heart! To harm your uncle, you actually tried to frame me!"

Cohen, who was initially taken aback, turned sharply to look at Lynn upon hearing this:

"Are you Lynn Knightworth?"

"How did you get so fat?"

Lynn, who was about to refute Jeken and increase the guy's strength, was suddenly interrupted by Cohen's questioning.

What do you mean, "How did I get so fat?"

Am I overweight at 80 kilograms when I'm 1.8 meters tall?

Lynn stared at Cohen speechlessly, her sullen little eyes making Cohen's expression quite strange.

"Ahem!" Cohen coughed, trying to justify himself, "The last time I saw you was five years ago. I was the one who determined your blood concentration back then, do you remember?"

At this point, Lynn emphasized again, "Sorry, I am not Lynn Knightworth, he has been killed by his uncle!"

Upon hearing this, Cohen couldn't help but take another look at Lynn's face. Although it had become much rounder, he could still see the shadow of Lynn Knightworth when he was thin.

But Lynn himself actually said that he had been killed by Jeken.

Thinking of this, Cohen couldn't help but turn his head and look at Jakeken suspiciously, wondering what this guy had done to push Lynn to this point.

At this moment, noticing Cohen's suspicious gaze, Jeken immediately felt a chill and quickly explained:

"You're talking nonsense!"

"You're perfectly fine and alive here!!"

"Then prove it!"

Lynn looked at Jake with a smile, a smile like that of a cunning fox:

"Prove that I am Lynn Knightworth!"

Upon hearing this, Jeken's expression suddenly froze.

Chapter 18 Sir, you don't want your wife to suffer, do you?

At this moment, seeing Jeken's expression freeze, Lynn blurted out:

"You know, the Knightworth family members all have red dragon blood. Do you think I have red dragon blood?"

Jeken did not answer, but remained silent.

Seeing his expression, Lynn frowned, but continued:

"Don't I know my own background?"

“I was just a refugee from outside Mona City. When I couldn’t make a living, I came to the city to find work. Then, because I looked like Lynn Knightworth, your family tricked me into coming here under the guise of hiring. I pretended to be your nephew to cover up the fact that you killed the real Lynn.”

Lynn recounted the experiences he had fabricated for himself, trying to make them conform to common sense.

For Lynn, as long as his identity as an alien from another world was not exposed, everything else was a minor matter.

Lynn's argument had precedents in the various laws of Mona City that he had seen before.

Several noble territories not far from Mona City lack a household registration system, and due to their chaotic management, people often smuggle themselves into Mona City to join the ranks of adventurers and earn a living.

While the city of Mona officially refuses to accept these refugees, they tacitly condone such behavior in private.

After all, the residents of these villages are close to Mona City. Although they are governed by nobles, their living conditions are not bad. With the big city behind them and the dungeon adventure as a way to make money, many families in these villages are actually quite wealthy, and they have raised many powerful adventurers.

Faced with this group that possessed military power, the nobles dared not oppress them at will and could only acquiesce to the existence of this situation.

Given this premise, as long as Lynn verbally admits that he is just an ordinary villager who came to Mona City to make a fortune and aspires to be an adventurer, the risk is actually very small, as long as the authorities don't investigate him too thoroughly.

At the very least, it won't be as dangerous as being killed by Jeremy Lin.

Therefore, after studying the various regulations of Mona City, Lynn decided to take advantage of the power of the Mona City government to deal with Jacken, or at least force him to reveal his true strength and weaknesses.

Therefore, Lynn decided to directly sue Jack Ken, and he was determined to win the case.

However, Lynn's words made Cohen Knightworth, who was standing next to him, frown.

In fact, Cohen could only be said to have believed Lynn's account to a certain extent.

While the Knightworth family has its share of internal strife, it has never reached the point of murder, let alone an uncle killing his nephew.

What's more, the uncle actually found someone to replace his nephew, creating the illusion that his nephew was still alive?

If Lynn is lying, then his fabrication is quite interesting. If the story didn't take place at the Knightworth family home, Cohen would be happy to watch the spectacle.

But given the current situation, Cohen is far from happy.

Meanwhile, Lynn continued speaking:

"Therefore, I am not Lynn Knightworth himself, and therefore I do not have the bloodline of the Red Dragon."

"I think this shouldn't be too difficult to check, right?"

Upon hearing Lynn's words, Jacken, who had been quite nervous, seemed to be reminded and gradually calmed down.

Lynn, who was standing very close to Jeken and had been staring at him, was startled.

Does Jeken really have a way to prove he is Lynn Knightworth?

This old man, did he really have a backup plan?

Lynn was startled, but not too panicked. Instead, he waited for the next key figure he had prepared to arrive.

He refused to believe that Jeken could really keep the whole truth hidden.

If he could actually do that, Lynn would immediately run away, hide in the Adventurers' Guild, and avoid Jake whenever he saw him.

After all, it's better to live than to die, and Lynn was quite willing to back down when faced with a life-threatening situation.

“Cohen, since Lynn is so shameless, even abandoning the family name, to falsely accuse me here, then you should have his bloodline concentration tested.”

Jeken took a deep breath, as if trying to calm himself down and hide the sadness he felt at being falsely accused by his nephew:

"The Crimson Dragon Bloodline will prove who the liar is!"

Upon hearing this, Lynn's eyelids twitched. Could it be that he possessed the red dragon bloodline of the Knightworth family?

But that's impossible!

He clearly traveled to another world in his true form!!

At this moment, seeing the two tribesmen fighting to this point, Cohen also began to have doubts:

"Since you emphasize it so much, let's give it a try."

To be honest, Cohen also wanted to resolve this matter quickly.

The Knightwood family, at the gates of the military police headquarters, staged this incident of a nephew suing his uncle, a truly bizarre and unfortunate event.

Even if it's too late and not many citizens see it, he doesn't need to think about it; this kind of news will definitely spread like wildfire within the military police.

At that time, the Knightworth family will probably have a good show of their faces in the military police!

How can these two fellow clansmen not care about the family's reputation at all?

"I have the equipment for testing blood vessels in my office."

"But before that, I must remind you that if it's just a misunderstanding, you'd better stop here."

"Otherwise, once we enter the bloodline testing phase, the City Lord's Mansion will definitely intervene, and then an apology won't be of any use."

As Cohen finished speaking, he looked at Lynn and Jake with a warning in his eyes.

Lynn, in particular, received a fierce glare from Cohen.

Cohen still doesn't believe that Lynn Knightworth was murdered.

The main problem is that this is too absurd. There is no precedent in the Knightworth family for an uncle killing his nephew.

Therefore, Cohen is inclined to believe that Lynn is Lynn Knightworth, but due to some conflicts with Jeken, things have turned out this way.

However, considering that Lynn's parents died young while exploring the dungeons, and that he himself resisted dungeon adventures and gave up becoming an adventurer, living alone in the city ever since, Cohen didn't blame him too much for bringing shame to the family. He simply reminded him:

"The use of the bloodline device requires an application to the City Lord's Mansion. I will definitely report your matter to the City Lord's Mansion at that time."

"If it turns out to be a misunderstanding, then it will be the adults in Mona's family who will give you a good talking-to!"

Upon hearing that Cohen was going to ask the Mona family for help, Ruth, who was standing to the side like an ostrich, dared not utter a sound.

When Jeken heard the name of the Mona family, his face turned ugly, and he looked very frustrated.

Lynn, on the other hand, seemed completely unconcerned.

"You mean to inform the Mona family?"

"There's no need for that. I already informed them a long time ago!"

Cohen, who had only intended to scare Lynn and make him stop, was immediately taken aback and stared at Lynn in disbelief.

"What did you say?"

Jeken, standing to the side, also stared wide-eyed.

At this moment, Cohen rushed to Lynn, grabbed his shoulder, and pressed him for an answer:

"What do you mean you've already notified the Mona family?"

"How did you get in touch with the Mona family?"

"Of course, through adventurer advisors!"

Lynn's smile at this moment was full of malice:

"For something like this, of course we should ask the Mona family, who symbolize justice, to investigate."

“Perfect timing. My adventurer advisor happens to be a member of the Franger family and has the ability to contact a member of the Mona family.”

"In that case, it shouldn't be hard to understand why I asked her for help, right?"

"Adventure Consultant? The Franjer Family?"

Upon hearing so much information, Cohen immediately thought of something:

"Is that Mira the Flash? That hero-level adventurer who just retired?"

Cohen immediately understood who Lynn had reported to, and his expression went blank, as if he had stepped on an electric shock. He stammered, "..."

"That Mona family member that Mira can contact..."

"It's broken!!"

"It's that witch!!"

Just as Cohen blurted out the words, a girl's soft laughter rang out:

"Although this isn't the first time I've heard of it."

"But isn't it a bit too rude to call someone a witch behind their back?"

Hearing the sound, Lynn turned around and immediately saw a figure stepping off the carriage below the steps.

She was a girl adorned with pink and black dots.

She had short, pink, ear-length hair with inward curls, but her face was covered by a thin black veil, revealing only a pair of dazzling pink eyes that resembled the starry sky.

She wore a long black dress with intricate patterns, and with her small hands lifting the hem, she stepped down from the carriage via the prepared steps, supported by Mira like a gentleman.

After landing, the girl looked towards the steps leading up to the temple.
