Melvin and his men scoured the mountains for more than two hours, but finally, they found Falconn's body. Matthew met up with them the moment he got the news. When he saw the state the body was in, his face fell.

A sigh escaped Melvin's lips. "Goddammit. I wouldn't have recognized him if not for the clothes. He's literally skin and bones. No flesh, no blood, and no innards at all. He's a celebrated guy, and this is what he gets? Bro, can that bug actually do this? Eat up its victim's flesh and blood?"

Matthew shook his head. "Alone? No. But some practitioners can make the bug more aggressive and prod it into consuming its victim's flesh and blood."

Melvin asked, "They can do that?"

Matthew nodded. "Yes. Flesh and blood are the best fertilizers for Stargulfs. Voodoo must have whipped the bug into a frenzy with his blood, forcing it to consume everything in Falconn's body. For one, he can speed up the Stargulf's growth, and two, he can keep Falconn's energy fresher for a longer time."

Melvin's eyes went wide. "That b*stard has gone too far. Falconn deserves some respect! This is unbelievable!"

Matthew sighed. Voodoo will do anything for power.

Just then. a commotion broke out in the distance.

Matthew turned around and saw the Damrons coming over to them. He had told them the news the moment he got it. Matthew waved to the people outside, telling them to let the Damrons in.

When the group reached Matthew and the leader saw the body, he plopped down on the ground. "W-What is that?" he asked, his voice trembling.

"Falconn's body," Melvin answered.

The man's eyes went wide with terror. "I-Impossible. There's no way that's Falconn's body. Y-You're lying. Falconn doesn't look like that at all!"

Melvin asked, "Just look at the clothes."

The man snapped, "You're lying! It's not like clothes can prove anything. I bet you've hidden his body and put his clothes over... this! And you think we'd believe that? We're not stupid!"

That got on Melvin's nerves. "I don't give a f*ck what you think! His body is right here. You wanna take it? Take it. You don't believe us? Then f*ck off!"

The Damrons exchanged a look, and the man roared, "Larson! The family's going to be here any minute. Explain yourself, or you will die! Aurelius will not rest until you die!"

Matthew didn't even bother to look at him and waved the man off. "F*ck off."

The man roared, "You think you're all that? We're bigg—"

Before he could finish, Tiger and his men surrounded the guy. "You heard the man. F*ck off, or I'll make you. I don't mind throwing all of you down the mountain!"

The man shivered in fear, but still, he retorted, "Y-You wouldn't dare. My family is coming, and by then, none of you can escape. Larson, hand over Falconn's body right now! Just you wait! Your death is coming soon!"

Furious, Tiger roared, "Who do you think you are, dipsh*t? Boys, toss them down the mountain!"
