Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil-Novel

Chapter 497 Set-up P1

The clear sky was lit with the dying lights of sunset. The winds carried the smell of something burning.

"Why… Why are you doing this to me?

Please stop. I…. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Just leave me alone."

A young woman's pleading voice was heard in the forest not too far away from the city of Arangar. Her carriage looked like a meteor had fallen over it. There were a bunch of bodies that were lying around the carriage as well. They were wearing guard uniforms.

The guards' bodies had been partially charred. But it was apparent that there had been a few blunt traumas on or near their heads. Because their heads seemed to be squashed.

The young woman who had found herself in trouble was quite pretty. Her figure was not bodacious. But she had the right curves in the right places. She had long hair. Plus her green eyes and her petite nose made her look cute. But she soon found out that cuteness wouldn't help in times like these.

The young woman didn't manage to run far away from her carriage when tragedy fell on her from the sky. She was a Novice ranker herself. But compared to the battle prowess of her assailant, she was a nobody.

"Sorry? Sorry? Hahaha! You are saying sorry to me right now. But all I hear is that guy fucking you to his heart's content as you moan under him.

You fucking whore. You could have told me if you wanted money. I would have done everything in my power to give you the life you want. Why do you think I joined the Titus festival, risking my life?

That was all for you. All for you damn it. But now I feel pathetic. What use is the money when I can't even keep my wife loyal to me?

I fucking loved you, Tista. I… I…. Hahaha!

I'm so angry that I want to laugh. I can't even form sentences."

A young man in his 20s was standing in front of the kneeling woman. He had only worn cargo pants for clothes. His open torso spoke volumes about his strict body routine. He had a wide chest and well-defined abs. His muscular arms and pumped collar made him look like a veteran fighter. The muscles of his legs peeked through his pants which were torn in various places.

The young man was smiling. He chuckled from time to time. But nobody would say that he was enjoying the moment. That's because his brown eyes were filled with tears. No matter how much he wiped his tears with his hands, they would make their presence known in the next moment.

After all, the cause of his sorrows was right in front of him.

"Tuan… what… What was I supposed to do? You… you were not at home most of the time. We were broke together. Veraal was only trying to help me. We didn't know when it…"

Tuan's anger reached its peak when he heard Tista giving him lame excuses. It was true that he was not home most of the time. But this was also because of her that he had to take part in guild missions. She would often buy things that she didn't need only to throw them away when she liked them.

The couple's financial crisis was mostly caused by Tista's careless attitude. Yet Tuan never complained. He had thought that his wife would come around when they had their child together.

And now. Tuan laughed at his incompetence in not seeing the real Tista for the lying manipulating bitch she was. He was blinded by love after all.

When Tista complained to Tuan again about wanting to move to a better city away from the city of Arangar, Tuan had taken it to his heart. The city was great for adventurers and hunters alike. But it was no place to raise a family. Plus, because it was so close to the borders of the Badlands, it always carried the risk of being attacked by a monster horde.

So when the Titus tournament and its prize money were announced, it was Tista who had suggested to Tuan to take part in it and win it for her. Tuan was an experienced adventurer. He had come to the duchy of Nightshade from the duchy of Lehan during one of his missions. He stayed here after meeting Tista, falling in love with her over time.

Tuan had thrown his settled life at the duchy of Lehan to be with Tista. And now she was giving him pathetic excuses about how adultery was justified. Naturally, it angered Tuan to no end.

Tista regretted being with her lover Veraal. She had an affair with her lover on a whim, as a way to spice up her dull married life. She didn't think she would ever get caught. That's because she would make sure to schedule her rendezvous with her Veraal only when Tuan was out of the city.

But she could have never imagined that some vile creature would stalk her and leak her affair to her husband. She regretted not knowing about the person who had fucked her so royally in the ass more than her husband and her lover ever could.

"Tista… Tista… What did I do to deserve this? Did I ever mistreat you? Did I ever yell at you before today? Tell me. I want you to tell me before you die, you lying whore."

Tuan was very emotional in front of his cheating wife. He kept repeating the same thing. As if he was afraid to take the final step and kill her.

Using the private guards hired by her lover, Tista attempted to escape Tuan. She knew that even though the city of Arangar had offered her protection from her husband, he could always snap and kill her without worrying about the consequences.

That's why they had hatched a clever plan to run in disguise. But that plan came back to bite them in the rear. It was like giving Tuan the opportunity he needed to strike at them.

Veraal was not among the pile of bodies because he had managed to run away. He was an Ace too, after all. No matter what Tuan did, he couldn't take care of the guy who had cucked him in one swift move.

"Tista… I…"

Tuan was going to vent out his frustration more in front of his wife. But he heard an unknown voice interrupting him.

"My man, kill the bitch and be done with it. There's no point dragging this scene any more than it needs to. I'm short on time, you know."
