Taking the Mafia to the Magic World-Novel

Chapter 462  Shelby's Plan

A few minutes after Shelby broke into her own house, the entire more than 500 square foot property was silent as she stood in the dining room.

She had started her action there and then circled the entire property to accomplish her goals. But after she had done what she had to do and had ensured the death of almost everyone on the estate, she returned to where the brutalized bodies of her older brother, stepmother, and father lay.

Looking at these three, Shelby had a peaceful look, neither happy nor sad. Sure, she was happy to have achieved her goals. But killing her entire family didn't give her pleasure. It just gave her a strange feeling.

'You got what you planted...' She closed her eyes and stared at Amy's headless body and the two bodies with large punctures on the left side of their chests. 'The sowing law is supreme. Everything you do has a return. I know that one day I'll pay for what I've done here, but it's not my time yet.

I know there's no love between us but rest in peace. Don't be so terrible to those who should matter to you in the next life."

She turned her back, ignoring the bloody walls littered with brains, bones, and other body parts.

'Amy... Don't worry, I'll take care of your son.' A smile appeared on Shelby's face as she arrived at a room on the residence's second floor.

Looking through the cracks in the bedroom door, she saw a little boy sleeping peacefully under the formations she had set up earlier in the room.

'Levi is essential to me. He'll carry on your bloodline even though you've been a bitch, Amy.' Shelby thought before she left, not hesitating to return to the Fuller family estate.

...

Two hours later, it was still night in Millfall when many royal soldiers were already standing around the Staples estate, where minutes ago, a little boy had awoken from his sleep to find his home massacred.

Leaving that terrified place, Levi easily attracted the attention of the royal soldiers, for a curfew was in effect.

Although Levi was even younger than Nina, he was well-known among the local soldiers, being the son of one of the few local nobles.

As soon as someone spotted him, reinforcements were called to find out the situation of the Staples family, who had been almost completely massacred!

As he walked around the outskirts of the mansion, the Commandant, who had come from the capital to take charge of the local situation with his group, looked horrified.

"Another noble family has fallen in this city?" He commented to one of his companions as he saw the bloody situation inside the mansion.

More than 30 people had died for Shelby that night. Their bodies were scattered all over the mansion, with only a few rooms left untouched by her actions.

"It's really strange... But the Staples family hasn't fallen yet." Another soldier from the capital said as he saw the strange punctures on the bodies there.

As much as Shelby had used Vicente's weapons in this massacre, she had used a model of weapon that few people in the Mazzanti family knew existed. And this model was certainly not known to the soldiers of the kingdom.

Since the damage to the bodies did not appear to have been caused by bullets, the soldiers there didn't even consider the possibility that the Mazzanti family was connected to this incident.

One of the soldiers looked outside the house, where he could see a small boy crying and being comforted by soldiers. "That boy is now Baron Staples."

"Him?" Another soldier sighed. "Not until he grows up. Until then, Miss Shelby Staples will be in charge of the family."

Just as these soldiers were talking, Shelby arrived outside the building with a frightened look as she ran toward Levi.

A soldier had just been to the Fuller family to summon her, telling her everything that had happened.

Shelby was a good actress, and since she had a fantastic alibi, no one suspected her. On the contrary, when they looked at her, they could only feel sorry for this poor soul who had lost her whole family and now had to be strong to help the little boy who would be her responsibility from now on.

"Levi!" She called out her brother's name, the only person she had liked in that house until this evening.

"Big sister!" The young boy saw Shelby and immediately ran toward her, feeling like he was in an endless nightmare.

One of the soldiers from the capital saw Shelby in the area and went over to her.

"Miss Staples, I am sorry for your loss. But time is not on our side, and we can't give you time with your brother. What do you know about your family that would justify this night? Is there some great discontent that could cause this?" The soldier got to the point, giving Shelby and Levi no time to dry their tears.

Shelby continued to act but answered. "I have no idea who could have done this. We have grievances like any noble family. But nothing that could justify such a thing, at least as far as I can remember now."

"You were away from home at the time of the attack, but that's not the case with Levi. Can you understand why your brother is still here?" He asked something critically.

Shelby had expected this to be an important point in the investigation into her family's unfortunate fate. "It must have been because of me. I often play with formations with Levi, so he has a dozen of these devices in his room. Maybe he activated some of them before the incident."

She looked at Levi and asked. "What were you doing before you encountered the situation in our house?"

"I was sleeping..." The boy said as he sobbed. New chapters are published on novelenglish.net . Fɪre

"Did you activate any of the formations in your room?"

"Hmm, I did because I was afraid of the dark monsters..." He said.

Not only children on Earth were afraid of the dark and a variety of fantasy fears. But unlike Vicente's old world, some legends and myths exist in Polaris Realm!

The soldier sighed when he heard Levi's answer, realizing that a childish fear had probably saved the boy's life.

"Okay, that's enough for now. We'll talk again in the morning, Miss Staples. For now, you should rest and take care of your brother." The soldier said as Molly secretly sighed in relief.

Shelby thanked him and took no time to lead her brother away from this place full of people investigating the scenes of a massacre.
