The Badge is the only way to confirm one's identity, just like an identity card. It is not replicable, and no one would impersonate it.

Samantha asked, "Do you know Eleanor?"

"I do."

"Have you ever had a conflict with her?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"Although she is a Goddess, she delayed action in the battle against the Underworld Clan, which Arno can testify to."

A twitch formed at the corner of Arno's mouth. Damn it, how did I get dragged into this? This has nothing to do with me.

Samantha continued to ask, "Have you ever been to the black market?"

"What is the black market?"

Samantha looked at Jiang Chen, her eyes nearly blazing with fire.

Can't admit it, definitely cannot admit it. I damn well have never been to the black market. You can't wrongly accuse a good person!

Samantha said, "Some say you colluded with the Heavenly Earth Association and killed Eleanor, the Goddess of the Continent of All-Gods, and Harkins, the Divine Child of the Bach Family. Is there any truth to this?"

Jiang Chen replied indignantly, "Slander! As a Hero of the Continent of All-Gods, how could I possibly do such a thing? Slander, this is definitely slander."

"Whether it is slander will be thoroughly investigated. Why are you so agitated?"

"I am not agitated; I am just furious."

Samantha said, "Please remain rational."

Jiang Chen exclaimed inwardly. So, they have discovered it, huh? But do you have any evidence? The Continent of All-Gods demands evidence; don't talk nonsense without it.

Samantha continued, "Just yesterday, a group claiming to be from the Heavenly Earth Association entered the Bach Family residence, attacking and killing its members, leaving hundreds dead. We have received a whistle-blower's report."

"However, rest assured that we will not act against you without evidence. We have seen your achievements. You stopped a million-strong army from the Difiled God Camp, struck down the Son of God, and single-handedly slew a million from the Underworld Clan."

"You helped the Elven World recover the Spiritual Pearl."

"Your contributions to the Continent of All-Gods are well recognized. We will not wrong a good person, but we will not let a bad person go either."

Err...

This speech sounds all too familiar, full of clichés.

Samantha continued, "However, to clear your name, you need to join the Legion to eradicate the Heavenly Earth Association. Please come with me to report now."

Jiang Chen gave an awkward smile. "Can I refuse?"

"What do you think!" Samantha said, looking at Jiang Chen teasingly.

Put simply, I'm a suspect currently under investigation. If I don't participate, it indicates that I have something to hide. Only by participating can I completely clear myself of suspicion.

"As a Hero of the Alliance of All-Gods, I will naturally participate."

"Good, then come with me!"

Jiang Chen nodded resignédly.

He followed Samantha and left.

「...」

Arlene touched her head, confused. "Why does the Prosecutor suspect Jiang Chen of being involved with the people from the Heavenly Earth Association?"

Roy shook his head. "In the future, try not to get mixed up with him. That guy is a bit troublesome."

"It's just a suspicion. I believe in Jiang Chen."

"Whether there's any truth to it or not, it's best if you all stay out of Jiang Chen's affairs."

"Understood."

Roy turned and walked away.

Arno pondered. This situation is a bit tricky!

「...」

Following behind Samantha, Jiang Chen asked, "So, who exactly reported me?"

"What, are you thinking of revenge?"

Am I that kind of person?

"How can that be? I just wanted to have a conversation with him. I am a Hero of the Continent of All-Gods; isn't this tarnishing my reputation?"

Samantha stopped in her tracks. "It was someone from the Bach Family who reported you."

"You believe their words too? I once had a grudge against the Bach Family; they are framing me," Jiang Chen argued.

"Whether it is framing or not is not for them alone to decide. We belong to the Prosecutor's office; as soon as we receive information, we will begin an investigation. Currently, there is no evidence to suggest you conspired with the Heavenly Earth Association."

"I believe the law is fair."

Samantha said, "This time, the Heavenly Earth Association attacked the Bach Family. The Alliance of All-Gods has already formed an army of ten thousand to pursue and kill the Heavenly Earth Association."

"Kill everyone?"

Samantha turned to ask, "What do you mean?"

"It seems not every one of The Fallen cultivates True Qi."

Samantha said sternly, "Jiang Chen, you should be aware of your identity. You are a Hero of the Continent of All-Gods. The Fallen are evil beings; they brazenly assaulted the Bach Family. This is a provocation to the Alliance of All-Gods."

"What if it's a one-year-old infant?"

Samantha looked at Jiang Chen and said, "You can close your eyes."

Jiang Chen fell silent.

This is total extermination! Villains truly never have good endings; those who rebel will eventually have their entire families wiped out. How the hell am I supposed to handle this?

An army of ten thousand might seem large, but it's just a drop in the ocean for the Continent of All-Gods. When the Continent of All-Gods goes to war with the Difiled Camp, isn't it always with armies of millions? But what about The Fallen? Do they even have an army of ten thousand? A few thousand would be quite impressive.

Jiang Chen quickly reached a square with Samantha; it was clear they were well prepared. The leader this time was from the Bach Family.

Samantha whispered, "This time the leader is Jiares, a Sixth-stage Magic Swordsman from the Bach Family, and also a core member of the family."

"He also holds the title of Prosecutor."

"What do you mean?"

"Prosecutors hold a lot of power. They monitor [Apostles], [Cataclysm], and [Order]. Once these individuals commit any crimes, they will take action."

"I forgot to tell you, Prosecutors are immune to one hundred percent of damage. Even [Order] Masters cannot harm them, unless they are Demigods."

Jiang Chen pondered.

Immune to one hundred percent of damage? How am I supposed to deal with that? And he's a member of the Bach Family? Isn't this a death sentence?

Samantha continued, "But rest assured, I was ordered to investigate you and will follow behind you. This is also to protect you. The Alliance of All-Gods is aware of your grievances with the Bach Family, and I will not let him have an opportunity to act against you."

"During this operation, you just need to kill members of the Heavenly Earth Association. I will report all your actions, including when you urinate and so on."

Damn it... This woman is basically here to monitor me. Is this really necessary? Do Prosecutors really have that much power? Anyone who encounters a Prosecutor must tremble, even [Order] Masters.

A thought struck Jiang Chen. "Can I become a Prosecutor?"

"You wouldn't want to."

"I do!"

"To become a Prosecutor, the first step is to accept the investigation of the Alliance of All-Gods. Your memory will be checked every month to ensure you haven't betrayed the Continent of All-Gods."

Alright then! Obviously, there's no chance now.

I killed Eleanor and was responsible for Harkins's death. I can't let my secrets be discovered. This means a Prosecutor must be loyal to the Continent of All-Gods, absolutely above any suspicion of betrayal.

With a single sentence from Samantha, Jiang Chen gave up completely.

At this moment, Jiang Chen understood. The Bach Family suspected him of colluding with the Heavenly Earth Association, so they reported him, hoping to use this opportunity to eliminate him. After learning about it, the Alliance of All-Gods had dispatched Samantha to protect him.
