Baby Zetty was not sure how many transits she had gone through. When the plane landed, Baby Zetty was dumbfounded when saw the deserted countryside in front of her. "Great-grandma, is this Cloud City?" She heard Mommy mention Cloud City before, which she described to be a beautiful town where the flowers were in bloom all year round. It was far from the impoverished countryside in front of her. Boye and Grandpa looked at each other. Then, Boye smiled and said, "Baby Zetty, this isn’t Cloud City. Cloud City is just a smokescreen that your daddy set up. The place we’re at is Dragon Island." Baby Zetty replied, "Oh." She then kept quiet the rest of the way. She planned to relax. It did not matter to her whether she went to a prosperous city or a remote countryside.However, when Boye took her home, Baby Zetty became a little nervous when she saw the experimental equipment of various shapes and materials along with the colorful test tubes. "Great-grandma, am I going to stud
Tears were pouring from her eyes as though there was a storm. After a long time, Baby Zetty finally settled down and she said, "Okay, I’ll learn. I’ll learn from you." Boye nodded in relief. "There’s no hurry, you’ve just arrived. Take a few days’ rest. I’ll bring you around so that you can familiarize yourself with the environment. Next time, you might be going to the mountains to collect herbs." "Oh." Baby Zetty was first introduced to the castle-like house. There were three floors above ground and two floors in the basement. The first floor was the living area. The kitchen, bathroom, and bedrooms were all on the first floor. Except for some beakers, there was no sign of anything medical-related. Not until they reached the second floor which was an exhibition. Each hall was divided into categories, and they included everything and anything related to medicine. Baby Zetty saw the densely packed bookshelves and suddenly felt like she had made a rash decision. "H
Imperial Capital. Late at night. Jenson and Baby Robbie secretly left the rented house and sneaked back to Mammoth Courtyard. When they were close to Madam Nephele's backyard, Jenson suddenly grabbed Baby Robbie's hand and solemnly said, "Baby Robbie, there’s something off about Madam Nephele. You have to be careful." Baby Robbie smiled and placed his hand on Jenson's shoulder. "Jens, how can we catch the tiger cub without entering the tiger's lair? I’ll break in to distract her, and you’ll sneak into her room to find out more about her." Jenson stretched out a finger and shook it in front of Baby Robbie's eyes. Baby Robbie wondered out loud and said, "Why? What’s wrong with my idea?" Jenson replied, "It’s a good idea, but our roles should be reversed. I'll deal with Madam Nephele while you inspect her room. If we’re in danger, you should run." Baby Robbie rolled his eyes at Jenson. "Do you think of me as a coward? You’re my brother, how can I abandon you?" J
Jens said, “Judy was the Ares family’s prisoner. Faith must have done something to disturb Chloe’s mental state and persuaded her into letting Judy go. Faith is related to Judy’s death one way or another.”Madam Nephele answered in a low voice, “Even if Faith killed Judy, why did you come looking for me, Young Master Jens?”Jenson’s profound and unfathomable pupils fell onto Madam Nephele as he said, “Madam Nephele, I heard that you were the one who recommended the underaged Faith to become the Ares family’s maid.”An obvious look of startlement flashed across Madam Nephele’s eyes, but she managed to recover her calmness rather quickly. She smiled lightly and replied, “Yes, I did. I pitied the child for having no father and mother, so I pleaded with Second Old Master to take Faith in.”Jenson spoke rather slowly, yet his tone carried a strong and formidable power, “You’re wrong, Madam Nephele. As long as one is human, then they’d have both a mom and a dad. Faith is no exception.”
Baby Robbie followed Jenson from behind, but he dared not disturb him so rashly. He was afraid that agitating the mentally confused Jenson would cause him harm.Along the way, Baby Robbie wondered that if Jenson had gotten information on Madam Nephele that could be used against her, would she stop at merely erasing his memories? Or perhaps she would use other means to get rid of Jenson?Suddenly, a gigantic shadow seemed to have fallen from the sky and landed in front of Jenson.Baby Robbie stared at the thing, and it turned out to be a reticulated python. The python was slithering on the ground while flicking its tongue out, hovering beneath Jenson’s foot.Then, the python suddenly rose in one bound and opened its ferocious mouth, aiming for Jenson’s neck. Upon seeing this, Baby Robbie hurriedly grabbed the seal in his hands and flung it at the python’s eyes.The seal seemed to project a curved line in the air. Once the line was projected to the ground by a ray of light, it expan
“Flute?” Jenson spat out.Baby Robbie nodded.Jenson exclaimed, “What a ferocious hypnotist! She made me sleep for six hours straight and lose a part of my memories. If she had hypnotized me into murder or arson in those six hours, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to control myself.”Baby Robbie said, “You’re quite right. Once you left the Mammoth Courtyard last night, you merely walked toward the direction of our rental place like a puppet. While we were halfway back, a python appeared out of nowhere and attacked you. I threw this seal out in a moment of desperation and that’s how I managed to save your life.”Baby Robbie explained the full details of what had happened last night to Jenson again.When Jenson heard this, he was utterly petrified.“Madam Nephele is indeed sly.”Baby Robbie played with his seal admiringly and said, “Before this, I always thought that it was bulky and a hindrance. I didn’t expect that it could save our lives last night. I’ll have to remember to
Jenson’s eagle-like pupils burst into rays of light when they spoke of hypnotism. He looked toward Baby Robbie, high in spirits as he asked him, “Say, who’s better in hypnotism, me or Madam Nephele?”Baby Robbie was still as absent-minded as always when answering. “You’ll know once you compete with her.”Jenson nodded while saying, “Great idea.”He looked at Baby Robbie while harboring malicious intentions and called out to him gently, “Robbie?”Baby Robbie looked up and saw a black shadow floating in front of him. It appeared to be a dragon-like creature at times, and occasionally, it shape-shifted into a wild goose… Baby Robbie asked in astonishment, “What are you?”“Robbie…” A melodious female voice rang in Baby Robbie’s ears.“Who are you?” Baby Robbie narrowed his pupils, and his consciousness was gradually entering a psychedelic state.“I’m a descendant of the Davis clan, and I’m here to ask you for something…”“Davis clan? Are you Madam Nephele?”Jenson bewilderedly loo
“I remember when Daddy taught me hypnotism, he once said that the space a hypnotized person enters is something related to the real space. Therefore, what the hypnotized person does and says inside of it has a certain significance to its actual reference.”“So what you’re trying to say is that Madam Nephele is also searching for a book in reality?”Jenson knocked on his head and said, “But how did the information of Madam Nephele looking for a book get inside your head?”“I didn’t know that she was looking for a book before!” Baby Robbie shouted out loud.Jenson rolled his eyes at him and explained, “No. You do know. Your brain cells have stored this information, and you were only able to say it out loud after getting hypnotized.”Baby Robbie placed his hands on his hips and said in bewilderment, “What you said has a certain scientific truth to it, but I’ve never been in contact with Madam Nephele before, so where did I get such a piece of information?”Jenson’s gaze suddenly shi
