Chapter 638 Someone Took the Doll

Author: Night Eleven
Aria recalled Barron's wise demeanor during the manifestation. In those days, someone had to step up and make sacrifices, even if they went unnoticed.

Barron had traded his life to safeguard the knowledge and influence behind him, ensuring that everyone believed he was merely a regular businessman.

If Barron had anything of true value, he could have handed it over to save his own life. But the Carver family couldn't be sacrificed, and their businesses were far too important.

Money was necessary for everything, and although Barron was known for his love of wealth, that same wealth had saved countless youths.

Aria stepped closer, her fingertip grazing Barron's portrait. A soft breeze drifted through the room. In the faded newspaper clipping, Barron stood tall and proud.

"I've been waiting for you. I finally get to see you. Good girl. You didn't deceive me. Farshya is truly strong now. I can rest easy with you here."

His words were inaudible to others. Aria knew all too well that th

    Landon smiled. He hadn't expected Jaleel to appear either. Gurion replied respectfully, "The Southbore Sanctum has remained peaceful for the past thousand years. However, when I awakened not long ago, I sensed a fluctuation of mysterious energy lingering in the area. Someone appeared to be searching for an opening."Aria's brows furrowed slightly at his words. That meant someone had already come to explore the Southbore Sanctum. Since this place was tied to her, she had no choice but to enter it.She lifted her gaze toward the depths of the rift, where mist churned and drifted endlessly. Her voice was cool, yet carried an unmistakable authority when she spoke. "In that case, open the entrance."At her command, Gurion quickly stepped aside and gestured respectfully toward the rift. "This way, please."Aria and Landon exchanged a glance before walking side by side toward the rift. Homer, who was behind them, quickly asked, "Aria, should we go in as well?"Aria paused and turned

    Jaleel, slumped on the ground, stiffened as if struck by lightning. His mouth hung open, yet not a single word came out. His bloodshot eyes were fixed on Gurion, kneeling before Aria. The madness and pride that had once burned in his eyes were gone, replaced by terror and confusion. How could Aria be Gurion's master? This was impossible!The guardian of the Southbore Sanctum had existed for a thousand years. His power was unmatched, and he had never paid heed to anyone. Because of that, Jaleel had never seen Gurion show such respect before.Aria looked no older than 20, and her strength paled in comparison to Gurion's. How could she possibly be his master?It was as though a thousand bolts of lightning had struck Jaleel's mind. He remembered her words about how prodigies like him were nothing before her. He recalled his arrogance, his provocations, and every smug, self-satisfied belief in his own superiority.It turned out he had been a joke from the very beginning. Aria hadn

    Yaphet looked over at Aria and Landon. "I haven't seen you two before. May I ask your names?""Aria Carver.""Landon York."Yaphet smiled. "The younger generation is truly full of talent. I take it this is your first time attending the Conclave of the Arcane at Mount Southbore."Aria looked up with a smile. "It is. It's all thanks to Mr. Bond. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been eligible."Yaphet nodded, then turned his gaze toward Homer. "Mr. Bond, you'll still need to lead these young people to Southbore Sanctum later. If you have time now, come with me to the pantry. There are a few matters I'd like to discuss with you."Homer paused for a moment before replying, "Sure. Go ahead and wait for me there. I'll join you shortly."Yaphet nodded. "Alright, I'll head there first."Once he was gone, Homer turned toward Aria. "Aria, I doubt anyone will trouble you this time. Still, there will definitely be people jealous of you. Since you stand out, you need to be careful—"Aria took so

    Aria moved so fast she might as well have teleported, leaving only a pale blur behind.Jaleel was still reeling from the heartbreak of his shattered spirit core when an invisible pressure suddenly closed in on him. He didn't even manage to see Aria. All he felt was a sharp pain between his brows. Then, a vicious force stabbed straight into his mindscape."Argh!" Jaleel screamed, louder than he had when his spirit core was destroyed. He clutched his head with both hands, curling into himself as he rolled wildly across the platform.Inside his mindscape, the very place where his Decator Essence resided, was being torn apart by an overwhelming force.His Decator Essence was the foundation he had cultivated for hundreds, even thousands, of years. It was his pride, his greatest asset, the belief that had carried him this far.Yet now, it was being shattered into fragments under a single strike from Aria.Standing before him, Aria looked down at him with indifferent eyes. "I chose no

    Jaleel raised his hands and aimed his fingertips at Aria's back. The Hushneedle flashed faintly in the fading glow of the sunset. "Aria, so long," Jaleel murmured. With the last of his strength, he fired the Hushneedle toward her back. The Hushneedle was impossibly fast, slicing through the air without making a sound. Most of the arcane seekers below were still reeling from the shock of what had just happened, completely unaware of Jaleel's movements.Only Ollin kept his eyes fixed on Jaleel with delight.Meanwhile, Homer was about to step forward to speak with Aria and Landon. Landon was looking at Aria with a gentle expression. No one noticed the poison-coated Hushneedle drawing closer and closer to Aria's back. Joy filled Jaleel's expression. The Hushneedle was about to hit its target. He could already picture the outcome.Once the Hushneedle embedded itself in Aria's back, the Soulbane Toxin would spread through her body and cause her meridians to burst. He imagined her ca

    Jaleel stuttered, "H-How could this be?"Aria let out a soft chuckle. "Jaleel, you're too slow."Rage exploded in his chest. He glared at her like a trapped predator sizing up its prey, then suddenly bit down hard on his tongue and spat a mouthful of blood onto his blade.This was the first time he had been humiliated so utterly in this lifetime. "Aria, I'll kill you!" he roared.The moment his blood soaked into the sword, it erupted with blinding brilliance. His aura surged violently, climbing until it hovered just shy of an Arcane High Priest's level.He had activated a forbidden Ligotti family art—burning his own life force in exchange for power. He knew the price. He simply didn't care. He could always pay the price, but he had to kill Aria now.If he failed here, Aria would become the greatest obstacle on his path forward.Jaleel charged again. His sword descended toward Aria's head with unstoppable force, the strike powerful enough to cleave a mountain in two. Even Homer
