Chapter 923 The Truth

Author: Night Eleven
Aria looked over and saw a mother and son standing by the door. The woman still had her apron on. She looked like an employee of a fruit chain store.

The woman held her son's shoulder and walked forward. "A handsome man told us the bullying case is being handled here. Is this the right place?"

Due to the unique nature of the bullying case, only the Special Missions Unit was authorized to handle it.

Aria walked over to them. "Ma'am, you're in the right place. We're the ones handling it."

The woman hurriedly said, "That's great! My son has some information to tell you. We hope this can help Shirley."

Aria's eyes lit up. "What we need the most now is new clues. Thank you."

It was then that Lucian lifted his head and looked at Aria. "Before I give you any information, I would like to ask the person in charge a few questions."

"I'm the person in charge. Go ahead." Aria handed Sharon a cup of water. "Why don't we sit down and talk?"

Lucian felt touched to see his mother respected. "I

    Aria suddenly leaned closer. "What does it have to do with you?"Landon froze for a moment before snapping back to his senses. "Nothing. I'm just a patient."Aria batted her eyelashes. "But you're already nearly recovered."He let out a light cough. "Not yet. I'm still recovering and need your treatment."…Meanwhile, in the basement of a windowless villa, the only source of light came from a dust-coated oil lamp beside a small altar.The wick had been drawn thin, its flame trembling at the slightest draft. Long shadows stretched across the stained walls, resembling dried streaks of blood.The altar itself was made of oak, its smooth surface faintly glinting under the weak lamplight. At its center sat a Krowonian doll.The doll, barely half a foot tall, wore a silk robe that glimmered faintly in the dim glow. Frayed golden threads unraveled down the fabric, revealing a dark underlayer that resembled dried veins.Its face was so pale it was nearly translucent, but the fine line

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 2098 Something Wrong

    Homer looked down at his hands, feeling the steady return of his magic flowing through his veins. A long-lost smile spread across his face. This time, he hadn't just escaped death; he had regained his powers and grown stronger than before. He could tell that he was only half a step away from becoming an Arcane High Priest.Aria jutted her chin. "Mr. Bond, rest well. If you don't recover soon, your apprentices might come knocking on my family's door."Homer frowned. "If they dare to cause you all any trouble, I'll kick them out of the sect."Aria smiled. "Good. Take care of yourself. I still have other matters to handle, but I'll visit you again tomorrow."Homer waved his hands. "Go ahead. Now that my power is back, there's no need to worry about Sylas ambushing me. I'll be fine."With that, Aria and Landon left his ward.…In the meantime, Sylas and his men were somewhere in the underground palace. A thin chill gathered at Sylas' fingertips as his men handed over the dossier

    The driver instinctively slammed on the brakes, the tires screeching sharply against the pavement.Sylas pushed the car door open and looked ahead warily. Beneath the streetlight, a lone figure stood in the middle of the road. His poised stance and tailored attire only heightened the quiet menace radiating from him."It's you?" Sylas' voice chilled. He recognized the man as the one usually with Aria. He had always come across as mild and unassuming—an ordinary, defenseless man.Yet, something about Landon's presence triggered every alarm in Sylas' mind. The weight of his presence was crushing, far beyond what Sylas had felt even when facing Homer. It was obvious that Landon was far more dangerous.Landon turned slowly, revealing his handsome yet indifferent face. His eyes were devoid of emotion, gleaming like ice untouched for centuries. The moment his gaze met Sylas', the latter stiffened. It was the look of a predator sizing up its prey, and it stole the air from Sylas' lungs.

    One after the other, Aria and Landon stepped into the ward and approached Homer, who lay unconscious on the hospital bed. "Mr. Bond, hang in there," Aria said quietly, her voice soothing. "I will save you."Then, she turned to Landon. "I need to focus on treating Mr. Bond. I'll leave everything else to you."He nodded lightly. "Okay."Aria took out her needle case again. Pinching a silver needle between her fingers, she slowly inserted it into Homer's skin. The needle trembled at once, as though encountering a terrifying force.From the vibration, Aria sensed it clearly—Homer's consciousness had been brushed by a streak of dark energy."I'm counting on you," she whispered. Without another word, she closed her eyes and gathered her consciousness into a fine strand. Following the markings on the needle's base, she guided it carefully into Homer's mind.On the bed, Homer's previously steady breathing suddenly faltered. His eyes snapped open, and his left hand lunged toward Aria

    No one knew the old man wasn't a real person. In truth, he was a puppet Sylas had animated using dark arts, and it had served its purpose well.The puppet had lowered Homer's guard and seized his soul before he even realized what was happening. Had he not been gravely injured, he would never have fallen for it. After all, he was a powerful arcane priest. But now, he was completely at Sylas' mercy.That was exactly what Sylas had counted on. What surprised him, however, was that someone had managed to save Homer in spite of those heavy injuries.So, he gathered everyone who had been at the scene and visited Homer at the hospital. It was the perfect opportunity to blend in with the crowd and get close to him.Homer's mentees were guarding his ward. To bypass them, Sylas needed a new plan.Meanwhile, Homer's consciousness was in chaos. His soul was trapped in a purplish black dimension, while Sylas' spectral form stared at him with mocking amusement."Homer, you're a tough one. I

    At the York residence, Titus sneered. "You finally came home after all this time. I wouldn't have known you'd returned to Janovin if Keith hadn't told me."Landon gulped and gave a low chuckle. "Well, I'm home now, Grandpa."Titus gave him a sidelong glance. "Alright. I suppose I can't control you anymore."Then, his expression softened as he turned to Aria, who sat nearby. His gloomy face brightened instantly. "Aria, did this brat get into trouble when he was with you? If he did—or upset you in any way—just tell me. I'll make sure he regrets it.""Grandpa…" Landon began."Shush. I'm talking to Aria. Go make us some tea instead," Titus interrupted. "I want to hear what she has to say. Don't worry, Aria, I've got your back. Speak freely."Landon shook his head with a faint smile, but the moment he stepped inside, the smile faded, replaced by a steely look."Did you find out where he is?" he asked."Sir, it's difficult," the crow replied, emerging from the shadows. "I might've be
