Chapter 593

Author: Dreamy Fire
The man approaching was none other than Ethan.

"Hah, looks like Medic's Haven hasn't been standing still these past years." Felix smiled. The poison he had used was not particularly sophisticated, but it was not something just anyone could detect and neutralize either.

"Are you admitting that you've poisoned me then?" As Ethan walked closer, his smile vanished.

He never would have imagined that someone could poison him without detection. After all, he was considered a rising star at Medic's Haven. If he hadn't happened to deliver something to a Supreme Elder, he would be dead by now.

Instead of answering, Felix turned to Edmund, who had not said a word since they arrived. "So bringing me here to 'resolve things' was just a cover for my execution, wasn't it?"

Edmund sighed. "Felix, I'm sorry, but my hands are tied. Poisoning a member of Medic's Haven is an act of war against our entire organization. If Lady Summers hadn't become involved, we would have taken you by force inste

    Felix kept buying snacks along the way since he really was hungry. Meanwhile, Ethan had to trail behind like a servant as he grudgingly paid for everything. When they reached a grand hall, Felix did not need to guess what it was. Ethan's excited expression said it all. This was where the leader of Medic's Haven was. "Want to bet you'll be the one dying today instead? Just wait and see," Felix challenged.Ethan scoffed at this absurd claim and followed Felix inside with a cold smile. The hall was lined with two rows of wooden armchairs, all occupied by elders. Edmund took the only empty seat. At the head of the room sat a middle-aged man. That was probably Jasper Blackthorn himself. "Mr. Blackthorn! This is Felix Zeller, the scum who attacked me in front of the law enforcement team and poisoned me in secret!" After his outburst, Ethan fell silent. He knew better than to speak out of turn before Jasper and the elders. While Jasper studied Felix silently, an elderly man slapped

    Ethan's expression kept shifting. Jasper had always been known for his swift decisions, so why was he dragging out Felix's judgment like this? Pocketing his phone, Felix shook his head slightly. "Let me ask you something. What proof do you have that I poisoned Ethan? And have you even investigated his actions?" While Jasper remained expressionless, Henrik sneered and said, "Medic's Haven's reputation speaks for itself. Ethan is my disciple, and his character is impeccable. He's always stayed true to our mission of healing. What's there to investigate? "As for the poisoning, you must have done it if he says so! After all, he's a trustworthy man." Felix laughed. "Incredible. So this is what Medic's Haven has become? If the founder of Medic's Haven knew, he'd be rolling in his grave!" Instantly, murderous intent filled the hall. Every elder jumped to their feet in rage. They would have torn Felix to pieces right there if Jasper had not held his silence. Even Edmund frowned dee

    Finally, they had reached the heart of the matter. Magnus was their most senior Supreme Elder, and no one knew his exact age. He never appeared even at Medic's Haven's grandest ceremonies. How could he possibly show up for some unknown person like Felix? It would be a joke if they entertained everyone who claimed to know Magnus. Would Magnus possibly show up and verify each claim personally every time? Ethan remained unconcerned. He knew Jasper's caution stemmed from that incident five years ago and Felix's connection to Xena. But none of that mattered now since Felix would surely die. Less than ten minutes later, Jasper returned. This time, he stood near Felix instead of taking his seat. "Welcome, Mr. Grimwald!" All the elders hurriedly stood, their faces shocked. Impossible! Magnus had actually come? "Welcome, Mr. Grimwald!" Whatever their thoughts were, they had to show proper respect to Magnus. As someone coughed, Felix heard an elderly voice. "I want to see the youngs

    Felix clasped his hands respectfully. "You're sharp as ever, Mr. Grimwald." He had performed the same motion twice because he had reset the Miracle Card. It was something Magnus had instantly recognized. In that case, Magnus naturally knew this young man was Gerald's disciple. Only two people could reset a Miracle Card, and Felix clearly was not Gerald himself. "Mr. Grimwald, do you actually know him?" Jasper sensed something was off. Everyone else wore shocked expressions too. Who could have guessed Felix really knew Magnus? Especially Ethan, who was ogling at them wide-eyed. He could not accept this reality. If Magnus spoke up for Felix, wouldn't he be able to walk out of Medic's Haven unscathed? How could Ethan get his revenge then? Magnus' eyes flickered as he turned to Jasper. "Oh right, why exactly is he here? Why are you all gathered?" Clearly, he did not know the reason for Felix's visit. Jasper hesitated to speak. Magnus' word was absolute in Medic's Haven. Who w

    Though Magnus usually wore a kind expression, he now showed his absolute authority in front of everyone. Others held their breath in fear. Even Jasper trembled, afraid of being implicated. They were shocked by how defensive Magnus was of Felix. But they were even more curious about what gave Henrik the courage to challenge the respected Supreme Elder. Surely he hadn't lost his mind over his disciple, had he? To everyone's surprise, Henrik showed no fear. He met Magnus' gaze and said, "What if I choose neither?" Just as Magnus' brows furrowed, a voice rang out. "Magnus, has all that seclusion made your temper worse?" Another elderly man appeared. Though also white-haired, he appeared much more vigorous than Magnus. "Greetings, Mr. Hartford!" Everyone bowed. From the title, Felix realized who this was. It was another Supreme Elder. Magnus understood now. "No wonder this little fellow dares challenge me. I assume he has your backing, Sebastian?" Sebastian Hartford's appearan

    Everyone stood frozen in shock. Magnus was usually a kind and reclusive Supreme Elder. Who could have imagined him to kill someone suddenly? Besides, he did it right in front of Sebastian. Even Felix was startled. Ethan gaped at where his mentor had been ranting just a minute ago. Now, not even a single intact bone remained. "Magnus, you've gone too far!" Sebastian's expression darkened. He had not expected Magnus to strike so suddenly. "Have I? Have you forgotten those years when we followed our mentor during Medic's Haven's founding? Wasn't he asking for death when he dared do such underhanded tricks before me? I gave him a chance, but he refused it." At these words, Sebastian recalled something and fell silent. Magnus' words rang through the hall. "Remember this! Medic's Haven will function without any of you. Don't think too highly of yourselves." "Yes!" Now in complete despair, Ethan found a strange clarity. He glared and shouted, "Why? I'm the one who practices unde

    The miracle doctor's name alone was intimidating enough, but they had now learned that their revered founder, Orion, had entered traditional medicine under his guidance. It was no wonder Magnus had been so protective of Felix. Everything made sense now. Those two deaths today were hardly unjustified. Suddenly, Jasper's body trembled as a terrifying thought struck him. Orion had been dead for so many years, and Magnus, his first disciple, was already so old. Wouldn't that mean Gerald… …On the drive back, Felix was enjoying a sausage. The street food at Medic's Haven was excellent, so he had bought plenty to share with Jack, Xena, and the others. "Mr. Zeller, there's something ahead. Let me check it out. Please wait here." After hearing the driver's words, Felix glanced up. Then anger flashed in his eyes. "Stay here. I'll look." A Maybach was blocking the road, and standing beside it was someone Felix recognized. It was Asher. Damn it! Would this never end? Felix stepped

    The sun was setting as Felix returned to Canraville. He had planned to meet Xena, but she had been called to an urgent meeting in Yartford at the last minute. Jack called just as he got home. Felix said, "Perfect timing. I just got back and brought some good food. Let's have a drink." Jack's voice was hushed. "Buddy, we thought you'd gone off the grid." Off the grid? Felix was puzzled. "Nancy called you a few times. Why didn't you pick up?" Jack asked.It was true that Nancy had called three times on Felix's way back. But how could he answer her call? The more they interacted, the more pain it would bring her. "Are you with Nancy right now?" Felix could tell Jack was probably calling from the bathroom. "Yeah, it's her birthday today. She wanted to invite you." Felix sighed. "Just tell her you couldn't reach me either. And ask Nessa to stop playing matchmaker. Nancy's a great girl, but I just can't." "I understand. Wrong timing, I guess," Jack relented.Just as he hung

    The moment the topic came up, Felix's gaze flickered, avoiding direct eye contact. No matter how you put it, even though Xena would also benefit from it, it still felt somewhat unfair. It felt that way, especially since they weren't in a relationship. If they were married or at least dating, it wouldn't be an issue at all."I'm exhausted. I need another two days to rest," he said.Billy scoffed. "I know your soul energy is depleted, but trust me. Your fatigue will disappear instantly once your souls merge. The feeling is beyond words. I'm sure you've heard from the Malevolent Phantom how irresistible Soul Binding is, even for those who've already experienced love and passion."Wait, what? Felix was speechless. It seemed that there was really no way out of it."Oh, one last thing. After you and Xena… you know, your soul energy will be completely absorbed and stored away. That means you won't have any left to wield a soul-bound weapon or use any soul attacks. Are you sure you still

    There was only one explanation—Felix really could heal soul damage."Of course, I healed him. Let me rest for a bit. Wake me up when the sun comes up."Felix was utterly exhausted. Even if an S-tier Malevolent Phantom appeared beside him, he couldn't be bothered to care. If Donna had truly wanted to kill him, she would have done it long ago. There was no reason for her to wait until now.As Donna watched Felix slip into a deep sleep almost instantly, her expression grew more complex.What kind of ridiculous joke was that? Even though Leonardo was a crossbreed, his soul had already inherited the traits of a Malevolent Phantom. While it wasn't exactly the same as a true Malevolent Phantom, the essence of his soul had changed.And yet, Felix had still managed to heal him. If word of this got out, it would shake the entire Malevolent Phantom world to its core.It was like finding out that some miracle doctor could cure any disease in the human world. People would go absolutely crazy.

    Leonardo's body suddenly started convulsing, and with foam spilling from his mouth, even a fool could tell something had gone wrong.Damage to the soul was entirely different from physical injuries. If one got a cut, even without treatment, their body would eventually heal on its own. However, the soul wasn't like that. Any damage was permanent and had widespread consequences. Even if just a fraction of an inch of the soul was harmed, the physical reaction could be extreme.Felix let out a long breath. "Finally got it out. It sounds easy, but doing it was incredibly difficult. Even with my soul energy, I nearly couldn't hold on."The level of precision required to make such an impossibly fine cut was beyond imagination. To do it without causing any collateral damage would require soul energy beyond comprehension.Of course, Leonardo's soul had been damaged. There was no avoiding it."At least he's alive. You've done all you could," Donna said.However, Felix just smiled. "That'

    At that moment, Felix turned to Norman. "Step outside and say the lines you've rehearsed. Then, I'll take your son with me. He'll be back by dawn."Norman was beyond relieved. If Leonardo could survive, nothing else mattered.He had long anticipated this day. Living on Earth, even if it wasn't intentional, he had killed more than one person. There was no way he'd be let off the hook.In the living room, Lina was in tears, bombarding him with questions, while Steve kept sighing heavily. No one could have imagined that a once-happy family would fall apart overnight."I'm taking Leonardo for treatment. I won't say it again."Seeing the scene unfold, Felix spoke up. With Norman's cooperation, things were going more smoothly. Since he had been assured that Leonardo would return safely, there was no reason for further resistance.The situation had to be handled strictly. There was no room for defiance.Just then, Xena arrived. She had actually been in Zuera since the day before but ha

    Norman looked into Felix's eyes and knew there was no room for negotiation. He lowered his head in silence.Seeing this, Felix dialed Donna's number."What's up?" she asked."I found a crossbreed.""A crossbreed? Oh, you mean a hybrid? What about it?"Felix had no choice but to ask Donna for help. No matter how he looked at it, he also wanted to protect Leonardo."This crossbreed is only three years old and seems to have inherited a soul-related trait. He just killed someone out of pure instinct."Before Felix could finish, Donna had already guessed the situation. She let out a chuckle, her tone carrying a hint of eerie amusement. "Let me guess, you want to save the kid?"Felix didn't bother denying it. "That's right. I want to know if there's a way."After a long pause, Donna's voice came through again, "There is! But I can only assist. Since he's just three years old and hasn't developed much yet, I can mark the part of his soul that drives his instincts. "You'll need to

    A trace of sweetness flickered in Norman's eyes, and he couldn't help but smile."Yeah, I never imagined it, either. Me, an A-tier Malevolent Phantom, actually falling in love with a human. I'm completely, hopelessly in love."Felix froze as he hadn't expected it to be true."You probably don't believe me. No other Malevolent Phantom would, either. But it's real. I truly love Lina. After experiencing what you humans call love, I was completely consumed by it. Maybe that's why, when we were together, our souls intertwined, and that's how Leonardo was born."Norman grew emotional as he spoke."Do you understand? When I realized that Leonardo had inherited the unique traits of a Malevolent Phantom's soul, I was overjoyed beyond words."But I regretted it instantly when I remembered where we were. Because it meant that if Norman was ever discovered, he would be in danger of being killed at any moment."And now, with your arrival today, I knew that moment had come. I just didn't expe

    The existence of crossbreeds was classified as top secret by headquarters. If word got out, even if the general public remained unaware, just the knowledge reaching certain members within headquarters would cause mass panic.Would you dare to question whether your partner might be a Malevolent Phantom? Would you risk wondering if your child inherited some of its traits and became a crossbreed? No one wanted to shoulder that responsibility.Take Johann and his team, for example. They had absolutely no knowledge of crossbreeds, and their resistance right now stemmed entirely from their own moral convictions."Sir!"Johann didn't dare stop Felix outright, but he raised his voice to make his stance clear. The others followed suit, not to mention Lina, who was still sobbing uncontrollably, and Steve, whose eyes were red with fury as he glared at Felix without a hint of fear."Mr. Zeller! If you're really going to take my grandson, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"Tears st

    "So what?" Lina asked. "Even if I lied, what does that person's death have to do with my son?"Felix suddenly roared, "Are you telling me that when you opened the door, your son never left your sight for even a second?""I—"Lina opened her mouth but suddenly found herself at a loss for words. That instinctive hesitation was the most telling of all."Get the car ready. Take her with us. We're going to Lina's house.""Yes, sir!"The convoy arrived at a luxurious mansion in Zuera. The moment Felix and his team rushed inside, they saw Steve sitting in the living room, holding a three-year-old boy in his arms."Mr. Zeller, why are all of you here?"Lina, restrained by Felix's men, screamed in a frenzy, "Dad! Save Leonardo! They're trying to take him away!"Then, she turned to Felix, shouting in fury, "You monsters! He's just three years old, and you suspect him of murder? I'll expose you! I'll take you to court!"By the time she finished, she was sobbing uncontrollably."Mr. Zel

    Even though Lina knew Felix held an unimaginably high status—so high that even Steve feared him—his continued questioning and the direction of his suspicions pushed her to the edge. The mere idea that her son might be involved sent her into a silent rage.She was a mother, and when it came to her child, she did not care who the hell the other person was."I'm just asking questions," Felix said flatly. "Just answer them. Don't make me start quoting laws and rights to get you to cooperate."His voice was so calm. For a moment, Lina wondered if she had overreacted, so she took a breath and continued.She explained, "He wasn't in the stall. It's way too small in there. I left the door cracked open so he could see me, and since I had the tether on, plus the nanny and driver waiting outside, I wasn't worried about him wandering off."Felix did not say anything right away. He stood there, clearly deep in thought.Silvercrest Restaurant might have been an upscale dining place, but it was
