“Let the knights and the nobles work on catching the criminal,” Dylan replied to his granddaughter’s question.Minerva took some of the algae pellets down into the stream, which the fish loved to eat. “He’s powerful, so I think it’s better if you go and handle him personally, Grandpa.”Dylan took his time to reply. “Is there anything you wanted to tell this Grandpa?”“Mm? Regarding what?”“Anything that you want to confess?”Minerva smiled. “I didn’t do anything wrong recently, though. Did anyone complain to you regarding me?”Dylan paused for a little bit. “Look at the garden around us. We don’t water these trees and plants every day, but the big trees still take water from their roots that go deep underground, and the small plants will do their best to survive from dew that comes every morning. Even the leaves they shed will become a manure for them to survive and thrive.“Nature created by God really has everything taken care of. Our predecessors also wanted the same for Syslon. Wh

Vincent finally reached the Bright Moon village. His royal horse cart was recognized by the officials, and they made way for the cart.Vincent saw that the locals were being told to leave the village temporarily, but a few people were not being cooperative. And force was used on these people.One family was also being forcibly moved.“Mom, I can’t abandon Zig,” the nine-year-old daughter said out loud. “I can’t leave him.”“Who’s Zig?” one of the officials asked. “Your brother?”“No, it’s nothing,” the mother shut her daughter’s mouth and was taking her away.The little girl removed her mother’s hand off her mouth and said, “Zig is my cat. I can’t abandon my cat.”“Your cat?” the officials nearby were all alerted. A higher-up ordered the family to be captured, and also told other officials to search the house for the cat.It didn’t take long for the officials to search the house and find the cat, which turned out to be a kitten that was about six months old.“Don’t you know that it’s

Vincent sat outside his royal cart and patiently waited while the knights and officials kept attacking the barrier.So far, the knights only managed to crack one layer of the barrier at best, and they had no idea how many layers this barrier had. They were trying to go through an underground route, but that wasn’t working, either.“Is he using some kind of system to create a barrier like this? Otherwise, it doesn’t make sense that he’s able to create a barrier this strong!”“It’s recovering on its own no matter how much we crack it, just like the earth’s dome. He’s gotta be using some special system for it.”Vincent looked at Oscar who was also standing in the distance but not helping. He raised his hand, and Oscar saw that and walked over.“Why does this barrier feel similar to the one that’s put at the border of our city?” Vincent asked.“Well…” Oscar scratched his chin. “It does feel similar. Maybe, he stole a system that can create a similar barrier. Maybe he's got a mimicking sys

As Regina fell from the sky, Vincent rushed to her and caught her. A normal person wouldn’t have been able to do such a thing as the weight would have crushed them to death as well.Regina was still alive, but she looked to be in trouble, with blood leaking from her body. Her skin had cracks all over. It seems a lot of energy had entered her body, and it proved too much for her to contain.Regina was not weak by any means, but the opponent was just that strong.Vincent’s blood boiled like never before. “Mom, I assure you, I will kill him, and put his head at your feet!”“Don’t make promises like that when you can’t fulfill them,” Ulmer’s voice echoed in that neighborhood. Nobody could tell where he was speaking from. It was as though the voice was generating out of thin air. They couldn’t figure out the source of it. “You come to my house and attack me, so don’t expect that I won’t fight back. I just gave a warning now. If you keep provoking me, it’s not hard for me to kill all the kn

Minerva was in her villa. Michael was still keeping an eye on her room.“As long as this bastard is watching, it’s hard to leave,” Minerva said.“Do you want me to keep him busy?” Nirvan, who was Dracarius’ main knight, said. Dracarius was the one who left him with Minerva so he could be of use to her after her personal knight died.Just then, she received a letter from the maid. It was a message from Dracarius.“The forces are withdrawing from the Bright Moon village?” Minerva was shocked. “Why? Were they not able to break through the barrier or whatever was stopping them? What kind of pathetic excuse are they going to give?”“Even your father and aunt have gone there, so I’m sure the situation there is not as easy as we might think,” Nirvan opined.“Tsk,” Minerva annoyedly bit her lip. (I never expected that bastard would become a thorn in my foot and hinder me from reaching my goals!) “If they are coming back, then I want to secretly meet Dracarius and a few other important nobles.
