Chapter 1161
In the end, Felix called Eunice again to postpone his dinner plans with Donna. Even though the person who died in the Webster family wasn't important, a few of Donna's friends from the murder mystery group had lost their lives for real. There was no way she wouldn't be devastated.The reason Felix stayed behind was a lingering suspicion. It was nothing concrete—just a hunch. But it was enough to make him want to stay in Notura City for a few more days.With nothing better to do, he decided to check out the location on the note he had been handed earlier. It led him to an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city."Are you sure you don't want me to bring a few more guys, Mr. Zeller?"The one speaking was Yadiel. Felix had called him over, too. Since they didn't know who was behind this, having Yadiel around could make things a lot easier."What are you afraid of with me around?" Felix asked.Yadiel looked embarrassed. He recalled his destroyed G-Wagon and quickly waved his ha

Seeing that Horace had finally calmed down, the middle-aged man standing nearby spoke up, "Mr. Sawyer, if you really can't let this go, there is a way to handle it."Horace shot him a dark look. "What way? My family has no ties with Yadiel. If things really escalate, he won't hold back. And if my father finds out that I got into a conflict with Yadiel over a woman, he'll kill me."Just from Yadiel's phone call, Horace could easily guess that Eunice had been putting on an act all along. Yadiel had business dealings with the Jamison family. That had to be the reason Felix escaped so easily."Damn it! He's just a food delivery guy. How dare he think he can land a woman like that?"He couldn't wrap his head around it. How was he any worse than Felix? The only explanation was that Eunice had some particular tastes that she had been hiding all this time."Mr. Sawyer, have you forgotten? Your father has Black Dog under his command, and he said you were allowed to use them once."Horace

When Felix returned with the coffee, he handed it over. In exchange, the person inside gave him a plastic bag. Curious, he peeked inside and found an autographed album."Lindsay Yarwood?"The name slipped out of his mouth as he looked at the woman on the signed album cover. She looked exactly like one of his high school classmates, who also shared the name Lindsay Yarwood.She had been quiet and reserved back in school, with hardly any friends. Most people barely knew anything about her. That would have been the end of it. However, on graduation day, someone pointed out something strange while looking at their class photos."Hey! Look at these two pictures. Doesn't Lindsay's face look exactly the same?"One was their graduation photo, and the other was a group picture from a school event back when they were sophomores. Upon closer inspection, they realized it was true. Everyone else had changed in some way. After all, three years had passed. However, Lindsay looked exactly the

"Thanks, but there's no way I'd sell something this valuable from an old classmate. I'm definitely keeping it," Felix said.Just as Lindsay was about to insist, Felix smiled and pulled out his phone. "Can we exchange contact info?"Without a second thought, Lindsay happily shared her number and even added him on WhatsApp. She had none of the aloofness one might expect from a celebrity."Lindsay, if you ever find yourself in trouble, something you can't handle on your own, try reaching out to me. Sometimes, things aren't always what they seem," Felix said.With that, he left. In a world filled with Malevolent Phantoms, running into an old classmate—especially one who was still so kind and genuine—was a rare and pleasant surprise. Whether or not she would actually contact him later wasn't something he needed to worry about.By the time he stepped out of the five-star hotel, it was already past 9:00 pm. He rode his electric scooter a short distance before turning into a dark alley.

Eunice was utterly terrified as she watched a burly man carry someone in and then roughly toss them onto the ground. It wasn't until then that she realized it was Felix.Horace grinned even wider. "That's right. If I remember correctly, his name is Felix Zeller, isn't it? Damn it! You'd rather mess around with some lowly delivery guy than give me a chance? You brought this on yourself!"With that, he gestured with his finger. "Wake him up!"Black Dog nudged Felix, and he came to."Are you awake now, Felix?"Felix looked at Horace, who was a complete stranger to him. However, what really caught him off guard was seeing Eunice there."My name is Horace Sawyer. Did you really think that getting Yadiel to warn me would be enough to keep you safe? "Watch closely. You're about to witness something unforgettable. In just a moment, your so-called goddess will be on her knees, completely at my mercy. This is the difference between you and me."Eunice's mind was racing. She knew Felix w

What was even stranger was the wooden figure in front of Horace Sawyer. A wooden… puppet? It had a cylinder-shaped head, square-shaped body, and round wooden limbs.Based on how Horace was still sitting on the ground with a horrified look, he was also confused about this. However, Felix sensed that this wooden figure had sprung out of Horace to block his attack! Felix felt like he was in a dream. He felt a terrifying energy coming from this wooden figure—somewhere along the levels of mastery of Transcendent Realm and Grandmaster Realm. What was this? Unless this wooden figure had combat power like that of Cordelia, Felix would not be a tough opponent."Is this a magical treasure?" he asked. This was his only explanation. Otherwise, how could it be in Horace's body and form to protect him?However, magical treasures were rare—how did Horace have such a thing?"Leave now, Eunice. Don't tell anyone about what happened here. Do you understand?" Felix ordered calmly.After placing

"How terrifying… Just a single trace of the soul's consciousness, and it's powerful enough to speak," Felix muttered with a sigh. The previous owner must have been incredibly powerful. After killing Horace, Felix destroyed the entire factory to avoid leaving any clues. Fortunately, Horace had picked a quiet place without any cameras, as he wanted to kill.It was in an alleyway beside the village, so there was less work to clean up. "Wait… Ashton?" Felix suddenly stopped, stunned. The name of the soul's consciousness mentioned seemed to finally register in his mind.As he thought about the terrifying strength, it was truly possible that it was Ashton. "Fuck, Ashton Willis… Isn't he one of the Eight Guardians under the Ancient Sage? Why did he attach so much importance to this small fry? Was he one of his direct descendants?"That had to be the only explanation! There was no other reason otherwise… Now that he had killed Horace, he could only hope that Ashton would find the mu

In Felix's opinion, even if Ashton found out about Eunice, he would ignore her once he discovered her memories were erased. "Mr. Zeller, Donna will be here soon," Eunice said. Felix nodded and said nothing in return. After tonight, he would leave Notura City, and he wouldn't have any relations with this woman anymore. After all, Horace's death had a lot to do with him.However, Felix didn't like owing anything. He took out a wooden box and handed it to her. "Keep this."Confused, Eunice opened the box and found it was the same pill her grandfather had taken on the plane. She stood up in shock. "Mr. Zeller! This is too valuable—I can't take this."Her grandfather was now completely healthy—even his doctor called to say that it was a miracle and that he couldn't understand it. How could she not know how precious this pill was?To put it frankly, if it was auctioned, it could be sold for billions! What was money for the rich? No amount of money could be worth a life-saving pill!

Felixf felt his interest piqued. Could his suspicions be true? "Tell me about it.""Donna has this subconscious habit every time she touches the hot water. She's had this habit since she was a child and no one can change this."A subconscious habit? It wasn't something anyone could change, nothing that anyone could control. Even if she did it, she wouldn't notice. After all, it was a subconscious habit."Every time she reached for the hot water, even if it was just warm, she would touch her earlobe lightly before picking up the cup to drink. When I asked her about it, she told me she didn't know why," Eunice said."We ate for half an hour and she drank the warm water four times without touching her earlobe once." To be honest, if Felix had not advised her to observe Donna carefully, Eunice would have overlooked this slight detail."Alright, thank you. You can head back now." Despite being full of doubts, Eunice didn't dare to ask any more questions. Since Felix said so, when s

Just as Felix reached for the door, Donna's voice sounded behind him. "Actually, your theory was right. You're right. But you still know too little about the Malevolent Phantoms."Felix turned around quickly in disbelief. There, he saw Donna sitting with her legs crossed. At that moment, she no longer looked upset. Instead, with her crossed legs, there was an air of arrogance around her.It was as if she had turned into a completely different person."What? What do you mean?" Felix muttered. Donna reached out to grab a toothpick before stabbing into her previously burnt wrist. As soon as she did, blood dripped from the wound. However, as she pulled out the toothpick, the wound miraculously healed."Did you see that? I can control the recovery of my body." Donna was actually a Malevolent Phantom! Despite his theory being confirmed, Felix wasn't happy—instead, he was almost frightened. "You're not an A-tier Malevolent Phantom," he stated. Donna nodded. "That's right, how ca
