Throughout the journey, Arion couldn’t stop thinking about the worst possible outcome. He felt tense and anxious—if anything happened to Olafia, the regret would haunt him for the rest of his life.Carefully, Arion carried Olafia back home. From a distance, he could see Nadine waiting by the door, and beside her stood Sandra from the special police unit. Their presence meant that the situation inside the house was now safely under control.Arion gave Nadine a calm nod before continuing to carry Olafia into their room. Gently, he laid her down on the bed, and after a moment’s thought, he cast the demon-sealing spell once more to ensure Olafia’s condition was stable.Less than a second after the spell took effect, Olafia slowly opened her eyes. Seeing Arion beside her, she frowned slightly and said, “Arion, you’re back? I just felt a bit unwell and a little dizzy.”The heavy weight on Arion’s heart finally eased. It turned out that the killer hadn’t had the chance to do anything to her—

“Stay behind me — the formation here has changed. Give me your hand,” said Arion, extending his palm toward her.“What are you trying to do?” Sandra asked, puzzled, staring at Arion suspiciously.“This isn’t something to take lightly!” Arion sounded frustrated, glancing at Sandra’s glasses, which seemed completely useless in this situation. “You’d better not go too deep in — unless you want to get dizzy.”“Are you saying I’ll get a headache?” Sandra scoffed, unwilling to believe him. Her health had always been fine; she had never once suffered a headache.“If you don’t believe me, suit yourself. But don’t stray too far from me,” Arion warned firmly. If not for his inner vision ability, even he wouldn’t have dared to enter this mysterious village.He noticed that the path before them was narrow and winding. The wind blowing through the trail howled like the roar of cattle. Over the years, that wind had formed a natural current of positive and negative energy — and the villagers, throug

Arion glanced around before stepping into the cage. Using his inner sight, he could see that the five people inside were severely injured, though all of their wounds were external.Without hesitation, Arion drew out his golden needles and used the “Single Line Golden Needle” technique to swiftly heal their wounds. In mere moments, the injuries began to close, and the five men stared at him in disbelief. Just moments ago, they had accepted that they were beyond saving — that death was inevitable.“Acupuncture really is miraculous,” Arion said proudly, rubbing his nose with a faint smile. “Now, go help Sandra. She needs you more than I do.”As several officers rushed over to stand in front of Sandra, she could hardly believe what she was seeing. But there was no time to ponder the miracle — with the officers’ help, the factory workers were quickly subdued.Meanwhile, Sandra hurriedly examined the surrounding materials and soon discovered something even more shocking.It turned out that

Arion could only stay silent, slightly confused by the situation that had just unfolded."Olafia, am I bothering you?" he asked, gently pulling her into the room.Olafia smiled faintly, her fingers brushing against his hand. "Arion, can you tell me… was your coming home late tonight somehow related to me fainting?""Olafia, you're overthinking it. I just—"Olafia cut him off softly but firmly. "Arion, even if I don’t know what really happened, I’m aware of one thing. I was unconscious for quite a while, and I’m certain you were the one who saved me, weren’t you?"Arion knew too well—though Olafia appeared calm, she wasn’t someone easily fooled. But this matter was far too dangerous. He didn’t want her to be involved in any way."Arion, I know Nadine’s identity isn’t simple. Since she came, the police have been showing up here frequently. So when I decided to let you all stay in my home, I made peace with whatever comes with it. Whatever happens, don’t hide it from me. I’m not afraid o

Arion didn’t understand why Nadine had agreed so easily, but he quickly unbuckled his seatbelt and said, “Let’s go. This place is pretty good—I’ve been here before. If we’re late, there might not be any seats left.”The two got out of the car and entered a classy grilled skewer restaurant. Inside, a small stage hosted a young female singer performing soft, soothing songs.Arion chose a seat by the window and motioned for Nadine to sit beside him. “So, what do you think? Do you want to eat here?” he asked with a wide smile.Nadine smiled back. “Like I said, I’ll follow your plan today. It’s a slightly special day for me.”Before long, a waiter brought them menus, and Arion confidently ordered a variety of dishes along with some beer for Nadine. His smile widened even more when he saw how cheerful she looked.The food and drinks were served quickly. As Arion opened his bottle of beer, Nadine poured herself a tall glass and downed it in a single gulp!Arion froze, tongue-tied, before set
