Chapter 527 – He Is An A-rank Fighter
***** “You’ve… you’ve most likely invited a wolf into our flock of sheep.” Cassandra’s words struck like thunder, stunning the trio into a state of disbelief. They exchanged glances, the severity in her tone sinking in. This wasn’t an exaggeration. It wasn’t dramatic. Lyria was truly frightened. They turned toward Sage Myron, who stood silent, his jaw clenched tightly. “Husband,” Ellen asked, his voice low and wary, “is there something you're not telling us?” Sage Myron swallowed hard, the weight of truth heavy on his shoulders. His expression sagged, the wisdom and calm that usually characterized him replaced by something far more fragile—dread. “It was Nightforce Shadow’s mercenaries who ambushed us last night,” he confessed. For a second, no one moved. Cassandra, Malcolm, and Ellen stared at Sage Myron in stunned silence, their minds sluggish to process what they’d just heard. Then finally, as if struck by a lightning bolt, their eyes flew
Chapter 526 – You’ve Most Likely Invited A Wolf Into Our Flock Of Sheep
***** Normally, Cassandra wasn’t afraid of her father, because unlike most patriarchs who ruled their family like tyrants once they ascended to power, Sage Myron had always maintained a gentle, approachable demeanor—especially with his family. But when anger consumed him, he became unrecognizable. Cassandra, realizing she had crossed a line, could only pout in silence. Malcolm, having witnessed his sister's chastisement, wisely chose to remain quiet. He had no desire to become the next target of their father’s wrath. Only Ellen mustered the nerve to challenge her husband. She inhaled sharply, her eyes filled with dismay as she looked him in the eye. “So… are you saying that because he isn’t my biological son, I have no right to seek treatment for him?” Her voice trembled, not with fear, but with a deep, aching sadness and reproach. Sage Myron blinked, stunned. That wasn’t his intention, but he di
Chapter 525 – Sage Myron’s Danger Instinct
*****Back in the room, while Mordek remained frozen in disbelief, staring at Xavier, Bloodfang Viper before him, his posture relaxed, his eyes seemingly bored and casual.Sage Myron watched him closely, trying to suppress the discomfort tightening in his chest.Meanwhile, Claudia’s voice sliced through the thick silence.“You may return to your station,” she told the guard with a radiant smile, dismissing him like a servant.She then turned to her father, her face alight with pride, as though she had just accomplished some great deed worthy of accolades.“Look, Father. That’s the physician we personally brought in to examine my brother’s condition. He’s reputed to be among the best in the nation.”She gestured grandly toward Bloodfang Viper, her smile deepening.Her tone practically dripped with self-satisfaction.But Sage Myron’s eyes narrowed.Something was wrong… terribly wrong.His instincts were screaming at him like a wolf sensing danger. To the untrained eye, Bloo
Chapter 524 – Mordek’s Disbelief
*****Unbeknownst to Xavier, it wasn’t just Vidor, his subordinates, or the vindictive Tush couple who had been relentlessly hunting for him since the prior night.No.Shrouded beneath shadows and cloaked in secrecy, another hunter had stalked the city.Mordek... a team leader of the Nightshadow force mercenary unit that had ambushed Sage Myron and his granddaughter, had also combed every inch of Riverton with the Nightshadow’s men.Driven by desperation, vengeance, and terror, they had scoured alleys, avenues, and establishments, brandishing a sketched portrait of Xavier like a holy relic. Yet despite their exhaustive search, it was as though Xavier had vanished into thin air—erased from existence itself.Mordek had teetered on the edge of madness.And how could he not?The image of his comrades... his brothers-in-arms slain in a heartbeat, their heads separated from their bodies by a single, effortless arc of a blade by Bloodfang Vidor… all because Xavier had made them fail
Chapter 523 – A Coincidence or Conspiracy?
*****[2nd Bonus Chapter]….A chilling silence gripped the room like an invisible vice upon hearing all of Claudia’s words, wrapping itself around every heart, pressing down with the weight of suspicion and betrayal.No one spoke.Not even a single breath could stir the suffocating tension, until—“But why would she do something like that?” Malcolm finally asked, his brows furrowed in deep confusion. “Wasn’t the Everdusk Bloom meant to save her father? To awaken him from his endless coma?”His question echoed through the room, as though each syllable were another nail hammered into Lyria’s chest.Claudia, however, was already prepared. Her lips curved into a venomous smile, and she answered with cruel satisfaction, “Because she doesn’t want her father to wake up.”Boom.The words exploded through the room like a thunderclap.Malcolm’s and their mother Ellen’s mouths dropped open in unison, horror blooming across their faces.As for Lyria, she stood rooted in place, her ey
Chapter 522 – A Coincidence or Conspiracy?
*****[ 1st Bonus Chapter ]….Watching Sage Myron closely and seeing that he was already convinced, Claudia, Malcolm, and their mother exchanged glances, and a quiet breath of satisfaction passed among them.“Father,” Claudia said softly, her tone honeyed yet insidious, “you see it now, don’t you? This man… the one you thought had saved you is the same venomous snake who orchestrated the entire charade.”Her voice slithered into Sage Myron’s ears like poison, making the old man’s eyes ignite with a blaze of unfiltered wrath.With this, Sage Myron turned toward Xavier, ready to unleash it—until a soft, trembling voice pierced the moment.“Grand... grandfather,” Lyria whispered, barely audible.Immediately, all three… Claudia, Malcolm, and their mother snapped their heads toward her, their gazes sharp and accusing. Sage Myron, however, kept his eyes locked forward, ignoring her completely.Panic tightened Lyria’s throat. She knew her grandfather too well.The flicker in his e
