Unbeknownst to Atlas, Hyrum had already broken out in a cold sweat. Nevertheless, he suppressed his panic and forced a smile. “Who’s this person? I can’t believe they said I’m a Demonic Cultivator. What a joke…”
“Oh, one of my brothers brought him over. From what I heard, that young man’s on the same team as Mr. Chevalier, but I didn’t bother asking for more details,” Atlas casually replied.
Hyrum instantly froze as his gaze darkened. “Does that young man go by the last name Chance?”
Atlas nodded. “Yes. I heard Mr. Chevalier addressing him as Mr. Chance…”
“Oh my! That’s Jared Chance. He’s the man I told you to help me capture, Mr. Jablonski!” Hyrum hastily answered.
“What? That’s the guy?” Atlas blurted out, a confused look on his face. “He’s just a Body Fusion Realm cultivator, though. Besides, his medical skills aren’t any good. Why would you have a grudge against him, Mr. Goeckner?”
I don’t get it… Mr. Goeckner is an advanced alchemist, for goodness’ sake. Why would he hold a grudge against someone as insignificant as Jared Chance?
“Please don’t ask any more questions, Mr. Jablonski. As long as you help me capture Jared, I promise to cure Ms. Jablonski’s illness,” Hyrum retorted.
Atlas gave a quick nod. “All right, then. I’ll lead my men over this instant. They’re staying right next door!”
Soon, Atlas left with a team of subordinates to Victor’s yard, leaving Hyrum to wait in anticipation. Hah! Once Jared is captured, I’ll leave with the punk! Who cares about the poison in Effie’s body?
Upon seeing Atlas marching into his yard with a group of men, Victor became bewildered. “Atlas, why have you suddenly come here?”
This is odd… Even though we live side by side, Atlas seldom comes here!
“Victor, is the young alchemist you brought to me yesterday called Jared Chance?”
Victor nodded. “Yes. He’s Jared Chance. I heard him introduce himself yesterday.”
“Good. I’m here to capture him. Where’s he staying?”
“He’s in the innermost room on the east wing.” Victor replied.
