After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 350

Chapter 350: Chapter 350: The Origin of the Inheritance

The twelve branches of The Ziegler of Silthos were also recorded in that investigative report from Mordecai Quinn.

In a few swift moves, Wayne Warner had Zachary Ziegler bound hand and foot.

And tossed him into the SUV.

"Let me go! Whatever you want, my grandfather will give you."

Once he found himself in the car, Zachary Ziegler was surprisingly less worried.

’These two must not be killing me because they want to use me for their own gain.’

’They’ve probably kidnapped me to extort a shipment of supplies.’

Nina Jacobs said little, instead finding a hidden, abandoned house in a nearby village.

"Who is Veronica Ziegler to you?" Nina Jacobs asked after throwing Zachary Ziegler inside.

It was only then that Zachary Ziegler started to feel a flicker of fear.

’What did they bring me here for?’

’In the middle of nowhere like this, no one would ever find me if I died here.’

But more than that, he was shocked. ’How does this woman know everything?!’

"Veronica is my cousin. You know her, right? Okay, look, we can talk this out. Just promise you won’t kill me..."

Zachary Ziegler was cut off.

"I don’t know her, but I know she’s in Mornfell looking for the inheritor.

If you tell me what this inheritance you’re looking for is, I can find a way to let you go,"

Nina Jacobs said.

"The inheritance?

The inheritance is... it’s actually a book. Oh, no, it’s a sword, one that can kill without a trace..."

Cold sweat trickled down Zachary Ziegler’s face.

’How could I say something like that? If anyone found out I’d leaked information about the inheritance, the Mystic Sect would hunt me to the ends of the earth.’

"Oh? Is that so?"

Nina Jacobs could tell from his expression alone that he wasn’t telling the truth.

’Looks like I’ll have to resort to that.’

Nina Jacobs felt a pang of regret. She should have asked Sherry Renner for more Truth-telling Talismans.

Now she only had one Truth-telling Talisman left, and she hoped she wouldn’t need to use it again anytime soon.

At a nod from Nina Jacobs, Wayne Warner stomped down and broke Zachary Ziegler’s leg.

Then came the exact same routine.

Zachary Ziegler’s eyes widened. "Why do you have something like this? Is it the Mystic Sect..."

Before he could finish, the Truth-telling Talisman’s effects began to take hold.

Looking at Zachary Ziegler, who was now drooling with a vacant expression, Nina Jacobs asked:

"The person who awakens a Superpower in Mornfell is the one who possesses the inheritance. Is this prophecy true?"

"...It’s true."

Zachary Ziegler took a moment to react before answering.

"What is the inheritance?"

Based on her knowledge from a past life, Nina Jacobs already had a faint suspicion.

But she still needed to confirm whether that suspicion was correct.

She rather hoped her suspicion was wrong.

Zachary Ziegler shook his head. "The inheritance isn’t a thing. It’s most likely a set of all-powerful Magic,

for example, an omnipotent Universal Element."

’It’s the Universal Element!’

Nina Jacobs closed her eyes.

’Just as I feared.’

The inheritance the Mystic Sect was searching for was the "Universal Element" known only to a few people in her previous life.

And the "Universal Element" was very likely her system.

’Looks like I’ll have to be extremely careful around the Ancient Martial Clans from now on.’

"Who discovered the inheritance in the first place?"

Nina Jacobs asked, confused.

"It was deduced by the Ziegler Family’s founding ancestor using the Ziegler Family Inference Map.

The founder’s deductions have never been wrong."

Zachary Ziegler answered, his eyes staring blankly into space.

’So it’s also a Divination Secret Technique?’

And this prophecy was made hundreds of years in advance.

It had also kept the Mystic Sect searching for hundreds of years.

"Do you know someone named Liam Grant?"

"...Liam Grant?"
