Magnus knelt down beside Denise and comforted her softly, "Don't be too sad. Mr. and Mrs. Laney will surely be fine. Let's keep looking. You can't let yourself be overwhelmed with sadness, or you won't have the strength to continue searching for them."
Hearing his words, Denise slowly calmed down. "Right, I need to stay calm. I have to stay calm."
"That's right." Magnus nodded. "Let's go; we'll keep looking."
"Okay," Denise replied.
However, Magnus only managed to take a few steps forward before his vision darkened suddenly, and he collapsed forward.
Denise reacted quickly, preventing him from falling directly onto the ground by grabbing his arm.
"Magnus," Denise called out to him.
Magnus answered groggily, "Yeah?"
"You almost fell just now." Denise's eyes were filled with anxiety and worry.
Magnus rubbed his head. "Huh? I didn't notice. Maybe I didn't get enough rest. Come on, let's keep looking for them."
Seeing him in such a daze, Denise dared not let him continue the search.
"Let's head back and take a break for now. You haven't had much rest in the past few days," Denise urged.
Magnus had been spending his days chatting with Brycen and Calliope and working at night.
"I'm fine—I don't need a break." Magnus was still trying to be tough, but his eyelids were already drooping.
Denise stopped wasting her breath to persuade him. "No, you have to come back with me now and rest."
She then proceeded to drag Magnus home.
After arriving home, Denise said to Magnus, "Get some rest now. I'll report my parents' disappearance to the police. Come find me when you're well-rested, okay?"
Magnus also felt that he was running on empty, so he didn't argue further, nodding. "Okay, I got it."
"Good," Denise said.


He then thought for a moment and added, "Denise, wait for me. I'll find a way to search for your parents. Don't worry."
Denise didn't hold out much hope when she heard his promise, but she still nodded.
Magnus got up and went to the bedroom, where he took out his phone and called Cecilia.
Cecilia was still in Drocver then. Seeing Magnus' call, she hesitated for a moment before answering. "Hello. What's going on?"
"Cecilia, can you do me a favor?" Magnus asked.
Cecilia frowned, thinking that he wanted money. "What favor?"

Cecilia was puzzled. "Who are you looking for?"
"My friend's parents," Magnus answered.
