Robin took the tea and asked, “Have a seat. How have you been feeling lately?”
Daphne settled into a chair before Robin, a bittersweet expression crossing her stunning features.
“Master, ever since you helped me break the Soul–Eating Charm the first time, my body often feels like i being gnawed at by countless ants. Plus, I keep waking up from nightmares at night.”
Robin nodded. “That’s a normal reaction. Today, I’ll perform another acupuncture session, and you shou feel much better afterward.
“After three or four more sessions like this, we should be able to completely clear the Soul–Eating Charm from your body.
“When that happens, the feeling of being devoured by a million ants will vanish.”
Daphne expressed her gratitude, “Thank you, Master!”
“Get up. let’s begin!” Robin placed a hand on the table, causing the silver needles to float mid–air.
With a wave of his hand, 18 silver needles pierced Daphne’s head and chest in sequence.
At that moment, intense fighting erupted from outside the door.
Daphne’s eyes flew open in panic as she looked at Robin.
“Focus your mind. Don’t get distracted!” Robin stood up slowly, a relaxed smile on his face. “It’s finally here!”
With a loud crash, Rita and Rowan burst through the door, crashing to the ground before Robin.
“Mr. Ramsey, we’re so sorry; we couldn’t hold them off Rowan said, embarrassed as he glanced fearfully outside.
“Stupid! What did you do to Cynthia?” a massive man, built like a tank, charged toward Rita and Rowan.

The hulking man staggered back a few steps, nearly falling if not for the two men accompanying him, who caught him just in time.
“Stupid!” the man exclaimed, regaining his balance as he drew a samurai sword beneath his robe, pointing it at Robin.
The blade radiated a bone–chilling aura in an instant, releasing a wave of murderous intent that rained down like a storm.
Rita and Rowan stared in shock at the man’s fierce presence, shouting. “Mr. Ramsey, watch out!”

The man, Silvester Wade, was the third direct disciple of Juan Denver, the master of the Northern Star Sword School.
Silvester halted his sword mid–air, coldly asking, “Cynthia, what are you doing? Are you really planning betray the Rivers family and your master?”
Daphne’s gaze hardened, flames of hatred igniting in her eyes.
“The Rivers family, Northern Star Sword School–ha! You must know what they’ve done to me!
“They treat me as a vessel for their cursed spirits and expect my loyalty in return? If you were in my sh Silvester, would you still cling to the so–called path of loyalty?”
“My master saved me! Cynthia, we will forever be Master’s servant, following master through life and death!
“My mother and I are discarded pawns for the Rivers family and Northern Star Sword School!
“Just go. I will be at odds with the Rivers family from now on!”
Silvester’s mouth twitched slightly and replied coldly, “I don’t know what you’re talking about, but you must come back with me. Lord Gulliver is furious!”
“Bryon Gulliver?” Daphne furrowed her brows. “The spirit of the cursed shrine?”
“Impudent!” Silvester shouted in rage. “Lord Bryon Gulliver is a hero of the Sakurania! How dare you defile his honor!”
“Ha! A hero of the Sakurania, just a bunch of evil spirits!” Robin scoffed, waving his hand, causing Daphne silver needles to float back into the air.
“Stupid!” Silvester roared again, slashing down toward Robin’s head with his sword.
Daphne, struggling to get up to block Silvester’s strike, found her weakened body unable to stand.
Robin chuckled lightly, sweeping his arm. “Go!”
Eighteen silver needles shot like lightning, targeting Silvester and the two assassins trailing behind him.” The three of them froze in place, their bodies twitching uncontrollably.
“Stupid! You coward! How could you resort to such despicable methods.” Silvester glared at Robin, shouting in a rage.
