Lucas turned and bolted, while Nolan unsheathed his blade and chased after him..

Just as Nolan was about to close the distance, a pack of vicious dogs suddenly lunged at him.

In an instant, his sword flashed, and several dog heads hit the ground

By the time Nolan finished dealing with the dogs and looked up again, Lucas had already vanished.

Of the three men left behind, two were dead, and the last one lay on the ground, clutching his stomach, dying

After the Black Flag soldiers had taken care of the remaining dogs, Ross stepped forward with a grim expression, grabbed the sole surviving foreigner, and yanked off the mask covering her face.

“Prince Nolan, it’s a woman, he reported.

Though her face got badly disfigured, certain features still made her gender identifiable upon closer inspection.

Nolan’s expression turned even colder, his voice sharp and merciless. Take her back. Interrogate her thoroughly.” “Got it!” Ross replied.

One escapee didn’t matter to Nolan. After all, he had eliminated most of the spies in Hasen City, and Lucas couldn’t stir up much trouble even if he escaped,

Still, Nolan couldn’t help but wonder if the person who came to rescue Lucas today was the mole or Fletcher himself. Nolan‘ s eyes namowed as he said. “Let’s go. We’re heading to the Henderson family.”

Two days later.

The old door was slowly pushed open from the outside with a creak. Dust and cobwebs tumbled down, narrowly missing Eliza and the others.

Malaki, who had followed Eliza inside, felt his eyes sting with emotion as he looked at the once–familiar mansion. Fifteen years… It’s been fifteen long years. Finally, I’m back,” he said.

Never in his wildest dreams had Malaki imagined he’d set foot here again. This place, where he’d lived half his life, clung to his soul like an old scar that refused to fade.

The Padula family’s estate had been sealed off ever since the tragedy that occurred to the Padilla family before Eliza was born. She had never had the chance to visit it until now.

Perhaps it was the unexplainable bond she felt toward her grandparents‘ family she had never met, but as Eliza stepped inside, she felt no fear. Instead, she felt a strange sense of ease.

After all, this would soon become her home in Hasen City.

“Come on, Malaki. Show us around, Eliza said, glancing back at Malak, who was still standing there and crying. Then, she stepped inside.

“Right away, Eliza. I’ll show you everything, Malaki replied.

Quickly wiping away his tears of joy, Malaki broke into a radiant smile and hurried to take the lead, guiding Eliza further inside. “This is the main hall of the Padilla family, where your grandparents used to host guests. Over there is the rear hall your grandpa’s study, and your grandma’s garden…”

Malaki introduced each corner of the estate. Despite the passage of over a decade, his memories of the Padilla family remained vivid. It seemed he could go on forever whenever he mentioned them,

Eliza listened patiently, her mind painting vivid pictures of her grandparents‘ family. Through Malaki’s words, she could almost see them

Her kind hearted great–grandfather served as the tutor to the Crown Prince, while her jovial great–grandmother was a renowned doctor Her gentle grandfather was an Academician of the Imperial College, and her equally serene grandmother was the most talented lady in Hasen City.

She could picture her great–grandfather laughing with friends in the main hall, her great–grandmother carefully cultivating medicinal herbs, her grandfather poring over books in the study, and her grandmother playing the instrument with her daughter in the garden.

Through Malaki’s recollections, these scenes: Successfully unlocked! It constantly sketched out one warm scene

after another

However, just as they reached the foot of the library, a dark, dried bloodstain left uncleaned shattered the nostalgic
