Elara also began to notice something strange when the green-eyed ring was in Darrin's hand. “When the ring was in my father's hand, I didn't feel any effect!” she murmured. “How could that be?”The effect Elara referred to was in terms of taming the sacred fox within her. When the ring was in Alexander's hand, Elara still felt that the fox couldn't be tamed. It was different when the ring was in Darrin's hand.“When I saw the ring on Darrin's hand earlier, the fox's control over my body weakened, and I could manage my inner strength more easily.” Elara kept recalling what had happened to her earlier. Besides, she also felt that the fox seemed to recognize Darrin. “What is actually going on?”Elara kept thinking for a while but couldn't find a satisfactory answer. One thing was certain: Darrin had control over the fox. Therefore, if Elara wanted to have control over the fox and gain its full power, she had to seek the young man's help.“Maybe I don't need to think too much about it for

Meanwhile, in Tranquilshire province.In one of the cool and flat regions, surrounded by vast apple orchards, an old and magnificent castle, hundreds of years old, stood majestically. This castle was the residence of the Fontaine family, marking the glory and grandeur of this family for centuries. Their presence for several generations was one reason they became the strongest noble family in this province.One unique aspect of the Fontaine castle was that, despite its centuries-old age, the building not only appeared very sturdy but also unique. Dominated by walls painted in bright colors, the Fontaine castle combined ancient and modern elements in a harmonious and enchanting blend. The idea behind all this came from none other than the castle’s owner himself, Claus Fontaine.Claus was the current head of the Fontaine family. He was the sole heir and had no siblings or cousins. Given this situation, it could be said that the future of the Fontaine family heavily depended on him.As th

Claus explained a bit of information about a man named Alford that he had gleaned from his great-grandfather's diary. "Find this man or anyone associated with him. Whoever among you finds him first, I will grant one request, whatever it may be!"The lord's final sentence ignited great excitement among all the nobles present. However, as they heard Claus's next words, their excitement waned, replaced by a creeping fear that chilled their bodies."But, I don't have much time. I will give you a maximum of three days. Anyone who comes to me without providing any information, you will soon know the consequences.""Yes, Lord! We will mobilize all our resources and people to find the man you seek!" they exclaimed.Claus then raised his hand again. "Now you may go. Do not waste the time I have given you. Do your best!"They all rose from their seats and bowed their heads towards Claus.The lord then left the living room, seemingly heading back to the library to continue reading his great-gran

The girl, of course, ignored Kent's shouts. "Sorry, sir, I have to escort these guests," she said, reluctant to leave the elevator. She didn't want to stay on this floor, or this man would act even more brazenly towards her."Are you daring to defy me now?" Kent began to lose his patience. He approached the elevator, intending to forcibly pull the girl out.Ding!At the same moment, the other elevator door opened. Shortly after, a very old man in his eighties stepped out.Kent seemed to ignore the old man. For him, it didn't matter who came; they would also be chased away from this floor.However, when he saw the old man's face, Kent immediately stopped his intention to chase the receptionist. Instead, he quickly put on a friendly face. "Mr. Alnwick, it's an honor for me to have you hear my idea!"Kent quickly shook the old man's hand, who was none other than Tybalt. He also immediately invited the old man to sit in one of the chairs. Kent sat directly opposite the old man, face to fa

Meanwhile, elsewhere.A hole formed in the air near the ruins of the Hayes family's mansion. Soon after, a young man emerged from it, followed by a girl."I don't understand, why did you bring me here?" The young man, none other than Darrin, said to the girl, who was Elara. There was nothing at that place except the rubble of the mansion that had stood proudly just a few days ago."Don't you have a super sight technique?" said Elara, grabbing Darrin's hand. "I want you to help me find something.""Alright," Darrin nodded, understanding the girl's intention. "What should we find?""Help me find a necklace!""A necklace? What kind of necklace?" asked Darrin. He didn't ask why Elara was looking for it because he was sure it must be very valuable to her. However, Darrin needed to know what it looked like.Elara placed the tip of her index finger on her forehead. "I almost forgot what it looks like! It was a necklace given by my great-grandfather!""Great-grandfather? How did you meet him?
