"Oh, please, do whatever you can!" the Captain urged, his voice tinged with desperation as he implored Aarav to intervene and help the old man.

The Captain, anxious about any potential blame for the old man's fate staining his career, observed nervously.

Meanwhile, Aarav made sure his sister was settled comfortably before turning his attention to the old man.

He carefully checked his pulse using Divine Energy and looked into the old man's eyes for a bit.

Then, Aarav placed his hand over the old man's heart and turned to the Captain, his expression grave.

"He's been poisoned, Captain," Aarav declared, his words sending a ripple of shock through the passengers.

Some leaned in with heightened interest, sensing that there was more to the situation than met the eye.

"Poisoned? How could I have missed someone poisoning him when I've been sitting next to him this whole time?" The young lady looked at Aarav skeptically, doubting the validity of his claim.

However, Aarav's words reignited the tension in the air."What... what do you mean, Dr. Veridian? Is the culprit here?" the Captain inquired, his vigilance sharpened by the seriousness in Aarav's tone, despite the hint of playfulness."Yes, I can smell the same odor among them as that poison," Aarav asserted, pointing towards the passengers in the cabin."What's his problem?" some people grumbled irritably as they felt the weight of suspicion fall on them for the attempted murder of the old man."No way, is the murderer among us?" a few older ladies gasped in panic at the thought of a killer being seated among them.The accused passenger began to make a fuss, causing a stir among the passengers. Observing this, the Captain furrowed his brow in contemplation before turning to Aarav for guidance."Dr. Veridi

Aarav jabbed casually, a mischievous glint in his eyes."No, how would I know his name? I was at a different hotel!" Manwar Sen replied, his tone growing sharper with each word."But I never said the organizer was a man," Aarav pointed out, a smirk forming on his lips as he watched Manwar's expression fall."You're just talking nonsense now!" Manwar Sen's voice rose in frustration, his hands balling into fists."Hahaha! If I'm talking nonsense, why are you getting so worked up?" Aarav laughed, retorting with a smirk."Aarav turned to the captain, signaling that he was done asking questions and it was time to arrest him. "Captain, do I still need to ask more?

You're in the meeting hall," Master Malik's sharp reprimand cut through the air, expressing his displeasure at Mordan's foul language."Humph...!" Mordan grunted in response, his expression defiant.This young man was none other than Master Malik's son, a talented individual in his own right, but overshadowed by Astrid's selection as the Heir of the Starcrest Family. His bitterness towards Astrid was evident whenever her name was mentioned."Leaving her aside, have all of you completed the preparations as instructed by the Family Head?"

Emilia asked in a serious tone, hearing that Aria was familiar with the attackers."Yes... these are the same people who attacked Elandor's domain a while back. And I am pretty sure you can guess whose forces these are," Aria said with a contemplative look before she gave a glance at Emilia, who seemed to understand what Aria was trying to point out."I know... looks like we can’t overlook it any longer. Lady Aria, may I request you to get reinforcements, as I am not sure about the extent of the destruction these forces can cause in our land?"

The High Prophet spat blood but slowly made his way back into the temple. Kneeling once again, he showed no anger or frustration at being injured—only trembling fear in the face of the figure’s fury on the throne.Sylas’s eyes, glowing with an unnatural light, cut through the darkness as he sat motionless on the throne, his presence suffocating. The High Prophet of Pestilence didn’t dare lift his head. The air around them was thick with the stench of rot and corruption, heavy with a crushing pressure.“Elandor’s Heir... and the Heir of Astraia,” Sylas muttered, his voice filled with disdain. “How dare she interfere in my plans?”His words echoed, each one pressing down harder on the High Prophet. Silence followed, broken only by the distant howling wind outside the temple. The elder remai

    ............“Thank you,” Aria replied, her movements graceful as she took a seat across from him. Between them stood a small circular table, with a basket of snacks and fruit placed in the center, adding a touch of warmth to the room’s otherwise solemn atmosphere."Mr. Aarav, what are your plans regarding the cultists? I’m certain they won’t stop invading this continent and causing chaos," Aria asked, sitting back in a relaxed position, her eyes steady on him.Aarav sighed, his tone dim and unconfident. "What can I do alone? Even with the Crystal Healing Organization backing me, I’m not confident in facing those lunatic cultists." He spoke with a heaviness, aware of the overwhelming power he had witnessed in their last battle.He knew his own limitations. The devastation left by the cultists was a harsh reminder. Even Pope Aurelius, with all his influence, wouldn’t be enough to turn the tide. Aarav understood that unless he reached the fourth stage, the *Virtuoso of Vitality*, he wo

Heir to the Goddess of Stars, Astraia. It's a pleasure to meet you, Lord Heir..." Aria smiled, her face radiant like a flower blooming under the soft glow of moonlight. The sight made Aarav's heart race uncontrollably."Aarav... it's just Aarav, Miss Aria. Please, don't be so formal; it makes me feel uncomfortable." He interrupted her before she could speak too respectfully again, gently requesting that she call him by his name instead.Aarav didn’t want to come off like some spoiled young master, or as if they were stuck in some ancient civilization that hadn’t learned how to speak casually about simple things."Oh... alright, Mr. Aarav." Aria seemed a little surprised but then covered her mouth and chuckled. "Fufu...You don’t seem to like the ancient etiquette, do you?"Her soft laughter filled the air, the warm

The others followed, channeling the same malevolent force, preparing for a combined attack.Aarav could feel the shift—their power was immense. He flinched, sensing the ominous energy closing in around him."You think that’ll be enough to get rid of me?" Aarav’s voice cut through the tension. "You’ve forgotten who you're dealing with."As the dark energy swirled and gathered, Aarav took a deep breath and raised his weapon high. The blade gleamed with a blinding light, and the ground trembled under his feet as his divine power flared to life."Let me show you what true divine power looks like," Aarav declared, his voice steady. With one decisive motion, he shattered the one-use divine tool he carried, instantly replenishing the lost energy within him.And then, with explosive force, he unleashed it."Craaack... B

Aarav took another relentless hit, sliding back a few steps before losing his balance and dropping to one knee, blood dripping from his mouth."Hahaha... Elandor's Heir, already broken? I was hoping to play with you some more!" The bald cultist cackled, his words dripping with contempt.Aarav wiped the blood from his lips, smirking. "Feeling smug, huh? It’s just a scratch, nothing worth mentioning." He rose to his feet, his body glowing as the injury healed instantly, as though it never existed.The cultist's eyes widened, then his expression twisted with anger. "Damn it! I forgot Elandor is the God of Healing and Medicine!" Realizing his mistake, fury replaced his shock, and he lunged at Aarav in a blind rage, furious at being humiliated.Aarav's smile turned cold. "Heh, let me show you what else I can do," he muttered under his breath."Swishhh... Whoosh...!!"The cultist attacked wildly, but A
