After Dakota and the nine elite Warriors left, someone who had been watching from a distance approached the palanquin.From her slender figure and smooth features, the figure appeared to be a girl.She was wearing a long white silk robe with a head covering and a veil of the same color that covered half of her face.Even looking at the uncovered part of her face, anyone could judge that this girl possessed exceptional beauty.At first, the two elite Warriors guarding the palanquin ignored her. However, when the girl was only ten meters away from the palanquin, they stopped her."Hey, stop! What are you doing here? Go away!" said one of the Warriors."I just want to check on Brian!" she replied, halting her steps. Still, she didn't move from where she stood."Didn't you hear us? Go away! You can meet Mr. Rogers some other time!""I heard he's hurt. I can help him!" the girl pleaded.The two Warriors thought for a moment.They weren't sure if the girl was sincere in her words, but judgi
Dakota and several elite Warriors behind her stood next to the Mayor's building."Have you received any reports on the girl's whereabouts?"Dakota had instructed them to search for Archie's location within this complex."Forgive us, Miss! There is no sign of the girl in this complex," one of them replied."What do you mean? Are you suggesting that Brian was given false information?" Dakota replied.The information about Archie being in one of the buildings in this complex came directly from the Masked Warrior spy working for Tectona. He wouldn't lie unless he was tired of living."Forgive us, Miss!" the Warrior replied, bowing his head.Dakota was about to order him to continue the search for Archie, but suddenly another Warrior came and told her, "Miss, Mr. Amaro and all the Council members are in the meeting room. What should we do?"Dakota did not seem to be interested in hearing this.Her sole focus at the moment was to find Archie as soon as possible and return to Quercus. Dakota
When Daniel turned to the source of the voice, it was Amelia.His brow furrowed when he heard her question. "Amelia, what do you mean?""Daniel, I had a strange dream last night!"The girl then told him about the night when Daniel had been taken care of while he was unconscious."I saw a group of people on horseback, dressed in white from head to toe."Since Amelia had never met people like that before, she assumed they were mountain people. After all, it was only a dream, right?But when she remembered the dream, it felt very real, as if Amelia could see the group of people directly, just as if she were awake.In addition, Amelia could sense a powerful energy within them."Even in my dream, I could feel that the energy within them was really strong! But that's not what surprised me. I saw two girls and a young man who was unconscious in one of the carts that the group of people were carrying. It's like I know these people!"Amelia wasn't sure what she saw, but she could see in her me
"Even if you want to do anything to me afterwards, including ending my life, I won't resist or refuse!"Struggling to speak because of Dakota's hand around his neck, Aaron tried to calm the girl down.On the other side, Dakota actually felt a little suspicious after hearing the old man's words. "Why does he want to go with me alone?" she wondered.If it was a trap, wouldn't it be easier for Aaron to end her life when she was alone than when she was surrounded by her subordinates?But even if that was the case, Dakota wasn't too worried. "The old man's power is exhausted. I could easily defeat him. So why should I fear him?"After thinking for a while, the girl finally let go of Aaron's collar."Let's go now! If you lie to me, I will make you and your whole family suffer!"Dakota started to leave, but Aaron knelt down again and begged the girl. "Please save my son! I beg you! I'm willing to trade my life for his!"Dakota looked into the distance where Archibald was still struggling wit
Contrary to what you might think from the outside, behind this steel door is an incredibly spacious and luxurious living room. The floor is made of high quality marble in a combination of white and black, forming a special emblem.The walls separating one room from the other are made of thick transparent glass."Come in, Miss!" Aaron said, inviting the girl into the room.As the girl stepped over the threshold that separated the room from the corridor outside, the steel gate closed again.As she stepped onto the beautiful marble floor, she realized that the emblem she saw on the floor was a reflection of something hanging from the ceiling of the room.Looking up, she saw a dome-shaped chandelier made of hundreds of beautiful pearls.Dakota was speechless at what she saw. But before her astonishment could fade, she no longer saw the old man in his place. "Huh! Where did the old man go?"After a while, her mind regained its focus. She hadn't come to this place to play around. She had to
Daniel stared at the girl intently and asked her to explain what was really bothering her.Amelia took several deep breaths and exhaled."Daniel, I'm actually worried about what Mr. Amaro is going to do!""Why is that? Forget it! It's better than the fire damaging other parts of his body!" Daniel said, trying to comfort the girl."It's not that!" Amelia replied, looking annoyed."Then what do you mean?"Daniel thought Amelia was worried about Archibald."I'm talking about Mr. Aaron!"What?Amelia's words made Daniel remember the old man who was currently being threatened by Dakota for something he hadn't done."You're right! Didn't Mr. Aaron just lie earlier? What will happen to him if Dakota finds out that he lied?"Daniel's face seemed to consider his words. Unseen by Daniel, Amelia shook her head again."No! Not like this, Daniel!"Daniel turned his head to the girl sitting next to him, not really understanding what the girl wanted."I had a vision!"Daniel stared at Amelia intentl
Amelia did not answer Daniel's question.Her body continued to shake as she tried to suppress and deny the memories that had haunted her for the past ten years.Sensing that something serious must have happened to the girl, Daniel took Amelia's hands in his own and tried to channel his inner energy into her.With his energy transfer technique, Daniel hoped to relieve the mental pressure the girl was experiencing.As their hands joined and Daniel focused his mind on healing Amelia, another technique Daniel possessed suddenly became active beyond his control.It was the mind reading technique!When he saw what the girl might have seen in her vision, Daniel's eyes widened with indescribable amazement."What's that?" he exclaimed with restraint.***"You miserable old man! Get me out of here!" Dakota shouted from inside the glass room.But it was in vain. As explained earlier, the room was airtight, so the girl's screams could not be heard by Aaron.Only the movement of her lips and her a
One day, the head of the Amaro family announced to everyone that he was going to marry his second son, Aaron Amaro, to a girl from another noble family named Dolcie.According to Tectona's tradition, this family had to invite the girl to visit their castle.She accepted their invitation and came alone, without her family. Of course, being a noble, she was accompanied by dozens of Warriors.On the way, Dolcie's escort took a wrong turn.To help the girl, the Amaro family asked Rufus to pick her up.When Rufus saw Dolcie for the first time, his heart raced.As a commoner from a poor family, this was the first time he had seen a girl of Dolcie's extraordinary beauty.On the girl's side, not knowing that Rufus was just a servant, she greeted the man very politely."Thank you for taking the time to meet me, sir! I feel very honored to be personally picked up by the Amaro family," she said as she saw Rufus get out of his car.Dolcie's kindness made Rufus' heart beat irregularly. Not only di
