"Eleanor!"

Daniel's breath was in his mouth as he saw who the girl in front of him was. He was left speechless. Daniel was on the verge of touching the girl's hand. But just as Daniel was about to touch her hand, the girl pulled her hands back.

"Excuse me, but who are you? Why are you coming here?"

Though the words were not harshly spoken, the girl's face was not happy.

"Ellie, I am so sorry! I was not able to meet you at that time." Daniel told her again. However, what he said only made the girl raise her eyebrows. She didn't understand what Daniel was trying to say.

The girl then had a look at Clara and Daniel and asked them to leave.

"I'm sorry. I thought I was not the person you meant. I have no idea who you are, either. If you have nothing else to say, you'd better leave this place!"

Eleanor was about to close the door. But Clara casually extended her hand forward. The girl's movement was so quick that she had the door in her grasp.

"Sorry, are you really Eleanor?" she ask

    "Why do you talk so much about Antony? Who is he? What does he do with my sister?" Eleanor asked. "It is our belief that this man is the one responsible for everything that has happened to you and Leonora. But you don't have to worry! We promise that we'll do everything we can to find your sister," Daniel answered determinedly. His eyes showed seriousness. "That's right! We're not going to stop until she's found," Clara added. Eleanor was moved by their sincere words. The girl was thankful that she hadn't kicked them out of the house before. At the same time, there was a small pang of regret in her heart that she almost had to do that to them. "All right then, we'll leave now. If there's any information about Leonora, just let us know." Clara continued. The two girls then exchanged their cell phone numbers with each other. "Thank you for helping us find Leonora. I would also like to apologize for being so rude to you earlier." Eleanor said as she watched Clara and Daniel walk awa

    "Huh? Where's Clara?" Daniel started out with one plan. He would open the door and ask Clara to back her car up and leave. Daniel would then pretend to be angry in an attempt to stall for time. Since he knew the men wanted Clara, they might not care about him anymore. There was also the possibility that Daniel would be taken hostage by them, but that was not a problem at all. For Daniel, Clara's safety was the most important thing. Another possibility was that the men would be in pursuit of Clara with their car. But of course they wouldn't be able to catch up. Clara must have been far away when the men got into their car. And considering how fast the coupé was, their SUV certainly couldn't keep up. Daniel was certain this was the best plan. No matter what the risk, he could not fail to protect Clara! But now, the girl was not there. That made Daniel very worried. He was not afraid that his plan would fail. Daniel just didn't want Clara to get hurt, not even a little. "What am I go

    The car initially stopped some distance from where Daniel was standing. It was probably because they were trying to analyze the situation. After all, as a unit of trained officers, they should not be in such a careless hurry to an ambush point. A voice emerged from the loudspeaker above the van. "We're police, whoever's there, drop your weapons and raise your hands above your heads!" Hearing the order, Daniel immediately raised his hands above his head as instructed. Seconds later, the police could confirm that only one civilian was in the area. He was standing with his hands up and no weapon was nearby. Around him, there were several people dressed in black and wearing masks who were lying on the ground, without any movement in sight. Seeing the situation, the van approached slowly. A truck was following behind. As the van pulled up, a police officer in his fifties stepped out of the front door of the van. Not long after, several policemen, no less than ten in number, also got o

    Clara drove at a rather high speed. It was not long before they passed the entrance to the highway that connected the city to the suburbs. Clara took the right way. If she wanted to go to Tectona University, she should have taken the left. "Miss Insignia, shall we go straight to your house?" "Yes, of course!" "But..." "But what? Why?" Clara looked at Daniel in the mirror. There was a wrinkle in her forehead and a hint of curiosity in her eyes. "Is it polite to go to someone's house with clothes like this?" Daniel said pointing at the clothes he was wearing. He looked like he needed to get cleaned up. His plain white shirt looked very filthy and the light blue jeans he wore had rips at various spots. It was the result of his fight with Fernando earlier. Clara smiled a little when she saw Daniel's expression. "Stay cool! I have something for you." A few moments later, the car they were driving approached a gate that looked luxurious. When Clara's car was right in front of the

    They sat in the living room for a while before an old man with slightly gray hair entered through the front door. When the man entered the room, a very strong aura emanated from his body. Not only was he charismatic, but at his age in his eighties, his body still looked upright and strong. "Grandfather, welcome!" Clara quickly walked over to the old man and hugged him tightly. In return, the man hugged his beloved granddaughter in the same way. His face showed pride. Observing Clara's face, the man noticed an expression different from her usual one. Someone or something must have made his granddaughter very excited today. "My dear, you look very happy today! You want to tell me about it?" Charles asked, still with his arm around Clara's shoulder. "Grandpa, I brought someone you wanted to meet! He's in the living room right now!" Clara immediately pulled away from Charles' embrace and took the old man's hand. The girl quickly stepped forward while Charles calmly followed. "Daniel,

    Charles then went on to explain the reason why he had been using the technique of mind reading."We were just worried that you were part of the Baldini family..." Charles let out a long sigh of relief, as if he had been carrying a boulder on his back.On the other hand, Daniel was surprised to hear Charles' explanation. This morning, Clara had also asked and worried about the same thing. This led him to ponder the nature of the relationship between these two noble families.During his six years in Tectona, Daniel had become acquainted with several of its noble families. The largest and most powerful among them, and the ones who have ultimate control over the city, are the Insignia Family and the Baldini Family.The Greatland Kingdom is a constitutional monarchy. However, much of the power remains in the hands of the aristocratic families. Thus, under the Greatland Kingdom's Law of Nobility, the holder of the highest title of nobility in each level of the Kingdom's territory had more p

    "Unfortunately..." Charles paused and took a deep breath, implying that something bad was about to happen. "The closer they get to Harper, the higher the price they will have to pay." The team led by Oliver faced a mysterious group of fighters with above average skills. They mercilessly killed each team member one by one. With such actions, they seemed to say that if the team continued to try to find Harper, they too would meet the same fate as their friends: to end up at the point of a sword and have their heads cut off. "I don't want any more casualties. After consulting with all members of the city council, they agreed with me. We've made the decision to temporarily halt the search for Harper," Charles said. He demands that Oliver and the team focus on the investigation of the mystery group first. "To my surprise, this mysterious group had already managed to massacre most of them before Oliver could pull his entire team out. Even in the end, Oliver has to suffer the same fate as

    Charles walked ahead to the dining room on his own, while Clara and Daniel walked behind him. When he was far enough ahead, Daniel looked at Clara for a long time, full of admiration for her."You look very beautiful, Miss Insignia!" He complimented her sincerely. He had no intention of teasing her. Her appearance tonight was outstanding. Clara's dark red dress multiplied her beauty many times over.Clara was silent and blushed slightly. For a moment she was filled with happiness."Let's catch up with Grandpa!" She said after regaining her composure. She walked one step ahead of Daniel, her steps seeming faster than usual.Nearly all the core members of the Insignia family had gathered in the dining room. Charles chose an empty seat at the end of the large table and sat down.In the Insignia family's seating arrangement, the main seat at the end of the table was reserved for the head of the family. Meanwhile, the seats to the right were reserved for older family members. William and A

    "Dakota, are you okay?"Daniel grabbed a cloth and covered the girl's body.At that moment, Dakota simply collapsed into Daniel's arms."I am okay! But promise me one thing!" she whispered."What is it?"His answer made Dakota cry harder and hug him around his waist even tighter."Never leave me ... forever!""Of course! I promise!""Wait a moment! I'll help the others!"Daniel let go of the girl's embrace and jumped into the air.Then he shot a very bright beam at the Warriors as they lay helpless on the ground.The beam was so bright, as bright as sunlight.When it hit the cultivators, it instantly cured their bodies of the pain they were suffering."Daniel!""Mr. Elrod!"Both those close to Daniel and those who didn't know him approached him with gratitude and great admiration.Shortly thereafter, two handsome men in their forties arrived in a hurry.Seeing a crowd around a young man, they approached."Daniel, forgive me for being late!"The man was none other than William, Charles

    "What? What are you trying to say, huh?" Flavio shouted when he saw Daniel moving his lips towards him."Come on, say what you want to do?" the old man said, putting one ear close to Daniel's mouth."I can't hear you! Hahaha!"The old man became more and more enthusiastic about playing with Daniel.After laughing loudly for a while, Flavio stared at the helpless Daniel."All right, I know what you want!" he said with a mocking smile."You want me to enjoy this girl's body in front of everyone, don't you?" he whispered. "I will, of course! Hahaha!"Flavio then slammed Daniel's weak body to the floor.Bang!After that he walked slowly, swaying his body towards Dakota, as if the girl was a slave waiting for her master."Na-na-na-na-na-na! Na-na-na-na-na-na!"Daniel looked at Flavio with a look that seemed capable of destroying the world."You scoundrel! Stop right there! Don't bother her anymore!"Flavio swayed his body close to Dakota."Sweet girl, your body is very sensual when it move

    "But, Daniel... that's impossible!""Sir, please, just this once! Ignore the rules of nobility and help me! Not only for me, but also for Tectona!"Daniel stared at Peter with a strong determination in his eyes."I beg you, just this once!"Peter looked at Daniel for a moment.He could feel the sincerity and honesty in the young man's eyes.Nodding his head, he said, "I'll do it!"Peter took his cell phone out of his pocket and tapped in some codes to access documents about the largest palace in Tectona.Beep! Beep! Beep!After entering a few codes, the transaction was almost complete, and all they had to do was wait for Daniel's payment."I did it!" Peter exclaimed.Daniel nodded."Now please enter my payment code!"Since Daniel couldn't use his broken phone, he had to rely on the code to access the payment through his account."Nine, three, one, seven..."Daniel said the code to the end.But before Peter could finish processing it, he heard screams from the other side."Aaargh!""Mi

    Flavio narrowed his eyes as he watched Daniel's growing strength."Not bad!" the old man exclaimed. "I admit, for a young man of your age to possess such strength is indeed rare!"Flavio then disappeared from his standing position and reappeared in front of Daniel in a very short time."However, this is certainly not enough to defeat me and will never be enough!"As he said this, Flavio threw a right punch at Daniel's face.The young man, realizing the powerful attack coming towards him, quickly pulled his body to the side.Flavio's power was too great for him to face directly, so he decided to dodge.Woosh!Daniel successfully dodged the attack, but he could still feel the pressure from the air caused by the blow.Before he could think of his next move...Bang!Another powerful punch from Flavio hit Daniel's stomach, making the young man feel as if he had been hit by a massive hammer.Daniel's body was thrown tens of meters away and fell to the ground with a loud thud."Damn!

    "Elder, are you okay?"Dakota asked when she noticed something unusual about her guardian's body."I... I'm fine, Miss!"The Elder of the West seemed to struggle to utter the words.As he finished the sentence, he suddenly collapsed to the ground."Brother, it seems we should not underestimate this old scoundrel!" Dakota exclaimed. "We must join forces with the Tectona Warriors!""Hmm!" Brian nodded in agreement.After instructing one of their subordinates to take care of the Elder of the West, Dakota, Brian, and their entire force moved to join Archibald and the others.Seeing this, Flavio just grinned."Huh, just because you joined, you think you can defeat me? How amusing!"This time, he raised both hands and created a larger energy ball.It was ten times larger than before.Then he quickly threw it at the group of Warriors."Everyone, quickly get out of here!" Archibald shouted. "Now!"He knew that none of them could face Flavio right now.Therefore, the only thing he could do was

    Harper and all of the other Warriors prepared to channel their inner strength to defend against any attacks the old man might unleash.However, their preparedness seemed to be a bit excessive, for only a few steps later, Rufus, who was walking unsteadily along the pile of rubble, suddenly collapsed.After that, a minute, two minutes... ten minutes later, there was no movement from the old man."Is he dead?"Just as some people were thinking of such a question, they were shocked again by the rumbling sound coming from inside the ruins.They turned their eyes back to the ruins while maintaining their vigilance.Moments later, someone with a torn shirt and a body covered in red fluid struggled to emerge from the rubble.When he looked in the opposite direction, all they could see was his stocky back.When he turned around, everyone couldn't contain their emotions. "Daniel!" they all exclaimed.They really didn't expect someone they cared about to survive the collapse of the building."Da

    Flavio turned his body and walked towards the tightly closed steel gate with the intention of breaking through it and getting out. However, before he could take a step, an oversized chandelier hanging from the ceiling above him fell and hit his head.Bang!"Argh! Damn!"Although it wasn't too painful for him, the sharp edge of the chandelier scratched his scalp, causing a rather deep wound.Holding the back of his head, Flavio hurried to leave, but this time, the concrete beam supporting the structure fell again, hitting his body.Bang!"Aaargh! Damn it! Why is everything falling on me?"Without much effort, he pushed the concrete beam away.But before he could move any further, several more beams fell.Flavio didn't have time to do anything else, because in the next few seconds the building had completely collapsed.Meanwhile, Archibald and Harper had successfully evacuated everyone from the city hall.From a distance, they watched as the large and tall building collapsed as if there

    Bleep-bleep! Bleep-bleep!The sound of the alarm froze Flavio and Charles, each with a different expression on their faces.While the head of the Baldini family looked very angry and frustrated, the head of the Insignia family showed a relieved smile."Good job, Harper!" Charles exclaimed in his mind with great joy. "Now I can destroy this place to bury him!""Flavio, why are you just standing there?" he challenged.With that, he no longer hesitated to unleash his inner power to the limit."Aren't you interested in killing me anymore?"A sly smile played on Charles' lips as he said this, as if he was deliberately provoking his opponent to unleash all of his inner strength as well."Huh, insolent!" Flavio cursed, clenching both fists. "It seems I made a mistake not killing you earlier!"When he heard the alarm, he knew that something was definitely wrong.He might not care much about Charles, but he couldn't bear to see Harper, whom he had never touched, go free.With all the strength

    The body of the old man trembled violently.His eyes stared blankly as if he was unconscious.Shortly after, his body fell to the ground and continued to shake."Can you help me carry this lady?" Daniel said to the tall girl.The girl had been at Daniel's side since earlier.She had decided to be the young man's main assistant and do whatever she could for him.While saying that, Daniel handed Dakota, who was still unconscious, to the girl."Wh-what are you going to do?"She knew that Daniel seemed to intend to deal with the old man first."Don't worry about him, just come with us!" she continued.But Daniel just smiled and shook his head."No! If I don't kill him, he'll keep following us!""But..."The girl's eyes showed that she didn't want Daniel to stay in the room."Go now! If not, you will only endanger all the girls!""Okay!" She nodded hesitantly, but tears streamed uncontrollably from the corners of her eyes.This was the first time in her life that she had met someone so kin
