The holy maiden’s soul is already very weak. Without the protection of a human body, it wouldn’t have a chance of
surviving under the energy of heaven and earth’s suppression.
“Of course,” Fernando responded. He activated his teleportation magecraft immediately and disappeared with
Jared in a flash.
When the pair arrived at the Gunderson family estate, they found Chester engaged in deep conversation with an
elderly man.
After learning that Jared had come, Chester hurried out at once to greet him. The elderly man was dumbfounded
by his actions.
He’s the Gunderson family’s Great Elder. I can’t believe he’d go out to greet his guests. Even I have never
experienced such a welcome!
Puzzled, the elderly man followed Chester outside. “Mr. Chance,” Chester said, hurrying forward and greeting Jared
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdeferentially.
“I’m sorry for the intrusion, Great Elder. I needed to speak to you,” Jared responded. “We can talk inside, Mr.
Chance.” Chester quickly ushered Jared into the house.
A look of surprise crossed the elderly man’s face when he saw that the person Chester went to welcome personally
turned out to be a young man.
He looked at Chester and asked, “Who is this person? Why do you treat him with so much respect?” “He’s Jared
Chance,” Chester replied. Turning to Jared, he said, “Mr. Chance, this is Wayne Gingerich, head of The Adamantine.”
Jared nodded at Wayne politely. “Nice to meet you, Mr. Gingerich.”
Meanwhile, Wayne stared at Jared in utter shock. He exclaimed excitedly, “You’re the person who founded Deragon
Sect, went up against Warriors Alliance, and wiped out the Watanabe family from Jetroina?”
Stunned, Jared looked confused. He could not understand how Wayne, who had been in the secret realm, would
know so much about him.
Just then, Fernando stepped forward and explained to him, “The Gingerich family is The Adamantine’s
representative in the mundane world, so Verner is part of The Adamantine.”
Realization dawned on Jared after he heard that. So, it was Verner who told him everything. From the looks of it, it
also appears that the Gunderson family and The Adamantine are on good terms with each other. No wonder Verner
didn’t treat me with animosity like the others when he first met me!
“Mr. Gingerich, all those things you said aren’t even worth mentioning,” Jared replied with at smile. “You’re truly
young and capable,” Wayne responded with admiration written all over his face.
“You’re too kind. I’m so sorry, but I have something to discuss with Great Elder,” Jared said apologetically. “Of
course! Please go ahead.”
Having said that, Wayne walked to one side tactfully. With a gentle wave of Chester’s hand, an enclosed space
appeared. Then, he asked Jared, “What brings you here with such urgency?”
Jared told Chester about Evangeline’s disappearance. He even revealed that the holy maiden had possessed
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEvangeline’s body. After all, he did not feel right to keep it a secret from Chester.
Chester was gripped with worry upon learning that his daughter had gone missing but did not. seem bothered by
the fact that the holy
maiden’s soul had possessed her body. When Evangeline’s soul returns, the holy maiden’s soul inside her will just
have to leave.
“Great Elder, do you know of any way to determine Evangeline’s location so I can rescue her?” Jared enquired,
revealing his reason for coming to find Chester.
Chester furrowed his brows. “Locating her is something that’s too difficult for us. However, it wouldn’t be a problem
if we had charms masters. They’d only need to draw a tracking talisman to detect her aura. That way, we’d be able
to find her. However, charm spells have long since become a lost art, and very few know how to cast them. I don’t
know where we’d be able to find a charms master.”
Jared’s eyes lit up when he heard that. “Now that you mention it, I know someone who can draw tracking
talismans.”
He had immediately thought of Flaxseed. Back when Zion was hunting down Jared, Zion had gotten tracking
talismans from Flaxseed. That was why no matter how hard Jared tried to get away, he could not escape Zion’s
pursuit.
