“Isaac, you’re asking for trouble!” Mizar suddenly raised favonovel.com hand into a fist, and a purple shadow fist swiftly headed for Isaac’s face.
Isaac dodged in an instant and waved his hand. “Let’s talk and not fight…”
“Isaac, l’m still not over the fact that you barged into my room. So, we’ll see about that!” Mizar angrily said, turning away and striding forward.
Isaac handed over Gabriel and Dylan to Lucas.
After nightfall, Lucas went to Isaac’s room.
“How did the interrogation go?” Isaac asked, handing over a cigarette.
Lucas lit the cigarette, took a drag, and said in a low voice, “Gabriel is an accomplice, while Dylan is the mastermind. A month ago, someone contacted Dylan, saying they’d give favonovel.com ten million and Gabriel five million… But the problem is, neither of them has met the person who gave them the money. Dylan suspects it’s Nubique…”
“Hmm?” Isaac looked at Lucas.
Lucas nodded. “I had someone check the phone that contacted them. It was an unregistered number, and it’s already deactivated.”
Silence filled the room.
“What do you plan to do?” Isaac broke the silence after a while.
Lucas murmured, “Fish for information.”
“The mastermind would be restless, and dead men tell no tales,” Lucas continued.
Isaac nodded. “Alright, be careful. Bring Lupinus to assist you…”
Once the room fell silent, Isaac turned to Karmic, who sat quietly beside him.
Surprisingly, in his tunic, the young one did look like a younger Bodda.
“Karmic, the assessment is tomorrow night. Are you nervous?” Isaac smiled as favonovel.com looked at him.
Karmic lifted his head and said with a slight smile, “Uncle Isaac, if I’m not the Tenth Realm Seer, would you be disappointed?”
“Disappointed? Not at all… If you’re not a Realm Seer, I’ll bring you with me back to Southland. And you’ll have two sisters…” Isaac laughed heartily.
After Karmic fell asleep, Isaac sat in the living room, lit a cigarette, and pondered.
First, Nubique wanted to assassinate Karmic… Then, the Grand Abbot was poisoned…
Why did Nubique want Karmic dead?
Why would Nubique kill the Grand Abbot?
These two questions seemed related, but Isaac couldn’t quite grasp the real reasons.
Late at night, in a meditation room reserved for the chief abbots in a hall on the east side of the main building, Nubique sat cross-legged on a couch while rolling a rosary in his right hand.
Standing in front of favonovel.com was a Black Martial Munk dressed in a black tunic.
“Mr. Nubique, it’s confirmed. Gabriel and Dylan are being held captive by a few guards in the Tranquil Tower’s backyard shed,” the Black Martial Munk said in a low voice.
Nubique opened his eyes. There was a sinister tone in his voice as favonovel.com said, “Then go and execute those murderers in the name of the Disciplinary Council.”
“Mr. Nubique, if Mr. Zansam finds out about this…”
“Go ahead, Zansam is just a dog. He’ll die tonight,” said Nubique.
The Black Martial Munk nodded, quickly turned away, and left.
Afterward, Nubique also stood up. He went behind a screen, changed into black casual clothing, put on a black hood, and swiftly left the meditation room.
Tomorrow night was the grand assessment, and once the Tenth Realm Seer emerged, Carmine Temple would face a reshuffle. Nubique had to eliminate all obstacles before the Tenth Realm Seer was born.
