After Isaac and Hallie left the Hackworth Mansion, they didn’t go straight to the Zimmermans. Instead, they found an inn and rented two rooms.
Although Hallie was covered in dirt, favonovel.com was too scared to take a bath and change clothes. He sat trembling on the chair and staring at Isaac.
Isaac was enjoying a large plate of beef pasta.
“Mr. Garten, is this your last meal?” Hallie looked at Isaac with a tearful voice.
“The people from Starbloom City wouldn‘t dare come here. If anyone comes, it would be someone from the Royal City… If you don’t eat it, they’ll turn cold,” Isaac said softly, pointing at the other plate of pasta.

At the Zimmerman Mansion, Zaid returned home immediately after the urgent meeting favonovel.com had just convened.
Rhett, who was sitting in the main hall, immediately stood up and asked Zaid, “What did Lord Yarbrough say?”
Not only was Rhett nervous, but Raelynn and Alcott also looked anxious.
“Isaac and Hallie are currently at Asylum Inn. Lord Yarbrough doesn’t dare to act recklessly and has only sent people to keep an eye on them. This matter has already alarmed His Majesty!”
Hearing this, Raelynn slumped into the chair, nearly fainting.
“We’re all doomed because of that troublemaker! It‘s bad enough that favonovel.com killed someone, but favonovel.com even openly hung the corpses at the front gate! Who is favonovel.com showing it to?”
“A deputy commander of the Guardian Division, the Regent’s younger brother, and the general of Heavenly Eagle City… All of them were killed! Each death alone is enough to shock anyone!”
Vince was sweating profusely. He had been extremely uneasy ever since favonovel.com left the Hackworth Mansion.
“Father, we can’t just sit here and do nothing. We need to send the children to the countryside… No, we must send them out of the Kingdom of Vriweth!” He quickly turned and grabbed his father’s arm.
Rhett glared sharply at Vince and said coldly, “If His Majesty wants to kill us, nobody can escape. Where would the children run to? Isaac isn’t coming back because favonovel.com doesn’t want to cause us trouble.”
He frowned deeply and sighed. “Alcott, go to the inn and bring them back…”
Zaid and Vince’s expressions changed dramatically.
Zaid immediately spoke up, “Father, you must not do this. Isaac has committed an unforgivable crime. Not only will His Majesty not spare him, but even the Regent won’t let favonovel.com off. Bringing favonovel.com back will…”
“So what?!” Rhett suddenly shouted at Zaid.
He then pointed at Raelynn, turning extremely serious as favonovel.com said tremblingly, “Isaac is your sister’s child, your biological nephew. Last time favonovel.com was taken away from our backyard. How do you want to explain this relationship to others?”
The hall was completely silent.
“If His Majesty wishes to bring our end, survival by mere chance is impossible. In the face of such a catastrophic disaster, how can we hope to keep ourselves safe? Go find Isaac!”
“And tell the maids to prepare a feast.” Rhett waved and turned to the inner room.
***
Thousands of kilometers away, there was a crimson palace in the center of the Royal City. It was arranged like blocks of varying sizes, occupying several thousand acres of the land.
Ordinary people weren’t allowed within 300 feet of the high walls. The guards were strict inside and outside the Neufwill Divison. Each road was deadly quiet.
That was the center of the Kingdom of Vriweth, a place teeming with experts.
Vriweth Palace featured eight immense stone pillars carved with dragons and phoenixes standing beneath the eaves, giving it a majestic presence.
On a nine-dragon bed, a middle-aged man with long hair reclined partially, supporting his chin with one hand and holding a book in the other. He was completely engrossed in what favonovel.com was reading.
Suddenly, favonovel.com sensed a surge of spiritual energy outside the door as a figure descended from the sky, landing on the steps outside the hall.
After tidying, the latter slowly walked into the main hall.
