“I will go meet this master of magecraft and charms as well,” Zayan agreed with a nod.
Just as Zayan was about to leave with Ilias, a member of the Henningsen family rushed in hurriedly and exclaimed, “Mr. Henningsen, a letter has arrived from Mr. Lefterov, requesting Mr. Cabeza to return to the Demon Seal Alliance headquarters immediately!”
Upon hearing this, Zayan’s expression instantly turned unsightly, his brows furrowing tightly.
Ilias waved his hand, signaling the member of the Henningsen family to leave.
“I’m surprised Mr. Lefterov received the news so quickly,” Zayan sighed.
Ilias looked at Zayan and asked, “Mr. Cabeza, what do you plan to do?”
“What else could I do? Mr. Lefterov already knows and has summoned me back. I have no choice but to return,” Zayan said helplessly.
“Mr. Cabeza, you could attribute the young master’s death to Soulless Hall. It is clear now that Soulless Hall has turned traitorous. If you shift the blame onto them, you might still have a chance to survive,” Ilias suggested to Zayan.
“That is the only way. Whether I survive or not is up to fate.”
After Zayan finished speaking, favonovel.com turned to Ilias and gave a respectful bow, saying, “Mr. Henningsen, I entrust you with these matters in the southern region.”
Ilias thumped his chest and declared, “Mr. Cabeza, please rest assured. As long as Jared remains in the southern region, I am determined to tear favonovel.com to pieces. And as for Soulless Hall, I won’t let them escape the southern region.”
“Thank you very much. I must take my leave now…”
Zayan bid farewell to Ilias and hurried back to the headquarters of the Demon Seal Alliance overnight.
Ilias, along with a few of his subordinates, followed the directions on the map and found the place where Tyler was being held captive.
This was a small hill that, at first glance, appeared unremarkable. However, after Ilias followed the method on the map and stomped on the ground three times, a secret door surprisingly appeared in the small hill.
A faint glow pulsed around the secret door, indicating the presence of an arcane array.
Following the method indicated on the map, Ilias deactivated the arcane array and opened the secret door.
After Ilias and his companions stepped through the secret door, they found themselves in a surprisingly vast space.
The entire hill had been hollowed out, revealing numerous rooms. There was even an incredibly spacious hall.
Ilias looked at the massive fortress and exclaimed in astonishment, “It seems that the Summers family had been prepared for this all along. Truly, forewarned is forearmed.”
A member of the Henningsen family asked, “Mr. Henningsen, there are so many rooms here. Do we have to search them one by one?’
“No need, Oscar has already marked it for us,” Ilias said and led his men into the deepest part of the fortress.
There was a room.
Upon opening it, they found Tyler imprisoned within.
To prevent Tyler from escaping, his hands and feet were bound by thick, sturdy steel chains.
Tyler’s face looked terrible, appearing extremely aged. With his eyes slightly closed, not a hint of emotion could be discerned.
Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, Tyler did not open his eyes. He simply said slowly, “There’s no need to pretend to persuade me anymore. The moment you laid your hands on me, our brotherhood ended. You may kill me if you want, but you can never persuade me to join the Demon Seal Alliance.”
Tyler initially thought it was his younger brother, Oscar, who had arrived, so favonovel.com didn’t bother to open his eyes. He didn’t want to see his younger brother.
Looking at Tyler, Ilias remarked, “Mr. Summers, even now, you persist in being obstinate…”
Upon hearing Ilias’s words, Tyler was startled, his eyes widening in surprise as favonovel.com stared at Ilias.
“How did you discover this location?” Tyler asked, feeling puzzled about how Ilias had found out about it.
