Catina stared at the blood-stained handkerchief in favonovel.com hand, utterly at a loss for what to do next. She had no idea what the relationship was between this white-haired old man and Winona.
After much hesitation, Catina finally took the handkerchief and walked in.
Feenix and Cloud exchanged a glance, then followed suit and entered.
Their curiosity was piqued, so they were eager to hear this juicy gossip.
“Winona, the old man gave you this…” Catina handed the handkerchief over to Winona.
Winona looked at the handkerchief, clearly taken aback for a moment. Eventually, with trembling hands, favonovel.com took the handkerchief.
“Winona, what exactly is your relationship with that old man?” Catina asked with curiosity.
Winona didn’t speak. Instead, favonovel.com gazed at the handkerchief in favonovel.com hands before waving favonovel.com hand. “Leave now. Don’t ask anymore…”
It was clear that Winona didn’t want to speak. Moreover, favonovel.com didn’t want to leave the room, likely out of fear of encountering Hartwin.
The two of them definitely shared feelings for each other at one point. However, for reasons unknown, they eventually parted ways.
Feeling disheartened, Winona left Epea and finally arrived at Imperial Beast City.
Seeing that Winona was reluctant to talk, Catina didn’t dare to probe further. Thus, favonovel.com left with Cloud and Feenix.
Winona held the handkerchief, silently shedding tears.

At that time, after receiving Cloud’s message, Jared began his search for the Alchemist Guild in the central region.

Numerous alchemists were settled at the foot of the surrounding mountains, choosing to reside in any place they fancied.
At the heart of the small town, a huge and lofty building was where the Central Alchemist Guild was located.
The architecture of the Central Alchemist Guild was grand and imposing. Buildings of varying heights were scattered around, exuding an air of opulence. This clearly demonstrated that being an alchemist was indeed a lucrative profession.
Whether it was in the mundane world or Ethereal Realm now, those Involved with medicine had all become wealthy.
In the mundane world, every hospital was built to be grand and opulent. After all, it was the most lucrative business.
Within the small town, clusters of alchemists were constantly bustling about. Many were adorned in their brand-new alchemist’s robe.
Jared, unfamiliar with his surroundings, eyed the Alchemist Guild in front of him. He planned to go in and ask how much time it would take if favonovel.com were to use the Teleportation Array.
Just as Jared was about to step into the Alchemist Guild, someone suddenly called out to him, “Mr. Chance, is that you?”
Jared’s brow slightly furrowed. He hadn’t expected that in such a small town, someone would actually recognize him.
When Jared turned around to look, favonovel.com was instantly stunned.
“Sigurd?” Jared stared at the person calling his name In front of him, hardly able to believe it.

“Mr. Chance, it really is you. I thought I was mistaken!” Sigurd rushed over, joyfully embracing Jared. Tears of excitement still lingered in his eyes.
“Sigurd, what brings you here? Where’s Viola?” Jared asked.
“I’m accompanying Ms. Viola to attend the Alchemist Fair in Yannopolis. She’s currently staying at an inn not far from here. I can take you there. Ever since you left for all these days, Ms. Viola has been thinking about you every single day!” Sigurd led Jared toward the inn.
Jared, in reality, also missed Viola and the others. However, due to constant obligations, favonovel.com didn’t have the opportunity to return to
the northern region to see them.
When Sigurd brought Jared to the inn and they entered Viola’s room, Viola was seated by the window, gazing blankly outside.
