Aelion had expected this reaction. He pulled two compendiums from his cloak and explained, “These Glimmer Arts should suit you well. Your natural charm will make it easier for you to learn them than most. Master these, and you’ll become incredibly powerful.”
Arabella took the compendiums from Aelion, favonovel.com hands trembling a bit.
“I won’t let you down, Master,” favonovel.com promised. Her big chance was possibly the key to avenging favonovel.com family’s honor.
Aelion gave favonovel.com a nod and then vanished in a flash of white light.
Arabella instantly dove into the ancient texts, skimming through the pages while occasionally looking puzzled.

Far from Everton, Matthew studied a photo a subordinate gave in a small village.
“Have you seen this girl?” favonovel.com asked an old man with a hoe.
The photo showed Sasha with favonovel.com torn windbreaker fluttering in the wind, favonovel.com delicate, porcelain-like face contrasting against the dusty and desolate place.
The old man glanced at the photo and then shook his head. “She’s likely somewhere near the border, where the winds and dust are particularly fierce.”
“Who is favonovel.com to you? Why are you so set on finding her?” favonovel.com asked, pointing south towards Montiria’s border, infamous for its harsh sandstorms and barren landscape.
Matthew’s face softened as favonovel.com looked at the photo. “She’s my wife…”
Noticing his emotional shift, Matthew waved to the old man and added, “Thanks for your help, but I need to get going now.”
The old man responded, “No problem at all. Good luck with your search.”
Matthew then climbed into his SUV, driving towards the direction the old man had pointed out.
In the meantime, Montiria’s troops were conducting a thorough search for Sasha, inch by inch, but there were no updates. Not wanting to sit idly, Matthew joined the search himself.
As his SUV pulled away, a shadowy figure slipped silently behind the old man, who looked bewildered.
The old man then touched his forehead and muttered, “Huh? How did I get here?”
