“Did you get a good look at it? I did it just like that. But if you’re still unclear, I don’t mind showing you again!” Aunt Rockefeller said calmly. It seemed as though the half-stepped grandmasters she just killed were nothing but little chicks to her.
“This…” Flora felt her soul jump out of her body. Backing away immediately, she wanted to make a run for the exit.
However, just as she turned around, she realized that two people were standing at the door. They were Holly and Maya.
Holly swung her fists as balls of flames formed right above her hand.
“Spiritual power with fire elementals? She’s a cultivator?!” Flora was shocked. She didn’t expect that Alex’s young sister would be an actual cultivation guru of all things.
Additionally, that woman who had just killed two half-stepped grandmasters in a flash was an even more terrifying subject.
Flora finally realized that her sister had messed with the wrong group of people. She might end up terribly as well.
Flora’s bloody eyes released a large gush of demonic Chi as she screamed, “Get out of my way!”
Her voice sounded like that of a demon since she had activated her mental power. As a cultivator, her strength was mainly in controlling minds. Her power was known as the Shiketsu Melody.
Holly was stunned for a brief while. Due to this inconvenience, her fist slowed down slightly. Hence, Flora dodged this and pulled a dagger out of her pockets, swinging it towards Holly.
Shing!!!
Just then, a yellow beam of light streaked from Holly’s body.
It would seem that the talisman that Alex gave her was starting to take effect, managing to block Flora’s attack.
Maya, who was standing next to the two, immediately activated her Silver Frost and slammed her palm onto Flora’s chest.
Bam!
Flora fell to the ground.
Aunt Rockefeller pinned her foot on Flora’s chest, holding her down as she took her mask off. With that, this incident had come to an end.
Brittany brought Aunt Rockefeller to the table with a warm smile, asking her to stay for dinner.
“It’s alright,” said Aunt Rockefeller. “I’m still a little worried since Alex provoked a bunch of extraordinary people back in Michigan, so I’m heading there right now. You guys… Should hide, for the time being, I suppose?”
“We want to go to Michigan too. We can handle it,” Maya replied.
“Then… See you all in Michigan!”
Aunt Rockefeller didn’t seem to be interested in going as a whole group. Instead, she just left the manor without a word.
***
Three days had passed.
On this very day, the Zimmer family of Michigan was holding a funeral at their place. Although it couldn’t be considered a manor, it was still relatively large.
Easton and Viole’s caskets were placed neatly in the front of the hall.
After three days, discussions about this trial had become extremely heated. The Zimmer family had made sure to used everything in their power to control what the internet could spread. They even made an announcement simply to destroy Alex and Phoebe’s reputations.
They had managed to accuse them of being a disgusting couple that knew no boundaries, whereas their children were innocent citizens.
It was currently ten in the morning. The whole Zimmer family had arrived in the hall. Moreover, the law enforcement department of Michigan, an inspector from Alaska, and Lord Commander from the most mysterious department in America, Department Six, had arrived as well.
With such powerful figures around, the air was heavy with an overpowering atmosphere. Nobody even dared to breathe too loudly.
The seconds passed by quickly.
Suddenly, someone yelled. “There! He’s there! He finally came!”
Alex had arrived at the hall.
