Selma Payne’s POV:

I watched as Aldrich took the children’s hands and went to the garden to play. Kara walked in and whispered in my ear, “There’s news from the Association. Master Kevin has invited you over.”

“Is there a result?” I immediately perked up.

Kara nodded.

The Sorcerer Research Association was filled with mysterious sorcery elements. This place was overly plain compared to the resplendent Royal Academy of Sciences on the other side of the same street. Most buildings were made of wood or stone, the afterglow of the era left behind hundreds of years ago.

Of course, those fire and earthquake-proof spells and runes also shone with the light of wisdom accumulated over time.

Many people who didn’t know this place kept it a secret, thinking that any word about this place would attract dark murmurs and gazes.

However, if you visited this place for the entire morning, you would find that it was no different from any other institution in the secular world. The box-like office, the gaudy single-person workspace, the occasional fluorescent light that failed, and the exhausted workers. Even the werewolf grandmasters had to earn a salary to maintain their livelihood.

Master Kevin’s workshop was quite ancient, and the directors of fantasy films would probably make it a movie set. However, a real workshop was much more dangerous than a set. At least there would not be a violent and aggressive ghost on the set.

“This is a little different from what I imagined,” I said as I looked at Julie, locked up in a rune-covered glass box. “So, is this a success or a failure?”

“It’s a success. The two halves of the soul have perfectly fused back into one,” Master Kevin said confidently.

1 tried to make myself sound less offensive. “Perfect?”

Master Kevin didn’t seem to realize what 1 was asking. After a few seconds, he realized that 1 wasn’t his colleague or assistant who was proficient in the principles of the soul. He said apologetically, “Oh, yes. In terms of the soul itself, this attempt was very successful. Julie’s soul was not damaged at all. As for her current state, 1 think it’s a manifestation of her state when she was alive. In other words, Julie was already crazy before she died, and this madness wasn’t pathological. Some external force disturbed her soul, so she remained crazy even after death.”

1 was inevitably disappointed, but Master Kevin was even more out of it. He had been absent-minded the whole time and looked at Julie with an indescribable emotion.

I understood him very well because this meant that the chance to get clues about the death of his lover have once again been cut off. After placing so much hope, this result was too cruel.

But as far as I was concerned, things hadn’t reached a standstill. Although Julie couldn’t provide us with an answer, her state still revealed some information.

It was impossible for the manor to hire a lunatic as a servant, so her madness must have been caused by someone after Layla’s death.

What kind of person would lay their hands on an ordinary servant? 1 believed there were only two possibilities: Julie saw something she shouldn’t have seen, so she was ‘killed’ in this way. Julie was involved in the murderer’s plan, and she went crazy by accident or accident.

And if he wanted to silence her, it was safer to lull her than to make her go crazy. Therefore, I was more inclined to believe that Julie was involved in the plan to assassinate Layla, and it became like this because of unforeseen circumstances.

Then, a new question arose – was Julie recruited halfway, or had she been planted in the manor as the murderer’s spy from the beginning?

At that time, for Layla’s safety, all the people in the manor had been checked thoroughly by the Intelligence Department to ensure that no criminals could sneak in. All the people who worked in the manor were also closely monitored, which made it almost impossible for them to get in touch with any forces that stood against the royal family.

Whether Julie was a spy or had been bewitched, the murderer who could do this could not be underestimated. He must have a very powerful background, so powerful that he could even fool the eyes of the royal family.

Over twenty years ago, very few could do this among the families as numerous as weeds, including the Evaria Family, which was still at the peak of its power, and the Woof Anca Family, which had just gone downhill.

It wasn’t impossible for other families, but the number of people who had a grudge against the royal family could be counted on one hand.

So, the suspect went back to the original target.

When 1 thought about some of the characteristics of the Evaria Family, 1 seemed to have a flash of inspiration. “How much do you understand about Sisley’s abilities?” 1 asked Master Kevin.

It wasn’t without reason that I let him go. The price of my freedom was to cooperate with the Sorcerer Research Association to study the ability of ‘mind control’. Sisley was very cooperative, at least in his performance. He didn’t resist the werewolf grandmasters using his abilities to do some tests.

It was impossible to use humans, so the werewolf grandmasters found some animals to conduct experiments. They tested the level of intelligence, the soul’s resistance to mental control, and the highest threshold that different creatures could withstand..
