Chapter 534: A Square Inch Of Land

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Selma Payne’s POV:

The experiment results showed that intelligence’s influence was almost zero. The tenacity of the soul determined the success or failure of mental control. Crows with psychic abilities could resist for longer than powerful tigers, and their threshold was higher. However, all souls would face the same end-madness once the threshold was broken.

Yes, there was only one result – going crazy. No matter how serious it was, it couldn’t directly cause death unless the experimental subject committed suicide in an extreme state of madness.

Going crazy but not dying, how familiar did that sound?

1 was almost certain that the murderer must be from the Evaria Family and one of the descendants of that illegitimate child.

His age did not match. The murderer was his blood-related brother, sister, or even one or several biological parents.

However, the Evaria Family had hidden this illegitimate child’s descendant too well. I even found Sisley by accident.

Unless 1 got everyone in their family to do a blood test, I did not doubt that the Evaria Family could keep this secret until the day they were destroyed.

When they were in power, the descendants of the Lycan King were their ladder to heaven. Now that he had fallen to this point, the stairway to heaven had become a curse.

Unless it was necessary, I couldn’t use such a forceful method. Otherwise, the public would think 1 was crazy.

However, it was not as if there was no breakthrough at all. At least, the Evaria Family was not as united as they had thought. Some wanted to rise to the top in one step, and some wanted to do their best to protect the family’s lifeline, such as the former Earl of Marlowe, Morton Cletti Evaria.

This old man had undoubtedly made a fatal mistake of disloyalty to the monarch, but who could stand in his position and calmly put righteousness before family?

This was no ordinary mistake but a rebellion and treason. Once committed, the crime would be unforgivable. The result of placing righteousness before the family was likely to be the annihilation of the entire clan. What kind of loyalty was worthy of such an ending?

As the one who held the scepter, 1 naturally expected my subjects to be completely loyal. However, as someone who was no different from the rest of the world, I knew that sometimes, loyalty was a form of torture to human nature.

Therefore, Sir Evaria could not find a better way out. He could only remain silent and question his inner loyalty while painfully watching his family walk toward an irredeemable impasse.

If it weren’t for his father’s respect for this old official who had dedicated his entire life to the Lycan pack, the Evaria Family would not have been exiled so easily.

At least I could still trust Sir Evaria. He was a smart man. He knew the royal family didn’t exterminate his family because they would never be respected again. However, once this matter was brought up, he would understand which was more important; saving a few people or everyone.

Thus, 1 sent a message to Sir Evaria, who was retiring in the countryside, asking about the illegitimate child’s descendants. He didn’t go through a serious process to avoid alerting the enemy, not everyone would accept failure.

As I expected, Sir Evaria quickly replied, “So far, Sisley is indeed the only remaining descendant of the Evaria Family with royal blood. His biological father passed away shortly after the Evaria Family’s defeat.

The funeral before the migration had been held for him, and Sisley was guarding her father’s new grave.

It turned out that the man had been in poor health since birth. As the technology was not so advanced decades ago, he was born with a deficiency as a test-tube baby and had been filled with drugs since he was young.

The Evaria Family feared that this rare treasure would die prematurely, so they had been hiding and caring for him carefully. Even within the family, few people knew of his existence.

However, this person was destined not to live long, so the Evaria Family placed their hopes on the next generation, hoping to create a new ‘heir’ through experiments. However, there were only two successful cases; Sisley and Sunflower.

He was healthy, not born weak like his father. To arrange a legal identity for him, the Evaria Family lied that he was the child of an insignificant family member.

As a result, although he knew that his parents weren’t his real parents, he never knew who his real father was, let alone whose grave he was guarding.

At this point, the mystery of the bloodline was clear.

As two infertile children, the sins of the elders would completely end in their generation.

I was half relieved, but Sir Evaria’s answer surprised me.

As the only person with mind control decades ago, the dead man never stepped out of the room for his entire life.

His happiness, anger, sorrow, joy, life, old age, sickness, and death were all restricted to a few square meters. Not to mention the Golden Bell Pack in the distance, he had not even taken a step out of the Evaria Family’s settlement.

But if it wasn’t him, who else could have done it?
