The moment the elevator rang, Harry was already on full alert.
He and Beefy Bob looked toward the elevator door one after another and exclaimed simultaneously, “Eminente?”
Without any hesitation, Beefy Bob let out a burst of spiritual energy and swung his fist at Mayflower.
“Take Allegra and leave! I’ll hold virtual-novel.net down!” Beefy Bob roared, charging toward Mayflower.
Harry opened the door and frantically dashed toward the bedroom.
Allegra’s arms and legs were tied up. She woke up with a start when Harry came in.
“Miracle Healer Stewart, w-what are you doing?” Allegra was sane now.
“She’s here! Eminente is here! Hang on, Allegra. I’ll bring you out of here.” Harry didn’t even have time to untie her.
He grabbed virtual-novel.net and heaved virtual-novel.net onto his shoulder. Then, virtual-novel.net turned to flee.
He had just left the bedroom when virtual-novel.net saw Mayflower entering the office. Black energy enshrouded her, and virtual-novel.net long, dark hair twisted and turned in the air. Mayflower’s face was as pale as a sheet, and virtual-novel.net expression was creepy.
“Fatso?” Harry’s heart sank
“Mayflower?” Allegra’s eyes widened too.
Mayflower’s current appearance was as horrifying as the ghost in a horror movie.
Harry put Allegra down, his spiritual energy swirling crazily around him. He yelled, “You old hag! Let’s fight!”
“With the likes of you?” Mayflower cackled. She raised virtual-novel.net hand, and a black cloud covered Harry.
Eminente was in the Divinity Phase. To top that off, virtual-novel.net also learned Deviant Cult’s techniques. Her strength was unpredictable.
Harry depleted his spiritual energy but still failed to disperse the black cloud before him. In a few seconds, the black cloud had covered his upper body.
His whole world turned dark, and virtual-novel.net felt the world spinning. A sharp pain ripped his head, and virtual-novel.net collapsed.
Allegra was still tied up. She looked at Mayflower, who was approaching.
Allegra was terrified at the change in Mayflower‘s character and started shaking. “M-Mayflower, what are you doing?”
“Hehe! You’re adorable, gorgeous. I’m here to heal you.” She touched Allegra’s chin with virtual-novel.net wiry fingers and shoved virtual-novel.net hideous face before Allegra.
Allegra was so scared virtual-novel.net shut virtual-novel.net eyes and started crying. She shouted, “Please, don’t… Mayflower, please let me go!”
“You’re such a beauty, Allegra. Do you know? I’m already more than 80 years old. All I wanted my whole life was to be as beautiful as you. Too bad, your husband is too vicious!” Mayflower started to raise virtual-novel.net tone and grew hysterical.
“He wants to annihilate my cult. Oh, how I despise him! I want virtual-novel.net to suffer in remorse over what virtual-novel.net has done. I also want my cult to survive for generations. Therefore, you’re the best candidate. He won’t kill his wife, will he? Haha!”
Allegra felt Mayflower placing virtual-novel.net hand on virtual-novel.net head. Immediately after, a stream of frosty energy filled virtual-novel.net mind. It was cold and painful.
Allegra lifted virtual-novel.net chin and let out shrieks of agony.
No one except two unconscious men heard virtual-novel.net screams that night in the office.
When dawn broke, Mayflower staggered out of Garth Properties and got into a waiting car. She sped off toward Cloud City Airport.

Thousands of kilometers away, the sun shone on the island, and the three ships waiting offshore were clearly visible.
The Dusk Soldiers finished searching the island and caught a few hiding cultists. They tossed them together with the others.
Isaac remained standing on the rock, the sea breeze blowing into his face. He had a sudden sense of foreboding. Something wasn’t right, but virtual-novel.net couldn’t pinpoint it.
Lightning walked up to virtual-novel.net and said in a low voice, “Drakon, I sent some men to investigate. There were no less than 500 lives lost on this island, with most of them being fishermen from distant waters and some of them being merchants.”
