Chapter 1009
“Evil never dies easily.nPlease do everything you can. I’m heading to the Balkan Underworld immediately p>
Mira Mercer didn’t try to stop him. Anyone would be frantic if their sister went
missing.
“What about back in Mavaria? Natalie might not have crossed the border yet.” “My parents are handling things back home p>
After Mira sorted out Harvey Rivers’s situation, she went back to sleep. She needed to conserve her energy; there was still a lot of work ahead.
As a leader, maintaining emotional stability was a mandatory discipline. She had to remain stoic, ensuring her feelings didn’t jeopardize their progress.
Neither of them ate lunch, sleeping straight through to the afternoon. Master Ellis and the guards did the same, all well-versed in preserving their stamina.
By late afternoon, the inn manager couldn’t wait any longer. He ran over and knocked on the door. “You… you didn’t leave p>
“Why would we leave p>
Owen Lance asked.
“You’re completely fine p>
Manager Warren’s eyes widened in shock.
“What did you expect? That we’d just let you manipulate us p>
Mira asked.
“Should we post the video of Manager Warren drugging his guests’ food online? That way, everyone will know never to stay at this inn again,” Mira said with a sharp smile.
“No… don’t. Wait, how… how did you know p>
Warren panicked.
“Did you really think we’d travel without any precautions p>
Mira pulled out her phone and played the video of him tampering with their meals.
“How… how do you have this p>
“That’s none of your concern p>
Mira shot him a disdainful look.
“Spill it. Why did you come looking for us p>

Mira walked over, locked the door, and secured the deadbolt.
With a heavy thud, the manager collapsed to the floor. “It wasn’t me… I didn’t want to do this. Mishka took my son and threatened
me Please, have mercy! Spare
my he, have a whole spel.ne
family to feed… please p>
Mira had thought Warren was a tough guy. She hadn’t expected him to fold so
quickly, completely ruining the challenge.
Well, this made things easier.
“I already gave you a hundred
thousand dollars. If you had just helped us a little, we would have paid you handsomely, But it seems you prefer the hard way.nDort, honey. Kill him p>
Mira said purposely.
“Your wish is my command, my lady p>
Owen immediately stood up, raising the blade as he approached.
“No, please, no p>
Warren turned deathly pale, and Mira caught the distinct scent of his terrified accident.
“I’ll talk! I’ll tell you everything. I’ll share every secret I know.nJust please spare my life.nFrom now on, I’m your loyal servant p>
“Start talking, then. Let’s see if your information is worth the price of your life?” Owen drawled.
“Wait p>
Mira pulled out a small packet and looked at Warren. “Do you know what this is p>
Warren had a sinking feeling. “Drugs… narcotics p>

“Oh, I forgot to m
narcotic. This is Veritas Serum, the upgraded version of your Oblivion Drops.nonce you take this, you’l spill every single truth hidden in your minda nif you dare bide anything, and I find out using the Veritas Sérum, you’re dead p>
“But if you kill me, you won’t make it out of here either p>
Warren stammered, desperately trying to add value to his life. Mira pulled out another packet. “Do you know what this one is p>
