The First Heir Chapter 5188
Mark was quite a good actor. He quickly entered his role as if something had really happened at home. Custard stood as if he was thinking over Mark’s words. “If you want to cure someone, you can just buy a healing pill at our store and get it done." Custard took a step back and slammed the backyard door shut. These people were so bad at acting that it was difficult for them to deceive anyone. Since Philip had reminded him to stay on guard, Custard employed the same attitude to any strangers. Mark could not believe his luck. The kid did not give him a chance at all! Since his plan failed, Mark decided to grab the kid by force. “Come out from your hiding. We need to think of a way to get this kid!” Now that the kid had been alerted, it would be more difficult to get him next. In the meantime, Niffler decided to find another way to achieve his goal after wandering for a while. It was almost impossible for him to cause trouble in Cosmo City on his own. In that case, he sh
The First Heir Chapter 5189
Niffler had outgrown his use, so his existence was no longer meaningful. Scarlet had found a new target. When she first entered the city, Scarlet had gathered a lot of information. It was rumored that the mayor of this city preferred beautiful women and would bring them into the mayor’s residence. However, the masses quickly refuted this unfounded gossip. Many people felt that this rumor was untrue and respected their mayor very much. The person who leaked the news had rotten eggs thrown at him and had to run away. However, Scarlet felt something off about this. As an experienced person, Scarlet knew there had to be a reason for this rumor. Since someone mentioned it, something must be up. Scarlet followed her memory and found the man spreading the rumors. He had been beaten quite badly and was tending to his wounds. He was startled by Scarlet’s sudden appearance and quickly dodged. Scarlet comforted the man, “Don’t worry, I’m not here to make things difficult for you. I wa

Although Alton acted as if he was greeting everyone, only he knew his purpose. As Alton said hello to everyone, he saw a woman selling potatoes on the side. The woman was very pretty and dressed modestly, very vibrant. She was none other than Scarlet in disguise. Scarlet had met Alton several times before, so she had to put on an act. As a customer of Treasure House, Scarlet had bought many camouflage pills. It was all thanks to them that she could change her appearance. Otherwise, people would have noticed her long ago. Alton was pleasantly surprised to see such a beautiful woman. The last beauty who caught his attention was Noelle from Treasure House. Due to Philip, however, Alton did not express his admiration and simply treated her as an ordinary person. Nonetheless, prolonged interaction made him uncomfortable. It was difficult to control his desire when he could see but not touch. “Young lady, why are you selling potatoes here all alone?” Alton stepped forward curiously
The First Heir Chapter 5191
Alton could hardly refuse the request and quickly agreed. “No problem, we have a lack of maids in the mayor’s residence anyway. Just follow me.” Alton’s pretentious attitude made it impossible for anyone to discover his true nature. Scarlet knew that her plan had succeeded. The two of them left with their own agendas. The onlookers praised the mayor and thought he was the best man in the world. He was even willing to take the woman in as a maid to take care of her livelihood. Everyone cheered and applauded Alton. Alton smiled triumphantly and knew that his plan was a complete success. The two of them quickly hooked up, and Alton was very satisfied with Scarlet. Alton even had the illusion that this was his true love. With Scarlet's practice during this time combined with the pills she purchased from Philip, Scarlet’s level had reached greater heights. It was easier for her to control Alton now, but the duration was limited. Faced with the waves of spells, Alton had comple

Alton was surprised that his son did not attend his classes but came here to ruin his fun instead. Cosmo sneered and said, “The commotion you made attracted my attention!” Alton felt frustrated at Cosmo’s sarcastic retort. “Whatever, I’ll just blame it on your youth and ignorance. Don’t say such things again. You should return to your classes right now!” Alton waved his hand in dismissal. He still doted on his son. “Give me the woman inside,” Cosmo said. Alton was startled and turned to Cosmo in disbelief. “What did you say?” Cosmo stared at his father steadfastly and repeated his request with emphasis, “I said, give me the woman inside.” Alton was furious. Not to mention that he was already obsessed with Scarlet, even if she was just a tool for him to vent, she was not someone his son could touch! “Get out of my sight!” He smacked Cosmo and sent him flying. Cosmo looked at his father angrily. He had never suffered this treatment before. “Don’t say such things a
The First Heir Chapter 5193
Scarlet nodded obediently. Seeing that, Alton hardened his resolve and left. Soon after that, Cosmo barged into the room. He held a dagger in his hand and wanted to cut this woman into pieces. He simply wanted to kill this woman when he asked for her earlier. While Alton was away, Cosmo wanted to get it done. Alton usually targeted ordinary women with little to no practice ability. As a practitioner, it was easy for Cosmo to kill someone. In fact, he could have killed this woman by stealth, but to fake a scenario of the mistresses competing for favor and killing each other, he decided to use the crudest method. Scarlet stared in disbelief at the man who suddenly barged in and quickly recognized him. Before Scarlet could say anything, Cosmo rushed over with a dagger and stabbed her in the heart. An ordinary person would be dead under that attack. Scarlet quickly dodged to avoid the attack. As both were practitioners, the chase went on for a while. “You're actually such a p
The First Heir Chapter 5194
Scarlet was surprised that everything went so smoothly. This father and son were so gullible. Scarlet was also proud that the trap she set caused conflicts among many people. “Let’s see what you can do next, little guy.” Scarlet smiled as Cosmo left. She took another pill to ensure her appearance remained unchanged. She could only gain the trust of others by maintaining this appearance.… Meanwhile, Alton found Mark. At first, he thought he would let Mark take charge, but he was so slow that Alton was getting impatient. “Have you taken any action? Why haven't I heard anything?” Alton questioned Mark unhappily. “If you can’t get it done, let someone else do it!” Alton snapped so fiercely that the domestic staff cowered in fear. Mark sighed and told Alton what happened the other day. At first, he wanted to take this opportunity to capture Philip’s alchemist. Not only did he fail, but he also alerted the enemy. His men were keeping watch at the door but saw no signs of the othe
The First Heir Chapter 5195
Before Alton’s arrival, Mark had sent someone to report the situation to Alton, but it seemed he had not heard of it yet. “As a last resort, I plan to break into the yard and capture the kid by force. That’s the only hope we have. What else can we do if the kid refuses to leave the house?” Everyone discussed the plan and finally made an important decision. They would kidnap the kid by force. The kid was just an immature teenager and would not understand these plots and grudges. If they could not lure him out, they could use some special means to trick him into joining them. The discussion slowly shifted to talking about their children. “Try and talk to Cosmo nicely. He’s a good kid. Maybe he’s just feeling rebellious. If that doesn’t work, we can think of something else. It’s a mental health issue that has to be addressed in time,” Mark advised Alton in a roundabout way as if he knew something. Alton was puzzled by Mark’s odd remarks. “What exactly do you mean? Just spit

Meanwhile, backstage at Moon Tavern, the waiter was telling the woman singing on stage earlier about what had happened in the private room. The woman was full of disbelief, thinking the waiter was lying. “Don’t try to bluff me. How could anyone resist my attack?” The woman wore a veil on her face and looked very mysterious. Only the woman knew how disgusting she looked when she was not performing or casting spells. Covering her face was the best choice. The waiter told her what happened and described the state Philip and the others were in earlier. Although two people were affected, it was a problem because one person had remained conscious.They would face a lot of problems if other people discovered their tricks. The woman's tricks were extraordinary. Even a powerful person with superb strength would find it difficult to get rid of her attack. These so-called strong experts would only end up falling for her trick. At this time, the storyteller went on stage, and he was t

Philip nodded. “Do I have to order something else?” A hint of realization flashed in Philip’s eyes. He realized what was going on. The woman had the ability to bewitch the customers by affecting their thinking and emotions through singing and inducing them into spending money. She exuded a special charm to attract the customers even though she looked ordinary. In their minds, she was an unattainable goddess. Everyone saw a different woman in their minds but charming nonetheless, tempting them to spend money on her even though it would cost them all their fortune. However, Philip was different. He could control his emotions very well, so this woman had almost no influence on him. He realized this problem when he first heard that mysterious song. The waiter scowled and finally left the private room in horror after much deliberation. Philip did not say anything at his hasty departure. The woman quickly left the stage after playing her zither, and the bewitched customers

“Something is wrong. I find that woman a little weird.” Hearing that, they were curious to find out how Philip concluded that. “Although she’s not that good-looking, I don’t think she’s weird. What do you think is wrong with her?” Carlos said in puzzlement, wondering why Philip felt that this woman was weird. “The woman seems to have a fatal attraction to the male customers. It’s a scary ability to make these men flock to her.” It was weird that a woman with average looks could attract so many men. No one would believe that she had a strong appeal. “Welcome to Moon Tavern. I’ll be singing a song for you today. I hope you like it.” The woman's delicate voice rang, and everyone felt relaxed and happy. Even Philip felt that this voice was very charming, like the sound of nature ringing in his ears. However, Philip was not a fool. He keenly sensed something wrong with the situation. Nothing would be charming enough to attract him. For it to happen meant that something was wro

“Give us three pots of tea. We don’t need anything else. Thank you.” Philip did not order anything else. In his opinion, he was just here to find information, so his money should be spent on things that mattered the most. The waiter rolled his eyes at the order and seemed to look down on Philip. “Customers, are you sure you only want a few pots of tea? We have many snacks too,” the waiter said in disdain. Carlos was more concerned about his image, so he was shocked by the waiter’s obvious disdain. “Yes, we only need a pot of tea each. We want to have a taste first.” Adam's attitude was much better, speaking with a friendly smile on his face. Even if the waiter was angry, he could do nothing about it. The waiter left cursing under his breath. He thought that they were big customers, but they did not even give him a tip. Philip glanced at the waiter helplessly. Even waiters were so arrogant nowadays. Philip and the others were quickly served three pots of tea. The pots

Philip was not afraid at all. He knew that someone would target him, but they were just losers. They might be influential, but they were nothing in his eyes. He did not want to cause trouble, but it did not mean he would let anyone insult him. Philip and the others quickly found a tavern that looked quite high-end. “This place looks interesting.” Philip found the various decorations quite novel and knew it would not be cheap. “I don’t think it’s so easy to find any important information here. Just look at the customers and you’ll know that we’ll spend a bomb,” Carlos marveled at the price tag. Adam looked at the menu curiously and was quickly surprised to see how expensive it was for a pot of tea. “A pot of tea costs thousands of crystals?” Adam almost had a meltdown at the price. “Look at the requirements stated on the menu. Each person has to order a minimum of a pot of tea. Anything less than that and we’re not welcomed.” Adam shook his head helplessly and suddenly

“It’ll take a long time for this little fox to become a human. I think you would've found your other half before that happened.” After exchanging some pleasantries, Philip bade farewell to the shopkeeper and left without further ado. They had to hurry up to find the person Adam was looking for.… Meanwhile, Luther hurried back home unhappily. He never dreamed that he would suffer such humiliation one day. As soon as he returned home, a man greeted him. It was none other than his father, who doted on his son. “What's wrong?” He was surprised to see his son ignoring him. His son was always flashy and arrogant, so his behavior was quite unusual. Luther was in no mood to pay attention to his father. He returned to the room angrily without saying a word. “Guard, what’s going on? Did someone bully my son?” Luther's father, Klein, glared at the guard unhappily, blaming the guard for everything. The guard kneeled in fear and felt sorry for himself. “The young sir was brows

The shopkeeper was clearly relieved by Philip’s remark and direct approach. However, he was also embarrassed by Philip’s bluntness. He smiled at Philip awkwardly as an apology. “Why don’t you recommend a pet for my buddy? It should be a stronger one, preferably a combat type!” Philip glanced at Carlos. He knew that Carlos was too embarrassed to take the initiative. Carlos looked at Philip gratefully, letting out a shy chuckle. The shopkeeper recommended several pets to them. Carlos was dazzled by the sight and wanted them all. Adam looked at the scene with satisfaction. Although he had a high position, he did not have a decent pet either. It was difficult to have a pet in their world. With a wave of his hand, Philip generously bought a pet for each of them. At this time, Philip heard a whine from somewhere. He turned his head curiously and looked for the source of the sound. “What’s that noise?” Philip looked at the shopkeeper in confusion, unable to find the source of

Luther was at a loss for how to react. If the rabbit could speak, it had to be stronger than his pet. Although his pet was very powerful, it was just an ordinary creature that could understand some basic instructions and handle normal interactions. A talking pet was simply to die for. “Wow, how can that monster pet speak? It’s a force to be reckoned with.” Luther was shocked to see a talking pet. It was enviable to have such a powerful monster. Before this, he mocked the rabbit for not having any ability, but the tide had turned. He was almost going crazy with jealousy and wished that he could take the rabbit for himself. “I didn't bring my pet along, so I’m afraid I can’t show it to you. Losers like you don’t deserve to see my pet.” Luther acted full of snobbery and disdain, but he clutched his purse awkwardly. In fact, not only did he bring his pet out, but he had also been ready to show it off at any time. After all, his pet was very powerful and could grow bigger or sma

Philip was annoyed by the guy’s ridicule and simply wanted to keep a distance from him. “I don’t care who you are. I don’t want to pay attention to a loser.” After saying this, Philip could not wait to leave this disgusting place. He felt sick at the sight of the guy’s ugly face. Carlos lost the mood to watch the fun. He shook his head helplessly and turned around to leave. However, that guy was used to getting his way. He did not plan to let them leave in one piece. Anyone who offended him had to die. “Surround him. Don’t let him run away!” The man glared at Philip with disdain, sure that Philip would die. Philip was quickly surrounded by a large group of people. They were angry that Philip dared to go against their boss. “Who are you? Where did you come from? How dare you disobey our boss? Didn't he tell you to stop?” a guard yelled angrily. He was clearly a competent lackey, loudly accusing Philip as if he was going to stand up for his boss. “What are you looking at?
