"Madam Goddard, these are your favorite foods," Nellie said softly.Deborah's lips moved slightly. "I don't have an appetite. Take it away."Setting the food down, Nellie walked over to her. Using telepathy, she told her, "You'll definitely eat today because I just got a call. It was from Felix. He used someone else's phone to call me."What? Deborah sat bolt upright, her gaze sharp and piercing. "What did you just say?"Nellie was startled by her reaction."I wouldn't dare lie to you, especially not about Felix. I'm not sure how he escaped from Echo Cavern, but he's alive. That much is certain, and I've already confirmed it. It was definitely him."At that, Deborah grabbed both of Nellie's arms tightly. "When… When is he coming back?""Felix said he needs to handle something very important while pretending to be dead. Once it's done, he'll come back to see you. He asked me to tell you but also to keep it a secret. Don't let anyone else know."Tears of joy welled up in Deborah'

"Stop overthinking. Are you hungry? Let me cook for you," said Ophelia.Felix nodded. He was more than just hungry. After months of surviving on fasting pills, he hadn't had a real meal in ages. His craving for food had only intensified.Half an hour later, Felix was devouring the meal ravenously while Ophelia watched him with a beaming smile."By the way, Ophelia, why are you in a place like Ghosttown?" he asked between bites.He wasn't worried about her safety. After all, her strength was indisputable. To be honest, even though he had reached the Transcendent Realm, he still couldn't gauge the true level of his fellow apprentices' abilities. Each had mastered different skills, making it even harder to deduce."I like it here," Ophelia replied with a grin. "I've killed plenty of scum, and now my reputation keeps most trouble away. Life here is peaceful and free, unlike the city. It's too complicated there."Fair enough. The city was full of tangled power struggles where "killing

"Probably," Ophelia said with a shrug. "Mr. Hoffman only mentioned that the Three Forbidden Lands could be helpful to you. He wasn't too sure about the specifics. He's too busy, so he sent me to help you explore them."Felix was startled. "Ophelia, don't tell me… you've already been to all Three Forbidden Lands?"When Ophelia nodded, Felix was stunned. The Three Forbidden Lands were places people in Martial City feared to even talk about, yet she had gone to all of them and returned unscathed. It was hard to believe."How else could I gather information for you? Look at you, acting all surprised. Honestly, Naomi would've been better suited for this task, but she couldn't give up on her dream of helping her village prosper. So here I am."Felix chuckled bitterly. His fellow apprentices really went above and beyond for him."Still, the results weren't bad! I can't guarantee everything, but I'm quite proud of one thing. I've figured out the correct order to visit the Three Forbidden

"You little brat! Have you finally remembered your mentor?" Deborah asked.When he heard her voice, Felix felt his nose sting with emotion. Unlike his other mentor, who showed love in a more reserved manner, Deborah was completely open about her affection. While the result was the same, the feeling was undeniably different."I'm sorry, Madam Goddard. I was planning to come see you right away," Felix said.Deborah's condition worried him, especially after his perilous journey to the Echo Cavern, one of the Three Forbidden Lands. Surviving such a place was a miracle in itself, and asking him to recount the experience seemed unnecessary. After all, no one would willingly venture there unless driven by insatiable curiosity or the lure of treasure."I'm doing much better now, so there's no rush. If you really care, though, why don't you focus on fulfilling the promise you made instead?""Promise?" Felix frowned. "I'm not sure I understand, Madam Goddard."The next moment, Deborah's

Zayn looked visibly displeased. He had never seen Felix before, but he trusted the reports from his subordinates. Felix had definitely entered Echo Cavern, so what was going on now?After separating from Nerissa, Felix turned to Wilson, clasping his hands in respect. "Mr. Xavier, I greet you. I've come today to formally propose marriage and to select the best date to marry Nerissa."Wilson was momentarily stunned, struggling to process what was happening. He even began to wonder if all the talk about Echo Cavern was a joke. Otherwise, how could Felix still be alive? "So, you're the Felix mentioned in the marriage contract?"Felix nodded with a smile. "That's correct. I've come to honor that prenuptial agreement."Before anyone could respond, Zayn's voice cut through. "Westley Xavier, who arranged that prenuptial agreement, hasn't been seen in quite some time. Do you really think that agreement still holds? Even if you miraculously survived Echo Cavern, do you think you're worthy
