I am the daughter of Count Laurien.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Viktor sat on the chair, his eyes carefully examining the girl before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her etiquette was flawless, and her attitude was very respectful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she seemed about the same age as Aurelian and Erica, she exuded an unusually mature temperament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps that had something to do with the upbringing of a count's family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Viktor supported his face with one hand as he looked at her, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As the daughter of a count, coming to see me at this hour.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you want?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he also glanced at Gwen sleeping on the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The effect of the hypnosis was excellent. This sleep would allow Gwen to rest peacefully until dawn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His meaning was very clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the daughter of Count Laurien, sneaking alone into the room of a man who already had a fiancee late at night...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that man was a newly arrived guest. The two sides were not even familiar with each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coming to his door like this, it would be strange if there was no problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Priscis sensed Viktor's suspicion. She clenched her hands together tightly, her expression stiffening slightly, looking extremely conflicted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stayed silent for a moment before finally speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know about you. You are a very powerful mage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only you… only a powerful mage can help me. I hope you can help me.\", She spoke very anxiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am willing to give anything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that, Viktor sat up a little straighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a scrutinizing look in his eyes, he carefully observed Priscis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling his somewhat invasive gaze, the girl gently closed her eyes, yet allowed Viktor's gaze to wander freely across her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that so?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Viktor's voice sounded again, calm yet carrying a hint of amusement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Priscis's body trembled slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She opened her eyes again, her face slightly red. Her red eyes looked like ripe apples being slowly crushed, squeezing out a few drops of tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she still nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Y… yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am willing to pay any price.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Viktor looked at her, his face completely expressionless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaning back in the chair, he asked calmly, \"Tell me what you need help with.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Priscis quickly said, \"Please save my mother.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She has been locked in a room by my father, Count Laurien, and he won't let her leave even half a step.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If this continues, she will die in that room.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She pleaded bitterly, her emotions becoming extremely sorrowful. Her brows furrowed slightly. This time it was not from hesitation, but from begging for salvation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Priscis's body grew weak. All the strength in her body seemed to be draining away, and she was almost about to collapse to her knees before Viktor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her emotions nearly burst out along with her words, and tears flowed from her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please… please help me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corner of Viktor's mouth lifted slightly, revealing a teasing expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can help you. But right now, I have one condition.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Priscis nodded immediately, as if grabbing onto a life-saving straw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I… I can agree!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then, let me see your legs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Viktor's words made the crying girl freeze on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W… what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed she had never expected Viktor to say something like that. Her tear-stained face stiffened, and for a moment she could not react at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Viktor slowly stood up and stared seriously into Priscis's eyes, speaking word by word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lift your dress and let me see your legs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That aggressive pressure made Priscis step back a few steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately afterward, the magical power around Viktor suddenly erupted and tore open the black dress covering the lower half of the girl's legs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rip!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fragments of the black dress were torn apart by magic, revealing Priscis's hollow lower body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There should originally have been a pair of legs there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, it looked transparent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beneath the dress, there was only a pair of black boots standing on the ground, as if they were supporting her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Priscis's face instantly turned pale. She hurriedly fell to the ground, clutching the torn dress and trying her best to cover her legs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it was already too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Viktor was already staring at the girl in front of him with a gaze full of danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice sounded cold and merciless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As expected. How could a normal person be restricted by the random magic trap I set up?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as the words fell, roaring flames suddenly ignited around Viktor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Towering flames spread like waves of the sea, forming pillars of fire in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But these flames did not ignite anything. They only burned the surrounding air until it became scorching hot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The searing temperature began to sting Priscis's skin, and the blazing firelight reflected on her pale face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Priscis, who had been crying moments ago, now had fear appearing in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She instinctively began avoiding the flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flames would not burn her, but the heat would.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scorching temperature turned into something like poisonous snakes wandering around her body. The burning heat made Priscis feel as if she were suffocating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her lungs seemed to be tightly squeezed by a pair of high-temperature giant hands. Only intense burning filled her lungs and throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air grew scorching hot, making it impossible for her to breathe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Viktor placed both hands in his pockets, and flames burned along his windbreaker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fire behind him seemed to transform into a ferocious beast, licking the dry, restless air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surrounded by flames, he remained as calm as ever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His feet stepped on the blazing fire, and fiery light burned at the corners of his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet deep within those blazing eyes flowed endless coldness, like solid ice wrapped in flames, burying even the scorching air in chill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Coming to disturb my wife and me in the middle of the night.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His calm voice gradually sounded, mixed with the collision of heat and cold, making it seem somewhat chaotic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm very curious.
