Their lives hung solely on his whim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The head of House Windwhisper's face turned ashen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He fully understood the meaning behind Daniel's words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I… as the head of House Windwhisper, am willing to offer up all of our family's assets to Crossbridge Academy. I will also lead by example… and take my own life. All I ask… is to leave a single bloodline for House Windwhisper. I will seal their memory and ensure they never return to Riverside City or appear before Crossbridge Academy again,\" he said, voice heavy with resignation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the only option he could see — a choice born from desperation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Were there any other way, he would never sacrifice his family so completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Very well.

Afterward, we'll go to the city and turn over House Windwhisper's remaining assets…\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Closing his eyes, he waited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though his eyes were shut, he could still hear the sounds of each of his family members collapsing to the ground, one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tears flowed from his eyes, tracing lines over his weathered face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the consequence of his actions, but the entire House Windwhisper would bear the cost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a sinner, the one who had brought ruin upon House Windwhisper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the last body fell, the head of House Windwhisper turned to Daniel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's go. We're heading to House Windwhisper.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he swiftly made his way toward Riverside City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel turned to the others from the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rowan, take some of the students and go to House Lunastone. Bring all of their assets back to Crossbridge Academy,\" he ordered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" Rowan replied, though he was still in a daze. Snapping out of it, he responded and led a group toward House Lunastone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although House Lunastone's mages had been killed by Daniel's magic, a massive family would still have many who weren't mages or weren't directly part of House Lunastone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Rowan and his group arrived at House Lunastone, they found it in chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A large family like that would naturally include some who were not of House Lunastone by blood but were mages associated with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Crossbridge Academy members surrounded the estate, and Rowan set to work apprehending any mages attempting to loot or flee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the midst of this, Nora spotted a familiar face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Teacher Loren… is that you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loren had once taught potion-making at Crossbridge Academy, so Nora recognized him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, Loren had been a patient teacher, respected and admired by all his students.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But… he had been the first to leave the academy following the old headmaster's sudden death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He'd declared his new allegiance to House Lunastone, reaping substantial benefits, and even encouraged other teachers to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Loren's efforts that had pushed Crossbridge Academy close to the brink of closure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, despite the old headmaster's death, the academy would have continued easily, as long as there were teachers and students.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The teachers had all been at Crossbridge Academy for years and considered it home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with Loren's persuasion, several teachers had been lured away by the two houses, throwing the academy into a dire situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loren had played a key role in the betrayal, exploiting his connections and knowledge of his colleagues' struggles to tempt them with promises of better opportunities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In House Lunastone, seeing Loren again, Nora's feelings were complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On one hand, Loren had been a good teacher, dedicated in his lessons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in dismantling Crossbridge Academy, he had been just as relentless, as if he held a deep grudge against it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, Nora! How have you been? I heard Crossbridge Academy managed to recover and even hired a new potions teacher! That's wonderful,\" Loren said, smiling as if he had forgotten his betrayal of the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Nora's expression was cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why did you do it back then?\" she asked flatly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loren's smile froze, and then he replied, \"Because… they had leverage on me, so I had no choice. But just now — did you hear? The mages of House Lunastone, they're all dead! That means I'm free of their control!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now I can return to the academy. I don't even need to teach — just living there, even doing odd jobs, would be enough for me… Nora, you have no idea what I've gone through here!\" Loren's expression grew pained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stepped closer to Nora.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nora, could you tell me… how things have changed at the academy since I left…\" he began, but his words were cut short as a potion appeared in his right hand, uncorked and ready.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nora, my dear student, forgive me, but I have to leave. With House Lunastone's mages mysteriously dead, I took the chance to grab a trove of rare potions. Given enough time, once I escape Riverside City, I'll be a potions master! Although I'm not sure what happened, I assume House Lunastone's plan to destroy the academy failed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can't stay here. I need to leave immediately. Goodbye, Nora. Your teacher will miss you,\" Loren muttered to himself, readying a spell with his left hand and aiming it at Nora.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Nora dodged, her mana surging as she bound Loren in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Teacher Loren, you look utterly fake when you lie,\" she said coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment her words ended, the binding released, and Loren's lifeless body fell to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After her training in the semi-divine artifact, Nora had come to recognize the insincerity behind Loren's words instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If it were the old me, I might have believed you,\" she murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But things had changed now, just as Crossbridge Academy had become something new.\u003C\u002Fp>",1285,"2026-06-06T15:56:16.255Z",1,"novelbin.me","07eb959a91a58ea6549ae3a9ef5a0c5fb2681d0484e4a44cb6009fe3f8ba70b6","imprisoned-for-a-trillion-years-i-was-worshipped-chapter-59","imprisoned-for-a-trillion-years-i-was-worshipped-chapter-57",734,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fimprisoned-for-a-trillion-years-i-was-worshipped-cover.jpg"]
