Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 2123

She scooped the ashes into her hands, attempting to identify which ones belonged to Boye and Grandpa. However, there was dark-colored dust and ashes everywhere in the castle's ruins. She could no longer

tell them apart.

Baby Zetty curled up on the ground while crying out heart-wrenchingly.

In the end, she used her pair of slender and beautiful hands to desperately move those collapsed walls. She wanted to try and gather the ashes nearby. She wanted to fulfill Mr. Boye's last wish and return to Sacred Land with her and Grandpa's ashes.

Baby Zetty pried away one of the rocks and suddenly discovered several colorful hard beads lying under the rock. She was astonished and could recall from the books she read that some people would end up becoming relics after death. However, this phenomenon often occurred only when an anchorite died in a praying posture.

How did Boye and Grandpa end up as relics as well?

Baby Zetty did not look further into it. She quickly gathered all of the relics around and prepared to leave. 1

However, there was the sound of footsteps rushing

over in the distance.

Baby Zetty hurriedly hid behind one of the dilapidated walls. The sound of footsteps gradually grew closer, and she saw a group of people wearing demon masks coming near the ruins.

One of the men wearing a black wolf mask raised his hand and said, "Boye is a cunning woman. Back then, her mother had used the same trick to slip from our hands, thoroughly deceiving us and rescuing little Boye in the process. Boye must have repeated her mother's old tricks as well. I heard that she had been quietly staying inside this castle for the past few years, so it's very likely that she's been devoting herself to teaching the art of healing to her last disciple. All of you keep a close lookout for me. This time, we mustn't let another Boye descendant escape our grasp."

The subordinate next to him said, "Don't worry, Master. We're in full control of everyone in this village, so even if Boye has an apprentice, it'll be impossible for them to escape."

The man in a black wolf mask landed a slap across his subordinate's face and scoffed. "Not just humans, arrest all of the living creatures around. We must never allow a single Boye descendant to have a chance to survive."

Baby Zetty was so terrified that her heart began to throb. She had never experienced such fright while she was all alone ever since she was a child. At this time, she could not help but think about how it would be great if Brother Finn were by her side.

Baby Zetty looked at the demons that were increasing i n numbers, akin to weeds that were invading a desert. They were now surrounding the entire village, making it air-tight without a single room to escape. Baby Zetty forced herself to calm down. She had to find a way to break free. She could not allow herself to fail to meet Boye and Grandpa's expectations of her.

When she thought of it that way, Baby Zetty suddenly became braver.

She stealthily picked up a medicine box from the secret pocket room and moved outside one step at a time.

"There's a sound coming from over there." Someone with sensitive hearing suddenly heard Baby Zetty's almost inaudible sound.

Baby Zetty immediately dashed away.

"Hold it!"

Everyone else tried catching up to her.

"Master, it's a young girl, and she's a pretty one to boot."

"She must be Boye's successor. Haha! I wonder where you're running off to this time?! Chase after her and make sure you get her for me."

The ruined castle was akin to a maze. Baby Zetty ran for her life inside the labyrinth, and fortunately, there was still some sturdy experimental equipment inside. Some surviving earthen jars had fallen to the ground, but the medicinal powder inside was not completely contaminated.

Baby Zetty gave it a thought. She knew she had to use despicable means to deal with those demons. She started fleeing for her life while collecting medicinal powder at the same time. When she confronted some of the men who had caught up to her, she immediately attacked with the poison powder. However, countless people were chasing after her at this time. Under extreme desperation, Baby Zetty plunged into a narrow pipeline and crawled along the pipe.

"She got into the pipeline! What should we do?"
