The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection
Billionaire With Husband 785

Chapter 785

In one fluid motion, the figure gripped the sheep's head with one hand, its body with the other, and effortlessly tore it in half. Blood poured everywhere as the figure began gulping down the blood and devouring the raw meat. This scene took Felix aback. Even the most ruthless criminals wouldn't consume raw flesh and blood like this.

The creature ate with frightening speed and finished the entire sheep in about ten minutes. If not for the blood and wool on the ground, it might have seemed like a dream.

"Damn it. I need to see what's really going on here." This horrific scene had piqued Felix's curiosity to the max. Since humans were involved, this definitely needed some investigation. He followed the sheep thief a short distance until they disappeared into a cave, after which all went quiet. At this point, Felix hesitated before reaching for his phone to contact Xena, Despite his abilities, he did not want to risk alerting whatever might be in that cave.

The headquarters' special phone maintained a perfect signal even in these mountains. Just as he was about to dial, he stopped. Another figure had appeared after a while.

In the moonlight, Felix was shocked to recognize Ralph, who slowly entered the same cave. Is Pine Valley somehow connected to all this?"

Without further hesitation, he called Hope first and told her to hide somewhere safe. He then called Xena. After hearing Felix's account, Xena realized the gravity of the situation. "A blood-drinking creature? Felix, don't do anything rash. Keep observing!"

After consideration, Felix suggested, "I could investigate by disguising myself as the village chief. They won't notice me, and I won't alert them."

Xena was skeptical. "Are you sure? There are many unknown elements in Dragonia. You're strong, but there could be more powerful beings inside."

True, but Felix had the Shadow Mask. "Trust me, I know what I'm doing. I'm a Dragon Knight now, so you know how I operate."

After a pause, Xena agreed, "Fine, but you're only allowed to check out the situation. I'll to headquarters and bring reinforcements." About 20 minutes later, Ralph emerged from the cave. As he neared the bottom of the mountain, Felix intercepted him. "What? Didn't I forbid leaving the village at night?" Ralph questioned.

Felix sneered. "Drop the act."

After pricking him with three silver needles, Ralph soon confessed everything. The real village chief had been assassinated long ago. This impostor merely looked similar, and no villager dared question him. Chapter 785

The fake Ralph did not know what was happening in the cave. His only job was to report any outsiders or unusual activities in the village. He had come tonight to report Felix and Hope's arrival.

"You deserve death." Felix almost killed him but remembered his current position. Instead, he knocked the impostor unconscious so Xena could handle it.

Felix put on the Shadow Mask and the fake chief's clothes. His bones crackled as he transformed to perfectly match the impostor's height and build. No one could tell the difference between him and the fake Ralph.

As he approached the cave, Felix felt a familiar sensation. It reminded him of when the members of Polaris and John had experimented on those children in another cave.

"I hope I don't see anything like that again." Upon remembering those children's fate, Felix felt his inner demon stirring up.
