Chapter 790

"Good day to you, Lord Hugh. It's urgent, and I need to verify something. Please forgive my intrusion! Do you know a young man named Felix Zeller?" Cairo asked.

Hugh laughed and said, "Are you talking about Felix, our Dragon Knight from headquarters? Of course, I know him. I treat him like my own grandson. What's the matter?" Cairo drew in a sharp breath. He had considered many possibilities but hadn't expected Felix to have this level of connection. He treated Felix like his own grandson?

"No... it's nothing. Please rest well." After hanging up, Cairo looked uncomfortable, coughing twice before saying, "Dragon Knight, since you have a mission to complete, you should hurry along. Don't delay it." Nodding, Felix left. Despite his frustration, Aiden could not intervene further and could only watch the car disappear.

"Aiden, that young man has deep ties with Lord Hugh. There's nothing we can do." Though retired, Hugh could easily take down the Tideborne Warlord if provoked.

Aiden's expression darkened; he knew this Frost Crystal was beyond reach now. Once submitted to headquarters, even his extensive connections could not retrieve it. They would have to search elsewhere. t

But finding one proved they weren't extinct, and there was still hope.

Back on the road, Felix breathed a deep sigh of relief. Fortunately, Mira had anticipated such situations and arranged things with Hugh. She was worried Felix might face bullying at headquarters. Who knew it would prove useful so quickly? Without that, he would have had to surrender the Frost Crystal. And with Hugh's intervention, Cairo would not dare investigate whether Felix actually turned in the Frost Crystal to headquarters.

After reaching Gray City, Felix rushed to the manor that hosted the Obsidian Auction. Of course, he used the Shadow Mask to maintain his previous disguise.

"Have you found the Frost Crystal?" Wayne and Ross were shocked. They had expected Aiden to find it first instead of this mysterious man, who claimed he was master healer. "Yes, why else would I return?"

Once it was confirmed, Ross was overjoyed. He didn't care who found it as long as it could cure Dane.

"If there are no issues, I'll begin treatment," Felix said.

Two full hours later, Felix emerged. "He'll wake soon."

About ten minutes later, Dane, who had been unconscious, walked out looking completely

energized.

"Dane, how do you feel?" Ross asked.

Dane flexed his hands, smiling. "Better than ever Ross, thank you for your efforts."

Truthfully, Felix wished he could kill Dane, the wanted criminal, but it was not possible here." Can we complete the trade now?" Felix asked.

Wayne nodded, and someone brought the Dragonspine out.

"Done. I'm leaving!"

While watching Felix leave, Dane licked his lips and said to Ross, "Let's go too."

Standing there, Wayne could easily guess what would happen next. Though the manor had many exits, anything was possible with Dane's great power.

"Is that ungrateful man going to betray his life's savior? Dane is truly a despicable one. Let's see if that mysterious man has fortune on his side."
