Chapter 73

However, the contract she was looking for was not there.

Leshan, after rummaging through useless documents, stared at the safe beneath the desk. It was her first time in the study and the first time seeing the safe, but she felt like she knew the combination.

Click. Leshan entered her birthday.

To be precise, it was the date Marquis Ephekl had first celebrated her birthday: October 14th.

The safe opened, but there was no contract inside. Instead, there was only a torn corner of a document. Leshan grasped the scrap of paper and read the signature on it.

“Kapu Shuaisen…?”@@novelbin@@

Why would Marquis Ephekl place such a seemingly insignificant scrap in the safe?

Nevertheless, anything kept in the safe was important to Marquis Ephekl. Perhaps this could be useful later to sway him.

Clutching the scrap of paper tightly, Leshan returned to her room. Then she met Darcy, which led her to where she was now.

As I listened to Leshan's story, I realized that the name “Kapu” written on the contract felt oddly familiar.

“Where have I heard this before?”

As I slowly recalled my memories, I thought of a person Ethan had mentioned once.

A magician.

Kapu.

The name matched one of the wizards Ethan had talked about and the name Marquis Ephekl had kept in his safe. A chill ran down my spine.
