"Damn it!"

Nash suddenly felt weak and started plummeting straight down. Just before he hit the ground, a mysterious person grabbed him while another caught the woman. The two figures walked in unison into an alley.

...

When Nash opened his eyes again, dawn had not yet broken. He found himself inside a building. Walking to the window, he gazed out at the bustling streets of Gorgeous Country.noveldrama

Nash tried to recall the recent events while holding his head. A young man sitting nearby spoke up, "How rude of you."

Nash turned sharply. He had not noticed the young man at all.

"Who are you?"

The young man said in a tone that sounded far older than his years, "No, no no. What you should be saying to me is thank you."

The young man maneuvered his wheelchair closer to Nash. It was then Nash noticed the young man's legs were disabled.

He continued, "Hey, did the fire burn your brain? Say thank you!"

Nash suddenly remembered Theo and the woman. "Theo! And that woman! Where are they now?"

"Thank me first, then I'll tell you."

"Thank you!"

Hearing this, the young man clapped his hands.

Then, Ronan entered the room, followed by the woman and a robot carrying the still-unconscious Theo on its shoulder.

Ronan said, "The woman is fine now, but Mr. Skye's condition isn't looking good."

Nash hurriedly checked on Theo. "There seems to be no issues... His vital signs are stable... His soul... is intact... But why..."

The young man wheeled up to Ronan, and Ronan affectionately patted his head. "Good job. It's tough controlling so many puppets." "It's not tough at all, hehe."

The young man, Rylan Florentine, was the youngest child of the Florentine family. Due to his physical disability, the family did not hold him in high regard.

Ronan had been imprisoned by the

Florentine family until Gale and Gab

struck a deal that freed him. Gale then used his connections to send his two brothers to companies under Gorgeous Country's Dominion Commerce.

Before leaving, Gale split the secret scriptures he had taken from their home into three parts, keeping the ultimate killing move for himself and giving the other two parts to his brothers. Fortunately, these parts were basic and did not involve life-draining techniques.

Ronan gathered power in one hand, a scene that looked identical to Gab absorbing power. However, Ronan was merely checking Nash's body. He then crushed the flames still burning within him. This was the original technique of the Florentine family, used for healing others' true energy.

Nash felt immediate relief. "Thank you. May I know your name?"

"Ronan Florentine. This is my brother, Rylan. He's a bit mischievous, so I do apologize."

"No need to apologize. I'm grateful to both of you for saving my friend. But why hasn't he woken up?"

Ronan shook his head. "What we

can confirms that your friend has no physical issues. As for why he hasn't woken up... Unless we can perform a comprehensive

examination, it'll be hard to pinpoint the reason."

"In that case..."
