Luna's small face was filled with anxiety as she grasped Aelia's hand, her soft voice trembling slightly, "Mother, the Magic Castle... it can't go on like this!"
Her tiny hand opened to reveal several yellowed Letters and a few items carrying a hint of Cedar Fragrance that appeared before Aelia's eyes.
These were pieces of evidence that Luna had quietly gathered using her extraordinary mental power—proof of Leonard's correspondence with his Concubine!
At first, Aelia was somewhat bewildered; she couldn't understand why Luna was so anxious until her gaze fell upon the Letters.
The Fire Seal on the envelopes was Leonard's exclusive Emblem!
She trembled as she picked up one letter, the familiar Tiny Inscriptions coming into view. The sappy Love Words within felt like sharp knives, piercing her heart mercilessly.
"This... this can't be..." Aelia's voice broke as she struggled to believe that the man who once whispered promises of eternity in her ear had betrayed her!
As more evidence was revealed, Aelia's complexion grew increasingly Pale, a wave of uncontrollable anger burning within her.
Her body began to tremble slightly, the Letter in her Hand crumpling under her grip.
"Leonard!" Aelia spat out his name through gritted teeth. She suddenly stood up, disregarding her appearance, and stormed out with fierce determination.
Seeing this, Qin Si hurriedly followed, worriedly calling out, "Madam! Where are you going?"
"To seek justice!" Aelia replied without looking back, her voice as cold as if it had come from the depths of hell.
In the study, Leonard sat upright, engrossed in reading a Magic Scroll, completely unaware that a storm was approaching.
“Bang!”
The door to the study was flung open, and Aelia stormed in, slamming the letter from In Hand down forcefully in front of Leonard.
“Look for yourself! What is all this?” Aelia's voice trembled as she struggled to control her emotions, but tears streamed down her cheeks uncontrollably.
Leonard was taken aback by the sudden turn of events. He looked up and saw Aelia's furious expression, his heart sinking.
He picked up the letter and, after just a glance, his face turned pale.
“Aelia, let me explain. It's not what you think…” Leonard attempted to defend himself, his gaze flickering nervously and his tone betraying his panic.
“Explain? How do you plan to explain this?” Aelia's voice rose an octave as she pointed an accusing finger at Leonard. “These letters, these things—are they all fake? Tell me who that woman is! What do you take me and this Magic Castle for?!”
“I…” Leonard opened his mouth but found himself at a loss for words.
He knew that in the face of such undeniable evidence, any defense would be utterly futile.
At that moment, urgent footsteps approached; his older brother, Second Brother, and Brother San all rushed in.
Upon learning what had transpired, they were filled with outrage at Leonard's actions.
The eldest brother leaned on his cane; though he moved with difficulty, he stood firmly behind Aelia.
He looked at Leonard with cold eyes and said in a low voice, "Father, we have always respected you, but this time, you have gone too far!"
Second Brother recalled the pain he had suffered due to the Magic Dilemma and felt even more intolerant of Leonard's actions.
He stepped forward and accused, "Father, how could you do such a thing? Do you think of Mother? Do you think of us?!"
Brother San also abandoned his usual neglect of training, filled with righteous indignation as he said, "Father, I always thought you were an upright person. I never expected you to be like this! You must give Mother an explanation!"
Faced with the questioning from his three sons, Leonard was left utterly speechless.
He slumped into a chair, as if aging a decade in an instant.
He knew that he had truly angered everyone this time, and it seemed impossible to turn things around.
Aelia looked at Leonard in this state, but her anger did not diminish.
She coldly said, "Leonard, I will ask you one more time, who is that woman?!"
Leonard remained silent for a long time before finally lifting his head slowly. His gaze was complex as he looked at Aelia and said, "She... her name is..."
"Enough!" Suddenly, a clear voice interrupted Leonard's words.
Luna had appeared in the study without anyone noticing. Her small face bore a hint of seriousness as she walked to Aelia's side and took her hand.
“Mother, there are some things that are not meant to be known just yet,” Luna said softly, her gaze deep and mysterious, as if holding endless secrets.
Aelia paused for a moment, looking into Luna's clear eyes, and suddenly felt an inexplicable trust welling up within her.
Taking a deep breath, she nodded and replied, “Alright, I’ll trust you.”
Luna turned to Leonard, her expression unreadable.
After saying this, she took Aelia's hand and turned to leave the study.
This left Leonard alone in the darkness, his expression shifting between uncertainty and contemplation.
“Luna, you…” Aelia said, looking at Luna with confusion. She didn’t understand why Luna had stopped her from saying that woman’s name.
Luna smiled slightly and replied, “Mother, some things need to be approached step by step. Being too hasty can backfire.”
“What do you mean?” Aelia pressed.
Luna didn’t answer directly; instead, she smiled mysteriously and said, “Mother, trust me. Everything will turn out alright.”
She paused for a moment, lifted her gaze toward the depths of the Magic Castle in the distance, and softly added, “The real show is just beginning…”
