Chapter 225 Odalys listened quietly , her response a mere Ummm But during the first explosion , Stellans father must have been injured .
But in the second explosion .
I noticed a flash of golden light was it the talisman Freyas voice trembled with curiosity .
Yes Freya , overwhehned , nearly hurst into tears .
Odalys , can you give it to me ? I want one tool The urgency in her voice was palpable , as if the talisman could solve everyili Not now Odalys replied , her tone calm .
I dont have time to draw one at the moment .
By the way , is Francis with you ! Freya instinctively glanced at Francis , nodding .
Yes , hes with us ? Tell to stay with you for the next three days .
Dont let him leave your side .
I have some matters to attend to .
Once Im back , you can come find me Odalys instructed .
Freya quickly relayed the message to both Selah and Francis .
Alright , Ill get back to you soon .
Odalys gave a short nod and hung up the phone ..
Just as she did Orson rushed over with his phone , his voice low and urgent .
Odalys , have you seen the trending news ? What trending news ? Odalys asked , slightly puzzled .
She wasnt one to keep up with the internet , and while she occasionally checked gossip , she wasnt reliant on it .
The CEO of the Drake Group had a car accident .
Its unclear whether hes dead or alive , Orson said , his voice tense paused for a moment , then connected the dots .
The Drake Group CEO must be Stellans father .
I know she replied indifferently .
The news is all about you .
Theyre saying you did a divination for Stellan on your livestream , and now everyones wondering if it has something to do with the accident .
Odalys simply waved him off , unaffected .
Dont worry about it .
Lets head into the village Orson blinked in disbelief .
Wait , shes not even reacting ! Shes trending all over the place , and shes not fazed step He shook his head in disbelief , but Odalys was already walking away , heading toward the village without a second thought .
Percival fell into si beside her .
The tension in the air was palpable as Orson watched them .
He expected someone to be thrilled by the attention , but Odalys seemed completely unbothered .
They were still talking about it on the way back after recording , Orson mumbled to himself .
Even some journalists followed them .
They witnessed everything , and now theyre backing up Odalys predictions .
Callum , noticing Onsons fixation , grabbed his arm and pulled him along .
Odalys is a person of importance .
A little trending topic wont shake her .
We need to focus on the matter at hand .
This village is off , and were here to investigate , not gossip .
With that , Callum drew his weapon and quickened his pace , making sure to stay close to Percival and Odalys .
Orson , reluctantly snapping out of his reverie , followed suit , his phone slipping back into his pocket .
As they entered the village , an eerie silence enveloped them .
The village felt strangely deserted , as though every door had been shut tight .
Then , a blood curdling scream shattered the stillness , followed by the thudding sound of someone running .
Rafael appeared , drenched in blood , stumbling out of a building Seeing Odalys , Jur rati against the ground .
straight toward her , collapsing at her feet .
I know I was wrong , please , save me he pleaded , bowing and knocking his head .
Odalys watched as blood continued to seep from his body , her i r eyes narrowing slightly in surprise .
Did someone poison you ? she asked suddenly .
1/2 6:25 PM c Chapter 225 Rafael frore , staring up at her in confusion , as though she had struck a chord deep within him .
Odalys stepped closer , her voice steady but piercing .
Is it true that every month , you feel ill chills , fever , and sometimes even fainting ? Yes Yes , Rafael stammered , his confusion growing .
And after you faint , all your symptoms disappear , dont they ? she pressed , her gaze unyielding .
Rafaels eyes widened .
Yes … Yes , thats right He hadnt expected Odalys to know about this .
Rafael stared at her , a flicker of fear creeping into his eyes .
Why had she come back after the rest of the crew had already left ! And those figures trailing behind her men clad in expensive suits , exuding an air of wealth and power what was she up to ! Rafael thought .
Odalys observed him closely , her voice low and chilling Youve been poisoned .
Every month , you suffer from the poison , and someone comes to give you an antidote after you faint .
Thats why you always recover , right ? Rafael recoiled as though struck .
No , thats impossible .
It cant be true ! he shouted , desperately shaking his head .
Odalys didnt flinch .
How is it impossible ! Youre here because youve committed murder , and now they have something on you .
Theyre using you to guard this village , making sure no one gets too close ! Rafaels body trembled as he staggered backward , his eyes wild with fear .
You cut the tendons of those villagers , didnt you ? After that , you became the village boss , bullying anyone you could find .
On a whim , youd beat them up .
and they were too afraid to leave .
But thats not all , is it Odalys continued , her voice calm but cold .
Rafaels face went pale .
But Odalys wasnt done .
You had a girlfriend once , didnt you ? You sold her off to save yourself , and she died the very next day .
You didnt even care , did you ? Youre going to just let yourself rot here , knowing that youll never leave this place alive ! Rafaels body shuddered as if her words had pierced him to the core .
He paused , his feet rooted to the ground .
Odalys took a step toward him , her voice steady , You stole Sophias clothes .
But you never forced her .
If you wanted to , you couldve , but you didnt .
Do you know what youre doing to yourself ? Odalys eyes locked onto his , a knowing gleam in them .
Youve been brainwashing yourself , thinking you can keep pretending .
But youre not fooling anyone not even yourself .
Rafael took a step back , panic flashing across his face .
Who are you ? he screamed .
Odalys voice was calm , like a force of nature .
Do you know how your girlfriend died ? Rafael froze , unable to respond .
Odalys gestured to the old house ahead .
Thats where it all began .
