The Charismatic Charlie Wade

“You’re spot-on!” Maria’s voice flowed confidently through the phone to Alder. “I will head to the southern province, so I’d better go now!”

Puzzled, Rose inquired, “What’s the reason for your journey to the south?”

Maria let out a soft sigh and replied with a touch of melancholy, “Young Master, ever since Pu’er mother failed to survive and my family left the southern province, we’ve never returned for the past two or three hundred years. Morgana has set up a trap in the southern province, just waiting for me to fall into it. Morgana’s main mansion is probably in a state of silence now. Even if she still has informants in the southern province, they must have withdrawn to the central government or halted their investigations. This is the perfect moment for me to return!”

Concerned, Rose warned, “Miss Clark, please don’t take this lightly! You mean much more to Morgana than you realize. If you go back and she still has a trap set for you, you’ll be in grave danger!”

Maria smiled and said, “Young Master, you don’t fully understand Morgana. If you did, you’d know that she’s extremely cautious, especially around non-core members. If she were to enter the southern province, all the members of the Warriors Den stationed there would surely withdraw in advance. Right now, she probably has more than twenty different routes to reach the southern province within an hour. As a result, the entire southern province is likely to be a vacuum zone for the Warriors Den.”

Curious, Rose asked, “What is your plan for going to the southern province, Miss Clark?”

Maria’s voice turned sad. “My family… I wish to pay my respects at my father’s grave. We once buried my father’s clothes on a mountain near my grandmother’s house as a decoy for Morgana. His actual ashes lie in a place only my family knows.”

However, if we do meet her, as long as she doesn’t recognize us, we might be able to find the place where she and your father learned with Morvel Bazin as their teacher through her. Lately, I’ve come to feel that the ‘Apocalyptic Book’ and the ‘Preface to the Apocalyptic Book’ are somehow related to my parents and perhaps to Morvel Bazin as well. If I can find things or records related to him, it might shed more light on what happened
