Remorse After Breaking Up

Chapter 295

Bruce slightly panicked in the face of Sebastian's confrontation.

He replied, "Larry was poisoned because he experimented with pills and various herbs in his youth. As for his expulsion, that's a highly classified matter within the Sanders family.

"I'm not at liberty to reveal it to you. Stop dwelling on these past matters. I'm sure he wouldn't want you to dig into this."

Sebastian fell silent. He had known for a long time that Larry was poisoned and had asked about it more than once. However, Larry had never revealed anything to him.

Even before his death, Larry repeatedly urged him not to pursue the matter. Sebastian understood that Larry didn't want to put him in danger.

But then again, Larry was a member of the Sanders family from Phaedra Island. Even though he had founded the Supreme Nexus, it seemed insignificant compared to the colossal power of Phaedra Island.

Despite Larry's warnings, Sebastian couldn't shake the need to uncover the truth. He could sense that Bruce was lying.

Larry's medical skills were extraordinary, so the poison must have been something disastrous. It was clearly not an accident.

Sebastian was confident Bruce wasn't telling the whole story. But now, pressing Bruce further seemed pointless.

"By the way, I have something to show you," Bruce said with a mysterious smile spreading across his face. He opened a hidden compartment and took out a small box.

When Bruce opened the box, a piece of amulet made of white opal lay inside.

Sebastian's eyes widened in shock and disbelief.

"Mr. Sanders, does this Ninefold Griffin Amulet hold any significance?" Sebastian asked, his heart racing.

The amulet looked identical to the two pieces stolen by Merlin. More specifically, it looked exactly like how those two pieces fit together to form one complete piece.

In other words, the two amulets stolen by Merlin were a single piece of the Ninefold Griffin Amulet before being split.

Bruce explained, "It's said that there are nine pieces of the Ninefold Griffin Amulets, and together, they hide the secret to the Perpetual Empire."

"The Perpetual Empire? What's that?" Sebastian asked, though he had heard some rumors about it.

"The Perpetual Empire is a paradise where one can attain immortality and gain unimaginable powers.

It's a place everyone dreams of entering," Bruce said, eyes filled with longing.

"Does the Perpetual Empire really exist?" Sebastian pressed.

"It does," Bruce replied firmly, leaving Sebastian astonished.

Sebastian had always thought it was a legend, at most, a treasure. But now, learning that the Ninefold Griffin Amulets he knew about were just part of a larger whole, his perspective shifted.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Bruce continued, "I'm sure it exists because over a century ago, an ancestor from Phaedra Island entered the Perpetual Empire and returned. In just three years, he achieved an unparalleled level of Realm."
