Chapter 1417: Chapter 1415: Blood Moon (57)
When Ronan returned ho to the Old Port District, Delores was still in her dreams.
In the master bedroom, under the lamplight, she tightly embraced the quilt, a hint of post-passion blush lingering on her beautiful face, making her appear extrely enchanting in the light.
Ronan took off his outer clothes, quietly slipped into bed, and pulled the beauty into his arms.
His heart was filled with joy and peace, and he felt imnsely comfortable.
His mind was completely clear.
The asures he left on Shaquinn Piel and Rudolf Herbert weren’t ant to instantly kill or capture their souls; they were to take effect bit by bit in the days to co.
The more these two noble offspring enjoyed themselves, the more stimulated their brains would get, and their ntal awareness would beco increasingly frenzied.
Until one day, when they surpassed their own limits, that would be when…
Neither Shaquinn Piel nor Rudolf Herbert would even know how they died.
Moreover, even the most skilled forensic doctor wouldn’t be able to detect any issues and would just attribute it to sudden natural causes.
After all, many play themselves to death.
This thod cannot be used against a Transcendent because a Transcendent’s inherent power will instinctively repel invading Spiritual Energy, allowing for a direct assault but not silent sabotage.
Shaquinn Piel and Rudolf Herbert were just ordinary people.
In Ronan’s mind, they were already decaying skeletons!
Two days later, Gustav Rein summoned Ronan to his office.
The events of the past days hadn’t altered Ronan’s lifestyle; he continued attending classes at the academy daily.
But he was completely isolated within the academy.
Not to ntion his peers, even the teachers were unwilling to approach him.
For fear of getting entangled in trouble.
At the dean’s office, Gustav Rein instructed his curvaceous secretary to make coffee for Ronan, as usual.
The dean of the Kingdom’s Higher Police Academy, and a Garrison Brigadier of the capital, also took out a box of cigars from the drawer, personally trimming and lighting one for Ronan.
Showed great respect.
Ronan did not reject this gesture of goodwill from the old Earl.
In fact, this kindness stemd from his own strength!
“I have provided a detailed report of your situation to the higher-ups.”
Gustav Rein said solemnly, “The Departnt of Internal Affairs conducted an investigation and confird that the situation is largely accurate.”
Invia’s Departnt of Internal Affairs is an important departnt directly under the royal cabinet, holding significant power and its own ard forces.
Similar to the FBI in Ronan’s forr life in the grand United States.
Ronan did not expect that his matter would alarm the Departnt of Internal Affairs, giving him a new assessnt of the dean’s influence.
He continued to listen as Gustav Rein said, “The initial handling result is now…”
Shaquinn Piel is expelled and ordered to return to Northland, not allowed to co to Seles for three years.
The specific handler, Senior Investigator Clent, is demoted to a regular officer, unable to be promoted for three years. anwhile, his imdiate superior, a supervisor at the General Police Bureau, resigned due to this incident.
Additionally, the Herbert Family, to which Rudolf Herbert belongs, is willing to offer Ronan a nominal compensation.
Gustav Rein placed a cash check in front of Ronan: “If you have any thoughts or objections, you can tell now, and I’ll report upwards.”
Ronan glanced at the check, noting the amount was 1000 gold pounds.
This compensation was not low, but it carried a slight hint of disdain.
The renowned Herbert Family clearly did not care much about Ronan and was unwilling even to impose a symbolic punishnt on their offending mber.
Ronan calmly put away the check: “I have no objections.”
Now that Rudolf Herbert’s life expectancy was in countdown mode, the length of his survival depended entirely on his lifestyle.
Since the Herbert Family offered a thousand gold pounds in compensation, Ronan naturally acted a bit magnanimous.
“Then the matter is settled.”
Gustav Rein breathed a sigh of relief, then handed over another docunt: “Sign here, please.”
His biggest worry was that Ronan would be unforgiving and refuse to accept the Departnt of Internal Affairs’ resolution, escalating the situation further.
It appeared Ronan was quite asured.
The dean of the Higher Police Academy’s impression of Ronan improved even more.
Ronan reviewed the docunt and, confirming no issues, signed his na on it.
“Thank you.”
He politely expressed his gratitude to Gustav Rein.
Ronan originally thought it would take ten days or more to see a conclusion, not expecting such prompt resolution.
Gustav Rein undoubtedly played a role in this.
A significant role, indeed!
Ronan held no negative views of the Lionheart Earl.
“You’re welco.”
Gustav Rein waved his hand: “Being a citizen of the kingdom, you should be protected by its laws. Frankly, even without your incident, soone like Shaquinn Piel should have been expelled long ago.”
His words were filled with disdain and contempt for the northern barbarians.
“By the way,”
Gustav Rein said, “if you have any issues in the future, just co to directly. If I’m not at the academy, then I’m definitely at the Garrison Army Headquarters.”
Gustav Rein held Ronan, a young transcendent, in high regard.
He even entertained the thought of integrating Ronan into the Rein Family.
Perhaps through marriage.
Ronan’s background was entirely unimportant.
In fact, a young person with a clean background was ideal for revitalizing an ancient family with new blood.
If he hadn’t harbored such thoughts, Gustav Rein wouldn’t have intervened so actively in this matter, pushing for a thorough investigation from the Departnt of Internal Affairs.
Of course, given the extensive and deep backgrounds of Shaquinn Piel and Rudolf Herbert, Gustav Rein could only do so much. Beyond that, it wasn’t a question of capability, but of worthiness.
He felt that Ronan should be satisfied with the outco.
A thought crossed Ronan’s mind, and he imdiately said, “Dean Rein, I’d like to ask you sothing.”
After hearing Ronan’s request, Gustav Rein, the Lionheart Earl, was montarily puzzled.
After a mont, he responded, incredulous: “Did you just say you’re an Alchemist?”
“That’s right.”
Ronan placed two revolvers he carried—Knight and Ranger—before Gustav Rein.
“These are my latest alchemical creations.”
What Ronan inquired about was quite simple, rely asking if the dean knew any channels for trading extraordinary equipnt.
To learn and master alchemy, Ronan had spent most of his savings, leaving not much left.
So, he needed to sell so extraordinary equipnt to recoup funds!
Yet, this seemingly “simple” request profoundly shocked Gustav Rein!
