Cassidy was caught off guard by the chains, and imdiately let out a frenzied roar, trying to break free from the chains on her body.
Scarlett Jennings saw the demon energy around the young girl almost entirely shrouded in black corruption, which drove her into a berserk state, making her formidable strength sothing Scarlett dared not relax against in the slightest.
The spell in her hand remained unwavering, as spiritual power gathered towards Scarlett’s fingertips, and with her growing spiritual power, the spiritual light on the chains also intensified.
The chains tightened, and Cassidy suddenly couldn’t move.
Just as Scarlett thought she had completely subdued her, the black demon energy around the girl suddenly converged at one point. In the next second, from the gap in the chains, a bear paw transford by demon energy broke through and fiercely clawed in Scarlett’s direction.
Samuel Chalrs furrowed his brow and was about to pull Scarlett back when she remained unperturbed, her hands unmoving but double tails ford instantaneously behind her.
Snow-colored fox tails shot out from both sides, tightly entangling the bear paw ford by demon energy. At the sa ti, the tip of the fox tail emitted a golden light, gradually purifying the black demon energy from the bear paw.
Samuel was montarily stunned and instinctively glanced at a certain spot on Scarlett’s chest, but he said nothing and swiftly stepped forward, his fingertip glowing with golden light, touching the center of the girl’s forehead.
The simultaneous purification made the black corruption around Cassidy quickly dissipate.
And at the mont her demon energy returned to normal, Cassidy seed unable to hold on any longer and with a bang, transford on the spot into an immature bear cub.
Scarlett took the opportunity to remove the spirit light chain from her body, and the bear cub imdiately collapsed on the ground, as if it had lost all its strength.
Cassidy’s parents hurried forward to support their daughter.
"What... what is going on here?"
Cassidy’s mother looked at her demon sprite painfully, then turned her gaze to Scarlett and Samuel.
Scarlett casually took out her Mystic Regulation Office ID,
"The Mystic Regulation Office and the Security Bureau are conducting a joint investigation. Your child may have had contact with an evil demon, and we need to take her back to the bureau to assist with the investigation."
Hearing that their daughter’s anomaly was related to an evil demon, Cassidy’s parents’ expressions changed, ready to protest, but the grandaunt beside them angrily interjected,
"Take her! Take her back to the bureau right now! If you can do this to your own kin, who knows what kind of conspiracy you have with the evil demon behind the scenes!"
The grandaunt clutched her own young demon grandchild. After the recent incident, the little bear cub was already terrified, trembling all over, with none of the previous arrogance left.
Hearing the grandaunt’s words, Cassidy’s parents’ faces turned dark,
"Grandaunt! What do you an by this?! How could our Edith be in league with an evil demon? You are making baseless accusations!"
"If it weren’t for your kid Mingji deliberately causing trouble and provoking our Edith, she wouldn’t have had this outburst!"
Scarlett and Samuel had originally planned to follow the trail of demon energy to find out who was behind the love letter, but as soon as they reached the apartnt entrance, they clearly sensed an abnormality in the demon energy upstairs.
There wasn’t enough ti to climb the stairs, so Samuel used instantaneous teleportation to bring her up directly.
Looking down at the ss in the room, although there had been a fight earlier, the various rchandise and posters torn and broken on the floor and walls were clearly not just the result of the fight.
Combining her parents’ words, Scarlett roughly understood what had happened.
Just a mischievous kid from a relative’s family, whether human or demon clan, everyone has them.
She just didn’t expect Cassidy to be so provoked by the mischievous kid’s antics that it triggered the corruption within her; she wasn’t sure whether to be thankful or resigned.
She notified the Mystic Regulation Office on her phone, interrupting the elders’ bickering,
"Except for this immature bear, the others present, especially the bear cub who had contact with her, also need to co with us."
She reminded the bear parents beside her, "If you need to report loss or claim compensation for the condition of this room, it can also be handled when you arrive at the Mystic Regulation Office."
Reminded by Scarlett, Cassidy’s mother imdiately realized, "Right! We still need to report this to the Mystic Regulation Office for compensation!"
Even though Cassidy had said not to worry about the money before, why shouldn’t they?
That kid had skimped a lot of pocket money from the family to buy these celebrity rchandise, so they must be compensated!
At most, after getting the compensation there, they could pay for their child’s dical expenses.
With the situation reaching this point, they weren’t afraid to break ties with their kin anymore. The group was quickly taken to the Mystic Regulation Office.
Cassian Wolf hadn’t expected Scarlett and Samuel to uncover another demon affected by corruption so quickly.
And like with Tai Hei, it was still a young demon sprite.
Recalling the previous investigation of the case involving kidnapped young sprites, Cassian finally confird that all their previous suspicions were true.
Ghost Fog snatched young demons for experints, and only immature sprites could successfully process and absorb the corruption.
Therefore, Ghost Fog targeted the young from the demon clan, and the Capital tropolitan’s gathering place for underage demon sprites was the Academy of Mystique.
"We just questioned Cassidy the Bear Demon and her family, and she has no idea when she was contaminated by the corruption, nor has she ever co in contact with the body of Brock Whitley."
This ans she was unknowingly trapped, and the demon hiding in the Academy creating Brock Whitley’s body disappearance was soone else.
And it has already been three months since the last abduction. If soone really is hiding in the academy, using unknown thods against the young sprites, Cassidy is definitely not the only one affected.
Unfortunately, the clues given by the evil demon from the earlier abduction were too few. The Mystic Regulation Office couldn’t even recognize what demon energy affected by corruption looked like.
This ti, the matter unexpectedly depends on that individual.
Oh, and on Scarlett.
"The primary task now is to identify the demon sprites in the academy that may have been affected by the corruption. Otherwise, if these sprites have sudden outbursts, it will cause great chaos within the academy."
Cassian spoke in an unusually serious tone, and Scarlett was aware of the severity of the issue. She pondered for a mont and replied,
"This corruption lurks within the sprites and is imperceptible under normal circumstances. To identify the affected sprites, we may need to employ so drastic asures."
Stimulate them, for instance.
Hearing this, Cassian simply said,
"The Academy of Mystique is now fully under Lord Chalrs’ control, so whatever ideas you have, you can present them directly to him."
He referred to Samuel.
As the founder of both the Security Bureau and Mystic Regulation Office, Samuel held authority over both organizations. Once he decided to enter the academy as a Demon Master, the Academy of Mystique fell entirely under his control.
His arrangents, even Cassian, as their leader, had no authority to challenge.
"As a mber of the Mystic Regulation Office, I’m granting you autonomy in your actions. Regardless of what thods are employed, you must assist him in purging the academy of all demon sprites affected by corruption. The Mystic Regulation Office will be on standby to assist you at all tis."
His final words were directed at both Scarlett and Samuel.
Samuel naturally had no objections and turned to look at Scarlett.
Since she had brought up the subject just now, surely she must already have an idea in mind. He asked,
"What drastic asures do you plan to use?"
