"Hurry up. Search."
Mia immediately lunged toward the enormous safe.
No key was needed.
For a succubus who had spent years navigating the gutters, a physical lock like this was a mere toy.
"CLICK."
The safe door sprang open.
"Whoa..."
Mia gasped in amazement.
Inside, a dozen or so thick ledgers were neatly stacked, along with a pile of letters sealed with wax.
The envelopes were prominently stamped with Baron Hector's family crest, as well as a personal seal in the distinct style of the Imperial Capital.
This was the ironclad evidence Velin wanted most.
Besides these, at the very bottom of the safe lay a black-covered manual: *Records of Plague Liquid Purification and Mutation Experiments*.
Next to it was a small, lead-lined box.
Mia carefully opened it a crack.
A wave of extreme cold spilled out.
Inside lay three vials of a silver-gray liquid, within which countless tiny, wailing faces seemed to float and sink.
"Black Abyss Mercury!"
