I'm an antique shop owner, so it's reasonable for me to know some magic

Chapter 488

The sudden arrival of the three caught Ron completely off guard.

Upon realizing that it was Theresa standing in the middle, Ron instinctively felt guilty and lowered his head slightly.

But if she looked up slightly to check Theresa's expression, she would find that the latter's gaze, after initially sweeping over her and Su Fan, immediately locked onto the porcelain bowl on the table.

Alice's gaze darted back and forth between Su Fan and Ron, her mind already conjuring up an intimate scene between the heiress of a wealthy family and her super bodyguard.

The only two who seemed normal were Jamie and Su Fan, who was looking at him.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Su Fan paused slightly.

"It seems this trip has changed you quite a bit."

From his perspective, Jamie's body emanated a faint, ethereal aura.

Judging from the mass that has escaped, Jamie now has the qualifications to challenge evil spirits to a certain extent.

If he had a suitable mentor, and could be placed back to when he first encountered Mary Shaw a little over a year ago, he wouldn't have felt so powerless.

A lot has happened, but it might be a bit boring for you...

Jamie smiled somewhat awkwardly.

"I'm sorry, I never let go of my obsession in the end."

"It doesn't matter."

When Su Fan warned Jamie, he believed that if Jamie continued to cling to his guilt over his deceased wife and kept getting involved in paranormal events that he couldn't handle, he would harm himself.

He just didn't expect that this stubborn and bold young man would go against the grain, stick to his convictions, and eventually hone some skills.

"sit down."

Su Fan lightly lifted his finger, and the three chairs opposite him pulled out on their own.

"You've come at the right time. I made way too much. Would you like some?"

"Yeah."

Theresa, who answered first, immediately sat down next to Ron and greeted him.

"What a coincidence, Miss Mayfair. Are you also here to discuss something with Su Fan?"

"Yes, yes... but we've already said almost everything."

Theresa's harmless smile made Ron feel as if an arrow had pierced his conscience.

"Are you leaving? Why don't we sit and chat a little longer? I'd like to know the details of the two demon gods' descent that night so I can report back to the Holy See later."

"Ah."

During their conversation, Alice and Jamie also took their seats.

Unlike Jamie, who looked completely at ease, Alice's expression was incredibly varied, shifting between surprise and confusion.

its not right.

Couldn't Theresa notice the unusual atmosphere between Ron and Su Fan?

Does a normal person need to dress up like this to discuss business? And with heavy makeup no less.

Alice's disdainful gaze fell on Ron's lower body, below his collarbone.

The thin fabric bore a weight it could not bear.

Regardless, she firmly supported Theresa; such a good girl shouldn't be wronged by the Mayfair Witch.

A porcelain bowl filled with wontons was quickly placed in front of them. Incidentally, Theresa's bowl seemed to be much larger.

Theresa started eating first as usual, and Jamie didn't stand on ceremony either. He had used up too much energy dealing with the vengeful spirit and the female corpse last night and hadn't replenished it much. Plus, the snacks in front of him smelled so tempting that he couldn't think of a reason not to touch them.

"What about mine?"

Alice held a spoon in her hand, glanced at the empty table in front of her, and tilted her head at Su Fan in confusion.

"Vampires can't replenish their energy by eating human food, didn't you say that yourself?"

"Is eating just about replenishing the nutrients needed to sustain life? This is mistreatment of your subordinates! I'm going to report this to the Vampire Guild!"

Despite Alice's strong protests, another bowl of wontons was served and gently placed on the table.

"Is there any progress on Prince William's request?"

"The main objective is still unclear, but we have made some progress regarding the attack they suffered last time."

Alice put the wonton into her mouth, savoring the tender and savory meat filling, and then continued.

"After you resolved the building incident, the cult's activities became more frequent, and this female corpse was their doing."

“Using the corpses of victims of medieval witch trials, as well as the resentment of many others in similar circumstances, a female corpse with powerful curse abilities was created.”

"The souls and life force of those killed by the female corpse are extracted to nourish the corpse itself..."

Alice briefly described how she and Jamie found each other's headquarters and dealt with Old John, the executor of the incident.

Although the details were omitted, Ron, who was listening nearby, was still terrified.

"It's too risky."

Ron couldn't help but frown.

"If the school bus driver had seen through your lie on the spot, or had hesitated for a moment, the outcome would have been completely different."

"The situation is urgent, and there is no time to make further arrangements."

Alice replied seriously.

“After last night, they will flee with the lives and souls they have already taken. Once they leave the London area, catching them will be like finding a needle in a haystack.”

"Besides, before that, I had also sketched out a bit of his personality and psychology. Like most superhumans who have just gained power, although he has extraordinary power, his mindset and personality have not yet changed."

Once they feel that their support is not so reliable, they will immediately reveal their weakness.

It turns out I made the right bet.

After Alice finished speaking, she lowered her head to continue eating, but out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Theresa, who was looking at her expectantly.

Turning my head, I saw that the latter's large bowl was completely clean.

Just as Alice was about to share half of hers with Theresa, another bowl, overflowing with food, floated to Theresa's feet.

"Eat without worry. I made a lot this time, there's still some left in the kitchen."

Hearing Su Fan's words, Theresa was relieved and continued to inhale rapidly.

"Then you found that you couldn't deal with the vengeful spirits in the mass grave over at the warehouse, and you could only run for your lives, right?"

"That's right, but fortunately we met Theresa later, and with her help, the vengeful spirit was successfully purified."

Alice pointed in the direction of the villa's gate.

"I put the old man and the woman's corpse in the trunk of the car. Do you want to go take a look?"

"Perhaps we can trace back to some of the esoteric sects' hideouts through them."

"No need. They wouldn't leave such an obvious clue. The people involved with the female corpse have probably already been dealt with."

Upon hearing Su Fan's words, Alice's expression changed drastically. She flashed to the outside of the villa, opened the trunk of the car, touched the female corpse with her hand, and carefully sensed it. She found that, just as Su Fan had said, nothing could be deciphered.
