Black Evil Force Mad Sword Maiden

How was that possible?!

Zhuo Zuo's heart filled with disbelief and the anger of being betrayed. He had been able to take a post at Sword Flower University not only because he was a Two-Winged Fist Claw Artificer himself, but also because his family had contributed plenty. His mother was a Griffon Meteorologist in the Griffin Company, noble as an Armor Earl, and his family ranked highly even across the whole of Gala City.

However, for a family like his without the backing of a Saint Domain, prosperity and decline were only a matter of a single generation. Once his mother passed away, they would be beaten back to their original form, not to mention that although Weigong Nobles could grasp power, they found it difficult to accumulate wealth. Thus Weigong Nobles often had to attach themselves to flourishing Jingong Nobles, forming deeply entangled interest groups. Zhuo Zuo's family, for instance, was attached to a Count's family that possessed a Saint Domain Artificer.

Although Zhuo Zuo had received the Count's order this time to act as a vanguard, with his status, he could still have refused if there had truly been danger. The reason he had dared to come and take away Serve's inheritance was because the Count had asserted with certainty that the Red-Haired Sword Maiden was already dead!

This was not a simple logical deduction. After discovering that they could not contact the Sword Maiden, several nobles had jointly commissioned a Prophecy Saint Domain and confirmed that Sonia was no longer in the Distant Void Domain!

She was not in the Distant Void Domain, and they could not contact her. What possibility was there besides death?

Better still, although Sonia had hidden away major secrets, she currently owned no real estate, and her only relative was a mother
