In that place, it felt almost familiar to her.
It was where Abigail had stashed her gold years ago.
Vivienne found herself standing in the basement, as Leopold kicked the door open with a forceful thrust.
A glint passed through Abigail's eyes as she clapped her hands together, "Right on time, not a minute late."
"Too bad, your knight in shining armor didn't make it in tto save you."
Vivienne's eyes flashed coldly, "What did you say?"
Abigail tossed a body to the ground with disdain, as if discarding trash.
Vivienne watched in horror as Mr. Wolf lay lifeless before her, his vitality seemingly drained away.
She knelt down, covering him with her coat, caressed his face gently, and placed a pill in his mouth.
Handing him over to Leopold.
Leopold was stunned, his mouth agape, unsure of how to proceed as there wasn't a single unmarred spot on Percival's body.
Disbelief filled his eyes as he glared at Abigail, "You witch, what have you done to Percival?"
Abigail's gaze was filled with disdain, "I simply took advantage of his dying moments to drain his supernatural energy. It's his own
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfault for being so weak. Such a waste of a good power..."
"Who are you calling weak?"
Vivienne suddenly unleashed her power, her body enveloped in an invisible force.
Unbeknownst to her, the energy radiating from her was no longer just a simple seventh-level supernatural ability but was imbued
with a dark, ominous power.
A voice whispered in her mind, suggesting that she could destroy the world with just a thought, if she so desired.
Leopold was terrified by the crimson in Vivienne's eyes, "Vivienne, stop! You'll be consumed by darkness!"
Vivienne's eyes, now a mesmerizing shade of glassy blue, looked chillingly cold, "If it avenges Mr. Wolf, what does it matter if I'm
consumed by darkness?"
She didn't care.
Abigail, floating mid-air under Vivienne's control, was actually delighted.
After waiting for over two centuries, her patience was finally rewarded.
Only by invoking this dark power could she achieve immortality and reign supreme.
Fate was indeed in her favor.
Not wanting to waste time, Vivienne focused her dark energy, intent on tearing Abigail to pieces for Mr. Wolf.
But Abigail, anticipating this, used her own powers to deflect the attack, smirking, "Not enough, far from enough!"
With that, Abigail broke free from Vivienne's hold, capturing a few bystanders to leverage her position.
"If one Percival could awaken your dark energy, then a few more should fully unleash your true power. Let's see what you're really
capable of, Vivienne. Otherwise, how could you ever match up to my stature?"
"Over my dead body!"
Vivienne's eyes narrowed as she unleashed another powerful attack at Abigail, rescuing Richard in the process.
She wouldn't let anything happen to the Ellington family again.
Abigail, reading her intentions, wore a smug grin.
As long as people had weaknesses, no matter how powerful they were, they were just puppets in her hands.
These hostages were merely tools, useful only for her purposes.
Using Nathan as a decoy, she attracted Vivienne's attention while threatening Cecilia with a deadly gesture.
Just as she was about to strike, a pain at her foot stopped her, "Monster, let go of my mom, don't you dare hurt her."

Abigail looked down at Isolde with a sneer, "Little brat, don't et, it was thanks to you that | managed to drug your family and
bring them here. You've already sided with me."
Isolde's face went pale as she denied any intentional harm, but Abigail was not interested in her excuses.
Vivienne caught Isolde, reassuring her, before turning her focus back to Abigail.
With dark energy at hermand, Vivienne knew she had to end Abigail's tyranny.
But as Cecilia's blood touched her hand, a thrill surged within her, awakening an insatiable desire for destruction.
Abigail, realizing Vivienne's growing power, knew she had one last step to ensure her victory.
That was to transfer this dark force into a set of twins born with innate darkness, sealing her fate as the immortal ruler she was
determined to be.
Although Abigail managed to grasp the Millennia Aegis fragment, she found herself caught in Vivienne's snare. Trapped, she
struggled to move, her plans thwarted by the very energy she sought to control.
From outside the barrier, Vivienne poured more power into her trap, and Abigail, overwhelmed, fell to one knee, blood trickling
from the corner of her mouth. A mocking glint passed through her eyes—Vivienne was the only one who had ever managed to hurt
her, tand again.
But in her focus on the trap, Vivienne overlooked one crucial detail. The power she wielded was summoned by her, yet no one
understood its weaknesses better than Abigail herself.
