I am the descendant of a dark wizard, and I will inherit the family fortune.

Chapter 268 Where are the things? I ask you where are the things!

When the red light overwhelms the black light...

"Daniel!"

Daniel sneered at James' angry voice.

"Oh, James, have your manners been eaten away by you?"

James' breathing became heavier because he was angry.

"James, I need to remind you again that I am very dissatisfied with your recent performance. And it's not just me, your father is also dissatisfied."

"I don't need your satisfaction!"

Hearing James' words, Daniel's face instantly turned "cold".

"You don't need our satisfaction? If it weren't for our full support, where do you think you would be now?"

The red light on Daniel's hand that had just disappeared suddenly appeared again.

"James, you can let me down, but you can never let your father down! You can never let your family down!"

As he spoke, Daniel actually stretched out his hand and grabbed James' neck.

"Uh……"

James instinctively struggled when Daniel grabbed his throat.

But as soon as he put his hand on Daniel's hand, Daniel raised the corners of his mouth and lifted James up directly.

Both feet off the ground...

James flapped his arms and legs twice, then was frightened by Daniel's words and dared not move anymore.

"Beatrice is already dead, and the family can't afford to lose you again... Besides, your father and I are confident that we can protect you, so... where are the things?"

Daniel said a lot of things earnestly, but James was distracted at the moment and couldn't take it all in.

But it must be said that Daniel's "words" and "attacks" did calm him down a lot, and made him start to think about whether he should tell everything...

Daniel has been honest enough. Perhaps I should also change my attitude and approach...

Under Daniel's gaze, James was stunned for a few seconds, then answered with some difficulty: "Things...what things..."

Daniel narrowed his eyes slightly, "Magic core, that magic core."

James struggled again. Looking at James's red face, Daniel sighed and threw him out.

With a "boom", James hit the wall behind him heavily and bounced back to the ground instantly.

James lay on the ground, clenching his fists tightly.

"Cough... cough cough cough... I don't know what you are talking about!"

Daniel took two steps and stopped in front of James, "Do you know why Calvin must die?"

Hearing Calvin's name, James clenched his fists even tighter, his nails almost piercing through his flesh...

He glanced at the shoes in front of him, then slowly said, "Because you are a lunatic! You can't stand seeing me and Calvin together!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha……"

Daniel laughed. After he laughed twice, he slowly squatted down and grabbed James' head.

"Am I a lunatic? I can't stand seeing you two together? Haha, maybe, but that's not a reason for me to kill him. You took so many things from the family, and now what? Are you planning to elope with him?"

"boom..."

Daniel suddenly grabbed James' hair and slammed him to the ground...

James was hit so hard that he saw stars and the skin on his forehead exploded instantly. His head was buzzing, making it difficult for him to hear what Daniel was saying for a while.

"...You idiot! We're just playing you for a fool! Eloping? I think you've been reading too many storybooks!"

James endured the pain and said, "I didn't! If you hadn't stopped me... I would have left here long ago!"

Daniel knocked James to the ground again, "boom..."

This time, the sound was quieter than before, but James still cried out in pain.

"Ah! Daniel, kill me if you can!"

Daniel said nothing, but continued to hit the ground with James...

"boom..."

"boom..."

After James gritted his teeth and endured it three times, he couldn't bear it anymore.

"Ah! Stop it!"

Following this roar, James' body instantly swelled up, his palms, neck, cheeks...

James's exposed skin turned into a metallic black!

If Leon were here, he would definitely be familiar with James's changes at this moment.

Obviously, James' transformation is similar to Beatrice's, but his seems to be more controlled...

"Roar!"

Daniel's expression changed, and then he was instantly bounced out by a huge force.

However, he was so strong that he immediately stopped his retreat while still in mid-air...

James was obviously disappointed when he found that Daniel didn't hit the wall or the door...

He straightened up slowly and twisted his neck.

James' joints suddenly made a "cracking" sound.

Daniel looked at James's changing pupils and couldn't help laughing.

"Not bad, not bad. It seems that your control has improved a bit."

At this moment, James had become neither human nor snake. He looked like a monster covered in a layer of black snake skin...

Hearing Daniel's words, James exhaled a gray-black mist from his nose.

"Tsk...Daniel, even today, you still don't think you did something wrong?"

"I did something wrong? Interesting. Then tell me, what did I do wrong?"

James pointed at himself with his sharp fingers, "If you hadn't killed Calvin, our research would have been much smoother!

We will not be ‘controlling’, but truly ‘integrating’!"

Mastery...True Fusion...

Hearing James say this, Daniel gritted his teeth and said, "Nonsense! If I hadn't killed Calvin, would we have been able to obtain that knowledge and start these studies?

James, don't fool yourself. Calvin won't give you that knowledge, and he doesn't want to elope with you! He clearly wants to escape!"

The atmosphere in the room became more solemn. In the silence, two drops of yellow-brown saliva flowed from the corners of James' mouth...

“Ding… Shala La…”

The saliva was like sulfuric acid, corroding the ground instantly...

The yellowish-brown saliva was not exhausted until two small pits the size of quail eggs appeared on the ground.

"Look, you're angry again."

Daniel smiled and said, "You actually know this yourself, don't you? Calvin, the one you like, stole Dora's inheritance. How could Dora tolerate him? He..."

Daniel deliberately emphasized the word "like".

But before he could finish, James interrupted him.

"No! That's not the case! He is Dora's chosen successor! He didn't steal! As Dora's student, how could that be considered stealing?"

Two drops of yellow-brown saliva flowed from the corners of James' mouth, who was half snake and half human...

“Shalala…Shalala…”

Daniel glanced at the ground beneath James's feet, then replied calmly, "Okay, even if he didn't steal it, he instigated you to steal the family treasure, and then said he would take you away from here, to somewhere far away..."

Daniel laughed and continued, "You can't refute this, right?"

James was stunned when he heard this. He was about to say something, but he heard Daniel's fatal blow: "You are not going to say that you are also a member of the Sig family, so it is not considered stealing if you take the family's things?"

After Daniel finished speaking, he burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha, okay, okay, don't be angry, I won't laugh anymore!

But anyway, James, it's time for you to get your things back, because we are at a critical moment.

By the way, I have good news to tell you, your father has made a breakthrough..."

"Wha...what?!"

James's face was filled with shock, and his snake-like eyes were wide open...

My father actually broke through!?

No, he couldn't hide it any longer, otherwise, given his father's character, he would really be caught...

"Hehe, it seems that you still care about your father very much..."

James: "..."

Daniel stretched lazily and said, “Anyway, your father and I have been helping you clean up this mess for a long time, and those old guys have begun to get suspicious.

To be precise, they had suspected it a long time ago.

But this time, Beatrice lost the alchemy hut, so they will definitely take action. If they find out that the magic core is missing again..."

Daniel paused, then continued, "Hehe, do you want to guess what they will think and do when the time comes? If the Sig family fights among themselves, what will these people outside do?"

James was still speechless.

"James, you are no longer a child. You have grown up, and the Sig family will eventually be handed over to you, so there are some things you must face, even if you don't like it."

Seeing that James still seemed indifferent, Daniel's tone began to become heavier...

"These are troubled times, James. I'm asking you on behalf of your father...where are the things?"

James raised his head, opened his mouth, and finally couldn't help but sigh.

With a sigh, the strange feeling in James' body also "retracted"...

After exiting his half-human, half-snake state, he returned to his original appearance, but his face was noticeably paler.

In addition, the scar on his forehead caused by the collision had also quietly faded away.

This is also the effect of James' transformation. He has the ability to heal and recover at high speed...

"I...I don't know..."

When Daniel saw James speak, his face suddenly lit up, but...

"What?! You don't know?!"

Daniel seemed to teleport and suddenly came in front of James. He put his hands on James' shoulders and said in an anxious tone, "You don't know? How could you not know?!"

James exerted a little force to shake Daniel's palm away, then took a step back.

"When you were looking for me like crazy, I was worried...so, I gave the things to Calvin."

Daniel nodded, "And then?"

"And then..." James shook his head, "And then Calvin was killed."

Daniel: “?”

The expression on Daniel's face was as if he had knocked over a spice bottle.

He carefully recalled what happened back then and confirmed that he was not in Daniel's space ring, nor did he see any trace of the magic core on his body...

“Even if Calvin was killed, what about that thing?”

James wanted to roll his eyes and said, "You ask me, but who should I ask?"

"I do not know."

Daniel: "..."

"Huh..." After adjusting his breathing, Daniel tried to keep his tone as calm as possible since James was so cooperative. "Could the thing be with Billie? Or maybe he gave it to Dora?"

James shook his head.

"Does he have other friends?"

James still shook his head.

Daniel asked helplessly, "Then where do you think the thing might be?"

James thought for two seconds, "Calvin is a cautious person, and he is also someone who does not trust others easily, so I thought the thing would be at his residence..."

Daniel's eyes lit up. "And then? What did you find?"

James took out several sheets of densely written paper from his space ring. "These are the experimental records Daniel left in the room, as well as some information about his collection..."

Daniel quickly took the paper, and when he saw the third one, he suddenly frowned.

"There should be something in this piece...right?"

James was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that Daniel, who didn't have a deep understanding of biological transformation, could still find the problem at a glance.

"Yes, this is Calvin's wish, but... it has nothing to do with this matter!" (Calvin's gender reassignment research)

Daniel glanced at James suspiciously, then continued reading.

When he finished reading them all, he found that these things were valuable, but that was all.

"that's it?"

"That's all. I went to search Calvin's residence... but then Dora took the room into her own hands, so I didn't have the chance to look for it again."

When Daniel heard this, he had some guesses in his mind.

"You suspect that the thing is hidden there?"

James nodded, but quickly shook his head.

"I don't know, after all, everything is just speculation..."

"Oh, if I remember correctly, he happens to be the current owner of that residence?"

James followed Daniel's gaze and saw the fog swirling violently on the duel stage...

……

When Leon walked into the fog, he realized that these mists were not ordinary fogs, but a manifestation of some kind of magic.

Under the influence of magic, Leon's perception here was greatly affected.

He felt that there was Smith everywhere, and yet there was no Smith anywhere.

Coincidentally, he had a similar feeling when he was in the "bone thorns" created by Alexander.

Perhaps, this is the meaning of the Black Bone Forest.

Although witchcraft is different and varied, there is always one that suits you and can achieve similar effects...

At this moment, Leon felt...

He seemed to have walked into Smith's palm, or into his stomach.

Suddenly, he felt a chill on his skin behind him, and Leon quickly dodged...

"bass……"
