Chapter 26: The Witch Reveals The Truth

“Eleonora Asil, is that you?”

Kyle Leonard’s voice echoed in Park Noah’s ears; his words seeping the life out of her being. At that moment, she thought her life had turned upside down. It was a question that she never thought she’d hear while possessing the body of Eleonora Asil.

Still, she forced herself out of stupor and thought of an escape. However, Kyle Leonard’s hand, as swift as a cheetah, pulled back the trigger of his gun and said menacingly, “Rebellion won’t work. You remember what I did to your house.”

“…….” Park Noah bit her lips. Yeah, he cleaned up.

When Kyle Leonard became a temporary butler in the house, he seized and discarded all the magical items that were modified by the original witch, Eleonora, at the same time he was cleaning.

Park Noah glanced sideways around the living room, and none of the magical items she knew how to operate were nearby. She realized that Kyle Leonard was inherently capable, and he had no need of the magical tools Eleonora possessed.

Ever since the investigator had infiltrated the humble abode of Park Noah, little did she know that the house wasn’t entirely in her hands anymore.

Did he plan everything beforehand? She balled her fists so hard that her nails pierced through her skin. What a scary man!

The man spat out in a harsh voice. “I’ll ask you again. Eleonora Asil, is that you?”

“…….”

“I won’t ask three times.”

Park Noah’s heart was pounding erratically. What’s his purpose for asking? Streams of thoughts clouded her mind at that moment.

Kyle Leonard is an excellent investigator who earned the title of the youngest general manager. This man probably knows the truth already, so it’s more dangerous if I lie to him upfront. I don’t want a bullet hole carved in my forehead…

After a moment of silence, Park Noah replied, grabbing the child to her back.

“No.”

“What is your real name?”

As soon as she answered, she received the second question right away. ‘He already knew,’ she thought.

“Noah. Park Noah.” Carefully, she told Kyle Leonard her name.

The third question immediately followed. “Original age, gender, and origin.”

Park Noah took a short breath and exhaled deeply. “I’m twenty-six years old here. Gender is originally a woman. And from… Seoul. But you wouldn’t know even if I told you. It’s not in this world.”

“I will be the judge.” Kyle persisted.

“…Seoul, South Korea.”

Facing the deadpan Kyle Leonard, Park Noah knew he had no intention of taking this matter lightly.
