Chapter 192 - The Youngest Willow Of Spring (1/2)
Suddenly somebody raised their hand and stopped the execution for a moment.
When Hecathe looked up, he found that it was one of the willows.
The little girl looked exactly as she did when Hecathe had first seen her. She was wearing a cloak that covered her entire body and half of her face.
The only thing visible clearly was her soft pink lips.
Hecathe had read about the three willows of spring and that was perhaps the only reason why he knew her name.
This girl was called Lara and she was the youngest willow of spring.
”Unfortunately enough, Marvin refused to come today. I hope our dear Alphius would not be too depressed by it,” Lara spoke with a tone that sounded a bit too smooth and flattering.
Although Hecathe did not have any interest in listening to her words, he couldn't help but feel a little fortunate that this girl was indirectly buying some time for him.

After waiting for more than half an hour, LeiLei and Marvin were finally able to spot the man that had been sent by Asgarian.
LeiLei, ”Let's get him there.”
Marvin nodded his head as he heard this and got ready to capture the man, but somebody else seemed to have caught his eyes.
Marvin's eyebrows creased together and he looked at a man who looked to be familiar, and at the same time, it also looked as if he had a hard time remembering him.
It was as if this man was present in his memories, but he had somehow lost those memories.
”Marvin, what are you doing?” LeiLei questioned with a frown as she looked at the man in disbelief.
”Just...” Marvin was distracted and couldn't help but mutter absent-mindedly, ”Who is that...?”
LeiLei followed Marvin's gaze and looked at the man who Marvin was talking about.
Although she could recognize him, she gulped as she shook her head and spoke, ”Let's just go. We don't have much time.”
Marvin's frown deepened as he heard this and he was about to leave but after just two steps, he stopped as his expression got even more ugly and he recalled the memory that seemed to have been buried in the back of his mind.
This man... He was the new owner of LeiLei's old house.
When they were leaving the mansion, Marvin had managed to catch a glimpse of this man who was standing by the window, looking at them.
”Marvin, let's go!” LeiLei snapped as she started getting impatient and Marvin gulped as he suddenly felt as if he had something to do.
”LeiLei, go ahead first. I'll follow after you in a bit. I have something to do.” Marvin spoke and before LeiLei could give a response to him, the boy had already turned and ran away.
Marvin ran downstairs and because he owned a small share of this auction house, the guards and workers didn't stop him at all.
He went straight for the man that he remembered and abruptly grabbed his shoulder as he spoke, ”You! We have something to talk about, don't we?”
Oddly enough, the man didn't look to be shocked in the least, in fact, he smirked as he turned to look at Marvin and asked with an amused tone, ”How may I help you?”
”Who are you?” Marvin asked as he glared at the man.
”I believe I already told your friend the answer to that,” The man tilted his head as he responded calmly, ”My name is Psion.”
Marvin shook his head with a frown, ”I'm not asking your name.”
”Hmm?” Psion looked to be a bit surprised as he heard this and his smirk had changed into a small smile as he asked, ”Then what do you mean?”
”At first I thought you could only read our minds and do petty illusion tricks, but that is not what happened the last time, was it? You controlled our minds completely and made us do things which were later erased from our memories,” Marvin stated firmly as his eyes narrowed down on the man, ”And we all know who is known for having such an ability.”
Psion chuckled in amusement as he heard this but said nothing.
