Master of Life and Death의 모든 챕터: 챕터 301 - 챕터 310

Cassian felt his heart lurch as he wondered who the old arcane art practitioner standing in front of him was. Why would he be acquainted with Mason?Just as he was about to ask further, however, Dunley said, "That friend of mine has a nickname—the Lord of Carnage. It sounds pretty badass, yeah?""Sure does," Cassian answered before seizing the chance to ask a question of his own. "What kind of person is your friend, sir?""Him?"Dunley reminisced for a while before saying, "To be honest with you, I'm not sure how I should describe him. If I must, I'll say he's a peerless man, like a god among mortals."A peerless man who was a god among mortals?The brief answer was enough to stun Cassian, for this was no simple accolade. Even across multiple centuries and millennia, few were worthy of such high praise.Sighing, Dunley added, "It's been many years since I last saw that old friend of mine. I do miss him terribly.""Where has your friend gone, sir?" Cassian asked, curious to know

Cassian quickly looked out the car window, but Dunley had vanished without a trace."Where'd he go?" Cassian asked Serena."He was right outside just now," she replied. "How could he have vanished in the blink of an eye?"Cassian hurried out of the car and looked around for any sign of Dunley, to no avail. Disappointed, he got back into the car."You couldn't find him?" Serena asked."I don't know where he went," Cassian replied."He said you two are destined to meet, so I'm sure you'll see him again," she assured him.He nodded. "Yeah."Cassian figured he could only ask Dunley about the words on the paper the next time they crossed paths. He started the engine and began driving again.A while after they left, Dunley reappeared in the same spot. Looking at the cash he was holding, he remarked with a gleaming smile, "My divination foretold that I'd be getting a windfall today, and sure enough, I did."Then, his expression turned serious."That young lady has a noble and excep

Under Serena's direction, Cassian drove the car down a quiet, tree-lined road. Gradually, the view ahead began to change. Rows of old classical-style houses appeared, with tiled roofs and tall, pointed gables. Through the wrought-iron fences, he could see lush gardens filled with greenery.Finally, the car rolled to a stop in front of a three-story villa."We're here," Serena said.After getting out of the car, Cassian looked up at the house. The outer wall was covered in ivy that crept all the way up, making it look like a castle of some kind.This wasn't what he'd expected.Cassian thought that the rich would prefer modern mansions or luxurious penthouses. He didn't expect Serean's parents to live in a rather traditional-looking house that exuded a sense of history and quiet refinement."You're about to meet your in-laws. How does it feel?" Serena asked with a smile."I'm not married," Cassian replied teasingly. "Who are these so-called in-laws of mine?""What are you trying

Cassian followed Quinn into the house and saw Serena standing in the middle of the living room, her expression frosty.Two men sat on the couch in front of her. One was a man in his 40s, pale-faced and pudgy. One look was all it took to deduce that he was a cunning man who hid behind the insincere smile on his face.The other was a young man in his early 20s. He had a cigarette dangling from his mouth as he sat there with one leg crossed over the other, his limited-edition sneakers waving in the air. His posture screamed arrogance.Cassian could tell that this was probably the younger of Serena's paternal uncles, Bernard Landon, and his son, Justin Landon.A handsome man in his 50s sat on the other couch. His hair was slicked back, and he wore a white suit. His features were sharp and defined, similar to those of an old famous actor.Cassian figured that was probably Serena's father, Ambrose Landon.Bernard chuckled and said, "Calm down, Serena. I'm a reasonable man. It's not lik

Following the crisp sound of the slap, Justin's left cheek immediately turned red.Everyone was stupefied. No one expected Cassian to hit Justin.Even Ambrose, who was still sitting on the couch, had a look of shock after seeing what Cassian did. Having heard about Cassian's background from Serena, he couldn't help but feel stunned that a doctor would dare to hit Justin.Did he not know who Justin was?That was clearly not the case.Therefore, the fact that Cassian dared to slap Justin despite knowing who he was proved he was a bold man, even if it had been done out of recklessness or impulsiveness.A flicker of appreciation crossed Ambrose's eyes. Great things were often done by people with courage, and he'd just witnessed that quality in Cassian.Quinn was just as taken aback. Who would've thought that Cassian, who'd been nothing but polite with her earlier, would strike someone so decisively?As for Justin, he clutched his cheek and stared at Cassian in disbelief. "You dare
