Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1299

"If it were me, I much prefer capturing their energy as soon as they reveal their murderous energy. Then… I'll counterattack."

…

At Crimson Lake Elementary, Westfield District, it was exactly dismissal time. Outside the elementary school, the area was filled with parents picking up their children.

Among the crowd stood a man wearing a padded jacket, who appeared haggard and unremarkable.

It wasn't until he saw the children lining up behind their teacher, heading out of the school, that a faint glint of bloodshot red flashed in his eyes.

He slowly stepped forward, blending in like any eager parent waiting to pick up their child.

First, he pulled open his jacket. Then, his pace quickened. He dashed toward the group of children, pulling a knife from beneath his clothing as he ran.

A person among the crowd noticed the glint of silver flash and immediately screamed, "He has a knife!"

The security guards at the school gate, as well as the nearby traffic officers, heard the commotion and quickly rushed over. However, they were too far away to stop the following events in time.

The man twisted in a grimace as he wielded a knife and swung it toward a child closest to him.

The surrounding crowd was thrown into chaos, with some parents trying to rush forward to stop him. However, another figure moved faster than them.

As the man drew his knife, the rising energy of violence around him seemed to trigger something, as if a hidden mechanism had been set off.

Behind the plaques displaying the school motto on either side of the elementary school gate, two small paper figures suddenly came to life.
