“Dad, if we keep stalling, there really won’t be a way back.” Axel suddenly appeared, prompting Augustus to frown. 

“Get out of my way!” Augustus said. 

He had only ever acknowledged Malcolm as his son. He had poured the most effort into Malcolm, who was also the most talented. His other children were nothing in his eyes. 

However, Axel didn’t seem offended. “I have some rapport with Felix. I can go with Uzziah and smooth things over, and then you can step in afterward. I think we can still salvage this.” 

Augustus fell silent, staring into Axel’s eyes. For the first time, a grave realization dawned on him. “Alright. You’ll come with me.” 

Meanwhile, Felix had just arrived at the small square inside Twilight Gardens of Canraville. 

Twilight Gardens was one of several botanical gardens in the city. Located on the outskirts, it wasn’t as popular as the others. However, there was a steady flow of visitors because it provided free entry to its visitors. 

However, when Felix arrived, there wasn’t a single soul in sight. It was strange given that it was still broad daylight. 

“Felix, so you’ve come, after all.” 

Standing in the square were Nala and Yvonne. Beside them was Alfie, whom Felix had briefly met before. He was a steward or something. 

“You made a promise,” Felix said coldly. “After this meeting, you wouldn’t bother me again. I’m here only because I trust Yvonne’s words. This is the last chance I’m giving you. Break your word, and I won’t be so polite next time.” 

Yvonne stood expressionless, though the flicker in her eyes seemed to hint at something. 

Felix couldn’t help but wonder why Nala had called for a meeting so suddenly. He despised the woman with every fiber of his being, yet he couldn’t ignore her unique position in Dragonia. He did not want to be involved with her at all. 

Beyond that, there was one critical factor: Nala’s connection to Lionel, the Shadowdragon Warlord. That tie alone had the potential to hurt Xena deeply, which was something Felix wanted to avoid at all costs. 

However, after Felix spoke, he frowned. 

A middle–aged man and an elderly man appeared. The both of them emitted an

unmistakable air of murderous intent. It didn’t take a genius to figure out they didn’t come with good intentions. 

“That middle–aged man is from the Elders‘ Council,” Nala said. “The older one is the Third Elder of the Crayden family, which is one of the Eight Great Martial Families. I assume you know why they’re here?” 

Felix didn’t flinch. Instead, a look of puzzlement crossed his face. Yvonne wouldn’t do something like this–at least not to him. 

As expected, Yvonne opened his mouth, as if to explain. However, she said nothing in the end. 

“Interesting,” Felix mused, his tone tinged with mockery. “Still, I can’t imagine the mighty Lady Nala relying on others to deal with me. Have you really fallen that far?”
