Chapter 346: Chapter 346: Half Truth, Half False

Translator: 549690339

Purple Summers asked Zack Wallace if he knew how to resurrect the dead.

In her tone, there was seven parts doubt and three parts probing.

Zack was stunned at that moment and couldn’t react for a long while.

Purple wouldn’t ask this for no reason. What had she learned? Or what had she guessed? Or… who had told her something?

Zack’s heart was pounding, but he forced a calm expression: “Why do you ask, Ms. Summers? When someone dies, they are dead. How can they possibly come back to life?”

Purple continued: “For example, is it possible to resurrect a corpse? You’ve been with Master Xander and seen more than I have. Would you say this kind of thing exists in this world? And does Master Xander… know any mages who can resurrect the dead?”

Zack was instantly unsettled!

— Purple must have found out something!

It was just unknown to what extent she knew.

“Mr. King?” Purple tilted her head, her puzzled eyes seemingly shimmering with curious light, “What’s wrong? …Is there something you can’t say?”

“Ha… No, there’s nothing I can’t say…” Zack forced a smile, “The Howard Family has indeed known many mages for their business dealings, but resurrecting the dead… such a thing is mysterious and probably impossible.”

As someone who had been working under Alexander Summers, Zack’s mental fortitude was well-tested. Even if storms were brewing within him, he could maintain a courteous smile on his face.

The most important skill when trying to deceive someone was to mix truth and lies.

One couldn’t say the whole truth, nor the whole lie; mixing two or three truths in ten lies could withstand scrutiny.

For example, now that Purple was asking about such matters, as a steward, not only should Zack not keep silent, but he should also take the initiative to show concern in order to appear more natural. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Zack poured a cup of hot tea for Purple and asked with a smile: “Why did you suddenly bring this up? If you encounter any difficulties, feel free to mention them. While mages who can resurrect the dead might be hard to find, it’s possible to find a few ordinary ones.”

Purple looked into his eyes, “Does Mr. King have connections in this area?”

“Ms. Summers, you must be joking. The elder master of the Howard family has always believed in such mystical skills. Before every casino is set up, the choice of location, design, and decoration all require the consultation of several feng shui masters.”

Zack explained to Purple: “When you entered the casino, did you notice the bats and golden coins carved on the entrance door? This symbolizes the bats opening their mouths to feast, draining the gamblers’ pockets of money, bringing in wealth. Moreover, on the ceiling of the main hall, there is a row of exquisite chandeliers, bright and dazzling. But if you look closely, you’d find that these chandeliers resemble a large broadsword, capable of skewering passing gamblers straight through, causing their souls to scatter, and their wealth to be absorbed.”

Zack laughed and continued, “The Howard family values these things very much when running a casino business. The third, seventh, and ninth young masters also have many eccentric acquaintances and are well-versed in these arts. Previously, when someone had cursed Master Xander, we also sought the help of a mage to resolve it.”

“He was cursed?” Purple’s eyes widened in surprise, “Then… is he alright?”

Zack quickly replied: “We asked Ninth Young Master Howard for help, and he introduced us to a mage who broke the curse.”

After saying this, Zack shook his head and sighed, “In this world, there is no lack of wonders.”

Purple pondered thoughtfully.

From what Zack was implying… it seemed that Alexander Summers didn’t know any mages himself, but was introduced to one by someone else?

On the other hand, although Gavin Graves had suggested that this person was from one of the four major families, the forces of these families were spread throughout the Huaya Empire. With so many descendants of just the Howard Family alone, why did she suspect only Alexander Summers?
