<ms-text-chunk _ngcontent-ng-c3116847607="" _nghost-ng-c4080898746=""><ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c4080898746="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Anne recovered from the sharp pain in her shoulder and glared up at Aiden. "Was this your doing?"</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"Aren't you underestimating me a bit? At the very least, I'm the local emperor here," Aiden chuckled. "If I wanted to mess with you, I wouldn't need such petty tricks. You should reflect on who you managed to provoke right after getting locked up."</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Anne gritted her teeth, beginning to understand the reason behind her predicament.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"Using violence in prison, and all she gets is one day in solitary?" Anne questioned Aiden, her face dark.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"The severity of punishment depends on the circumstances. After all, we can't completely rule out the possibility of an accident," Aiden shrugged. "You only got that much for spitting in my face yesterday. What more do you want?"</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"Sooner or later, I'll chop that bitch into pieces and use her as fish bait!" Anne spat out fiercely, grinding her teeth.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"There's no sea here," Aiden shook his head. "You should be more worried about whether you'll survive being tormented to death in this prison."</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Anne looked up at Aiden, her expression cold and grim. Aiden could clearly sense her mind formulating plans for revenge against him.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"Speaking of which, I have some questions for you," Aiden continued calmly, unfazed. "I read in the files that you were captured by a bounty hunter?"</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Anne Drake was an Empire inmate, and the main case files were held by the Empire. The documents Aiden received were summaries sent over by them, lacking detail.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">The description of Anne's capture only mentioned a bounty hunter using a cargo ship at sea to lure out Anne's pirate vessel, then boarding, seriously injuring several pirates, and taking Anne captive. The identity of the bounty hunter wasn't specifically mentioned.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Anne kept her mouth shut, clearly unwilling to cooperate with Aiden's questioning.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Aiden decided to use provocation. "A single bounty hunter wiped out your entire pirate crew? Just how pathetic are you? You must be the laughingstock of all the pirates in the entire Serene Sea."

</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">As expected, Anne immediately snapped. "It wasn't just one bounty hunter! There were three of them! And they were all Vampires!"

</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"Oh? Vampires?" Aiden narrowed his eyes, a realization dawning.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">He thought for a moment, then probed further. "Was one of them wearing an old-fashioned suit, maybe a monocle? Looked young but dressed like an old gentleman in his fifties?"</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Anne recalled, "He wore a cloak, I don't know what was underneath, but that bastard was definitely wearing glasses..."</ms-cmark-node> Ŗ𝘈ΝỌBÈṠ

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256=""><ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">It was Kyle,</ms-cmark-node> Aiden was almost certain.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Three high-ranking Vampires wiped out Anne Drake's pirate crew and handed her over to the Imperial Navy. Only two entities could orchestrate such organized action from high-ranking Vampires: the reaper, who controlled the old Blood Moon Cult, or the Vampire Progenitor, Azrael. The reaper clearly had no reason to do such a thing.

</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">It was likely that the bounty hunter who handed Anne over to the Navy was Kyle himself, probably because he was the only one among the three Vampire Prince with a legal identity.

</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">For Kyle, the Progenitor's lackey, to take such initiative, it must have been under the Progenitor's orders.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">It seemed Melissa hadn't just made the Progenitor reveal information about Navia Drake to him; she had also arranged for the Progenitor to provide the bait to lure her out.

</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Although the Progenitor was cursed, he was still the Saint of the "Death" Authority. Meanwhile, Mephilia was sealed in prison, merely claiming to be a follower of the "Goddess of Conspiracy." It seemed unlikely she alone could compel the Progenitor to do so much.

</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Aiden faintly sensed that Melissa herself likely possessed a status allowing her to converse with the Progenitor as an equal.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">If she truly was a being above the rank of Saint, and if she intended to free Mephilia from this prison, stopping her would likely be incredibly difficult.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">This could also explain why Mephilia, a Dominator, seemed utterly unconcerned about being imprisoned by mortals—because she could break free at any time.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Aiden shook his head at the thought. This wasn't something he could figure out now, and even if he could, he couldn't solve it.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">The most important thing now was to tackle the task Melissa had arranged for him. Although semi-compulsory, he still needed to seize the <ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Codex Anomos</ms-cmark-node> from Drake's hands.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Aiden glanced at the prison doctor, inquiring about Anne's condition with his eyes.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"Just a dislocation, no fractures. Once it's set, it'll heal gradually over a couple of days," the doctor waved a hand. "No need to keep her in the infirmary. Send her back, just make sure she doesn't lift heavy objects."</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"Looks like you can still handle some assembly work in the toy workshop. Report for duty tomorrow," Aiden looked at Anne.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"You're making me work while I'm injured?" Anne frowned.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"Criminals don't have the rights of ordinary people. You've already been assigned light duty. Don't push your luck," Aiden replied calmly.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"I won't cooperate anyway," Anne sneered.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"Still fond of the solitary cell you slept in yesterday, are you?" Aiden raised an eyebrow. "You enjoy sleeping next to the toilet that much?"</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"Solitary, solitary, that's your only trick," Anne looked at Aiden provocatively. "I'm getting out sooner or later anyway. I don't care if you make me live in solitary."</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"If you're going to be this stubborn, I can add continuous restraints," Aiden said, his expression unchanged. "Twenty-four hours a day, hands cuffed behind your back, cuffs chained to a waist belt."</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"So what?"</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"You won't be saying that when you need to wipe after using the toilet... Oh, wait," Aiden corrected himself. "At that point, you might not even be able to pull down your own pants."</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Anne's expression shifted slightly.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Aiden rarely had occasion to use such punishments; even the old Carmilla would yield when faced with such a threat.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"Also, if you can't get along with your current cellmate, I can arrange another one for you," Aiden continued. "Seeing as you seemed to hit it off so well with that violent inmate earlier, how about arranging for you two to live together? By the way, she's probably not even the worst roommate available here."</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Anne was speechless.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"Cat got your tongue? Is that all? Looks like you're not quite stupid enough to seek your own demise," Aiden admired the unwilling resentment on Anne's face, nodding with satisfaction.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Ever since Ophelia and the other difficult inmates had become well-behaved, it had been a long time since he'd properly savored the pleasure of breaking such a hard-headed, stubborn inmate until she could only swallow her anger in silence.

</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">Although the Unique Authority in Navia Drake's possession was indeed a problem, the pirate princess currently before him was undoubtedly a source of joy with potential rivaling Ophelia's.</ms-cmark-node>

<ms-cmark-node _ngcontent-ng-c2459883256="" _nghost-ng-c2459883256="">"Sooner or later... I'll kill you!" After a long pause, Anne enunciated each word slowly.</ms-cmark-node>
