71: Chapter 66 Elemental Collapse, Forbidden Magic Domain 71: Chapter 66 Elemental Collapse, Forbidden Magic Domain Philip had been missing for half a year, and Tiffy had been suffering from insomnia for the same duration.
Although many people were pessimistic about Philip’s disappearance, only six months had passed, not enough time for the law to declare Philip dead.
He might have accepted a secret mission from the police, or perhaps he was drafted by a national secret organization and was currently undergoing fully enclosed training.
There were many possibilities, various reasons that prevented him from contacting the outside world.

And so she waited, for half a year.
Tiffy suffered from insomnia, wandering aimlessly by day and unable to sleep at night.
Her poor mental state led to her being let go by her company and now she lived alone in a rental unit, refusing to connect with the outside world.
Tiffy’s prolonged insomnia made her nerves overly sensitive; the slightest stir could awaken her from her shallow slumber.
She called out twice, but seeing no one responded outside the window, she picked up the baseball bat by her bed and cautiously approached the French window.
There was no one there; no one was hiding on either side of the window walls, only a puddle of wet puddle.
Tiffy blanked out, her heart inexplicably aching; she sat back down by the bed, thinking about the strange sound she had just heard—it seemed to be her boyfriend talking.
Her mental condition was terrible; unable to discern if it was a dream or a hallucination, she got nowhere after pondering over and over, and then called her close friend Perry.
Perry was Philip’s good brother and her childhood playmate.
Over this half year, if not for Perry’s hustling to help and his promise to search for Philip with all his might, she very much doubted whether she could have held on.
In six months’ time, Perry had become the person Tiffy trusted most, far surpassing her best girlfriend who had not visited her for a long time.
Tiffy had even formed a habit—whenever she faced a trouble she couldn’t resolve, she would seek Perry’s help.
Ah Bo kneeled on one knee, facing Wayne, who was mounted on an Undead Warhorse, his half body shrouded in fog, the latter tilted his head to listen and said sinisterly, “Your girlfriend is calling your enemy late at night; seems like our little brother Perry has concealed it very well, completely gaining your girlfriend’s trust…”
“So, he’s going to confess tonight, isn’t he?”
Ah Bo’s face remained taut and said nothing, the angry flames flickering in his pale eyes.
Right then, he felt a surge of immense Magic Power entering his body, immediately moisturizing his drying body.
Ah Bo didn’t understand and looked up in confusion.
“What are you staring at, go kill him!
Don’t tell me you plan to let him into the house?
Or do you wish to put aside your hatred for love, believing that your enemy can take good care of your girlfriend, ready to bless them?” Wayne sneered.
Ah Bo shook his head and curtly said, “He’s not worthy.”
“I’m starting to like you a bit, keep it up, bring me his head first.”
Wayne formed a sword with his fingers, and a grey longsword swirling with the aura of Death was thrust in front of Ah Bo, “I don’t like dogs that drag their feet, make it quick, and return quickly; Ah Bin will help you.”
Ah Bo looked at the longsword before him and reached out to pull it out, but in the instant he reached, he saw the police uniform peeking out from the cuff of the overcoat and ultimately withdrew his hand.
“Master, I want the law to judge him.”
Wayne nodded, “It’s not impossible, but you should be mentally prepared.
For his master, he could even kill his brother, such a loyal dog like him, his master won’t give up easily.
Are you sure you want to go through the legal process?”
“I’m sure, I will clarify everything, and I will send the councilman to jail together with him,” Ah Bo declared firmly.
“Then go, don’t keep me waiting too long.”
Wayne nodded, motioned for Ah Bin to lead the way, and rode the Undead Warhorse into the mist.
Not until Wayne left did Ah Bo take a deep breath of relief.
Being near his master, he felt immense pressure at every moment, feeling like the slightest mistake would obliterate his soul.
Ah Bo knew that Lundan Town was hiding some eerie power, urban legends were not without a basis, but he never expected the degree of weirdness to be so strong that it was a miracle he had survived night strolls until six months ago.
He stood on the rooftop without moving, saw a car light approaching in the distance, and focused on the face of the driver hundreds of meters away before he leapt from the rooftop.
The car lights grew closer.
Perry gripped the steering wheel, a smile curling at the edge of his mouth.
The councilman had warned him not to wander around in the nights of Lundan, it could be Inner Lundan City, preferably not the West District or North District, but never the East District or South District – the less economically developed the place, the more dangerous it was.
The councilman had connections above; his intelligence was reliable and wouldn’t talk nonsense.
Perry heeded his admonitions and rarely went out at night after his good brother disappeared without reason.
But tonight was different.
Tiffy had called for help; his opportunity had come.
Moreover, Tiffy lived in the West District, which was not, strictly speaking, a backward and impoverished area, so it didn’t count as violating the councilman’s order.
Perry glanced at the passenger seat, where a blooming rose lay, the unmistakable symbolism inspiring him.
If the time was right, he would express his love tonight.
He had already thought of what he would say, that he would love Tiffy twice as much, including his good brother’s share.
Thinking about it, Perry’s smile grew wider, already envisioning himself staying the night at Tiffy’s place.
For half a year, he was finally poised to rise to his place…
A loud sound shattered Perry’s fantasy, pulling him back to reality.
The sedan seemed to have hit something, splashing a large quantity of water and blurring the windshield.
Perry hastily stepped on the brake and got out of the car to check on the injured party – he was on the rise in his career and could not afford a car accident to impact his future prospects.
