Christ remained silent as he carefully stored away the bamboo dragonfly.

He checked the Grand Elder's breathing, finding no signs of life.

Only then did he accept the fact that the Grand Elder, a relic of the past, had indeed passed.

"Grand Elder."

After the Grand Elder's abduction, Christ initially suspected it was Summer's doing. After all, Summer was like an apprentice to

them, having learned alongside Cynthia back in the day.

However, Cynthia was invariably the more gifted, be it in hypnosis or the arts, she was a top-notch prodigy.

Before her eighteenth birthday, Cynthia was hand-picked as the BK's Holy Daughter.

Neither the Grand Elder nor Christ was married, nor did they have a daughter, so they treated Cynthia as if she were their own

flesh and blood.

Ever since Cynthia disappeared, they'd been searching but never had a trace to follow.

Left with no alternatives, Christ instructed his people to start preparing for the Grand Elder's funeral.

Upon hearing of the Grand Elder's passing, Summer knew that besides Cynthia, he was the Grand Elder's only other disciple.

According to BK’s rules, a disciple could inherit the Grand Elder's position within the organization.

Though rarely involved in decision-making, Summer had a solid reputation within the organization. Now, with the title of Grand
