Chapter 451

Bradley sat nonchalantly on a nearby bench, smoking.

Nash also smiled while comforting him saying, “Don’t worry… This is Ken’s opportunity.”

Finn looked defeated. “No matter how incredible the hand is, it’s still someone else’s. It surely feels different than one’s own!”

At that moment, Madam Lunaris walked out of the room with Ken.

Ken’s entire right hand was wrapped in bandages.

Nash immediately used his Third Eye to inspect it.

After all, having invested 3 billion, he had to check the results.

Black scales covered Ken’s right hand.

His palm still had five fingers, but the nails resembled eagle claws.

By appearance alone, it no longer looked human.

The blood and tendons in the hands had established a blood circulation system.

Meanwhile, the bones held an unsettling power.

“How do you feel, Ken?”

Finn asked immediately, concerned about the 3 billion Nash had invested.

Ken replied in a daze, “I can’t feel any pain…”

He had been knocked out by Madam Lunaris as soon as he entered the room and had no idea about what had transpired.

When he woke up, he found his hand bandaged and even doubted if he still had a hand.

Madam Lunaris laughed sinisterly. “The anesthesia hasn’t worn off. Of course, you can’t feel pain.”

Then, she snorted coldly. “You’re lucky… I merely didn’t want to bring that thing into my coffin!”

“What thing?”

Finn asked, puzzled.

Everyone also looked at Madam Lunaris for answers.

“Something valuable!”

Madam Lunaris did not want to explain too much, then looked at Nash and asked, “How about it, Mr. Young? Are you satisfied?”

Nash responded politely, “Very satisfied.”

Madam Lunaris glanced at the ring on Nash’s finger and slowly walked back into the house.

Driven by curiosity, Melody asked, “What was that ‘thing’ Madam Lunaris mentioned? Is it related to Ken’s exchange?”

“It’s… hard to explain.”

“Come on… I funded that three billion!”

“I’ll pay you back when we get home!”

“I want interest. It’s now 3.5 billion!”

The day quickly passed.

After a good rest, they prepared to return to Jonford.

Not wanting to endure another lengthy journey, Nash booked plane tickets.

Melody also made an excuse to leave with Heidi and Nash.

On the plane, Melody kept pestering Nash about what Madam Lunaris had done to Ken.

She was very curious and simply would not let it go.

Nash pretended to be asleep, ignoring Melody’s pleas.

“Just tell me, Mr. Nash!”

Melody even tried to act cute.

Nonetheless, Nash was not budging.

He simply pretended to have fallen asleep.

“Hmph… Men! I’ll remember this!” Melody fumed, feeling like giving him a piece of her mind.

Heidi whispered, “Mel… I once heard my dad mention that Madam Lunaris took a bottle of unicorn blood from an ancient tomb in Schiedam…”

Melody’s eyes widened, “Unicorn… blood?”

Heidi nodded. “Yes… It’s said to be from the king of Schiedam, Wendell Dackin’s, tomb. He allegedly hunted a unicorn.”

“King Wendell Dackin, the grandfather of King Christian Dackin?” Melody exclaimed in shock. “That’s a tomb from over 3,000 years ago! Is the unicorn blood story reliable?”

“I did some research at the time… The historical records don’t mention much about King Wendell, so it’s hard to verify!” Heidi whispered.

“So… you think Madam Lunaris might have injected unicorn blood into the severed palm of the Undead Corpse King?” Melody speculated.

“Well, that’s what I think. Since Nash doesn’t want to share, all we can do is guess!” Heidi smirked, glancing at Nash.

“You’re really something, to have actually guessed it right!”
