Lindon was confused as to what was happening. He didn\'t know why the man in front of him was talking like he was not the son of his uncle. His features were very similar to Duke Ulysses which was undoubtedly a sign that he was a Ginehart. He looked at the man again but all he could see was a person entirely different from the one he had been talking to just a while ago.

"Who are you?" He stood up and took several steps back away from the man. He looked around but saw that his servants weren\'t moving.

Cygnus couldn\'t contain the glee he was feeling at the face of his opponent. "Someone you can call the grim reaper. I\'m surprised that you believe that farce and just suspected for a while. This only goes to show that you don\'t know your own cousin\'s face and yet you still burned him alive."

"You are wrong," he mumbled. He kept on stepping back until his back finally hit the door. He felt for the door knob but the moment he was about to twist it open, Cygnus appeared before him.

"Are you going to run away?" Cygnus whispered. He grabbed the man\'s shoulder and gripped it tightly before he forcefully pulled and threw him in the opposite direction.

Lindon hit the corner of the sofa where he sat and landed on the floor. He pushed himself up but before he could stand, a foot was already barreling towards him. The butler\'s foot connected with Lindon\'s stomach and it caused him to be pushed back and hit the wall. He wheezed and coughed as he tried to catch his breath after the impact.

"What-what are you trying to do?" He tried to speak and stand but he failed as he slumped down on the floor once again.

"I am only fulfilling a contract that I made with the duke and the general." Cygnus walked to where the was slumped down and stared down at him. "I think this is the right time for me to fulfill what I have been asked to do."

"No! No! Don\'t come near me!" He shouted as he pushed himself back so that he could put distance between them.

Everyone was just going too fast. He entered the room with confidence because he wanted to intimidate his cousin and show him who was the boss. He even executed all of that farce just to make this cousin of his discouraged. Lindon knew that he succeeded because of how naïve he looked.

Lindon was thoroughly confused and the power that was coming from the man came from the darkness. He had encountered it once when he was a teenager and a lady suddenly appeared before him. She was someone crazy and as soon as she saw him, she started to spout some nonsense.

She said that she was an immortal and that no one would be able to kill her. After that, she suddenly attacked him and he lost consciousness but he couldn\'t forget the feeling of that power. It was similar to what he was feeling from the man in front of him.

His body was suddenly seized with fear because when he looked at the man, he was now looking at a person with red eyes. It glinted through the slowly darkening room. Lindon started to look around for something that could fend off the demon in front of her.

"There are some interesting thoughts inside of your head." Cygnus spoke as he crouched down and pinned the man with his eyes. "Let\'s get to know more about it then." He raised his hand and lightly touched the man\'s forehead.

Lindon screamed in pain because of the forceful invasion of his mind. There was resistance so the master needed to pour out a little bit more of his mana to break all the restrictions in his mind. He didn\'t care even if he needed to break the man\'s mind as long as he could obtain the information he wanted.

It only took the master a minute to fully access the man\'s memories. He grinned as he found something interesting in those memories. He retracted his hand and took a step back. Lindon\'s body slumped down even further. Saliva was dripping down from his mouth and his eyes became blank.

"I\'ve found another one." He laughed as he looked back at his butler. "I need Ignius to add her to the list of those people and find where she is hiding."

The air stirred and a gate appeared where the long-haired human form of the dragon came out. "You called for me master?" He grinned as he observed the room and then he finally saw the man on the ground. "Oh, isn\'t this that arrogant Ginehart?"

"I called you here for a more important matter," the master frowned.

Using only his mind, Cygnus let the man behind him float. He then turned around and stabbed the man in the heart. He brutally pulled out the man\'s heart before turning back towards the butler and the dragon. Cygnus grinned before he crushed the man\'s heart without hesitation.

"Any more questions?" Cygnus asked. He gave his two aides a look as he waited for them to speak.

"Of course, we don\'t have a question. We are here to listen to your commands." Ignius bowed his head in respect because he didn\'t want to further ruin his mood.

"I\'ll send you a picture of a woman\'s picture and I want you to look for her. Once you find her, add her to that list." The master commanded to which the dragon nodded.

"I will carry out your order master," the dragon agreed. He then eyed the body on the ground.

"I\'ll replace him with a doll. I was supposed to use him for a while but my patience ran out while talking with him." Cygnus sighed as he looked at his hand that was stained with blood.

The butler immediately pulled a handkerchief from their dimensional storage and handed it to the master. Cygnus took his time to wipe the blood after he sat down on the couch. He then snapped his fingers and a magic circle appeared on the ground which summoned a doll.

"What will you tell the duke and the general?" Mr. C asked. He thought that the master would let the man live because of the contract he had with the Gineharts. He didn\'t think that the master would kill Lindon immediately.

The master was silent for a while because of the question. He tilted his head from side to side while thinking until he stopped and looked at the butler. "I forgot."

Mr. C could do nothing about the master\'s response. He couldn\'t scold him so he could only close his eyes. "What shall we do then, master?"

Cygnus eyed the bloody body on the ground and with a sigh, he once again snapped his fingers. A black magic circle appeared below the dead body and swallowed it up. After a minute, the circle summoned the body once again but this time Lindon was alive once again.

The adviser to the crown prince looked around as he was still a bit disoriented after what happened. He clearly felt his chest being pierced and he even saw his heart getting ripped out and yet he was still alive. His first instinct was to touch his chest to feel if his wound was still there.

Lindon could still feel the wetness on his clothes but his skin was perfectly intact. He looked down and saw that his mind was not playing tricks on him. It was indeed healed. He kept on touching his chest until he realized something. He even closed his eyes in hopes of hearing his own heartbeat but there was none.

"You won\'t hear anything because I already crushed your heart and replaced it with a magic core that bears my power. I can always stop the core whenever I like, so you\'d better behave." Cygnus answered his unspoken question.

"What did you do to me?" His voice trembled when he heard what the other had to say. He stared at the man with wide eyes as he pushed himself to stand up.

"You should be grateful because I brought you back to life. If not for that contract, I would have left you dead." The master became annoyed because of how slow the other was. \'He was branded as a genius but why was he being all confused,\' the master thought to himself.

"Are you telling me that I\'ve become an undead?" He asked once again. His mind was not yet functioning well.

"What do you think?" Was his only response because he was getting tired of answering Lindon\'s every question.

Mr. C saw that the master was getting more and more annoyed because of the man so he took a step forward and gave Lindon a smile. "Let me take over. Due to a contract, the master decided to revive you and now that you are revived the master is basically your master now too. So, I suggest that you obey whatever the master says if you still want to continue living. And yes, you are basically an undead now."

That made Lindon freeze. He was an undead and he doesn\'t possess a heart. He was breathing and yet he was not alive. A crisp laugh filled the room after he came to that realization.
