"What is this light and why are you searching my room?!" Jacob tried to stop them but Sabrina had already shoved him aside and entered the room.

Following Sabrina, Michael, Gaya, and everyone standing outside the door entered Jacob's room, ignoring his angry shouts.

Sabrina followed the light trail in Jacob's room to a small two feet tall mahogany cupboard beside his bed.

"Aunty, are you going to tell me what's going on here?" Jacob scowled at Diana,

"It depends on what we find here, Jacob," Diana replied flatly. Since Jacob was little, Diana knew he was always the problem child in the family. He would always get into trouble as his father had to bail him out every time.

His behavior worsened for the last few months for some unknown reason. Last month he almost killed a strumpet by beating her to death, if not for Noah saving the poor girl and healing her in time, she would have died.

Diana could recall dozens of incidents like this in just a few seconds. Although she didn't want to believe it, it wouldn't be a surprise if Jacob had something to do with the poison. If he did something to do with poisoning Andrews, Diana would personally send him into the dungeon before trying him at a family trial.

"Humph, go ahead. Search all you want" Jacob snickered before folding his arms in anger.

"The light trail ends near that cupboard" Michael pointed at the small cupboard to Sabrina.

Still, there was no change on Jacob's face as he knew they wouldn't find anything in his room that would incriminate him.

Sabrina opened the drawer, searching through the contents such as potions, combs, scrolls, and usual stuff that a cultivator would have. She almost closed the drawer before she noticed a glimmer of light coming from under all this stuff. She rummaged through the items to find the light coming from a letter that had no writings on the outside.

Jacob was so busy staring at Ghost, he failed to notice the veins under Sabrina's face popping out. Her eyes instantly turned red as one could hear the sound of her gritting teeth.

Shock and disbelief occupied her face,

"What is it, Sabi?" Amelda asked after sensing the killing intent radiating from Sabrina's body.

The killing intent was so intense that it instantly drew Jacob's attention towards her. He noticed Sabrina standing near the cupboard like she was nailed to the ground, slightly trembling.

"Jacob, everything is in place to kill that bitch Sabrina. I'd make sure it looks like a bandit attack" Sabrina began to read the letter out loud. Her words stunned everyone, including Jacob.

"After killing Sabrina, Alden ordered me to bring an assassin into your home to kill Diana. I'll tell you the details when we meet next. Also, keep the poison you used to poison Andrew safe, we might need it to kill Noah"

Nightmare expected someone to interrupt or ask something but all they did was stand there speechlessly. He almost rolled his eyes when he noticed Gaya pretending to be thoroughly shocked. He had to give it to the snake for her acting skills.

"Victory shall be ours, Giles"

"What?! What is that?" Jacob's body began to shiver after Sabrina finished reading the letter. He had zero clues about how or when a letter like this reached his room.

"I don't know anything about that letter. It's not true!" Jacob shouted.

Even the eyes of Samuel contained a tinge of killing intent hidden within.

"So that's why you want me gone huh?" Michael asked to fan the flames of Sabrina's anger, so she would start attacking him. Just like he planned, she lunged at him, conjuring Arch energy around her fist.

Although she was just a Body Refining stage cultivator, she was extremely quick as Jacob didn't have time to react before she punched him in the chest as hard as she could. If the letter had anyone's name except Jacob's, she would have at least doubted the words on the letter but when it comes to Jacob, she completely believed the letter. Her anger overwhelmed her brain as she almost forgot about Giles's betrayal.

"Ah!" Since Jacob did not conjure Arch energy in time to protect himself, the force of the punch broke a few ribs and sent him flying onto the wall behind him.

"Ask him where the poison is before you vent your anger on him" Michael reminded Sabrina.

"Sabi!"

"Jacob you little bastard!" Even Amelda, the kind-looking lady, lost her composure when it came to Jacob. It was really funny to Michael how they all completely believed the letter he fabricated. Yet, if Jacob wanted to blame someone, he had to blame himself for being an asshole.

"Lady Diana!" Soon, the commotion brought the guards patrolling around the house. They saw their Young Miss drawing her sword as Jacob growling on the ground.

"I know nothing...about that letter" Jacob wanted to tear Sabrina into pieces but he knew attacking her only made him look guiltier. Plus, the guards would rather attack him with Sabrina than protect him because he has a history of abusing the guards.

"Give...me...your...space ring" Sabrina spoke with powerful killing intent. If Jacob truly had nothing to hide, he would have given the space ring to her except he really had a vial of Basilisk venom that he used on Andrew in his space ring as well as the needle ring on his left hand.

"No! This is atrocious. I have nothing to do with anything that letter mentioned"

"The Young master has nothing to worry about. Give your space ring to Young Miss and clear your name" Samuel said, waving his hand at the guards to stay put.

"Paralyzing Wave!" Suddenly, a wave of amethyst-colored wind hit Jacob. When the wave hit Jacob, his entire body froze as they all turned to see Natalia standing beside Diana with her hands reaching out at Jacob.

"Take his space ring!" Natalia's usual soft gentle voice now sounded full of rage. Her golden hair fluttered in the cold wind, making her look domineering and powerful.

Everyone who saw her like this was stunned. Among the three ladies, Natalia was the calmest and kind soul. They had never seen her angry until now.

Sabrina swiftly took the space ring from Jacob's finger while he frantically rolled his eyes. He could not move a muscle in his body.

Michael expected Sabrina to ask his help for breaking the seal on the space ring but she surprised him when she broke the seal using a spell.

The next moment, a bunch of scrolls, ale bottles, swords, potions, and gold coins appeared on the ground. All of them were inside his space ring a moment ago.

Michael looked at all the items on the ground before his gaze landed on a dark purple vial among the potions.

"What do we have here?" Michael made his way to the vial and picked it up.

"Is that Basilisk venom?" Healer Adele quickly recognized the venom.

A few gasps sounded from the guards. Most of them obviously heard about Basilisk, the mere thought of the monster sent a chill running through their spines.

"Yes, this is the venom used to poison Andrews" After pretending to be studying the venom, Michael exclaimed.

"Explain why you have this poison in your space ring Jacob," Diana asked, gently pushing Natalia's hands down to release Jacob from the spell.

"I.I..."

"So it's true...you were plotting to kill me and my mom!"

"Wait!"

But Jacob's cry had no effect on Sabrina as she charged at him again curling up her fist. She punched him in the face,

"Did you hear that?"

"Yes, Young Master Jacob was trying to murder Lady Diana and Young Miss Sabrina"

"Young Master Noah and Young Miss Rowena is going to shred him to pieces"

"It was fortunate that we had Ghost to save Lady Diana in time"

The guards began to chatter among themselves.

The guards didn't know what was written on the letter and those who knew didn't utter a word. They wanted to capture and interrogate Giles without alerting him. Samuel still couldn't completely believe that Captain Giles was plotting with Jacob to harm the Winstons. However, Samuel was old enough to know that people are full of surprises.

"Enough!" Just when Sabrina was about to punch him again, Jacob released a burst of Arch energy to push her away. The violent burst of Arch energy knocked everything in the room such as books, lanterns, and flower vases. The items on the ground were blasted away in many directions.

The burst momentarily broke the effects of the spell cast by Natalia.

"How dare you all treat me like this!" Jacob barked like a mad dog.His neatly combed hair now a mess. Bloodstains on his teeth made him look even worse.

"And you!" Jacob's gaze turned towards Michael.

"Everything went wrong after you came here. You're manipulating them spouting lies about Andrew"

"Really Jacob?" Michael just calmly smiled,

"After all we've seen, you're trying to blame me?" He then looked at Sabrina,

"You should deal with him before he force my hand"

"Fur-"

"Wind blast" Jacob snapped and tried to cast a spell but when he opened his mouth to cast the spell, a wave of wind from Michael's hand blasted him onto the wall again. The force of the wind was so powerful that a web of cracks formed in the wall when Jacob's body collided with the wall.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 200 badass points]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 600 badass points]

Continued bell sounds rang in his head after he blasted Jacob. Wind blast was simple and quick to cast spell. Although the Wind blast was still at level 2, his current cultivation level significantly did not affectboosted all of his spells' power.

Jacob hit the ground with a thud sound but he didn't move after falling down. The wind blast knocked him out. Sabrina gave a short nod of approval at Michael. Michael only got three thousand badass points since Michael did not use any fancy spells such as Ring of Fire or Ignitia.

Yet Michael was glad that he almost earned 15k badass points ever since he came to Pen Town. He wanted to do the first thing after earning a couple of more thousand badass points and settle his debt of badass points.

" Meet me at the training hall," Sabrina ordered Samuel. Amid this chaos, she didn't forget about Giles. She wanted to interrogate Jacob more before taking any actions against Giles.
