Chapter 817: Chapter 817: Emily Hearne

Scarlett Jennings decided on the student exchange at the Mystic Academy without hesitation. At that time, she did not know that within the Academy of Mystique, even the mere kindergarten classes were not to be underestimated.

Although she only formally met Ianthe Hearne, a "senior" during this visit, Scarlett Jennings didn’t mind.

She wanted to discover the true form of the nine-tailed fox from Samuel Chalmers’ dream, and she could investigate slowly after entering the Academy of Mystique.

Demon cubs are generally easier to get information from compared to the older Great Demons.

Well, at least the ones she had interacted with were like this.

...

Scarlett Jennings and Magnolia Hearne left the manor, not moving into the house that Luca Jennings had arranged in advance, but instead, they stayed in the small courtyard that Magnolia Hearne had previously purchased in the Capital Metropolitan for the Demon Clan territory.

Since she decided to enter the Academy of Mystique, it was more convenient for Scarlett Jennings to integrate into the Demon Clan.

As for the so-called Demon Clan territory, it refers to some areas separately designated for the Demon Clan, where, apart from some special humans, few ordinary people would enter or even buy and sell properties.

Occasionally, if someone mistakenly entered, as long as they didn’t make any drastic moves, the residents inside wouldn’t do anything to them.

And such territories were designated in five locations on the entire map of Capital Metropolitan.

Among them, the one centered by the Fox Tribe was exactly where the Academy of Mystique was located.

"This place is the small courtyard where I lived alone after moving out of the Hearne Family. It’s not big, but it’s enough for two people. I had someone clean it before I came back."

Magnolia Hearne said, looking at Scarlett Jennings, with some hesitation in her eyes,

"Scarlett, are you sure you don’t want me to stay with you?"

She was referring to staying in Capital Metropolitan to accompany Scarlett during her time in the Fox Tribe territory.

Scarlett Jennings just shook her head when she heard this,

"Mom, although by the Demon Clan’s age calculation I’m still young, by human calculation, I’m already an adult."

How could an adult attending school need to have a parent accompany them the entire time?

Moreover, overprotective care cannot allow a person to truly grow up.

This journey to Capital Metropolitan was a trip she had to undertake alone after all.

Magnolia Hearne, as a mentor, understood this logic well.

However, as a mentor, and as a mother’s mentality are ultimately different.

Though she decided to let Scarlett Jennings stay alone, Magnolia Hearne still spent the night with her.

The demon neighbors around them had already drawn in their tails and were quietly grumbling as Magnolia Hearne’s aura spread,

"Wasn’t Magnolia Hearne supposed to have left the clan? Why has she returned?"

"She left but did not betray the clan. If she truly betrayed us, how could Cassian Wolf allow her into the Capital Metropolitan territory? And even let her go to the Hearne Garden on the outskirts?"

"Though she went there, the great Hearne (her mother) didn’t see her, did she?"

"More than that, I’m more interested in the strange scent she brought along with her! Hmph, this Magnolia, it’s one thing to return on her own, but she actually brought someone back to sleep!"

"Eh, it seems like it’s not just a person either..."

The murmurs of the little demon neighbors were quickly silenced by clouds covering the moonlight, plunging into the darkness of the night.

On the other side,

In the suburbs, at Hearne Garden.

Aaron Hearne stood alone in front of the Soul Tree after Scarlett Jennings and Magnolia Hearne left, trying to sense the lingering demonic power aura of Scarlett Jennings but to no avail.

For a long time, he gazed at the tree of Soul Bells, murmuring softly,

"I hope you’re not really..."

Otherwise, Magnolia Hearne would really risk everything against him.

After guarding the Soul Tree quietly for a while, Aaron Hearne then turned and walked towards the direction of the backyard.

His figure instantly teleported from one end of the corridor to the other, quickly passing through the rockeries, appearing before a delicately beautiful dwelling.
