Chapter 1277 Charon Perry's death news made public
The following day,
The Perry Family Estate,
The former Magic Lord Callen appears outside. The time he has given for his son is over. He is going to make the announcement today.
But when he arrives at Rhys Perry's home, he finds Rhys Perry not in his house. He then summons Cooper, the current Family Head.
Shortly afterward,
Cooper and other elders arrive at the meeting hall.
Callen is seated in his main seat. He sweeps his gaze across everyone before asking them to take a seat.
Cooper is shocked. His father didn't inform him of anything. He is as clueless as the others. He sits next to his father.
When everyone has arrived, Callen starts the meeting.
"I'm going to disclose important news to the outside world," he says in a solemn tone.
Hearing that, the faces of the elders below change. They seem to think of something. They immediately realize it is about Charon Perry.
Gasp!
People let out a low gasp. The elders are shocked. They look at each other's faces. Everyone knows about their Perry Family's cooperation with other Aristocratic Families.
This news will hit them hard because they know that former Family Head Callen is going to take action himself.
Cooper breaks out into a cold sweat. He never thought it would be this. He thought his brother was working to find out the killer.
"Cooper, make an official announcement about this. Also, post an official reward for a Supreme Magic Artifact. Whoever can find my grandson's killer can have it," old man Callen says in a serious tone.
"This?" Cooper wants to refute. But when he sees his father's eyes, he stops saying anything.
One hour later,
An earth-shattering news spreads across the territory of the True Elements Society. The grandson of the former family head, Charon Perry, was murdered a week ago.
Whoever can find the killer can receive the reward of a Supreme Magic Artifact. This news causes shock and disbelief among the masses.
Who are the Perry Family? They are among the top wizard families under the True Elements Society. If someone from the outside has done it, then it's akin to attacking the face of the True Elements Society.
The news causes fear among the people.

True Elements Society:
When the news reaches the True Elements Society, it immediately creates a shockwave. Especially the Bloodline Beast Department members are in a state of disbelief.
It was announced that the murder happened a week ago. Now they understand why Charon Perry was absent from their class.
Especially the final-year students who couldn't have imagined this was the reason.
Leona Perry is in her class when she hears the news as well. She is taken aback by surprise. She definitely knows it was not her father's decision.
Because her father never wanted the news to be public before they found out about the killer. As far as she knows, the killer has not been found.
This could only mean that her grandfather has taken action. Her eyes flash with helplessness.
Her grandfather will definitely go against Head Howard. When it happens, she has to stand beside her family.
It can't be helped. More than the True Elements Society, she cares about the family. If the True Elements Society is against them, then she has to do everything to help her family.
It doesn't take long for department elders and others to inquire about her. She tells them that the news is true. They are even more shocked.
Leona tells them that their family is looking for the killer. That's why they didn't disclose the news. But their efforts have ended in failure. They still don't know about the killers.
The elders are all tempted by the reward, but they don't know about the killer.
Leona clearly sees greed in everyone's eyes. She knows that hereafter, the True Elements Society won't be the same.
When she tries to blame someone, the image of Vincent Carey comes to her mind.
"I have totally forgotten about this guy. He is living his life," she thinks to herself.

From MC's Perspective:
I am in class listening to the lecture. Suddenly, the lecturer leaves the class after reading some message.
"Something major has happened!"@@novelbin@@
One of the students shouts in the class. Hearing that, I raise my eyebrows in doubt.
"Damn!"
"Shocking news!"
Then the students shout one after another. One of them begins to explain what has happened.
A few minutes later,
My heart is set off into storms. I never thought they would disclose the news so soon. Which means they are desperate to find the killer.
Maybe they have found Rhys Perry gone missing. He is currently rotting in a prison cell along with Aaron Perry and Milo.
"Supreme Artifact, huh?" I think to myself.
But they are never going to find the true killer. There are chances they could target me. I have already gone under their radar.
As long as I don't step outside the campus, I can be safe from the Magic Lord.
Shortly afterward,
Beep!
My communication watch buzzes. When I see that it is from Elder Paul Lin, I know it's about Charon Perry.
I stand up and leave the class under the gazes of everyone. No one would have a clue that it is me. I wonder what their reaction would be if they learned the truth.
With a smile on my face, I make my way toward Elder Paul Lin's office.

Underground Prison:
Rhys Perry regains consciousness. The first thing that comes to his mind is the memories of the last night. When he opens his eyes, he finds himself locked up and chained inside the cell.
He immediately knows he has been captured and imprisoned. He looks at the chain. He knows it's a special chain. It has anti-mana properties.
On the other hand, his mana core has been sealed by a Supreme Wizard. Only another Supreme can lift it.
His eyes flash with anger. He had thought everything would be fine. But they were caught red-handed last night.
