Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs her irritation died down, a thought flashed through her mind.
Wait! Felicia froze, staring blankly at her hand as suspicion crept into her mind. Could it be that someone had cursed her? The sound of the bell could be a means to manipulate her, using the curse placed on her as a medium to take control! If that were true, her investigation would have been in the wrong direction! The real culprit affecting her wasn't the bell. It was a curse! Felicia had checked her pulse and found everything normal, which was why she hadn't considered this possibility. She had assumed that the mysterious bronze bell was to blame.
But how could she have heard it in different locations if it were truly the bell? It simply didn't add up! It she looked at it from the perspective of curses, everything made sense! Whoever was behind the curse didn't need to be near her. With the help of venomous creatures, they could use the bell to control the venomous creature inside her body.
Felicia placed her fingers on her pulse. It was steady with a trace of fatigue. Other than that, she didn't feel any signs of being poisoned.

It was happening again! She gripped her hand tightly to fight off the urge. But before she could focus, a shadow fell over her, accompanied by the familiar voice she had heard on the phone last night. "Boss, what are you doing in this godforsaken place? It's so remote. There's no airport or train station. I had to call a helicopter to get here. You'd better payfor the travel expenses!" It was none other than the mercenary, Scarlet.
Scarlet set out immediately after she accepted Felicia's request. She was dressed in her signature leatherm jacket and pants, her hair cascading down her shoulders. She looked feminine yet bold and was as striking as ever. She carried a black bag slung over her shoulder. There was no doubt it contained weapons.
Felicia struggled to suppress her trembling hands. Her voice wasm hoarse, but she managed a smile. "Perfect timing. You're just in time. Did you bring any ropes? Theup!" payback. But
"What?" Scarlet was in disbelief. Even as a mercenary, Felicia's request left her speechless. Boss, Punderstand if you don't want to pay isn't this going too far?"
