As such, Amelia was able to bear the pain of the acupuncture easily.
After the acupuncture treatment was completed, the limp muscles in Amelia's legs began to twitch.
Her legs seemed to flesh themselves out as her dead muscles swelled with life again.
Her veins were rejuvenated, and blood began to flow and circulate in her legs again.
Zeke smiled. “Amelia, try moving your legs and see if you can do it.”
Amelia looked down at her own legs, gritted her teeth in concentration, and tried to move them.
She saw her calves obediently shifting a little.
It's a miracle!
It was a magical moment for Amelia.
She was so elated that she shouted out loud, “Zee, look! I can move my legs! You really healed me, and I can walk
and dance like the other children now! Can I go out and play, Zee?”
Zeke quickly shook his head. “Amelia, your leg muscles have just begun to heal, and they have not fully recovered
yet. It will take a few days before you can start jumping about. Soon, I'll take you on short walks so that you can

“Thank you, Zee!”
Amelia was so excited by her healed legs. She moved them from time to time to remind herself that she was not
dreaming.
Zeke dropped by Emma's ward to check on her.
She was out of critical condition, but she had a severe concussion and needed rest. So, Zeke did not disturb her
sleep.
Emma was now incapable of taking care of herself, and Amelia still needed someone to watch over her. Zeke could
not just walk away.
After thinking it over, he decided to send Emma back to her hometown and let her family take care of her and
Amelia.
He called Sole Wolf and asked him to investigate Emma's family and background information.
“I'll get to it right away,” Sole Wolf replied immediately. “By the way, our interrogation of Sixtus has made some
progress.”
“Tell me!” Zeke commanded impatiently.
“Sixtus has confessed that he found Daemonium and Warren by tracking Emma's father's consciousness,” Sole
Wolf reported.
Huh?
Zeke frowned. Doubt filled his mind. “Tracking Emma's father's consciousness? How did they manage to do that?”
“Emma's father implanted dreams into her mind. He did that using his consciousness to interfere with her mind,”
Sole Wolf explained.
“Netherworld! That's one way to track mental energy!” Zeke said. The idea had dawned on him suddenly. “If
Emma's father were to implant a dream into her mind again, could we also track his mental energy to locate him?”
“Theoretically, yes, it's possible,” Sole Wolf said, frowning slightly. “However, when I asked Cygnus Room whether it
was possible to track mental energy, the answer I got was that it would be difficult.”
“If there is even the slightest possibility, notify Cygnus Room to do whatever it takes to develop a way to track
mental energy!”
“Got it!” Sole Wolf said affirmatively.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThen, the line went dead.
Not long after that, Zeke received a detailed report about Emma's family from Sole Wolf.
Emma was the only child in her family. Her mother's name was Madeline Lowe. Since her father's mysterious
disappearance, the pair of mother and daughter had been dependent on each other.
Emma also had an uncle, Desmond Jones, who was on bad terms with Emma's family. He had treated her family
even more terribly after her father's disappearance.
The report also stated that Emma had given birth to Amelia out of wedlock.
However, even Sole Wolf could not find out the identity of Amelia's biological father.
Zeke thought that there was something fishy about the fact that Emma had given birth out of wedlock.
Zeke drove Amelia and the still-unconscious Emma back to Emma's hometown.
It was a tiny, forgotten neighborhood in the outskirts of a nearby province.
When they arrived, a large moving truck was parked in front of Emma's house.
The movers were busy moving items out of her house.
An elderly couple was directing the workers about.
Zeke recognized them immediately.
