Chapter 1469
Austin raised his head and sighed. Then he began to laugh at his stupidity, innocence, and self-

The faint but refreshing fragrance calmed his anxious heart. This was the supposed result of the
experiment. Little did he expect he would be the first test subject for it. However, in addition to soothing
his mind, it reduced the pain.
There were no other uses for this vial, and Austin almost contemplated drinking it. He quickly covered

At this time, the door opened again, but no sound of high heels followed. Whoever entered seemed on
