"Please provide the criminal's name and their bounty number," the officer requested, his tone indifferent as he glanced at Emery, noting his half-moon magus rank.
Emery complied, and as soon as the officer read the data, his eyes widened in disbelief.
"This… is a grand magus-level criminal! Is this a mistake?"
Emery was swiftly escorted to another room, where he presented his proof: Mo Yan's cold, headless corpse, accompanied by the severed head. The sight was enough to startle even the most seasoned magus. The remains were promptly sent for verification, and after a thorough examination, the officer returned, visibly shaken.
"Please wait a moment, sir. I need to call my superior."
