Chapter 254
“She’s dead? Just like that?” Tony found it unbelievable.
She was one of the very few girls he’d ever fallen for at first sight.
And more than that, she was very likely the one that important figure had tasked him with finding for so long.
Yet before Tony could even confirm if she was the right person, she just died.
Panicked, he quickly turned to the old woman and pressed. “She really died? Are you sure there’s no chance she survived?”
The old woman looked at Tony’s almost soul–lost expression and sighed. “At least a ninety percent chance.
Tony still looked grim upon hearing that, but at least a sliver of hope remained in his heart.
The old woman didn’t say anything more to him and instead handed a finely crafted silver ring to Raven.
She said. “This was her ring. You take it. I already checked it. There’s nothing particularly valuable inside, but there might be something useful for you.”
Raven didn’t put on any airs. She simply nodded and accepted it with a “Thanks.”
Then, she immersed her consciousness into the ring. Soon, the contents of the spatial storage in the ring appeared in her mind. Most of it was useless clutter.
But before long, Raven suddenly raised an eyebrow. Three items appeared in her hand.
Tony’s eyes immediately locked onto w token among them. “This is…?”
He quickly stepped closer to Raven and stared at the token, a look of realization dawning on his face.
Tony exclaimed, “No wonder I couldn’t find any trace of her, even after searching every nation. Turns out she’s from one of the Eight Reclusive Families. One of the only places I didn’t dare to set foot in!”
He hesitated, then looked at Raven and asked, “Can I buy that token from you?”
Raven didn’t answer directly but countered, “You want to go to the Valor family to see if she’s still alive?”
Tony replied, “Whether she’s alive or dead, I have to confirm if she’s the one I’ve been looking for!”
Raven smiled. “I can tell you right now. She’s not.”
Tony frowned slightly at Raven’s firm tone. “How do you know she’s not?”
Raven gave a faint smile, filled with unmistakable confidence. “Simple. The person you’ve been looking for is me.”
Tony found it unbelievable.
Her look didn’t look the same at all. Moreover, she was missing a mole around her eye.
But then he remembered how Raven had just whipped that woman so hard her flesh tore open, and. He thought maybe voicing that thought wasn’t the smartest move.
Raven could clearly read his mind. She subtly ground her teeth.
Which idiot decided she’d look the same after being reborn? If she ever found out, she would definitely beat him up first thing.

Still, she didn’t press Tony any further on that and instead changed the subject. “Who issued the bounty?
92%
Tony immediately understood why she’d shamelessly claimed to be the target. She was fishing for the identity of the bounty
In that case, it made sense.
He chuckled. “Sorry, Unless I can confirm you’re really the one he’s looking for, I can’t tell you?
Raven casually tossed the token in her hand.
She asked, “How about a trade? This token, for the name of the one who issued the bounty?”
Tony didn’t even hesitate to shake his head. “No can do. It’s a rule in this line of work. We don’t break it.”
Raven asked again. “Then can you at least pass a message to him for me?”
Tony replied firmly, “Nope. I don’t have the right to contact him until I find the person he’s looking for.”
Raven was fed up with him.
She was starting to seriously suspect this stubborn man was forcing her to return to her previous appearance.
