My Love Debts Are Everywhere - Chapter 473

Chapter 473: The Proof of Doubt
“Fiona possesses holy power… and a hero’s destiny?”

Miranda looked down at Fiona, her expression a mix of confusion and complexity.

Leon let out a small sigh and nodded. “Yes, and I only learned about it from Liliana last night. That’s why I want to confirm it myself.”

“But I’m worried something might go wrong if I do this alone. So, I need your help.”

Miranda narrowed her eyes before giving a firm nod. “Don’t worry, Master. Leave everything to me.”

Hearing her reassurance, Leon felt a wave of relief. With Miranda by his side, he didn’t have to be overly concerned about Fiona’s safety.

He turned to Fiona and gently ruffled her hair.

“Fiona, I need to examine your body. The process might hurt a little, but I promise I won’t let you suffer,” Leon explained carefully. “Are you okay with that?”

Fiona’s adorable expression turned determined as she replied, “Don’t worry, Daddy! I’ll try my best not to cry!”

Leon’s lips curved into a faint smile as he softly caressed her cheek.

“That’s my brave little girl,” he praised warmly.

Then, he turned to Miranda. “You can begin.”

Miranda nodded and placed her hand on Fiona’s head. “Sorry, Fiona. If it hurts, just bear with it for a bit, okay?”

Fiona clenched her hands together and nodded firmly. “Don’t worry, Sister Miranda.”

Satisfied with her resolve, Miranda closed her eyes, and a radiant purple light glowed from her palm.

Leon observed intently from the side, his arms crossed over his chest.

He could only hope that nothing would go wrong and that everything would proceed as expected.

Two minutes passed, and then—something strange happened. Fiona’s body began to glow with a bright gray light.

Moments later, golden and black chains materialized around her, binding her tightly.

The sight left both Miranda and Leon utterly stunned.

“These chains…” Leon started, but before he could finish, Miranda abruptly cut in.

“These are the Chains of Rules!”

Leon turned to her, confusion evident in his expression. “Chains of Rules? What are they, Miranda?”

Miranda didn’t answer immediately. She remained silent for a moment before finally explaining, “The Chains of Rules are a powerful sealing technique that combines both holy power and chaos power. The golden chains are a manifestation of holy power, while the black chains originate from chaos power.”

“They are incredibly strong—anyone bound by them is completely unable to break free. However, these chains do have a weakness. Their power diminishes over time, but the process is extremely slow—it can take hundreds, even thousands of years.”

She paused briefly, taking a deep breath before continuing, “If I remember correctly, the Evil God was sealed using these very Chains of Rules, preventing him from escaping the Desert of Chaos.”

Her words struck Leon like a bolt of lightning. Without hesitation, he crouched down beside Fiona.

“Do you feel any pain or anything strange?” Leon asked anxiously, his gaze fixed on the chains wrapped around the little girl’s body.

Seeing his concern, Fiona reached out and gently stroked his face.

“Don’t worry, Daddy. I don’t feel any pain. On the contrary, it feels warm and nice,” she replied with an innocent smile.

Leon let out a sigh of relief, pressing a hand to his chest. “Thank goodness. If you were in pain, I might have lost my mind.”

Fiona was his precious daughter, and he couldn’t bear to see her suffer.

If she had to endure it, he would rather take her place. Of course, his deep affection extended not only to Fiona but also to Iris, Charlotte, and Stella.

“Don’t worry, Master. I can sense that these chains aren’t harmful or life-threatening to Fiona. In fact, they seem to be protecting her—keeping her body stable and safe.”

Miranda’s words caught Leon off guard, but his surprise quickly faded, replaced by a sense of relief.

However, confusion soon crept back into his mind: who had placed these chains on Fiona?

“Wait… Was it Old Man Nolan?” Leon’s eyes widened. He couldn’t think of anyone else capable of such a feat.

Besides, Liliana had mentioned that the middle-aged man had come to help Fiona.

Noticing the shift in Leon’s expression, Miranda asked, “Master, do you know who did this?”

Leon gave a small nod and was about to respond when Fiona suddenly spoke up.

“It was that kind-hearted blind uncle, Sister Miranda.”

Miranda tilted her head slightly, confusion evident in her eyes. “Blind uncle?”

“That mysterious middle-aged man I mentioned before,” Leon interjected. “You still remember him, don’t you?”

“Oh! I remember now!” Miranda’s eyes widened before she nodded.

However, amazement and doubt soon clouded her expression. “But how could he have placed the chains of rules on Fiona? Do you know why, Master?”

Leon shook his head. “I have no idea. That man is incredibly mysterious and powerful. Even if I went all out, I’m not sure I could defeat him.”

He stood up, staring at his right fist with a complicated expression.

For some reason, he couldn’t grasp the full extent of the man’s power.

Even after regaining his strength, he still felt a lingering sense of helplessness and weakness when facing him.

Pushing aside his uncertainty, Leon turned to Miranda and asked, “With the chains of rules in place, can you still verify whether Fiona truly possesses the holy power of heroes and a hero’s destiny?”

Miranda gave a confident nod. “Don’t worry, Master. Even with the chains of rules, I can create a small opening to examine her body.”

Leon smiled in satisfaction. “Good.”

Miranda touched the chains, and instantly, radiant gold and black light burst forth.

At the same time, the chains binding Fiona gradually loosened—though not entirely—but just enough for Miranda to examine the holy power within her.

Her fingers moved carefully from the chains to Fiona’s forehead.

*Buzz!*

A shocking sight unfolded before them. Fiona’s eyes shone with an intense white light, while a golden star slowly took shape on her forehead.

An overwhelming surge of holy power erupted from her body, shooting straight into the ceiling of the training area. Fortunately, the place was fortified with protective magic and powerful enchantments.

Without them, the walls and ceiling might have crumbled to dust.

Leon’s heart pounded as he took in the scene before him, his eyes widening in sheer disbelief.

“No way… This—this is truly the holy power and a hero’s destiny!”
