Chapter 19 - He Cut the Mercer Family Off
The red chain led to a private Mercer vault beneath the Aurora Crown.
Mason did not enter the casino.
He did not need to.
Debt-Cutting Palm worked through the claim itself.
He stood on a parking garage roof across the street, raised his glowing hand, and chopped downward.
The chain snapped.
Pain tore through him.
Then fortune rushed back.
Not money.
Possibility.
His senses sharpened.
Old aches disappeared.
His breathing deepened.
[COPPER MERIDIANS 9/9.]
[REALM BREAKTHROUGH: COPPER LUCK — PEAK.]
[STRENGTH +9. AGILITY +8. VITALITY +11.]
Across the street, the Aurora Crown suffered twelve minor disasters at once.
A fountain pipe burst.
Three elevators stopped.
A chandelier lost power.
Blake Mercer walked out of a limo and immediately stepped into an open maintenance bucket.
Tasha filmed it from the car.
"For historical records."
Mason laughed until the Ledger flashed.
[WARNING: DEBT REVERSAL EXPOSED REGISTERED THEFT.]
[HOUSE MERCER HAS LOST 47,221 UNITS OF STORED FORTUNE.]
[HOUSE MERCER MAY PURSUE LEGAL, FINANCIAL, OR MARTIAL REMEDY.]
"Legal?"
Ivy looked at him. "Cultivator courts."
"There are magic lawyers?"
Raymond groaned. "Worse."
A golden subpoena appeared in midair and slapped Mason across the face.
