Chapter 293 - Lady Nikorei
Chapter 293: Lady Nikorei
After getting the information he wanted, Mike turned and left the meeting room. Timus saw this and quickly followed closely behind.
Ulysses Sabrina did not say anything further. The way she sees it, these two people should be very desperate now. There was no need to talk too much nonsense with them, the more she did, the more she could possibly add on complications. She just needed to quietly wait until the day she needed help from them.
When the two of them were further away, Ulysses Sabrina called over a trusted servant and commanded, “Fetch me Osmond. I have some matters to share with him. After that, I will be taking my leave for a period of time.”
…
Once they left the Castellan’s mansion, Mike slowly took long strides with Timus not too far behind. After a moment of silence, Timus spoke to Mike with a hint of worry in his voice, “Teacher, it doesn’t matter how we’ll get the dragon scale. We’ll find a way no matter what. Even if… I mean a big if, if we really can’t find the dragon scale, it’s okay. I’ll protect you well.”
Timus said these words very sincerely. He seemed to be very worried about Mike’s mood. From Timus’s point of view, Mike must have been feeling very desperate after receiving such bad news.
However, Mike only smiled slightly and said, “It’s alright, you don’t have to worry about this matter. I can handle it myself. Our friend is still waiting for us in front. Let’s not discuss this any further.”
When Timus heard this, he turned his head slightly and looked forward. When he saw Jess at the end of the stairs, he finally remembered this fellow’s existence. The two of them slowly walked to the end of the stairs and arrived at the bottom floor.
Jess looked at the two of them and sized them up to appear intimidating, “It’s over?”
Mike smiled and nodded, “As I said, I’m just here to talk to the elven queen about something. It’s as simple as that.”
There was still a trace of doubt on Jess’s face.
The relationship between humans and elves right now was so tense, what could these two come to talk to the elven queen about?
However, even if Jess did not trust the two, the two of them did come back unscathed. It did not seem like there were any signs of a fight. Even if Timus was very strong, it was impossible to kill the elven queen in such a state.
At least, that was what Jess chose to believe. So, in the end, he did not dwell on this matter anymore.
“In that case, I’ll send you guys out of the Ancient City of War… also, it’s best not to come here for a while. Come again after the war is over.”
The last sentence Jess said was actually for the sake of Mike and Timus’s safety. If it was any other soldier, they would have been captured as suspected spies.
Up until now, this kid still did not know that the agreement had already been negotiated. The war had long ended.
Mike could understand what Jess was trying to say. This was also the reason why Mike admired this young guard very much.
Upright, kind, and not weak.
Mike smiled and said, “Thank you for your reminder, but I can’t leave this city for the time being.”
When Jess heard this, he glared at Mike and said, “F*ck, why aren’t you leaving?”
“…”
For a moment, he actually could not tell whether this young man was cursing or calling his name. However, considering Jess’s honest character, he guessed that the young guard was just calling his name.
However, Mike felt that he sounded strange.
He forcefully suppressed this strange feeling and said, “I wish to look for the psychic in your Ancient City of War. Her name is… Lady Nikorei, right?”
Jess was slightly stunned and was alerted once again when Mike mentioned that name.
“How do you know about Lady Nikorei? Why are you looking for her?”
When Mike saw Jess’s reaction, he was a little surprised. This was because Jess’s reaction was stronger than when he heard Mike say that he was going to look for the elven queen.
It could be seen that this psychic seemed to be respected by the elven race, perhaps even more than the elven queen.
This was good news for Mike. The more it was like this, the more Mike wanted to look for her.
“I just have some mattress I don’t understand and wish to consult her.
“Don’t worry, we won’t do anything suspicious.”
Jess only hesitated for a moment before agreeing. It was through Mike’s sincere attitude that convinced him once again.
“Alright, then I’ll bring you there, but you must show great respect to Lady Nikorei.”
“Don’t worry, I will.”
Mike smiled and promised the young guard.
Jess brought Mike and Timus through one street after another and arrived at the edge of the Ancient City of War. Although this place was very far from the center of the Ancient City of War, it looked o different from the center.
It was the same deserted place.
The three of them walked all the way to a small wooden house. Jess then stopped and said, “This is Lady Nikorei’s residence. Swear you will be polite.”
From Jess’s repeated instructions about being polite, it could be seen that Jess truly respected Lady Nikorei. This made Mike look forward to what kind of information he could get from this psychic.
Jess went forward and gently knocked on the wooden door.
The next moment, an old voice came from inside the door.
“Who is it?”
Hearing this, Mike finally heaved a sigh of relief.
This really was Lady Nikorei’s residence.
Jess answered respectfully.
“Hello, Ms. Lady Nikorei. I’m Jess, the guard.
“Two humans have come to look for you. They say they have some questions they don’t understand and would like to consult you. Would you like to meet them?”
As he said this, Jess turned around and glanced at Mike and Timus. The only thing he could do was to ask Lady Nikorei if she was willing to see them.
If Lady Nikorei was not willing, Jess could only chase these two away. 𝒇𝐫ℯ𝑒𝒘ℯ𝑏n𝑜ѵ𝐞l.c𝗼𝗺
However, after a moment of silence, Lady Nikorei replied, “Let them in.”
Jess turned back to look at Mike again. This time, his expression was slightly surprised, similar to Mike’s.
Normally, when two strangers wish to meet someone, the other party would have to take a look at the appearance of the two before agreeing.
In the end, Lady Nikorei actually agreed without asking further questions. It was hard not to think of Lady Nikorei’s identity.
A psychic!
Could it be that… she had already seen this scene in advance?
Jess did not say anything else, but obediently made way for them. Mike thanked him in a low voice and pushed the wooden door open.
The structure of the wooden house was very simple. There were only a few simple pieces of furniture and nothing else. The room was dim as the only light source was from the sunlight that came through the window.
This also brought a mysterious atmosphere in the wooden house.
After Mike and Timus entered the wooden house, they closed the wooden door to prevent Jess from hearing the conversation.
Looking at Lady Nikorei, who sat at the table in front of them, Mike took a deep breath and started the conversation.
However, before he could speak, Lady Nikorei beat him to it.
“I know the reason for your arrival here and what you wish to ask.”
