My Triling System

185 Chapter 185: A Secret

The students could only open their mouth in surprise as they listen to George tell them a lot of lie.

Lexa was more surprised by this than the others. She knew her sister so well. She wouldn’t have anything to do with someone as George, not less to date him.

She has her own taste and Lexa could guess the type of guy her sister would choose. She’s not the type to date a sleek looking liar as the one in front of them.

Kevin was wondering if George hadn’t lied to them about his name too. They were at the point of not believing whatever comes from his mouth cause it will always be a lie.

After rambling about the relationship life of himself and Lina, Lexa sighed and said; “How about I tell you a more interesting secret?”

“Sure, but nothing is more interesting than my own story.”

“Do you know that Lina Monroe is my sister. I’m the second daughter of the first leader, and I know the faces of every other kids from other families.” Lexa revealed.

“What? Are you kidding me?”

“I don’t know who you are but that robe belongs to my father. It was stolen a few weeks ago and I guess you are the thief we have been searching for.” Lexa said. f𝔯ℯe𝓌ℯ𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵel.c𝚘𝐦

“Hey take it easy. I told you I don’t like to reveal things about myself. What I said previously wasn’t really the truth. Hear me out this time, I’ll tell you the truth.”

“I… I am the son of a concubine to the third leader. He gave me this robe to put on anytime I wish to visit him,… you know concubines don’t get to move freely unlike the main wives. Same for her child. But my father said I’m welcomed to visit him at any time. So he gave me this Daunting robe to put on anytime I feel like visiting him.”

Lexa shook her head as she listen to George make up excuses that aren’t true.

“You are a goddamn liar and won’t stop lying. That robe belongs to my father!” Lexa yelled with anger.

“How could it be your father’s. He’s not the only one having this type of robe.” George argued despite being wrong.

“Of course he’s the only one fond of wearing traditional dresses like this. And I recognize it so well, It has the same design as my father’s. If I check the inside of the robe, I’m sure you’ll find our family crest on it.”

“Lexa, are you sure about this?” Kevin asked.

“Of course I am. I knew from the get go that he was lying, I only said this robe was worn by the six leaders just to see his reaction. His reply proved to me that he stole it.” Lexa said.

“In that case, we’ll have to deal with the liar and thief. Take off the robe now.” Kevin yelled at George.

Because of the amount of crowds around them, the soldiers up front weren’t able to notice what was happening between Kevin and George at the back.

“Wait, Now?” George looked around and saw people staring at him. He felt a little embarrassed been treated like this.

He wanted to do something but he couldn’t. He was able to copy a single type of magic and he had only an earth magic with him presently. He didn’t know the kind of magic that these students have, so he decided to play dumb till he finds a way of escaping.

He tilted his head to the back as he tried to spot someone with teleportation magic but then, Kevin snatched the fan that was in his hand away from him and pointed its sharp edge at him.

‘How I wish I had my sword.’ Kevin said as he recalled his weapon being held by mrs Norby.

Before he leaves for the forbidden forest, he’ll make sure to retrieve back his sword, although he’ll be more careful not to get bloodlust while using it.

Kevin pointed the edge of the fan toward George’s vital point at his neck region.

“Tell me who you are and how you got this robe.”

“Please, I-I... I’ll give you everything you have. Is it money? Clothes? Gold? Swords? I promise to give you whatever you want.” George pleaded.

“Do you what I need right now? You! I want your life. You said you’ll give me whatever I want, then I look forward to you stabbing yourself to death.”

“What?? No, please, I can’t do that. I don’t want to die now.”

“Tell me what I want to know. Is that too hard to tell?” Kevin said as he moved sharp edge of the fan closer to his neck.

“No! No! it’s just that, I don’t know if I can entrust you with this secret.” George said.

“What secret?”

“I’m on a mission to find something in the forbidden forest.” George whispered.

Kevin’s eyes widened as he heard the word forbidden forest.

Seeing how George hesitated to tell him must mean that his mission was top secret. But what could be so important that he was searching for in the forbidden forest? Hope this is not another made-up lie from George.

“How do you expect me to trust you?” 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

“Please believe me. I’ll tell you everything you want to know, just don’t kill me. I’m an orphan and only survive by stealing people’s things and magic.”

“You steal magics?” Lexa asked.

“It’s not like stealing, I copy them.”

“Oh, so you copy magics like Lexa.” Azura said smiling.

“Does she also have a copy magic?” George was surprised. “So far you’re the first person I’ll see having the same magic as mine. How many can you copy?”

“Presently, three. Although it could increase anytime soon.” Lexa said with a smirk.

“Wow, you’re stronger than me. I can only copy one. I’ve been working on learning my second magic though.”

“Lexa already has a second magic. Ice magic. She’s stronger than you think.” Azura said and Lexa could only grin satisfactorily at Azura’s hyping.

Kevin grabbed George’s hand and put them behind his back.

“You still have time to talk? I guess you must have forgotten that you’re my prisoner now.”
