Chapter 745 - Darkness Falls (XII) (2/2)
“…”
The entire room went into silence. Mini Bubble Gum puckered her brows while Canary held a finger to her chin. Rhode’s and Orchid Heart’s expression remain unchanged.
“Got it, Nell.”
Rhode nodded and gestured to her.
“We have something else to discuss. You may leave first.”
“Yes, Master.”
Nell turned around, left the room, and shut the door. Rhode wasn’t worried that she would do something in his disfavor. The curse oath bound her soul and body, where it would make her taste torturous pain whenever she harbored any sinister thoughts. Moreover, Rhode was confident in grasping the Dark Elves’ aura. At this moment, he sensed that she stood in the shadow around the stairs. It was apparent that she was still confused about her current position after she was ‘reborn’. But Rhode wasn’t in the mood to console her.
Rhode let out a bitter smile.
“This time… Our troubles are really huge, everyone.”
“Yes… Leader. Huge trouble…”
Mini Bubble Gum revealed a bitter smile too while Canary sighed helplessly and shook her head.
“Is anything the problem, Mr. Rhode?”
Marlene looked curiously. Then, she shifted her gaze to Canary and Mini Bubble Gum. She didn’t understand what left the three of them were feeling so helpless about. Marlene remembered that Rhode and Canary were always confident and never showed such emotions. What was the reason behind this…?
“Is it about the Night Wyvern?”
“We don’t really care if it’s just an ordinary Night Wyvern, Marlene…”
Mini Bubble Gum shook her head, lifted her teacup, and pursed her lips. However, she just didn’t drink.
“The problem lies in the name.”
“Name?”
What’s wrong with the name? The Night Wyvern seems like a troublesome enemy. But… Why haven’t I heard anything about a powerful being named Erin in the Country of Darkness?
Marlene pondered.
“You haven’t heard this name before, but I can give you a short, simple introduction.”
Rhode let out a bitter laugh.
“In the Country of Darkness, there’s only one Night Wyvern named Erin, whom they call Her Highness. You may not know her, but I’m sure you know who her older brother is.”
Rhode paused.
“The current Dragon Soul Heir of the Country of Darkness—the Dark Dragon Ion.”
