Ero Meter - Chapter 195: Question.
“Are you crazy? You clearly saw what just happened here right?” Faneel looked at Feba with a dumbfounded expression.
They have just witnessed people disappearing into some sort of portal and it was not normal.
“I don’t care how strange all this is, I can’t just stand when his life is in danger,” Feba said and closed her eyes.
She then remembered the spell that Rebecca had just said.
“Rage Fire of the deadly dragons!” Feb said and then opened her eyes again, she looked at the Rock with a glimmer in her eyes.
“Feba are you fucking serious! We should at least inform the higher-ups about our situation.” Faneel said with a desperate expression on his face.
“Transmit them the information.” Feba looked at him with draped eyes.
“Guess what, the transmitters are not working after we reached here, I think we need to make distance from this Rock to make them work,” Faneel said.
“I don’t have time.” Feba looked ahead again and saw the small portal starting to expand. “You should go back and inform the superiors while I go inside.” She said and started stepping towards the stone.
“You will die in there. Haven’t you seen how many trained people entered the portal before us?” Faneel tried to put some sense in her brain, however, he failed.
Feba continued to step towards the portal silently and just before she was about to enter she sighed and looked back.
“He will die too if I don’t help him.” She said and finally stepped inside.
And just as she did so her figure disappeared in the black fog.
Faneel looked at the portal starting to collapse and gritted his teeth. “She is always so bossy!” He took in a deep breath and then ran towards the portal with his bags in his hands.
And just before the portal closed he jumped inside.
And soon enough silence covered the whole place again.
….
“Mother, this is Boseman palace.” Echo pointed at a giant palace, near an empty beach around Scarborough.
Vieva looked at the old abandoned palace and took in a deep breath. “So there are no surviving members of this family left?” She looked at Echo and asked.
“Yes, mother.” Echo nodded, not saying what was more than necessary.
Vieva listened to her and then moved her gaze to the old palace again.
“Let’s go inside,” Vieva said and her figure started floating towards the big palace.
Echo followed her. “Mother…” She said suddenly.
“What?” Vieva asked without looking at her.
“Umm… Everything from their family was auctioned about ten years ago, I think this palace is empty.” She murmured.
When Vieva heard her word, she suddenly stopped in her tracks and turned her head around to look at Echo.
“Do you have the list of people who bought the stuff?” Vieva asked with her brows raised as a headache started assaulting her brain.
If the spell was also auctioned it would increase her work by a lot.
“It was a private auction and buyers” identities were kept anonymous,” Echo explained as she moved her head down in shame.
Vieva stood at her place and took in a deep breath. “Do you know who auctioned the stuff?” She asked.
“Yes.” Echo nodded.
“Go and get information out from those people, kill them or torture them, I need information about every single piece of items that was sold from this place,” Vieva said and with her each word her voice got angrier.
A shudder moved through Echo’s body when she heard Vieva’s angry voice and she nodded quickly.
“Yes Mother,” she said and disappeared.
After she was gone Vieva looked at the Palace again and sighed. “Things are getting more and more complicated.” She thought and quickly flew towards the palace.

Jack suddenly opened his eyes and looked around.
“Where am I?” He stood up from his place and saw endless grassland around him.
There was a bright shining sun in the sky and as far as he could see there was only grassland.
“This…” Jack saw his surroundings and took in a deep breath he never thought that he would see such scenery after entering the portal.
Just now he was in snowy mountains, and now he was in green grassland, he couldn’t even see a single tree in his line of sight, and the snow was also not visible.
Jack thought for a bit and then picked up his bags, he then started to move towards a random direction.
Rebecca and the team also found themselves in the big grassland with nothing around them.
“What is this place?” Ren moved towards Rebecca and murmured.
“I don’t know.” She said and stood up from the grass. The rest of the people also stood up.
“Do you think it’s some sort of illusion?” Ren said again.
“I don’t know,” Rebecca repeated her words.
She herself was confused with the scenery in front of him.
Ren listened to her and took in a deep breath.
“Let’s move and find something.” He said and started moving with a serious expression on his face.
The soldiers behind him also nodded and started to move, while Rebecca stood at her place for a few seconds and after taking in a deep breath she finally moved forward.
…
“I told you that we should not have entered this place!” Faneel complained as he walked behind Feba with an annoyed expression on his face.
“I never asked you to come.” Feba kept walking with a determined expression on her face.
“Fuck this! Do you think I can leave you alone? You have saved my life so many times…” Faneel sighed and looked at the grassland.
“Thanks for coming.” Feba stooped and looked at Faneel. “I really appreciate it. However, I have to make one thing clear. No matter what I will not leave this place without Jack.” She said.
Faneel listened to her and turned silent for a few seconds and after that, he sighed. “We have been walking on this grass for the past three hours and we haven’t found anything other than more grass.” He said.
Feba listened to his words and turned silent, she was in no mood to argue with him so she turned around and continued to walk.
“Ahh… You are always so stubborn.” Faneel complained again and started following her.
…..
“Who are you?” Jack looked at a small girl standing in front of him.
She was wearing a frock and a shirt with black hair that was combed in a ponytail.
“It doesn’t matter.” The small girl said and giggled. “I want to ask you a question.” She said again.
Jack listened to the girl and looked at the vast grassland, he had been walking for hours and just as he was about to sit down to rest, this girl appeared in front of him.
“Why?” Jack raised his brows.
He could tell that the small girl was not normal and she could do magic just like Vieva and the Old Beggar.
“Hehehe…” The small girl giggled. “I am the one that wants to ask a question. So why are you asking?” She looked at Jack with her head slightly tilted.
Jack turned silent at her words and after a long pause, he finally opened his mouth. “What will I get if I answer your question?” He asked with a curious tone.
The girl in front of him could be his way to the Ring of Power.
He was about to ask his notebook for directions but the girl appeared before him.
“Hehehe…” The girl giggled again. “It depends on whether you answer the question right or wrong.” She said and stepped forward a bit.
“What if I answered it correctly?” Jack asked and took a step back, he wanted to keep some distance between himself and the strange girl.
“Hehehe…” The girl giggled again looking at his actions.
“I have a compass, I can give you that if you answer it correctly.” She said and also stepped back.
“Compass?” Jack raised his brows.
“Yes, a compass, it’s pretty good at telling the directions.” She said with a smile.
Jack listened to her and contemplated a bit. “What if I answered your question wrongly?” He asked.
“Hehehe… Now you have asked the right question.” She said in an amused tone. “If you answered my question wrong or if you didn’t answer at all then I will kill you.” The girl said and her smile turned wide.
She looked a bit creepy.
Jack listened to her words and took a deep breath.
‘This compass could help me get the Ring…’ Jack guessed and started silently for almost a minute, weighing the pros and cons of her offer.
“Can I get help to answer your question?” Jack asked.
“Help?” The girl laughed out loudly. “Sure you can get help if you can, you just have to answer my question in ten minutes after I ask it.” She said and looked around
“But I wonder who will you get help from?” She said again.
