War Destiny Of Future - 167 Chapter 159

“You know about that nullifying magic.” said Chris who hasn’t said anything since Dominic start explaining about the quest.

“Yes, I had noticed that the moment the three of you stepped into this room, just like you noticed that I’m an angel.” said Dominic before opened up his milky white wings in front three of them.

Chris sighed and given up all of his fake politeness, turning back into his usual self.

“Since you already know everything, then I have no reason to hide it anymore. Care to explain why you make people consume that brainwashing magic herbs before they enter the town?” Chris asked in his usual casual passive-aggressive tone.

“I have a good reason to do that, don’t worry, it’s not for anything bad.” said Dominic, rather surprised with Chris’s sudden attitude change.

Chris nodded in a rather sarcastic manner.

“I see, please give us the location, we will investigate it for you, but whether or not we would solve it for you, it depends on your cooperation and how we feel about the worthiness of this deal.” said Chris.

“Don’t worry about that, you will.” said Dominic with a rather warm smile. Then they leave the room.

A while later after the three had left, a man in clergy outfit entered the room with a cup of tea, he bows at Dominic before serving him that cup of tea.

“Your Grace, you seem to be in a good mood today.” said the man.

“I am? Hmm… Indeed I am.” said Dominic, in a really good mood.

“Would you mind sharing with me, Your Grace?” the man asked.

“That boy has the same eyes as Arianna.” said Dominic before taking a sip of the tea…

Meanwhile, secret base. Ai and Yuki are having their lunch in the cafeteria, Jason did not join them as he is busy with his own work while Maria is out for a walk at the town (Central City).

“I wonder what Seito and others are doing right now?” said Yuki.

“Maybe they are having their lunch as well?” said Ai, in a rather naive and innocent manner.

“Hmm… That will be too extraordinary for them… Hmm? Ai-chan, look, there is something outside.” said Yuki as she noticed some unusual movements outside the cafeteria.

“Could it be Mr. Jason?” said Ai, but obviously she doesn’t believe what she just said herself.

“Mr. Jason should be in the basement, and the basement door had been opened since he went in, so it can’t be Mr. Jason.” said Yuki.

“Mmm… Should we go check it out?” Ai asked in a nearly whispering voice, Yuki nodded.

Then the girls slowly approaching the entrance of the cafeteria with full caution. They peeks out to the lounge through the door and greeted by a disgusting sight, the lounge is filled with lumps of meat that moves on its own…

Quill Town, Sky, Chris, and Ben had returned to the homestay, the caretaker had prepared lunches for them in the dining room. Aside from Sky and friends, there are ten other people having lunch with them, sharing a long table. The caretaker first served some simple balanced meal to that ten people, while Sky and friends are served with a separate different set of meals which looks more appetizing. Sky and others feel rather confused with this different treatment, while the other ten people don’t have any reactions to this.

“We changed the course as instructed by His Grace. Enjoy your meal.” said the caretaker with a smile before bow to them and take their leave.

Sky, Chris, and Ben stared at each other, as they found this unusual behavior very suspecting, then Chris and Ben checked the meal in front of them.

“Safe to consume, nothing extraordinary.” said Chris.

“Same here.” said Ben.

While they are checking their food, the other group of people had already eaten one-third of their meals, they don’t seem to be affected by Sky and the others.

“But I smelled a strong scent of magic herbs from there.” said Chris in a really low volume, this makes them even more confused and disturbed.

They look at the food in front of them, they don’t know whether they should eat it or not although it’s confirmed to be safe to consume.

“I think we should eat some, as we will be having some hard works after this.” Sky suggested. Chris nodded, then, with an uneasy feeling, they ate their lunches.

Later, Sky’s room.

“Hey Chris, any thoughts on what move should we take right now? Things just so unexpected and suspicious.” said Sky.

“We will do the quest, this place is not the place we are looking for.” said Chris.

“You think so? Any particular reason? I mean, if this place really isn’t our target, you can just omit the quest.” said Sky.

“How should I explain… This Angel, I believe he will be able to give us the information we need if we helped him in this quest.” said Chris

“You trusted him?” Sky asked, our of curiosity.

“Not really, but I trusted my own judgment.” said Chris.

“You know him right? And that lady mentioned by him.” Sky asked.

“Probably… (!)… Something is happening in the secret base.” said Chris in a rather astonished tone.

“I sensed it as well.” said Ben who was putting some herbs in small capsules.

“But don’t worry, they are able to handle it on its own.” said Ben while handed a small bottle of capsules he just makes to Chris.

“For some precautions.” said the doctor.

*Something out of the story

Sky: “Dear readers.”

Chris: “Hmm?”

Sky: “As what Chris said. Right now, this story is free on the authorized platform, so please read it from authorized platforms as mental support for the writer.”

Chris: “Mhm… There are two authorized platforms. One is webnovel.com. And another one is that messy and half-dead Weebly site that she uses for draft and backup… But not recommended.”

Sky: “Ah… Haha. Yes, as Chris said.”

Chris: “But look out, those scums might change this note to their own website link. So, be cautious.

Sky : “By the way, if the cover page is the old cover page that shows two stickmen, stop reading it, it’s cursed and might caused the writer to stop writing.”
