BXBX NOVEL Chapter 158: Looking For the Fairy
She was ev rarely se in the populace, leaving them to face all the hardship alone.
Every month, they would have a big target; if they couldn't fulfill it, they would th meet with brutal punishmt.
Oh yeah, the drunk man also said that one day, a leader rose among the civilians and overthrew the King and que, giving freedom to the fairies."
Alex frowned upon hearing this; it's basically a brainwashing tactic spread a the citizs to paint a picture that fairies were miserable creatures and deserved to be rewarded for all the injustice that happed to them.
"Does the story describe the leader?"
"No, it does not. The story ds there since the drunk man fainted after this."
"I see." Alex th turned silt.
He turned his gaze outside the chariot, looking at the kingdom underneath him, while his mind started clarifying the information with Vesa.
Vesa didn't add any more information but confirmed a few of Alex's thoughts, such as there being more than two factions in the war.
So far, Alex knew the Vampire progitor was allied with the Felidaeans progitor and the fairy progitor.
On the other side, they are fighting the dragon progitor and the human progitor; he still doesn't know if the dragon and human are in cahoots or not.
Ev though he knows lower dragon species have attacked his planet, this still doesn't confirm their relationship. Based on what Vesa says, lower dragons are in opposition to the Dragon race.
"Vesa, can you tell me more about this war? At the very least, the main goal. I know you don't want to tell me unnecessary information, but this is important for me to know now.
I need to think about my next step. It's not just this secret realm. For example, Vesa, like the human progitor, is my emy.
You should know I live in his territory; it's very dangerous for me not to know this information. It's also the same for MingYue."
[King, in the case of the human progitor, it's a rumor. His last momt was not like that at all. Except the vampire progitor resurrected after his death, and it's another evt that I don't know of.]
"Can't you make sure of it? Don't you know the currt time?"
[I know the currt time on the King's planet, but in the universe, it's differt. The time that has passed is just too long for me to keep track.]
This made Alex frown, but there was nothing he could do about it for now.
He turned his atttion back toward the currt problem; the best way to finish this quickly is to beat the King, but it seems the source is coming from his two new concubines, whom Alex suspects are fairies.
It doesn't take long for the chariot to land on the forest periphery.
This forest is located near the orphanage where both of those wom come from. Alex speculates there is a fairy race settlemt hidd inside the forest or at least an trance to another section of the secret realm.
But he doubts the second one; he still believes the one doing this is without Freya knowing, so they will probably have some secret base somewhere else.
The forest was filled with many trees, including gre wood and brown leaves. It looked like a jungle with many vines; Alex could already detect many wild beasts inside.
Seeing the many dots on his radar gave Alex an idea, "William, you and Roxy can wait for me here. I won't take long."
Alex th walked toward the forest without waiting for their reply. With his back disappearing, William walked back to the chariot.
He doesn't plan to wait for Alex to stand there and be exposed to nature. Nor does he feel any interest in going after him.
"Young master, what do you think about what Sir Alex said?" Roxy asked as she oped the door for William to ter.
Inside the chariot, William replied, "You mean the fairy race?"
"Yes, young master, we never took the rumor seriously, but if the Fairy race is real, th it all makes sse why the king decided to do this rebellion."
"Can I still not believe it? With how Alex says it, I am sure he already met one of those fairies, and considering the first place he visits is the stinel house, that means he met one there."
"Why would the stinel hide the fairy race from us th? I just feel that doesn't make sse, young master."
"I don't know. He probably has his own reasons. If I were him, I wouldn't hide them."
William paused for a momt, th looked at Roxy, "Why do you still call me young master? I already told you multiple times, Roxy."
"Because no matter what, you are my young master, and I am your maid forever," Roxy said with a slight blush on her cheek.
William sighed; he would be dumb if he didn't realize Roxy's feelings, but he was confused about how to respond to her.
He first met Roxy at the black market. At that time, she was one of the slaves shown as merchandise.
William purchased all of the underage slaves and th freed them all, sding them back to their families if they had one; if they didn't have any, he st them to an orphanage he invested in.
Every slave agreed with his arrangemt except for Roxy; she said since he already purchased her, she would become his now.
She th learned how to become a maid and started working for him. It's be years since that incidt, but Roxy never changed her mind, not ev once.
'Forget it; I will think about it after this incidt cooled off. Roxy is not a bad choice to take as my wife.'
