Kapitel 123: Invisible Strings

[A few minutes earlier…]

AS SOON as Forrester stepped foot in the temple, he felt an ominous presence that could only belong to one person.

Could it be…?

He ran towards the direction of the aura that he felt.

Much to his surprise, it led him to the room where Princess Nia was supposed to be sleeping. On his way to the chamber, he crossed paths with Howard– the High Priest.

"Your Holiness, you've returned," Howard said in surprise. "Would you like to have tea with me?"

"Maybe some other time," Forrester said with urgency in his voice. "I have business with Her Royal Highness."

The High Priest looked shocked. "Her Royal Highness is still asleep, Your Holiness."

He smiled sweetly at him. "Howard, do you seriously think that you can lie to me?"

Howard looked helpless. In the end, he bowed his head in surrender. "I apologize, Your Holiness."
