Mike and Anon are sitting in a quiet room inside the Royal Castle and both of them have a very serious expression on their faces.
“So, Tell me about it… How strong are they ?” Anon asked breaking the silence.
“They are strong master, Very Strong. Their skin is hard to cut through, even with the advance magic, they are experts in hand to hand combat and Weapons as well.” Mike replied with a serious expression.
“So, you want to explain… How you got into this shape ?” Anon asked as he summoned a cigar and lit it up.
*Puff-Puff*
“Yes…” Mike replied.
6 hours ago in the Elven kingdom, Lucy’s house…
*Chii-Chii*
A blue bird dropped a letter in Lucy’s chimney and flew away.
Mike and No.300 were sitting in the same room, as the letter came down, No.300 got alert immediately.
“What the fuck is that ?” No.300 shouted loudly.
“Just a letter, No.300. Calm down.” Mike said as he looked at No.300 with a smile.
“Oh… A letter.” No.300 said as she went ahead and picked up the letter in her hands. She then read the name on the envelope.
“Sir, Mike… This letter came for you.” No.300 spoke as she handed the letter to Mike.
“A letter for me ? It must be my daughter, she is- Wait, It has a Royal seal on it.” Mike said as he noticed a small golden seal on the back of the letter.
“A Royal Seal ? Who does it belongs to ?” No.300 asked with a curious expression.
“It’s a golden feather, It means… Queen Derein. I think you mistook my name for master’s name.” Mike said as he turned the letter around and noticed that it was his name on the letter.
“I know how to read, sir. Don’t take me for a fool.” No.300 spoke as she went back to reading her newspaper.
“That’s a bit odd… Why would she send me a letter ?” Mike Questioned as he turned the envelope back once again and noticed a small red coloured dragon on it’s bottom right corner.
“An Urgent Speed-Post ?” Mike said as he removed the seal and took out the letter.
No.300 peeked inside the letter, as soon as she heard that it was a Speed-Post but she was left shocked, when she saw that the letter was blank.
“No.300, it’s not a good thing to peek on Someone’s letter.” Mike spoke as he looked at No.300 with a straight face.
“Hehe… I was curious, Sorry. But, there is nothing on the letter… Is it a joke or something ?” No.300 asked.
“It’s a secret message, written with Magi’s ink.” Mike spoke.
“Magi’s Ink ? What’s that ?” No.300 asked.
“Magi’s ink is a special type of ink, that is used to write secret letters to spies or to receive information from them.
This ink is odour less and invisible to naked eyes. It’s contents can only be revealed with a secret word that is used while encrypting this message.” Mike explained.
“How do we know the word ? If it’s a secret and only the writer knows it ?” No.300 asked with a confused expression.
“There are clues on the envelope for that… Like this one.” Mike said as he pointed towards the Red dragon that was on the bottom right of the envelope.
“A Speed Post sign ?” No.300 asked with even more Confused expression.
“Yes, Queen Derein sent the letter with the help of a Messenger bird but it has a speed post sign on it… Why do you think that is ?” Mike Asked with a smile.
“I don’t know.” No.300 replied with a confused expression.
“Of course you won’t, A speed post Sign is used when a letter is sent by a postman. Since, this letter is sent by a messenger bird, the Speed-Post sign is useless here.
Do you understand now ?” Mike asked again.
“Okay, i don’t understand anything. Just tell me the secret word, Sir Mike.” No.300 spoke with a straight face.
“Reveal your true nature, Red Dragon.” Mike said as he used mana while saying these words and suddenly the paper started glowing.
As the glow faded away, Only one word appeared over the letter, “HELP”.
“Help ? What’s that supposed to mean ?” Mike asked with a confused expression.
“Help means when someone is in-” No.300 started explaining the meaning of the word ‘Help’ but Mike interrupted her immediately.
“I know, What it means No.300. I am just saying that because I don’t understand, why and where she needs my Help.” Mike spoke.
“Well, she didn’t write that on the letter, right ?” No.300 asked.
“I can see that as well… No.300. I think, i should show this to master.” Mike spoke as he stood up from his chair and placed the letter in his pocket.
“What if it’s an emergency ?” No.300 asked.
“I have to show it to master before taking any action, last time he scolded me too much for hiding the company thing.” Mike spoke as he looked at No.300.
“She could be dying and Master is busy in some royal Queen making process… Didn’t you say it yourself, yesterday ? Are you sure that you want to disturb him ?” No.300 asked with a smile.
“No, No, No… That’s what you said when I tried to tell him about the companies and you manipulated my mind into not telling him.
I am not doing this again.” Mike spoke as he looked at No.300 with a straight face.
“So, it was No.300 who holded you back from telling me about the companies huh…?” Anon asked as he interrupted Mike’s story.
“Yes, Master…” Mike replied.
“Hmm…? Why would she do that ?” Anon murmured.
“She said that… If she did naughty things, you will punish her.” Mike replied.
Suddenly a smile appeared over Anon’s face.
“Hahaha… That’s what I expect from my army’s Chief Commander. Well done.” Anon spoke as he laughed out loudly.
“Master… Should I continue ?” Mike asked.
“Oh, Yeah, Yeah…. But before that… Mike I want to ask you one thing.” Anon asked as he leaned in with a serious expression.
“Yes, master ?” Mike replied as he leaned in with a serious expression as well.
“How does it feel to be manipulated by an Ogre girl ? Pfffft… Hahahahahaha…” Anon laughed as he tapped Mike’s shoulder.
“Fuck… No.300… I will take revenge for this.” Mike murmured under his breath.
