A moment ago.
Selena had been refining the Ena from the cores with Risa, trying to get as much Ena as possible.
Suddenly, Risa raised her head, noticing something. “There’s a smell of blood that I don’t recognize.”
“Huh? You can smell blood from this far away? What are you, a dog?” Selena tilted her head in confusion.
“I don’t know. Maybe my senses have been strengthened because of my evolution? Or is it because of his blood? Or maybe it’s because of last night?”
Selena frowned. “We can figure it out later. Is Nathan back yet?”
“No.”
“He hasn’t returned, but there’s someone coming into this mansion. An intruder?”
“Most likely. I believe that person is on the second floor.”
Selena immediately grabbed her staff. There was no time for her other equipment. Instead, she summoned Sasha and Yin Zhen as guards.
Yin Zhen took the lead. Unfortunately, Risa couldn’t locate the blood source precisely, so they had to search randomly.
Obviously, the one they should check first was Sera’s room. Even if they were rivals, she was still important to them.
Bang!
Brunhild was thrown to the door and crushed it before she was stopped by the wall. She was raising her shield as if she had just blocked something.
“!!!” Selena couldn’t help but widen her eyes. With no hesitation, all of them headed straight to Brunhild without calling her name, as if they were trying to not alarm the enemy.
Brunhild noticed them and charged forward without glancing at them, trying to stop the enemy in his tracks.
A clicking sound soon echoed inside the room. When Selena reached the room, she found Serafina standing in the corner of the room, boosting Brunhild’s physical strength. The room was also in a mess, as the bed was already split in half.
Still, the one giving off the pressure was a person clad in a long robe. Its body had been covered from top to bottom, showing nothing but a shadow of its eyes from the slit on his mask.
Its body was big, much taller than theirs, as if he wasn’t a human. But she had seen at least one person who had such a body in her life, so it wasn’t in the realm of impossibility.
Couldn’t determine the identity of the attacker, Yin Zhen and Selena immediately leaped forward.
Yin Zhen kicked him while Selena formed her blood tornado, trying to pressure him from both sides.
The enemy grabbed Brunhild’s wrist and threw her to Yin Zhen, stopping their attacks. After that, he crushed the tornado with a single punch.
Because the enemy was wearing a glove, she still couldn’t determine the enemy. There was one thing to do.
Since the nature of the mission was dangerous, Vivian shouldn’t have any qualms about her mansion being destroyed. At least it was to protect Serafina, so the Holy Kingdom would definitely reimburse her.
Hence, Selena gathered her Ena and let it explode in front of the enemy, trying to launch it to the window.
However, Sera actually boosted Selena’s ability. Because of her synchronization focused on the Multiplication, it amplified Selena’s explosion by three times.
Boom!
The explosion swallowed half the room and blasted the enemy’s away.
“What are you doing? It’s dangerous to do that!” Selena wanted to say more about her actions, but she stopped. There was something more important to do.
While biting her lips, Selena jumped off the balcony, finding the mysterious enemy to be escaping. Stay tuned with freewebnovel
Selena summoned her avatar, trying to catch him. Unfortunately, she blew her a bit too far, so the enemy was able to escape.
Sera looked at them with a serious expression before saying, “Sorry.”
Selena wanted to say something, but it seemed Sera had realized her mistake. She clicked her tongue and said, “Nevertheless, we need to find Nathan… No, I think it’s better to stay here. You can’t fight, so I will stay here with you.”
The butlers and the maids were alerted and hurriedly checked on them. Some were screaming in panic, but some reached the room. freewebnvel.com
“This is…” The head butler and the head maid gasped in shock.
Selena sighed. “Something just attacked this mansion. Don’t worry about the damage. I’ll let Nathan take care of it.”
All of them had been notified that Nathan was Vivian’s disciple. If Nathan would take care of this, they had nothing to worry about.
Selena ordered, “Anyway, make sure the rest calm down. I don’t know how this explosion will affect the city, so be prepared for it as well. Report to me if something else happens.”
“Y-Yes!” They nodded furiously and hurriedly went to their post.
As soon as they were gone, Selena turned to Sera. “Anyway, you will stay with me for now. Although I don’t want to do this, your safety is necessary. I can’t face Nathan if you’re hurt… No, it feels like the enemy has been watching us this whole time and choosing to make its move as soon as Nathan leaves the mansion.”
“What is actually going on?” Sera asked.
“I know as much as you do. Nathan must know more, but we can only wait until he comes back. He should be rushing here after that explosion.”
Sera clenched her fists and nodded. “Alright.”
As Selena expected, Nathan returned to the mansion by himself three minutes later.
“Are you guys alright?” Nathan checked their bodies up and down.
“Yes. However, the enemy is strange.” Selena frowned. “It’s like they have been watching us the whole time.”
“Watching us the whole time?” Nathan looked down, falling into deep thought. He didn’t manage to get a lot of information from Bella since there wasn’t enough time. Bella also had to leave since she couldn’t reveal herself in front of these two.
And that was when he realized something. “I see. In that case, their next move will be…”
Nathan turned around, facing the gate.
They could see a lot of soldiers storming inside the mansion. One of them stepped forth and shouted, “We are the soldiers of Meyes City. We demand the people inside the mansion to come out!”
