Chapter 30: Danger lurking

"In this world, there is always danger for those who are afraid of it."

---------

Severus had no words.

Sometimes he really wondered whether noworry was really a heavenly bird or was he just faking it.

Noworry disdained. ]Didn't he scam us? Didn't he scam those twin brothers? So he is a scoundrel]

Severus"...."

Whatever!!!!!!!

Severus had already accepted his defeat. No matter what noworry was nothing else but a proud idiot.

Severus flicked noworry's forehead and commented, "Yeah, yeah that doppelganger left a book for me"

Noworry instantly flew up from Severus' shoulder and came in front of him while flying, stopping Severus abruptly in his tracks.

[What? When did it happen? No. Why am I not aware of it? Did you make a deal with that doppelganger behind my back? I am telling you I will punish you if you betray me.] Noworry threatened.

Severus was irritated. Sometimes noworry truly acted like a possessive girlfriend.

"What nonsense are you spouting? Why will I betray you? It will be better if you first listen to what I have to say and then scream. Geeez Noworry"

Noworry hummed in response and again perched on Severus' shoulder.

"That day when he scammed us and I paid for the food, the manager of that inn asked for a talk."

[Where was I?] noworry asked instantly.

It was as if rather than being interested in the book he was more interested to know why was he not aware of the book.

"Simple....You flew away", Severus said coolly.

Noworry [...]

Did he? As far as he remembered he didn't fly away.

As if reading from Noworry's expression about his thoughts, Severus immediately answered.

"You didn't fly away immediately but you said you had some work and will come back soon. I also told you that we will be visiting the twin brothers but bleh.... you flew away for some time. Do you remember?"

What the hell!!!! Was it really me who abandoned him?

What a shame!!!!

Noworry sulked.

[Aaaah....I see. As you are aware Severus that I am a heavenly bird and due to such long sleep my body is tired, so I need to restore my strengths, thus I went for closed-door training] Noworry lied without an ounce of shame.

Severus made a serious face and replied, "Of course I understand that you need to restore your strengths. I hope your half an hour closed training was beneficial. Was it? I wish to see your powers soon"

Noworry [....]

Wasn't this statement the same as telling one's tricks openly?

[Really Severus? You didn't need to embarrass your birdie like this. This small bird's heart hurt] Noworry mumbled while pouting.

"Never mind. After you left, the manager asked me for tea, to which I agreed. There he gave me a book and asked me to keep this book a secret. He told me that this book contained divine spells and array formations so, come what may, I shouldn't hand this book in wrong hands"

Noworry cheerful expressions instantly turned glum. No wonder there were so many coincidences. Someone was bent on killing Severus.

[Severus I think something is wrong] Noworry replied seriously.

Severus clicked his tongue in interest. It would be a shame for him if he still couldn't decipher the connection.

"Interesting....finally I believe that you got brains noworry"

Noworry [....]
