Chapter 156 - A Suspicion - Part 2

Rex slowly descended and landed right in front of the hall. He then slowly moved towards the hall as if he wanted to look at something.

'Tap Tap Tap' 

He made least sound possible and entered the hall through the giant gate that was right in front of him.

He followed the shadow that moved inside the hall. Something was bugging him a lot and it was probably his gut feeling.

The decoration were fantastically made which did enchant him a bit but hadn't come here to be enchanted by these things.

All he wanted to do was check what this feeling of uneasiness was.

"Yes your highness, everything has been done as you asked me to do."

Rex paused the moment he heard someone's voice from the inside. Although he wasn't sure of the fact of what was exactly going on, he thought it was the best to just listen to their conversation.

That would without a doubt tell him about what was exactly happening inside.

"Good, so what do you think about..."

When Rex stood and heard more about what they were talking, he finally concluded that just some normal discussions were going on.

'Sigh, did I really suspect him for no reason?', he asked himself in his mind.

He had already seen the place which was too beautiful and more than that the things that were used to decorate the place were one of a kind so without a doubt he wouldn't want to waste things if he really were planning something.

Rex thought that whatever was going on his mind was futile due to which he just went away but little did he know that it would have been better if he stayed there for a bit longer.

'Sigh, I'm so very tired...'

Rex sighed as he flew in the air once again. He wanted to go back and take rest as soon as possible.

But that didn't mean that he didn't enjoy the places that were present in the kingdom of Estelias.

It was too beautiful and peaceful and just by being there, his heart felt a bit light and probably that was why he wanted to be there for some more time.

He also wanted to visit Emilia and see if she was well since it was her who gave out the invitations, but he thought that by doing so he could have literally caused war to happen because he had entered the Kingdom in a wrong way.

If someone were tp spot him and then report to the King, then this could easily lead to the deterioration of the relationship which Rex didn't want to happen.

He knew that Alex and Elendo were good friends and by doing something stupid if their friendship were to end then he wouldn't be able to forgive himself.

So he decided to just return back to his Kingdom. He used the skill teleportation yet again and reached the garden in a fraction of second.

He didn't want to hide but it seemed as if Elina was sitting there and was thinking something.

He thought that it would be the best if he were to hide for now. He just sat behind the bush until Elina left and right after she did that, he too got up and walked back towards his room.

He was quite tired and all he wNted now was a nice long nap so that he could regain hiks strength.

'Sigh, I guess I was worrying for nothing...', he thought and lied down on bed.

Zor and Bandis who had earlier noticed that Rex had gone, now realized that he was back due to which they dashed towards his room.

Of course, they could have used the skill teleportation to reach almost immediately, but doing that was quite taxing.

Thus, both of them just ended up walking towards the room and knocked the door.

'Knock Knock'

'Huh? The heck....'

Rex was quite tired right now and wanted to sleep, but just as he was about to close his eyes and fall asleep, he heard the sound of someone knocking the door which announced him.

He almost immediately stood up and rushed towards the door ands opened it with anger in order to see who it was despite knowing the familiar presence of Bandis and Zor which he was able to feel for quite some time now.

"Who...?!", he asked right away after opening the door but after seeing Bandis and Zor standing there, he didn't seek the answer for the question which he asked.

"Master..."

"Master!"

Both of them bowed their heads and greeted him. He right away moved out and looked here and there only to find the empty hall way.

Right after that he pulled both of them inside and said, "Didn't I say yo not to call me that here?"

Rex could have got busted if someone had heard about it which was yet another reason for his anger.

"Ah, Sorry about that master, but we really wanted to know about this matter...", Zor urged to ask something while looking at Bandis.

Bandis was already like a fool who just stared at the blank space as if this had nothing to do with him.

"Sigh, Zor tell me quickly..."

Rex ended up getting tired with his own frustration because of which he just asked Zor to tell about the reason for their visit.

Furthermore, he was to tired to even listen to them right now but when he saw their serious faces, he couldn't help but think what this important business of theirs was.

Zor nodded his head and said, "Miss Elina asked us to use the skill teleport tomorrow..."

"Hmm...? Mom did?"

The moment Rex heard that, he was almost sure that they were going to leave tomorrow for the so called party because indeed, every guest would have probably arrived starting tomorrow.

He concluded that by recalling the almost complete decorations of the hall which he had seen with his own eyes.

"Yes... but she wanted us to only teleport till the Souran city... and no further.", was what Zor said.

"Huh? Only till there?"

Rex was now completely lost in his thoughts when he heard that.

The city of Souran was indeed quite close to the Kingdom of Estelias, but it wasn't a place where anyone wanted to go.

Since Rex had already read and collected information about the nearby places and many more places about the continent, he knew it very well.

'That's weird... why would mom ask them to teleport us to the city which is infamous for harboring assassins and murderers?'

Rex was quite shocked about it and for a moment he thought that Zor might have heard it wrong.

That was why he asked, "Are you sure Zor? Was that really what mom said to you?"

It wasn't as if he didn't believe Zor, but whatever had told was quite surprising to him.

He knew that Elina would have definitely been aware of the place since it was quite famous. So he was a bit doubtful if she would have really asked about that lace.

"Yes master, I'm completely sure that Miss Elina asked me about that place...", Zor too seemed quite confident about it.

"Hmm, then this is something that I need to think about carefully..."

He thought that it would be best to ask Elina directly but before that he wanted to check out that place too.

The books which he had read were a bit old which were probably been printed 5-10 years ago so by now the situation might have ended up being changed thus he wanted to confirm the details of the books by looking at the place once.

"I'll go and check the place, till then don't agree or reply to anything that mom would ask...", Rex said and vanished almost immediately.

"As you wish master...", Zor bowed yet again and then exited the room.

It seemed like Bandis just stood their like a fool but he too had something important to say.

'I'll tell once master returns...', he thought and he too exited the room.

'Zwoop'

In a second, Rex arrived at the said area.

'Huh...? This is...'

He was levitating in the air right after teleportation and was observing the area that was right under him.

'What the heck is this?', Rex was puzzled when he looked at the place.

There were quite a lot of people and there were many shops installed too.

There was a complete city but near it everything seemed destroyed and deserted.

the city was guarded by huge walls but that wasn't something to have concern about.

What surprised Rex was that he was able to see the smile on the faces of the people that were either buying the goods or selling.

But at the same time he was having a sense of uneasiness for some reason.

'Weird... this is too weird...'

'...'

'Although they are smiling... something seems to be off...', he thought as he watched the entire area.
