Chapter 387 - Terry and Nicolae Interaction

Yesterday, when Aleksis and Nicolae left for the campus aboard Carl and Sascha's armored Mercedes, the innocent Carl accidentally revealed many of her secrets about Prince Siegfried to Nicolae and gave the girl headache.

Nicolae found out about her relationship with Prince Siegfriend and even knew that Prince Siegfried was the leader of Rhionen Assassins himself.  She could not risk the same thing happening with Lauriel in the same car, so she asked her bodyguards to follow them as Lauriel drove her to campus in separate car.

Aleksis thanked him as she got out of the car and kissed her godfather's cheek before running towards her class.

Some of the girls in the campus who saw what they did frowned and whispered about Aleksis.

"Gosh that new kid ... after she changed her appearance, she keeps on changing boyfriends! So shameless! So she took our Terry, Nicolae, Ian … who's next?"

In reality, these girls were actually happy because they were finally able to find a reason to spew their hatred toward Aleksis - the girl had 'taken' their idols away.

Terry, who was sitting in the library while editing some short videos, was annoyed by the many notifications on his laptop from Splitz social media that mentioned his name. He opened his university group and saw that Aleksis had become the target of gossip … again, this time it was because she was driven to campus by Lauriel.

He could only shake his head and feel sorry for his sister. It was indeed easier to be born as a handsome man in this world than a beautiful woman. Women like handsome men, and fellow men usually don't envy other men's good looks, while beautiful women will be the target of other women's jealousy dan unwanted men's attention.

From what he had been seeing, Aleksis had always been the target of unwanted attention from males and the target of envy from females. If Aleksis were a weak girl who was easily oppressed, of course she would not have survived until today. Fortunately, his sister was very smart and had a strong personality.

Moreover, coupled with the fact that her family was very rich and powerful, Aleksis could get adequate protection, and no one could bother her without getting repercussions.

That morning's gossip had ruined his mood. Finally, Terry decided to open Darknet and contact Wolf. He missed conversing with his best friend.

[Why are you contacting me here? You already have my mobile number.] Came a message from Wolf to his laptop.

Terry was stunned for half a second and then patted his forehead. Oh gosh, for a moment he totally forgot that Wolf was Nicolae. Dammit!

[I just wanted to ask you about the progress of your research on Rhionen Industries. We cannot talk about such thing over the phone, Stupid!]

[Hmmm ... It looks like Alaric Rhionen is very serious. He has responded to my request.]

[He agreed to meet you just to be able to find Uncle Aldebar ??? Isn't he a very reclusive person? Almost no one has ever seen him outside Rhionen Industries. You could say that no one knows his true face. He could easily trick you and send someone else.]

[I'm still thinking about it. I can track anyone, except him. If I manage to find out his true identity ... this will be the pinnacle of my career achievement. Of course that was before I knew about the Alchemists. Now ... I realized that there are so many people that I can't find, like Aleksis' father. I don't think that I would ever be able to trace him ...]

[Did he give you a deadline?] Terry asked curiously

[Only one week. I will ask my father if I can trace Aldebar to lure Alaric Rhionen out. We know how Rhionen Assassins' reputation is ...]

Terry smiled when he read Nicolae's message. He then quickly wrote his reply.

[There is no way that you would be able to find Uncle Aldebar, unless he allows you to find him. I know your reputation, Wolf, but Uncle Aldebar is totally out of your league.]

[Is that true? Wow ... I'm feeling even more challenged now.] Nicolae replied.

[Alaric Rhionen is also not a match for Uncle Aldebar. He can try to find Uncle and capture him if he wants, but he would never succeed.]

Terry tried to hold back his laughter as he continued writing his message.

[Uncle Aldebar's bodyguards are far more terrifying than the Rhionen Assassins. He has the most important position in the clan, because he is the holder of the immortality potion. His safety is the clan's first priority. Even Uncle Caspar doesn't have bodyguards as tough as his.]

[Is that true?? I didn't know that!]

Terry finally roared with laughter remembering his own experience. He also used to underestimate Aldebar Schneider when he first met him in the Schneider family castle.

Caspar's brother looked so quirky with his long, silky blonde hair, his love for unique historical outfits, and his very indifferent attitude. But when Terry and Aleksis stayed with him for several months to learn about alchemy, he saw the other side of the Schneider family's scientist.

Aldebar lived a nomadic life and he was very mysterious. In his entourage, there were always at least 20 of the most impressive bodyguards Terry had ever seen around him.

The gossip he heard about the guards was that they were the best knights in the world that Aldebar had encountered in his journey for the past two centuries. They were given the immortality potion, on one condition: that they followed him for life and stay loyal to him.

Some of them were world legendary knights whom Terry thought were dead - as written in history books. Even though Rhionen Assassins' reputation was terrible, he was very sure that they wouldn't be able to mess with Aldebar.

He was not worried at all.

Terry had just wiped his tears after laughing hard, imagining how shocked Alaric Rhionen and his assassins would be when they met Aldebar.

He hoped he could be there and watch as the assassins were slaughtered, which would certainly be a very impressive documentary.

KILLING THE ASSASSINS. He could already imagine the title of the documentary later.
