Chapter 464 Dauting Feeling of Being Chased

After each passing day, the number of students running down the streets increased, and Arthur was believing there was only one school in the entire country. That would explain the amount of people there.

With the recent additions to the liquor store, Arthur had more time to enjoy the time with his wives, and also explore the city!

"Nefion! Early vacation after the young blood came to your shop? Haha, you deserve some time off," an older woman said.

"You betcha. Their back does not hurt when crouching to get a bottle of liquor," Arthur said jokingly.

Almost everyone in that neighborhood knew him, and most were older people, so they understood each other well.

No one found it suspicious that Arthur was no longer spending his day inside the liquor store. The words spread quickly, and everyone at that point knew about the newly hired people who were working in his shop.

In fact, the number of customers kept increasing after he turned it into a bar, with drinks till late at night, and even some snacks. A hot spot in the neighborhood.

What Arthur was more worried about was his casino, which would soon start running, and now the Phoenix Trial he heard about back in the school.

Myla had a tracker on her so Arthur knew exactly where she was, so he walked fearlessly in the city, not having to think about either she had gone away or not.

That until he checked on his casino to see the undergoing construction. Arthur was talking with his workers when the tracker on Myla activated as she was leaving the city.

"She is already leaving?" Arthur thought.

There was still time for him to go look for her. His speed was way superior to hers, and that was not even counting his teleport. So Arthur still had time to go see his wives, who were already at home after a tired day working in the magical school.

"Are you already leaving? Will you take a long to return?" Sybille asked, as she tightly hugged Arthur and kissed him.

"I don\'t know how far this trial is, but I will leave an anchor here to teleport back and see you."

They spent some quality time together with lots of hugs and kisses, but Arthur could not let Myla go too far, or even worse, found out about the track, so he left the city after saying goodbye to his wives.

Also, they would be in charge of checking the liquor store from time to time to see if the new employees were doing the right thing and not stealing his money.

Myla flew on a blueish sword as big as two people, going straight toward the place where the Phoenix Trial would happen. She did not want to lose time inside the city, and only went there to warn the principal.

"Why do I feel this strange thing inside of me?" Myla thought, looking down over her shoulder.

She had a feeling of someone following her, but no matter when or where she looked, there was no one.

"Is my mind playing tricks on me?" she thought.

Arthur followed her from far away, a distance she could not see him even if she tried her best, yet he could see her clearly with the help of his Forbidden Eye.

"Impressive. Her guts are telling her there is something wrong, yet her power is incapable of noticing me."

They flew through verdant forests full of life to isolated mountains whose peaks touched the soft clouds of the starry sky.

Myla was restless, staring back every five minutes, trying to understand the reason for that harrowing feeling within her, but try as she might, the answer couldn\'t be found.

Those harmless birds became dubious shadows, and the sudden movements of the rabbits coming out of their burrows became a hindrance to her heart.

Such simple things were scaring her, and as much as Myla tried to convince herself that no one was chasing her, the feeling was too real to ignore.

The three days she spent like that were horrible, nefarious, and her nights of sleep caused her more tiredness than they restored her energy.

"It\'s driving me crazy," she thought for a moment, almost giving up on her journey.

What kept her going was the Phoenix Trial, and of course, the beautiful fishing village that had entered her vision after a few more days of travel.

"I\'m finally here!"

The test was on an island in the archipelago to the east of the mainland, and that fishing village was the closest to it.

In normal circumstances, Myla would go directly to the test, but her days had been horrible, and she spent a few days inside the village, resting properly before continuing.

A few moments after she entered the fishing village and rented a cozy room in the village\'s only lodging, Arthur also appeared, flying over the place.

Since they were so close to the place, he wasn\'t worried if she would notice his presence, and Arthur even rented a room in the same place she was.

"It\'s not like I have a lot of options right here."

By the morning of the other day, Myla noticed an elderly man sitting at a table in the restaurant\'s corner. That fishing village had several elderly people, so she was not surprised that the person was there, but what caught her attention was the clothes of the elderly, very different from all other people.

"How strange," she thought, placing spoons full of soup in her mouth, throwing that old man\'s face to the back of her mind.

Myla rested for a few days, and without exception, she exchanged glances with that mysterious old man every day, at least once. However, every time her aura swept the old man, he seemed to be just a normal person, with nothing special.

She was already forgetting that until she overheard a conversation while walking the muddy streets of that fishing village.

"Did you notice those two outsiders who arrived together? The pretty young lady and the old man. Why are they here?"

The conversation between those two fishermen brought the answer Myla sought, and her gaze no longer saw that old man as an ordinary person, but as the reason for her nightmare-filled nights.
