Chapter 207: Updating Pokedex - Tournament of Worth Commence!
Wednesday, 11 June 1986
Midnight
The drapes on the windows of Darcie's room were half closed, preventing the moonlight of a crescent moon from seeping in unwantedly.
On the bed, a tiny figure was sleeping, a soft blanket covering her from head to toe. Only the soft noise of her breathing, undulating the cotton over her face, could be heard in this silence. On her left, between the bed and the windows, was another figure lying on the floor. It was even tinier than the one on the bed.
Dobby had learned to sleep noiselessly in the Malfoy Manor even in the farthest, deepest, and darkest corners, where even if he were to shout, none would hear him.
Today, Darcie had ordered him to sleep in her room, a gesture that Dobby had received with teary eyes. However, she had ordered him to not get up or open his eyes even if she were to get up before morning. Being a house-elf, Dobby was bound to obey, anyway. But, since her childhood, Dobby had received Darcie's orders more eagerly and happily.
Suddenly, the entire blanket squirmed as if giant roaches were crawling inside it.
The figure lying under the blanket wasn't tiny anymore.
Kai threw the blanket off his face and sat up. In a matter of moments, sweat claimed his brows and back, drenching it as if he had been in a long run.
His eyes flickered, and the tips of his fingers throbbed. His teeth gritted against each other and there was a nervous feeling coursing through his entire body.
He looked to his left and down, and saw Dobby, sleeping like a dog.
