Chapter 140
Thinking about a way to permanently get rid of the vapor in the basement of the tavern, Michelle suddenly frowned and stood up, feeling something tugging at her soul. "I need to go!" she said without even looking at Alexander as she instantly went to the staircase.
With how Michelle was acting, Alexander was a fair bit surprised. She wasn’t the type of person to make rash decisions, so he decided to follow her. "What happened?" he asked, the playful smile still adorning his lips.
"Something is interfering with my contract with Mare..." Michelle said as she walked out of the tavern and summoned Cold Flame. He didn’t need to be told to take on his beast form, and Michelle quickly got on his back. And, being thick-skinned, Alexander followed her.
Since Michelle didn’t say anything about it, Cold Flame just flapped his wings and flew towards the jungle.
Michelle used the contract with Snow, and the weakening contract with Mare, to sense their positions and navigated Cold Flame there.
Cold Flame flew at top speed, so within ten or so minutes, they were above the valley and Cold Flame flew down into it, landing in front of the cave, next to Snow, Anastasia, Kieran, and Ivona. "Where’s Mare?" Michelle quickly asked.
Seeing that the usually calm Michelle had quite a worried expression, Snow just pointed to the cave.
Michelle quickly summoned Nyxaroth as she got off Cold Flame’s back. "All of you, stay here! I’ll be going there!" she said decisively before walking towards the cave.
No one really understood what was going on, but since Michelle had already left, they just stayed behind. The only one who followed Michelle was Alexander. To that, Michelle had nothing to say. She knew she had no way of getting rid of him, and since he was powerful, she knew he could take care of himself if something happened, so she didn’t bother to argue with him.
