Chapter 206: Emerald Island
Emerald Island.
After an hour on the boat, Iris could see a vast island with huge hills and green trees almost covering the entire island.
She could also spot a few white buildings on the island. What amazed her was that the island was surrounded by white sand and emerald-colored water.
"Justin, is this why it is called Emerald Island, because of the sea color?" Iris asked Justin, standing beside her, waiting for the officer to help them dock the boat.
"Yes, that’s because of the water around the island. This place is wonderful, but too bad we rarely come here," Justin answered her in a barely audible voice. "You know the reason, right?"
Iris nodded. She understood that the island guard would be suspicious if they didn’t age.
She heard from Xavier that they rarely employed humans because of this matter. Humans would be wary of them. They could erase human memories, but if they did it too often, there might be side effects. That’s why Xavier chose to rotate his visits to his properties on this earth just in case — not to arouse suspicion.
Justin continued speaking when he noticed her not uttering a single word, "On this island, we usually stay in a restricted area. The guard and his family can’t visit without permission. They will only appear if we summon them to come..."
"I see. So the building in that area is the restrictive one?" Iris pointed to a few white buildings she had spotted earlier.
