Chapter 146: Disappeared
Vritra carefully made his way back to the castle. Even though more than twelve hours had passed in the labyrinth, only a little over two hours had passed outside. It was still dark.
He returned to his room and took a bath, then he returned to his bed. Vritra couldn’t sleep for the remainder of the night, as he just lay there thinking of various possibilities.
If that BBC cult was as twisted as Yasmine said, then they just might try to drag him into even more danger. Psychos like that would love nothing more than seeing others fight and suffer. There was danger from all sides.
...
As the sky turned bright, Vritra anxiously waited for any kind of change, but nothing out of the ordinary happened. Not even the news of the king’s death had been leaked yet.
After his bath and getting dressed, Vritra told Vanessa about the change in their schedule. He even told her about the shocking news of the king’s death and a bit about the danger.
Vanessa knew that with her power she couldn’t make a difference, and his decision seemed to be the best. She accepted all his words without saying anything.
After that, Vritra went to meet Fiona. The beautiful girl was pleasantly surprised to see her boyfriend right as she walked out of her room. She jumped into his arms and gave him a kiss.
The two entered her room, and Vritra told her about the changes in the plan. She was surprised, but she too accepted and began to prepare to leave early.
Finally, Vritra went to meet the goddess, who was just about to go meet her worshippers who had come there to pray to her.
"Is everything alright?" Diana asked as she watched Vritra act a bit differently than usual. His playful side seemed to be missing.
