Chapter 136 - 135: She’s a what?
Once they reached the guest room, Millie quietly stepped ahead and gently pushed the door open.
Inside, Axelius could see two unfamiliar figures. One was seated gracefully on the velvet couch near the tea table, her back to the doorway, long flowing white hair resting gently on her shoulders as she held a porcelain teacup in her hand, sipping delicately.
Standing just behind her was another girl, possibly a servant or a guard, with her arms at her sides wearing black cload with a hood.
Axelius didn’t speak immediately.
He simply stepped inside, his boots making a faint sound on the polished floor and circled around the couch slowly to face whoever this mystery guest was.
And when he finally stood in front of them and saw her face clearly, his eyes narrowed slightly as he took in the sight of the elegant, unfamiliar girl looks the same age as him.
Axelius didn’t say anything at first as he lowered himself onto the seat across from the mysterious young girl, crossing his legs casually and leaning his arm along the armrest while keeping his expression calm but annoyed, his golden eyes focused on her with quiet suspicion.
The girl lifted her gaze slowly from his boots to his face, her eyes studying him like someone appraising something interesting and rare, and when their eyes met, she gave a faint smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes.
Axelius frowned deeper, his tone blunt and informal as he finally spoke, "I don’t think we’ve met before. So who are you, and what do you want?"
