Chapter 90 90: A Visit To Pehros [Pt2]



The Pheros estate was located in one of the out-skited towns in the Dirac territory. It was stationed far outside so it could be immobilized in case of a border emergency.

As such, it was a piece of land that was important for the empire\'s safety so Elysia could see why her brother did not want to cause any commotion about its safety and compromise the peace.

The Perrusia empire that bordered the Pheros land was a tiger lying in wait to ambush the empire if they showed weakness.

The empire was powerful but it was not the only land of power in this world. As such, everything that had to do with the Pheros had to be done in secret and with uttermost carefulness.

For her brother to have given Elysia this delicate task and told her how much he trusted her and her ability, Elysia would have to find a way to repay that trust somehow.

"I am very thankful you agreed to do this favor for me, Lady Dirac. This means a lot to the kids and me."

Lady Pheros did not shy away from praising Elysia either and it made her shy and nervous. Lady Pheros was going out of her way to come and meet Elysia as well.

She had her carriage which she had chosen to take with the twins but Lady Pheros still walked toward Elysia once they decided to get off.

"Finally, the land is beneath my feet once again. The carriage made me feel sick to my stomach. I never knew I could even get motion sick."

Enma\'s complaining voice came from behind Elysia. He was currently trying his best to not vomit his lunch but it seemed to be unsuccessful.

His green-tinted face was evidenced enough of how bad he felt.

"No, it\'s nothing Lady Pheros. I am happy to help out in any way I can."

Elysia wanted to go and help Enma but she had a feeling that her help would not be appreciated by him. He was still on the outlook when it came to her.

So Elysia had no choice but to signal for Sorias to do it in her stead. Her familiar looked disgusted but he did not fight her on this either.

For all his complaining and talks about not liking Enma, Sorias was rather soft-hearted and would help him out.

And her familiar did help Enma out. Elysia could see them interacting right behind her back but she only occasionally glanced at them. She did not want to interpret their moment and whatever was budding between them.

"Umm, Lady Dirac, I think there are things you should know before we reach my home. And I also need to tell you to be careful with my husband. He is not exactly a stable man."

Lady Pheros sounded both bitter and angry as she said that. But fear was mixed in her voice as well which made Elysia finally sit down and listen to her. It seemed like an important story.

"As everyone knows, I am not my husband\'s first wife. Rather, I am not even his second or third but his fourth one. All the earlier ones ended up dying for unknown reasons. The only reason I ended up marrying him was that I was carrying his children before marriage."

"B-But that\'s not what I wanted to tell you. You see, my point is that - anyone who married the Baron ended up dying within a few years. To think I managed to survive this long is a miracle in itself. So please be careful while you are there."

Elysia nodded to show that she understood. The Baron was a dangerous man who would not hesitate to kill even his wife if it came down to that.

It was something Elysa had expected to hear but it still surprised her somewhat.

\'If three women ended up dying before the current Lady Pheros, then I can see why she is so worried about herself. There is a lot of reason to be careful.\'

It was nice of Lady Pheros to warn Elysia about this beforehand. She will share this news with Sorias and Enma once they were alone.

While Enma might be a child, he was far more intelligent than people gave him credit for. Seeing him reminded Elysia of her childhood when she was misunderstood by people who saw her as simply a \'child\'.

"Oh, and I am sure my husband will not dare to touch someone of such high standing as Lady Dirac but still, be careful once you arrive at my home. I do not want to see Lady Dirac suffer under any circumstances."

Lady Pheros was a brave one to say all that and Elysia appreciated the warning. It eased her mind to have someone like Lady Pheros on her side.

But it was time to end this talk science both Enma and Sorias were heading their way. Enma\'s face still looked green but much better than before.

"Are you feeling alright now?"

Elysia asked the kid who gave her a death stare before blanking his face. His eyes read, \'do you think I am alright, but he did not say anything to her.

All he did was a nod to show that he was alright and sat in the corner with a blank face. He looked pitiful and even Lady Pheros took pity on him.

"Don\'t worry too much. We will arrive at the Pheros estate in a short while and then you can rest. I can ask the chefs to prepare a secret recipe for you to elevate any discomfort you are feeling because of these long travels."

"I am sure the Perrusia remedy will be to your liking and effective as well since they use magic in their potions."

Elysia expected the kid to feel better but he looked even worse after hearing the news. His face which had been green went white with fear and he looked up alarmed.

"Perrusia? PERRUSIAN EMPIRE? Hey, is it too late to turn back now? I-I am suddenly not feeling good at all. How did I forget that the Pheros land was located at the border? Oh god, this is bad…."

The kid was panicking badly now, his breath coming out shallow and ragged. He would drive himself into an early grave if he did not stop and correct himself right this second.

But before Elysia could make a move, someone else did and slapped Enma on the back. It was none other than Sorias who did that.

"Stop panicking and listen to us. We are not going to Perrusia, nor will we be having any dealing with that empire. You do not need to panic running into anyone from that empire on the way."

Soria\'s words finally hit the mark as the child calmed down. But he still looked a little uncomfortable because of his small attack.

\'Maybe this kid is from the Perrusian empire and running away from home? Maybe that is why he is so scared all the time and cares to look around his surroundings. I will try not to press him too much if that is the case.\'

Elysia would keep her distance for now and the kid will be alright.
