Nora didn’t say anything when she heard Trueman.

She merely continued to look ahead as she asked, “Where’s Xander?”

She didn’t know how Trueman would react to the old King’s death. Under such uncertain circumstances, she decided not to say anything for the time being.

Trueman snorted coldly. “He’s waiting for us ahead!”

He didn’t ask any more questions but narrowed his eyes instead.

Two hours later, Trueman suddenly said, “Stop.”

Nora stopped the car and looked around.

There was only wilderness and nothing else around. She didn’t know why Trueman wanted to stop here. She had only just started wondering when Trueman opened the car door, got out, and started walking away.

Nora also got out of the car and followed after him.

“Why are you following me?”

Trueman’s voice was sharp and piercing as he scoffed and said, “I’m going to take a leak. Do you want to join me?”

Nora: “????”

She frowned and returned to the car.

She slipped her hand into a pocket in her pants. There, she had a fingernail-sized transmitter that she could use to make contact with the outside world once she pressed the switch.

Just as she was about to press the switch, she saw Trueman standing at the car window, looking at her with a smile.

Nora: “…”

“Get out.”

Nora got out of the car. Trueman took out a scanner that he had gotten from somewhere and started to scan all over her body. As a result…

When he scanned her hair, the scanner beeped.

Trueman frowned. “Take it out!”
