518.Chapter 518

Eliza snapped out of her thoughts, instinctively shaking her head. “It’s nothing, I…”

She was about to explain, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she suddenly realized Nolan’s face was now very close to

hers

His warm breath brushed across her face. When she looked up, her eyes met his, full of concern. Eliza, who had never been this close to a man before, blushed instantly. She quickly turned her head, putting me distance between herself and Nolan.

Eliza stammered, “I’m not sick. I just suddenly remembered something and got lost in thought for a moment.”

Nolan, who had only intended to check her temperature by getting close, now realized just how close they had been. When he saw Eliza’s face flushed bright red, he couldn’t help but grin. He savored the image of her face in his mind before asking, his tone deliberately casual, “What were you thinking about?”

Eliza responded, “It’s just a problem I ran into. If you need help, Ross is here. He can take care of it.”

Ross, who had been quite perceptive, immediately sensed that it was time to help Nolan shine.

A strange feeling told him this was his chance to impress.

So, he slapped his chest proudly, declaring, “If you need anything, just let me know! Whether it’s capturing people, beating them up, or even killing them, the Black Flag soldiers are at your service!”

Eliza couldn’t help but laugh and sigh, “Killing isn’t necessary.”

If she needed someone killed, Tina would handle it herself.

It wouldn’t be good to have this high–ranking officer helping her with that.

Even if she and Nolan were close, that wasn’t something she could ask.

Eliza said, “As for capturing or beating people, that won’t be necessary today. If I need help in the future, I’ll definitely call on Vice General.”

Ross immediately beamed with pride. “I’ll make sure it’s done beautifully for you!”

He was still grinning, pleased with himself.

Nolan, of course, was satisfied with that.

But when Ross turned around, he noticed that Nolan was now smiling at him in a way that didn’t seem entirely friendly. Ross thought, ‘That smile looks… a little dangerous.’

Instantly on alert, Ross quickly backed off and became more subdued.

Nolan nearly rolled his eyes. ‘I knew I shouldn’t have brought him along.’

What was supposed to be a peaceful time between him and Serenity had been interrupted by this clumsy, annoying guy. Just then, Nolan’s eyes flicked over to Diana, who was busy poking at the insects.

‘Ah, right, I forgot she was here too.’

Diana, feeling the sudden pressure, stood silently.

Diana said, “I think I’m a bit hungry. I’ll go check the kitchen.”

Holding Eliza’s insects, she turned and quickly fled the scene.

The courtyard was suddenly left with just Eliza and Nolan.

Eliza looked at Diana’s retreating figure in confusion.

She glanced towards the kitchen and said, “Didn’t we just have lunch? Why are you already hungry?”

Nolan, who had just given Eliza a warning look, clenched his fist against his lips and cleared his throat. “Maybe her appetite just improved. By the way, this tracking parasite… since I don’t know what to feed it, I haven’t fed it since we caught it. You know more about these insects, do you know what it eats?”

Eliza replied, “My insects are fed with poison, but parasites shouldn’t be fed that way. I’ll try feeding it normal food.” Nolan brushed aside everything else and smoothly redirected Eliza’s attention back to the parasite.

And so, the two spent the afternoon in the sm Successfully unlocked! <ing parasite butterfly.

As the time passed, by the time they were ready to part ways, both rent quite satisfied, with one more successful experiment under their belt.

“Recently, Hasen City’s been too chaotic. You should avoid going down the mountain for the next few days, especially not into Hasen City. If you must go, take someone with you.”

As Eliza saw Nolan off, he only let her walk as far as the courtyard gate before stopping, turning to face her.

“Is it… because of those other race people?” Eliza asked, raising an eyebrow.

Nolan nodded, his expression serious. “Those people from the other race are definitely not simple. I suspected there were spies in Hasen City, and it seems I was right. As soon as they arrived, things started getting tense.”

Even the Hall of Eternity, which he had been investigating, had shown signs of activity.

Though it wasn’t obvious yet, he was patient enough to wait it out.

He was curious to see how many people would surface this time.

“I’ll stay in Hasen City to keep an eye on them. I won’t come looking for you, but I’ve left a squad of Black Flag soldiers at the base of the mountain. If you go out, you must take them with you. Understood?”
