She Professed Herself The Pupil Of The Wiseman

Chapter 121: The Warehouse Facility, Again (2)

Mira peered on their faces, but it was too dark to make anything certain out, making it impossible to Examine their names.

Asking them directly was the next best thing. Even if they were not Johanns wife and daughter, they were still Chimera Clauzens hostages and could give a lead to other people being forced to help them.

And in the off-chance they were actually members of Chimera Clauzen, they could still provide valuable information.

Mira glanced towards Sasori to make sure they were on the same page, and once Sasori nodded she gently rocked the womans shoulder. Mira moved her body once, two, and three times, then by the fourth the woman finally began opening her eyes.

Mmm Anne? What happened?

She muttered half asleep, looking at the bed next to hers and seeing her daughter fast asleep. Cocking her head in confusion, having thought the child had woken her up, the woman eventually decided she had just dreamed it.

Over here.

The woman had started patting her daughters head when Mira spoke to her as gently as possible to not startle her. But considering the situation there was only one possible outcome, as soon as she heard Miras voice, the woman tensed up and her back twitched in fright.

Huh..?

Afraid and hesitating, the woman slowly turned around until she could see Mira.

The dim light entering the room reflected on Miras hair, making it shine like silver threads, while her white translucent skin captured the rest of the light, looking like the ephemeral image of a beautiful girl floating in the darkness.

The way she looked under that light was just like the manifestation of an angel. That sight left the woman breathless, even though she was in such a confusing situation. But that lasted only for a short while, as the woman quickly noticed Sasoris cat eyes glowing in the darkness behind Mira.

Nghuh!

As her eyes began to wide and her mouth opened, Mira instantly put her hand to the womans mouth to silence her. Worthramble was keeping the room quiet, but it was faster to keep her quiet and explain everything to her calmly.

Are you Angelique? Johanns wife?

Mira looked straight into her eyes while checking if she was the person they were looking for. They had already heard her call the girl Anne, which matched one of the names provided by Johann. And just as they thought, the woman nodded affirming their hunch.

Your husband asked us to rescue you. Were not your enemies.

Mira explained trying to not startle her too much, to which Angelique replied with another nod and Mira slowly pulled her hand away.

Umm is my husband safe?

Mira took a step behind as Angelique spoke at the brink of tears, her trembling hand clinging onto Miras shoulder as if trying to find something to support herself on.

Yes, nothing bad happened to him. You can rest easy.

Mira spoke with a gentle voice, like she was comforting a child, and softly petted Angeliques head.

Angelique managed to calm down shortly after and they were able to converse about many things. She had been told very little of her current situation, not knowing why she was really there.

They had told her one of Johanns experiments had failed and that it might have adverse effects on her and her daughter, so they had to quarantine them there. They were held there for almost five years now.

In response, Mira explained in broad terms exactly what had happened. How a criminal organization known as Chimera Clauzen had joined hands with the Melville Trading Corporation, and that Johanns father had developed something important for them.

But when Johanns father passed away, he read through his fathers notes and learned what he had re
