Chapter 155
“Hehe,”
Halle chuckled and hopped her way into the house.
She had been drunk when she was here the other time, so she did not get the chance to tour the legendary mansion. Therefore, she was extremely excited this time. Andrius was worried about her making a mess, so he quickly said, “I have things to do. You be careful when you walk around the house. It’s… dangerous here.”
He knew the First War God well. The man was meticulous but also suspicious.
A few years ago, the First War God went on a mission and unfortunately got surrounded by enemies. He contacted the base for reinforcements, but when reinforcements arrived, he was completely fine and healthy.
The enemies who surrounded him, on the other hand, fell into his traps and were tortured terribly.
Some of the allies who went to his rescue accidentally fell into one of his traps as well. Given his suspicious personality, the First War God set up many traps in the Royal Garden. Andrius was able to spot quite a number of them.
“Got it, I got it!” Halle answered without being too concerned.
She even got curious and wondered if Andrius was having secrets in the house.
Halle looked around curiously and decided to uncover more of Andrius‘ secrets.
Andrius did not care about the nosy Halle. After he told her to be careful, he went back to deal with his military affairs like usual.
Halle toured around the house, feeling excited with every new discovery.
After all, the Royal Garden was lavishly decorated.
“Huh? This is…”
Halle spotted a locked room that had not been opened for a long time. It piqued her curiosity. She turned the door handle and saw something that she had never seen before at the window.
Intrigued, she went closer to have a look.
To her surprise, before she could reach the strange–looking item, a net fell from the ceiling, caught her, tightened, and lifted her up into the air.
Everything happened within five seconds. Halle could not even react in time.
“Aaaaah!”
She only realized that she was trapped when she was hanging in the air and screamed her lungs out.
“What the hell is this?! Let me out! Andrius, where are you? Save me! Help! I’m hanging in the air!”
Fortunately, Andrius heard her screams and came to her rescue.
He was both amused and annoyed when he saw her hanging in the air. “I told you not to meddle around, but you didn’t listen to me. Look at what you’ve gotten yourself into! Let this be a lesson to you, and think twice before meddling around again.”
Halle was so upset that she shouted, “Stop laughing! Let me down!”
Swoosh!
Andrius threw a knife at the net.
Snap!
The net broke and Halle fell from two meters.
Thud!
She landed on the floor on her bottom, which prevented her from getting hurt, but she had a solid fall.
“Andrius, you…” Halle was fuming, her chest heaving strongly. “Can you treat a girl nicely? Couldn’t you just catch me?”
She stomped her feet and flailed her arms angrily, and suddenly, she triggered another underlying trap.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Several arrows were fired at Halle from both sides of the wall.
