Chapter 263 – Someone Eyes Papa
As it turned out, it was the correct decision on the part of Mana, Raven, Jules and Bella to have a defensive perimeter set up in King Jaren's room.
Around midnight, Mana and Raven were awakened by a knock on their door.
Bleary eyed, the two children went over to see who had come looking for them at this hour – since they hadn't triggered the array, it was clear that they bore no ill intent towards either of them.
It was Head Sage Yue, looking rather worried. He was in his pyjamas and his forehead was dripping with sweat, and his breathing was heavy. He seemed to have rushed out of his own room and run all the way to them.
"Father?" Raven asked sleepily, rubbing his eyes. "Why are you here at this time?"
Head Sage Yue looked immensely relieved to see both Mana and Raven. "So you were here," he murmured. "Thank heavens. I went to your room and there was no response, so I was worried…"
"Is something wrong?" Mana asked bluntly.
