Chapter-130

Lord... Nilan looked at the pendant hanging in his master's belt with disapproval.

"Lord, it's almost a year. We have never seen her again. You had even deployed serpent forces in search of her. Lord... you don't even know her name; how long are you going to wait."

A calm smile caressed his face gently, "Nilan; I am not waiting for someone. I am keeping a promise."

"Lord maybe; but many are curious."

"Curious??"

"Yesterday, the crowned prince asked me about this pendant. It's not common for a prince to suddenly wear a pendant and keep it this long."

"Brother asked about this pendant?? What did you say?"

"I just told him you were interested. "

"hmm... It seems like we can only go to the bureau afternoon." He walked out and jumped on his horse, "First to the palace."

The streets were full of life. With the sudden galloping sound of horses, people moved from the road, some with respect and others with fear. The name serpent bureau was enough to be compared with a nightmare. It acted as the king's eyes and arms. Other than a king, he had the power to arrest any official in the country. It had all intel about the world.

Serpent bureau was silent. The guards were absent from the gate. Something was wrong; he was anxious. He took his double sword and slowly opened the gate. He was fretted at the sight inside. All the guards were standing in a round. Vakul rushed and pulled the guards to reach the eye of the circle.

"You... !!!" He was baffled. All the guards scattered at the sudden entry of their lord.

"I am late... Is the offer still valid??" She stood and extended her hands aiming at the hanging pendent on his waist belt.

The guards behind them murmured, "It's the girl lord has been looking for.. for almost a year... and she is here... "

He took the pendant and gifted it back, "Always."
