NovelEnglishAfter yesterday's events, Atlas didn't letout of sight for a moment and insisted on takingwith him tonight.
Dylan and the others split up to make arrangements for the next steps after discussing sbusiness.
Atlas instructedto go upstairs and nap, so I had no choice but toply.
With Arnold and Hana gone, many things suddenly went quiet.
Meanwhile, Anya was catching up with Loak. She would return to Navi's base with Dylan later.
As night fell, Atlas and I freshened up. He had already prepared the clothes I was supposed to wear.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWe set off on time, apanied only by Cane and another bodyguard I recognized from yesterday's shopping trip. It seemed he hadn't been injured.
I had worried if he could handle the situation, facing four adversaries alone, but now it appeared he was quite professional. We left Anya at the hotel since Atlas said she wasn't ready to show her face publicly.
The night scenery here was enchanting, with the streetlights casting colorful reflections, making every building look wonderful. The car kept moving along the main street, passing by many landmarks, so there was always a steady stream of people on the street.
I wasn't nervous with Atlas by my side, but what worriedwas whether we would reach an agreement when we met Navi.
I speculated that Atlas wouldn't hand over the notebook easily.
After a long journey, the car finally stopped in front of a mansion with a small square. The scene before us was breathtakingly beautiful, showcasing the unique culture of this country.
Could this be Navi's residence? It was very grand, indicating that he wasn't just all talk.
During their discussion at noon, I had overheard that Navi's financial power was staggering.
It seemed Navi should really thank my foster father, who had ruined his own life but laid the foundation for Navi's wealth. However, their actions were despicable.
As a gesture of goodwill, he had arranged for the meeting to be at his home.
"Don't leave my side," Atlas remindedbefore getting out of the car.
"Got it," I replied.
Atlas got out of the car and helpedout. I looped my arm through his and we walked confidently inside.
Every corner of the garden exuded the rich cultural heritage of Cirencester, with all the landscape lights illuminating the mansion, making it even more magnificent and dazzling. en.kikistories A trusted confidant of Navi, who looked like a butler, greeted us at the entrance and led us to the front door of the main house.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI saw a group of people standing there. The one in the lead was standing tall in the middle, elevated on a step. He held a pipe in one hand. The other hand was behind his back, and he exuded an air of elegance. en.kikistories He was dressed in a white robe, their country's traditional attire, and his semi-long black hair was slicked back giving him amanding presence. en.kikistories However, his eyes seemed different. He appeared to be smiling, and a hint of cunning lurked in them.
Atlas escortedconfidently toward him.
There were only two people behind us, unlike the group standing behind him.
But even in the face of such power disparity, I could feel that Atlas's presence was stronger, as though he was a king.
Navi was the host and had put on a show, but he still seemed lackluster.
We saw through Navi's ostentation.
When he saw us approaching, he quickly walked down the steps with a smile. "Mr. Atlas, we finally meet." Navi spoke in our language.
Atlas smiled lightly. "We were bound to meet sooner or later, Mr. Navi." Atlas's words were domineering, asserting that it was inevitable for them to meet.
Navi had detained our family, so we had to meet each other eventually. It was only a matter of time.
Navi remained unruffled, stepping aside to let us in. "Mr. Atlas, please." Atlas escortedinside without hesitation, striding confidently into the mansion, paying no attention to Navi's menacing henchmen on either side.
