Chapter 1269
After the glitters of lights in the back yard went out, Roland met the witch Wendy had mentioned in her report .
She looked pretty young and extremely thin, around 16 to 17 years old at most . Apparently, she did not eat well . Although she had already taken a shower, her tawny hair was straggly and unkempt . What caught Roland's attention was the black eye mask over her face . Although she had already put on a new one, the eye mask did not really sit well on her face .
"Your Majesty, this is Momo," Wendy introduced .
Wendy's words jerked the girl out of the trance, who scrambled to kneel down and bowed even lower . "Your, Your Majesty . . . "
"Please help her up," Roland said as he put down the drawing and said mildly, "Don't be nervous . It's not a formal meeting or anything . I just want to see your ability . "
Momo looked frightened as she straightened up . "Your Majesty . . . I'm afraid . . . "
"I know . Not everyone will be satisfied when they know when they'll die . Some people will even take it on you after they know the answer," Roland comforted . "But I just want to know when that is . No matter what the result is, I won't blame you . I promise . "
Normally, he should have seen Momo after Wendy tested her ability . However, as Momo's ability was so special, he could not help . His curiosity was too strong to overcome . In fact, after the Battle of Soulagainst Zero, there remained a suspicion in Roland's mind that he could not confirm .
But now, he finally had an opportunity to do so .
"Your Majesty . . . " Momo replied through clenched teeth . "Aren't you . . . not scared at all?"
Roland knew he would have never thought about when he would die in the past because he had believed such a question was meaningless . Knowing how long he could live would only create unnecessary fear and worries . However, as he was now the king of the state, he felt great responsibility be placed on his shoulders . He had to think further . If Wendy's report was accurate, the date of his own death could be very useful information . It might be viewed as a "top secret" that would not be so easily divulged in his previous world . He would thus feel very regretted if he did not obtain this informationwhen provided with such an opportunity .
Roland smiled . He knew Momo would not understand his thought, so he said, "Even if I'm scared, the answer is still there . "
Momo clenched her fists . After what seemed to be quite a long hesitation, she replied, "Since you insist, then please excuse my impertinence . "
"Your Majesty," Wendy said after taking a deep breath . "Please excuse me . "
Roland stared at her for a moment before he said, " . . . I thought you and Scroll wanted to know it more than anyone else . "
"I can't be that calm like you . However, like Scroll said, whatever the result is, we'll always be with you . "
After Wendy shut the door, Roland turned around and asked, "What about you?"
Momo was stunned .
"Do I have to answer?" Nightingale said, whose sudden appearance really startled the little girl . "I want to know everything about you, both good and bad . "
Roland was amused by the big difference between Nightingale and Wendy . "So, let's begin . "
Momo's eyes shoveled from Nightingale to Roland in surprise and then took off her eye mask decisively .
