Chapter 236: Chapter 236: The Last Night Chapter 236: Chapter 236: The Last Night “Gwent Card?”

Upon hearing the information obtained from the investigation, Egger’s eyelids twitched wildly.

She was an expert in divination, and many things could be understood just by a careful analysis of their principles.

“What about that young man named Roger and Hathaway?” Suddenly remembering the names she heard at the hotel, a bad premonition arose in her heart.

At the Spiritual Energy School, Egger had three disciples and a dozen students, and teaching them was already the limit of her energy.

This conference came from the revelation of a dream, where Egger would meet an important person who would affect many of her choices to come.

Not long ago, Egger had thought that person would be Heller.

But now, hearing the detailed information from the conference and the things Nicole had done in secret, she suddenly realized that it was Hathaway, or rather the young man named Roger, who would bring significant changes to her life.

“They have already left the conference…”

“They should be in this hotel. Not long ago, according to the hotel staff, they came out of Mr. Heller’s room and were escorted away by someone named Terry…”

Her head buzzed loudly.

Egger could no longer hear what was said afterwards.

After an unknown amount of time, a knock on the door suddenly came from outside, and Nicole asked softly.

“Teacher, Mr. Heller sent someone to notify that he is now available. I wonder if you…”

Had it been any other day, Egger would have been overjoyed, but at this moment, her heart was shaken.

“Find those two people…”

Egger hesitated for a moment.

“First, find them, then wait for my return.”

A flash of rage crossed her face, but she quickly forced herself to calm down.

“Nicole, get ready to accompany me to see Mr. Heller.”

Her own disciple, huh.

……

“Miss Egger, I’m delighted to see you.”

As soon as they met, Heller couldn’t wait to share his good mood.

“Kazhen is a lucky place. Here I have taken on a new student and encountered a brand-new divination method.”

“You are the expert on that.”

Heller, with a smile brimming on his face, pointed to the books and cards on the table.

“This is something marvelous.”

“Gwent Cards!”

As the voice reached her ears, Egger’s brain roared, and she shook her somewhat heavy head, flipping through the book on the table.

As she read on, a bone-deep regret spread through her heart, “If only I had persisted a little longer, even just taken another look, this item should be on my table by now, right?”

The more valuable the item in her hand, the deeper the bitterness in her heart.

“Is there a problem?”

Heller’s head shone brightly, asking with some puzzlement.

“No, nothing.”

“Congratulations, Mr. Heller!”

Egger closed the book in her hands and handed it to Nicole by her side, “Take a look.”

At that moment, Nicole felt cold in her limbs. From Heller’s and Egger’s attitudes, she could discern the immense value of the Gwent Cards.

Could it be that Roger and Hathaway…

Stiffly flipping through the book in her hands and combining it with the cards on the table, Nicole became increasingly shocked, her body swaying slightly, trembling nonstop.

She knew she was finished.

“I apologize, Mr. Heller, there’s still a small matter to handle at the conference. If there’s time, I’ll come disturb you again later.”

Her mind was restless, and as her speculations became reality, she couldn’t stay in the room any longer.

“That sounds good; take care of yourself and rest well.” Heller seemed to have noticed something, but he didn’t say anything, just consoled her with a few words.

“Nicole!”

A name squeezed out from her throat.

Nicole, sweating profusely, bowed her head, following behind Egger as they left.

The hallway was silent, neither of them spoke as they rode the elevator down to another room.

As soon as they entered the room, Nicole’s step faltered, almost collapsing to the ground, her fear having built up to its limits.

The calmer Egger appeared, the more terrified she became.

“Teacher, please listen to me explain…”

“Get out!!”

A massive roar invaded Nicole’s mind as if a giant hammer had struck her head. Her body uncontrollably staggered backward, tumbling several times on the ground.

With disheveled hair, Nicole had just stood up when she saw the indifference in Egger’s eyes.

“Get out!”

“Take your stupid brother with you and get far away from me!”

“Don’t let me see you again.”

“You’ve been expelled!”

“Teacher…”

Nicole called out in desperation; everything she now possessed was inextricably linked to the figure standing behind her–Egger. Without this identity, she would lose far too much.

Egger said nothing. The face of the previously kind middle-aged woman now wore only indifference.

“Get out while I haven’t changed my mind.”

Had it not been for Nicole’s forceful intervention, the Gwent card would now be in her own hands.

Thinking about this outcome, Egger felt a surge of blood rush to her head.

Nicole suddenly realized something–she understood the hint of danger hidden in Egger’s eyes. She quickly scrambled up from the floor and left through the door.

At this moment, getting away safely was the best outcome.

As night fell, the last group left the island by boat and returned to Kazhen City. Miles walked with a light step, deciding that he should relax properly tonight.

The results would be announced tomorrow, and if nothing unexpected happened, there would be a banquet in the evening. At that time, he would become the absolute protagonist…

With a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, he made an effort to maintain his composure, just when the bell rang.

It was Nicole.

“Where are you?”

The voice on the phone was ice cold.

Miles, feeling a bit guilty, glanced at the flickering sign above his head, “Blue Mist Bar…”

“Wait there for me.”

She hung up right after speaking.

Declining the invitations of several beautiful women with a pleasant mood, it wasn’t long before Nicole appeared at the entrance of the bar.

“What happened that you couldn’t say over the phone?”

Miles laughed lightly, but soon he was astonished to see that his always impeccably dressed sister was now looking rather disheveled.

“Could it be that the teacher wants to see…”

“The teacher?!”

A fire ignited within Nicole, her arm raising.

“Slap!”

A crisp slap landed on Miles’s face.

“Slap! Slap! Slap!”

The next second, before he could react, three consecutive slaps struck the same spot.

“Are you insane?!”

Miles cried out, but Nicole seemed not at all intent on sparing him, frantically venting the emotions within her.

As the world spun around him, he saw several familiar figures among the surrounding crowd; they were spirit mediums he had met during exchange meetings.

“The guy getting beaten looks like Miles.”

“The woman hitting him is pretty beautiful.”

“Haha!”

Someone suddenly laughed out loud.

“Could it be that he didn’t pay up for some special deal?”

“Forget it, forget it, don’t rubberneck.”

The voices of the few people gradually faded away.

“Let’s find a quiet place and play a few rounds of Gwent.”

Nobody knew that this was the last time Miles would be seen in Kazhen.

At this time, Roger blissfully spent his last night in Kazhen.
