The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1557

However, her train of thought was cut short when a pleasant voice called out, “Xoie? Xylina! Where have both of you been this entire time?”

Hearing that, Xylina then replied, “Ah! Mila! Well, we were earlier-”

Much to Xoie’s relief, Xylina managed to recall their earlier promise in time which prevented her from blurting out everything.

Either way, after a slight nudge from Xoie, Xylina quickly recovered her wits as she continued, “…We… were earlier just having a look around out here! After all, the sea is rather beautiful at night, wouldn’t you say?”

In response, Mila simply smiled subtly as she nodded before replying, “While I know it isn’t exactly easy to negotiate with the King in the North, you have to remember that our adoptive father specifically chose us to complete the task. With that in mind, while things are currently a little boring, we should really try to obey adoptive father’s orders and refrain from wandering around outside!”

“We get it Mila… Regardless, I’ve brought back some medicine that I ordered some subordinates of mine to get for you. You always seemed to suffer from serious headaches every night, so I thought I’d get you something to help calm your nerves. I got the idea when I heard that strange and valuable herbs existed on earth, you see. Following that, I got my subordinates to pick a few relevant ones for you!” explained Xoie as she took out the strange and invaluable medicine that her subordinates had prepared.

After handing it to Mila, Xoie then cleared her throat before asking, “…Speaking of which, how familiar are you with this world…?”

Mila had a rather mysterious history. After all, while she hadn’t mastered any forms of training, she was an incredibly smart person. Due to that, the old lady always had Mila by her side. After some time, the old lady found herself appreciating Mila’s efforts so much that Xoie’s father felt that it was only right to adopt her into the family!

With that in mind, despite Mila only being his adoptive daughter, Xoie’s father had chosen her to be the main spokesperson for the negotiation instead of her! Due to that, Xoie would be lying if she said she wasn’t at least a little jealous.

After all, Xoie clearly more outstanding than Mila in terms of experience, appearance, and strength. Hell, Mila had begun her life here as nothing more but the old lady’s maid! Why was she being given so much power and respect now? As if that wasn’t already enough, Xoie had just found out that there was an extremely strong person who seemed to like her!
