The Lady Nun Seeks Justice (Eliza Stonor) novel Chapter 588

588.Chapter 588

Just as Eliza and Nolan spotted the outline of Malone City, a tiny black speck suddenly shot out from the shadows on their flank, streaking straight toward Eliza.

“Smack!”

“Clang!”

Vexara and Nolan reacted almost simultaneously. Vexara’s wing lashed out, sending the black speck flying, while Nolan’s dagger followed in a flash, pinning the speck to the cave wall.

The entire sequence unfolded in the blink of an eye, leaving Eliza momentarily stunned. By the time she realized what had happened, the black speck was already dead, pinned to the wall. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a parasite no larger than a fingernail.

*Stay alert! There’s more than one,” Nolan warned, his voice sharp as he instinctively moved to shield Eliza behind him. Vexara let out a piercing screech, the sound cutting through the air like an angry roar.

Eliza’s gaze sharpened as she fixed her eyes on the gates of Malone City. “Someone’s corning,” she said, her tone tense. Soon, chaotic footsteps echoed from the gates. A group of armed men stormed out, their faces dark with murderous intent, each wielding swords and sabers.

“Who dares trespass into Malone City!” The man at the front shouted, his gaze sharp and menacing as he stared at the exit of the tunnel.

He shouted, “Stop hiding and show yourself! Or don’t blame us for cutting you down without mercy!”

Eliza shot Nolan a glance, her thoughts clear. ‘The parasite that attacked us earlier must have delivered the message to its

master.‘

Since that was the case, there was no need to stay hidden anymore.

Nolan gave a slight nod and stepped forward, his presence commanding.

Eliza and the others followed closely behind.

As they emerged, Eliza’s gaze swept over the group led by the man, but the sorcerer was nowhere to be seen.

“Tell your leader to come out and answer me,” Nolan said coldly, stopping just outside the stronghold of Malone City. His blade gleamed ominously, and his piercing gaze froze the guards in place.

Behind him, the Black Flag soldiers stood like predators, their sharp eyes brimming with lethal intent. Though outnumbered by the dozens of Vanstead guards, their aura was suffocating.

“So, you’re Nolan, the Prince Regent?” The man eyed him warily, his tone laced with caution.

“You know who I am, yet you dare stand while speaking to me?” Nolan sneered, his voice dripping with disdain.

The man immediately bristled, as if deeply insulted. “You!”

“Theo.” At that moment, a raspy voice of an elderly lady echoed from behind them.

The dozens of guards of Malone City immediately parted to either side, clearing a path down the middle.

An elderly lady emerged, her golden cane striking the ground with deliberate authority. Supported by a middle–aged man

with sinister air, she advanced with measured steps, her presence commanding attention.

Her murky gaze settled on Nolan. She bowed slightly and said, “Your Highness, what an unexpected honor. Forgive me for not welcoming you properly.”

“Mother!”

“Grandmother!”

The man behind her stepped forward, but Sariyah Malone snapped, “You fools! Show some respect and bow to His Highness!”

He came with a small group. But if he were easy to deal with, Bortenland wouldn’t have a Prince Regent who stood above all but one.
