Chapter 208: Sneaking into the Fire Phoenix Mansion and Encountering Kosa
So Ophelia changed herself and Daner into the linen clothes she had made earlier and left the space.
Because she had just observed that most of the residents of the Holy City were wearing linen.
She was wearing animal skins before, which made her very conspicuous in the crowd. It was obvious at a glance that she was not from the Holy City.
Because she didn't know the exact location of the Fire Phoenix Clan, Ophelia didn't dare to ask anyone casually.
She could only take Daner and search around the city blindly, but after searching for a long time she still couldn't find the location of the Fire Phoenix Clan.
"Dan'r, can you sense where your father Zeref is? Let's go find him first."
"Yes, Mother."
Daner nodded and began to sense Zeref's location.
It was not until noon that Daner sensed Zeref's location.
"Mother, over there."
Ophelia quickly picked up Dan and walked towards the direction he pointed.
But after walking for a while, Daner in her arms suddenly began to tremble.
"Dan, what's wrong with you?"
"Mom, my body hurts so much. They are hurting Cohen again."
Ophelia immediately became anxious when she heard this. She stopped where she was, not knowing what to do.
"Mother, I can sense Cohen over there." The pain strengthened the connection between Daner and Cohen.
Ophelia looked at where Zeref was, then looked at where Coen was, and they were in opposite positions.
Now that Danel was in danger, she couldn't waste any more time looking for Zeref.
So Ophelia hugged Daner tightly in her arms and ran towards Cohen.
When they ran to a magnificent mansion, Daner was sure that Cohen was inside.
"Mother, Cohen is here and they are still hurting him."
"Okay, you go into the space first, I'll find a chance to go in."
Ophelia took Daner into the space and tidied up her clothes that were messy from running.
She walked calmly to the gate of the mansion.
The male guarding the gate stopped her. "Who are you?"
"I'm the cousin of the Pterosaur clan. The Pterosaur clan leader sent me to pass on a message to the Fire Phoenix clan leader." Ophelia clenched her palms, pretending to be calm on the surface, but she was actually very panicked.
"The Pterosaur Family asked you to deliver a message?"
The two male guarding the gate had puzzled expressions on their faces. They didn't seem to have heard that the pterosaurs had any cousins?
Moreover, the two family heads usually came in person to deliver messages, and did not ask others to deliver the messages.
"Why don't you believe it? Why don't you go and ask the Pterosaur Patriarch yourself?" Ophelia pretended to be angry.
The two male guarding the gate believed her a little more when they saw her like this.
However, they were still very cautious. "Wait here while I report to the head of the family and see if he wants to see you."
"Okay, I'll wait here."
Ophelia didn't get flustered by the male's words.
After everyone left, Ophelia secretly observed the remaining male gatekeeper, secretly estimating in her mind the probability that she could knock the male out.
Thinking that Cohen might be being tortured now, she didn't care about anything else.
She pretended to fall to the ground accidentally, "Ah, it hurts."
"My ankle is injured and I can't get up. Come and help me."
The male gatekeeper had no doubts and rushed forward to help.
But as soon as he bent down and stretched out his hand, he felt a pain in his neck, then his eyes went black and he fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Ophelia didn't care about anything else. She picked up her linen skirt and walked into the Fire Phoenix Mansion.
She didn't know where Cohen was, so she found a room and hid there.
As luck would have it, she happened to be hiding in Kosa's room.
"Ophelia, how did you get in here?" Kosa was a little surprised to see Ophelia suddenly breaking in.
But before 1 could react and call for help, Ophelia had already put the dagger to his neck.
"Where's Cohen?"
"Give up on this idea. I won't tell you." A gloomy look flashed in Kosa's eyes, and he refused to reveal Cohen's location.
Ophelia hardened her heart and increased the strength of her hands, and a blood mark immediately appeared on Kosa's neck.
Blood trickled down his neck.
Kosa's pupils shrank slightly. He thought Ophelia was just trying to scare him, but he didn't expect that she would actually dare to do it.
"Will you tell me?"
"I won't tell." Kosa looked ready to die.
He would not give Ophelia the chance to rescue Cohen. He and Ophelia were already mortal enemies.
Even if he dies, he wants Ophelia to die with him.
So he shouted, "Someone's attacking, someone's attacking."
Ophelia narrowed her eyes, raised her hand and thrust the dagger into Kosa's neck, causing blood to gushed out like a fountain.
Kosa covered his neck and could no longer speak.
Ophelia bit her lip and brought Daner out of the space again.
"Dan Er, hurry up and sense Cohen's location."
Upon hearing this, Daner did not dare to waste time and sensed it patiently.
"Mother is in the south. There is a small hill in the south with a cave inside."
Because the distance was closer, Daner could sense the location more accurately.
At this moment, there were messy footsteps outside, obviously attracted by the sound Kosa just made.
Ophelia was not panicked and took Daner into the space.
Soon the door was opened and two male Fire Phoenix tribe members walked in.
As soon as they came in, they saw Kosa lying on the ground, covered in blood.
A male stepped forward and helped him up. "Xosa?"
At this time, Kosei was still holding on to his breath, and his pupils were dilated.
He couldn't understand why Ophelia suddenly disappeared from his sight, but he was sure that Ophelia had not left the room.
He wanted to alert the two males, but because of the scar on his neck, he couldn't speak at all. He could only stare at the place where Ophelia had just disappeared.
The two males naturally didn't know what he meant, and they had no intention of saving Kosa. They just watched him die silently.
"Kosa is dead. Should we tell the head of the family?"
"No need. He is just a male from a low-ranking tribe. The head of the family won't care if he lives or dies."
"You're right."
"Ever since he arrived, he's been relying on the patriarch's favor to compete with us. Now he deserves to be dead."
"I wonder who killed him?"
The male glanced at his companion. "Whoever killed him did a good deed anyway."
"That's right."
The two males had no intention of looking for the murderer behind the scenes. They exchanged a few words and left the room.
Ophelia walked out of the space only after the footsteps of the two people completely disappeared.
She saw the male lying on the ground with his eyes open and couldn't help but shook her head.
It is amazing that a person can achieve what Kosa has achieved. Even his death would not cause any fuss.
Ophelia waited for a while and when she didn't hear any footsteps outside, she walked in the direction Daner said.
Whenever she encountered a place with people along the way, she would hide in the space and come out after everyone left.
There were two times when they were face to face with someone, but she disappeared the next second. The people of the Fire Phoenix Clan searched for her for a while but didn't see her, so they thought they were dazzled.
In this way, Ophelia successfully reached the hill in the south and found the cave that Daner mentioned.
