Chapter 193 Getting The Keys



The tight security within the castle started to worry Damian. At first, he thought about just killing Miller and then using his telekinesis to fly away to safety.

But during his exploration of the courtyard, Damian noticed some strange carvings in specific points of the castle. Based on his knowledge, these were some kind of spell, one that protected the castle with an invisible barrier, not allowing anyone to fly by the castle walls.

Damian still had to get used to these kinds of things, as they were uncommon on Earth. However, the people who lived in the dungeon had a deeper understanding of them.

'So I can't fly out of here. I'll have to find another escape route. Maybe enter those locked rooms?'

He saw many locked doors inside the castle, and there were no guards guarding them! But the doors were still locked, so one could not enter. What Damian needed was a way to get in.

His mind worked as he strolled in the courtyard, trying to think of a person who might have the key to access those rooms.

'An ordinary guard? No way. Maybe the mentor who will leave in two days? Or someone else from Miller's family...'

The first person Damian wanted to check was the mentor who was currently inside the guard's barracks. It was a separate building at the back part of the castle, outside within the courtyard.

That's where the guards slept, and where the mentor's room was. This mentor was like the highest in command when it came to the guards, the captain, the person who commanded all the family's army, and was responsible for their training as well.

It was a respectable position, which made Damian wonder why Miller would put him as the one in charge. He was basically an unknown person, and such a position required trust.

'Everything about this place is starting to get odd. Why do they accept any guards without checking their backgrounds?' Damian thought.

Damian was pretty sure most of the guards working for the Snowheart family were once criminals, which did not make sense. How did Miller keep them leashed?

He knocked on the guard's barracks door, and one guard opened it.

"Who are you? Ah, the new arrival, right? What do you want?" the guard said in a harsh tone.

"I want to speak with the person in charge, if that's possible."

Judging by the look on that guard's face, he was not feeling like letting Damian meet the person in charge, but then someone appeared behind the guard.

"You can let him pass," a soft voice echoed.

The person in charge of the guards was a tall woman. She had blue hair and pale skin.

'Is she the person I have to kidnap if possible?' Damian thought.

Her skin and hair color matched the description, but it was stated on the note that the target was a frail lady who looked unhealthy, completely different from the woman before Damian.

The guard who blocked Damian's passage said nothing and left. He did not wish to anger the captain, who would make his life a living hell.

"Follow me to my room," she said, turning around and walking away.

As she walked, Damian could not help but stare at her butt, which was hella sexy with the tight leather armor she wore.

She led him to a small room with a desk, a few pieces of furniture that served as decoration, and that was it. It looked like an administrative area that the other guards did not have access to.

"So, what did you want to talk about?" she asked.

Damian scanned the room, and his eyes couldn't help but be drawn to a few keys hanging on the wall. Those had to be important!

"Yes, correct. I heard you are the person responsible for the training?" Damian said.

She crossed her legs and sat down in a chair behind the desk with a proud look on her face. "Yes, I am. Sorry, but I can't give you personal training."

The personal training that crossed Damian's mind was a different kind...

"That's not what I wanted to talk about. I heard you are leaving in two days?"

"Where did you hear that?"

Her eyes widened and she almost got up from her chair. Not even the guards knew about it, yet Damian, who had been in the castle for less than a day, knew.

"Don't act so surprised," Damian said with a smile. "Miller told me about it."

The moment Damian said the name Miller, the woman's expression changed slightly. It all happened quickly, but Damian was paying close attention so he noticed it.

"I see. But why are you so concerned about me leaving?" she asked.

"Miller said that if I do well in the guard's test, I can have a shot at becoming the captain while you are away," Damian said.

"What? Really? So you came here to ask about the position and if it is worth it?"

"Kind of."

She got up from her chair and started picking up some things scattered around the room while talking to Damian. "The two main differences are that guards have lower pay and work longer hours with patrol shifts, etc. But the job as captain, despite having a higher salary, also has more responsibilities and a lot of administrative work, as you can see here," she said, gesturing to the many papers on her desk.

"I see. I will still try to get the position, though. Also, do you want some help?"

"Yes, actually. You see those keys? Grab them and give them to me," she said, pointing to the keys hanging on the wall.

Damian was confused. "Aren't these keys necessary for the person working as captain?"

"Not at all. These are mine, and Miller said I should take them with me when I leave."

That was unexpected, but Damian was glad he had the chance to get close to the keys! He walked over to them and, after taking a closer look, he stealthily created a copy of all of them using his Slime Ring, storing them in his Spatial Ring immediately afterwards.

Everything happened quickly, and the captain looked the other way, not seeing what Damian had just done.

'Great! I can access the other rooms now!' Damian thought.

There was one doubt still lingering in his mind: what was behind those doors?
