Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 1998

Jenson was puzzled, thinking how Madam Nephele had managed to discover him. Suddenly, he felt something cold under his feet licking his ankle!

Jenson lowered his gaze and saw a black python staring at him with its dark eyes.

Jens was shocked! With the help of his equipment, he flew out of the courtyard.

Jenson patted his chest and looked back at the tree in shock, only to find that the python was gone.

Jenson returned to the rented house next to Imperial Domain Experimental Middle School.

That night, Jenson had a restless night.

The next day.

Jenson was woken up by Baby Robbie.

"Jens, when did you come back?"

Jenson got up lazily. He was still in a blur as he recalled what had happened at Madam Nephele's place last night. He was confused once more.

Baby Robbie studied Jenson's expression and said," Were there any obstacles in your investigation?"

Jenson told Baby Robbie about his adventures last

night. "I went to investigate Madam Nephele last night. It was so odd. I was well-hidden in the tree and Madam Nephele was inside the house. Suddenly, she turned her head and looked right at me. Her expression was one of provocation."

Baby Robbie said, "You must've been too tired. Maybe she was looking at the moonlight..."

Jenson added, "What's even weirder was that when I was hiding in the tree, a python attacked my ankle. I escaped with the help of my equipment, but when I turned back, the python was gone." "Python?" Baby Robbie exclaimed.

When Jenson saw Baby Robbie's reaction, he stared at him irritably. "Why are you so surprised?"

Baby Robbie picked up the water on the bedside table and finished it in a few sips. Then, he said, "Since I took over the Yorks family's seal, I've been having nightmares. I would dream of snakes. They would flick their tongues at me but they won't bite. It frightens me every time."

Jenson looked at Baby Robbie. "I didn't expect you to be so timid."

Baby Robbie smiled a little embarrassedly as he said," It's not that I'm timid. It's just that I've been afraid of snakes since I was a kid."

Although Jenson had a cool temper, he cared a lot for his younger brother. He suggested, "In that case, don't keep the seal with you the entire day. The python carved on the seal is too vivid and lifelike. Of course, it'll haunt your dreams if you look at it every day."

Baby Robbie took out the seal and said, "Jens, I don't know why but this python seems familiar. Do you think it's weird?"

Jenson's eyes were wide open...

Baby Robbie suddenly recalled something and said excitedly, "Jens, I'll go with you the next time you go t o investigate Madam Nephele."

Jens said, "I'm planning to go tonight."

"So soon?"

"If Madam Nephele saw me last night, she would think that she had scared me off and I wouldn't dare to investigate her again for a short while. So, tonight is the perfect timing for a surprise visit..."
