Chapter 207: Chapter 207: Twin Telepathy, the Eldest Is in Danger!

Hearing the Fire Phoenix Family Master’s words, Kosa’s eyes lit up with excitement.

Ophelia had been camped outside the Holy Capital for five consecutive days, yet she hadn’t seen a single member of the Fire Phoenix Clan appear. Seeing that the prey they had brought along was nearly depleted, she dispatched fifty males to hunt near the Holy Capital.

However, by nightfall, the males returned without a single catch.

Laxus wore a grave expression. "Ophelia, we couldn’t find any prey in the nearby forests. It’s so strange. Do the people of the Holy Capital not need to eat?"

"How is that possible? They would have starved to death long ago if they didn’t eat," Ophelia said, looking at Klein with equal confusion.

Klein shook his head. "I’ve only come to the Holy Capital to attend a few banquets, and I never wandered around freely, so I’m not entirely sure where they source their prey."

Guilt flashed across Klein’s face, but Ophelia quickly comforted him. "It’s fine. I’ll figure out a way to solve the food problem."

At dusk, Ophelia led Klein into the forest.

Klein followed behind her, holding a torch. Seeing her venture deeper and deeper, he couldn’t help but feel worried. "Ophelia, it’s too dark over there. Where exactly are you going?"

Ophelia stopped, glanced around, and then grabbed Klein’s hand. Before Klein could say anything, his vision blurred. When he opened his eyes again, the scenery before him had completely changed.

"Where is this?"

PATTER PATTER. A flurry of chaotic footsteps echoed out.

Klein immediately stepped in front of Ophelia to shield her, scanning their surroundings with vigilance. Following the sound, he saw two petite figures running out of a large room.

"Mother, Mother! You’re finally here."

"Mother. Uncle Klein," Wendy said sweetly, hugging Klein’s leg.

Klein was a bit surprised to see the two of them, but he still bent down and picked Wendy up.

"Haven’t you always been curious about how I grow my crops?" Ophelia asked. "This is the secret to my crop yields. Even the pigs and sheep raised by the Fuzu Tribe came from here."

Ophelia gave Klein a brief introduction to her farming space.

Klein was absolutely astounded. "Is this really how you do it?"

He looked around, taking in the sight of the lush, thriving crops in the fields. It was a delightful scene. Then he noticed the adjacent livestock pasture, which had already expanded to over a thousand square feet. It housed dozens of pigs, every single one plump and robust, making one’s mouth water just looking at them.

"Yes, so you don’t need to worry about food for our clansmen. My warehouse has enough to feed them for several months."

Ever since Ophelia realized that she might one day go to war with the Fire Phoenix Clan or even the Holy Capital, she had started stockpiling grains and meat early on. As of now, the warehouse held no less than five thousand prey animals and tons of grain, more than enough to sustain the clan members.

Seeing the fully stocked warehouse, Klein’s worries gradually dissipated, replaced by profound awe at this miraculous farming space.

"Mother, do you have any news about Kohen?"

When Ophelia had first brought Wendy and Dan’er into the space, she had already told them about Kohen being captured and warned them that they might have to stay in here for a long time. This time, Wendy and Dan’er didn’t throw a fuss; instead, they obediently stayed put. They even managed their daily meals and drinks from the warehouse, eliminating the need for Ophelia to enter the space just to deliver food.

"Not yet, but I’ll bring Kohen back very soon. Don’t worry. Just stay in the space like good children, alright?"

"Okay." Wendy flashed a sweet smile.

Ophelia stroked her head affectionately. Afterward, she took Klein on a tour of the farming space, allowing him to gradually adapt to its miraculous nature.

Just as they were about to leave, Dan’er discreetly tugged on Ophelia’s sleeve.

"What’s wrong, Dan’er?" Ophelia bent down to look at him.

Dan’er stole a glance at his younger sister, Wendy. Ophelia followed his gaze and saw Wendy affectionately clinging to Klein.

"Come with me." Ophelia took Dan’er’s hand and led him off to the side. "What is it?"

Dan’er’s little face scrunched up. "Mother, Kohen is hurt."

"Kohen is hurt? How do you know?" Upon hearing this, Ophelia’s heart tensed.

"Kohen and I have a connection. The two of us can sense each other’s feelings and moods.

"Since he got hurt, I can feel it. I can feel his mood, too."

Ophelia frowned. Was this the telepathic bond between twins?

"What about Wendy? Can she feel it?" She looked over at Wendy, who was happily giggling and playing with Klein.

Dan’er furrowed his brows in brief thought. "She probably can’t."

Ophelia nodded. Looking at Wendy’s carefree demeanor, she certainly didn’t seem to know about Kohen’s injury.

"Mother, you have to rescue Kohen quickly. I feel like the place he’s in is very dangerous."

"Alright, I know."

Ophelia and Klein exited the farming space, bringing two hundred prey animals with them.

"In a little while, go call Laxus over to move the prey. Just tell him that Zerev prepared it," she instructed. Zerev was the only one who could take the credit—and the blame—for this.

"Okay. Let me walk you back first." Klein wasn’t comfortable leaving Ophelia alone out here.

Figuring that it was only a ten-minute walk and that they wouldn’t be so unlucky as to have the prey stolen in that short timeframe, Ophelia didn’t argue. She followed Klein back to the camp.

On the way back, Ophelia brought up what Dan’er had said about Kohen being injured.

"Klein, I’m a bit worried about Kohen.

"I want to find a chance to sneak into the Holy Capital tomorrow to see if I can rescue him."

"Let me go in instead. It’d be too dangerous if a little female like you got discovered," Klein said, disapproving of Ophelia taking such a risk.

"It’s better if I go. With the System Space, no one will spot me," Ophelia insisted.

"I’ll go with you." Klein squeezed her hand, his eyes filled with concern.

Ophelia shook her head. "No need. You don’t belong to the space, so you can’t stay in the System Space for long."

"I’m not comfortable letting you go alone."

Ophelia smiled. "Don’t worry. Even if I’m discovered, all I have to do is hide inside the System Space, and no one will be able to catch me."

She had absolute confidence in her System Space.

"Alright then. If possible, seek out Zerev. It’ll be much safer with his help."

"Okay, I will."

As they talked, they arrived back at the camp. Klein called Laxus over and led a team of males into the forest to retrieve the prey. Thanks to the sudden appearance of food and Klein’s persuasive explanations, the previously panicked clansmen were quickly placated.

Early the next morning, as soon as the Holy Capital’s gates opened and the crowd of travelers began to bustle, Klein and Laxus intentionally caused a commotion to draw the attention of the male guards.

This allowed Ophelia to smoothly slip into the Holy Capital.

In a secluded corner of the Holy Capital, Ophelia glanced around to ensure no one was watching before secretly entering her space. As soon as she stepped inside, Wendy and Dan’er, hearing the noise, hurried over to greet her.

Ophelia patted Dan’er’s head. "Dan’er, can you sense Kohen’s location?"

"If he’s close enough, I can. If he’s too far away, I can’t."

"Alright, then I’ll take you outside with me. You can help me search for him, okay?"

Hearing that they could go outside, Wendy was immediately tempted. "Mother, I want to go out too."

For once, Ophelia rejected her request. "It’s dangerous outside. I’m only bringing Dan’er to find Kohen. Be a good girl and stay in the space, alright?"

Realizing that Ophelia and Dan’er had important business to take care of, Wendy didn’t throw a tantrum. She obediently nodded.

"Okay, Mother. I understand."
