Chapter 492 - 492 493 The Stolen Room
?Chapter 492: Chapter 493: The Stolen Room Chapter 492: Chapter 493: The Stolen Room With countless questions and conjectures in his heart, Duncan carefully secured the brass key close to his person, and Alice waited obediently by his side, her eyes shifting eagerly, like a child anticipating a secret.
“Do you feel any different now?” Duncan asked, gazing into Alice’s eyes.
“Any different?” Alice tilted her head, touching her back with her hand, and after a moment shook her head, “Just now, I felt a tickle where the keyhole is, but it’s gone now.”
Duncan frowned upon hearing this: “…That’s it? Just that?”
“That’s it,” Alice replied earnestly, then with a curious look, she added, “Should there be something else? You look so serious… Have you figured out the thing with the key?”
With his eyebrows deeply knitted, Duncan sat down on the bed opposite the doll after a moment’s hesitation, and, with utmost seriousness, began to speak, “You may have felt like only a moment passed, but I spent a long time in a peculiar place—an ancient and vast mansion, its name… ‘Alice’s Mansion’.”
The Gothic doll’s eyes widened incrementally, listening to the captain’s narrative with a mix of astonishment and confusion.
Duncan didn’t hide his experiences in Alice’s Mansion; he told the doll miss everything he saw and heard there, then mentioned what he witnessed in the Endless Sea, including the meeting with the Frost Queen, Lei Nora.
Of course, he knew that Alice might only understand a part, and even that part only vaguely, and that her memory of the conversation would be limited, but he still chose to tell it all.
Because it was something she deserved to know—not to conceal things from her on the premise that “she wouldn’t understand anyway.” That would be the bare minimum of respect.
