Chapter 201 [Bonus ] The Truth About Miller
A tiny rat scurried through the castle, unnoticed by all. Those who did see it quickly ran away in fear.
"A rat!"
No one would have thought that such a small creature could be capable of anything, but Damian knew better. He had been planning this for weeks, and now his plan was finally coming together.
He needed to find the key to the cell where he had been imprisoned. He knew that the guards had the key, but he didn't know which one.
He remembered the night he was captured. He had been taken by surprise by Miller and his guards. He had barely had time to react before he was knocked unconscious.
When he woke up, he was in a cell. He had been there for weeks, and he was starting to lose hope. But then he remembered something. He remembered the guard who had opened his cell door.
Damian had never seen the guard before. He didn't know his name, but he knew that he was the one who had the key.
Damian knew that the guard would be in the restricted area of the castle. That was where Miller and his family lived.
The restricted area was heavily guarded, but Damian knew that he could get in. He had a tiny rat body, and he could fit into any gap.
He swam through the drain in Miller's personal pool. He held his breath as he swam, and he opened the drain on the other side. He looked out into the pool, and he was relieved to see that no one was there.
He climbed out of the pool and ran to a nearby bush. He hid in the bush, and he waited for the guard to show up.
After two hours, the guard finally appeared. He walked over to the pool, and he started to take off his clothes.
Damian knew that this was his chance. He ran out of the bush and climbed up the stairs to the guard's room.
The room was empty, and it was very clean. The servants had done a good job, and the room was very organized.

Damian knew that the key would be in the office area. He went to the desk and looked through the papers.
He found the key in a fake drawer. It was hidden underneath a button. Damian pushed the button, and the drawer opened. The key was inside.
Damian took the key and bit it. He wanted to make sure that he didn't lose it. He then closed the drawer and left the room.
He waited for a while near the pool for the guard to get dressed. When the guard was finally gone, Damian used the drain to return to the main part of the castle.
He now had the key to his cell. He could finally escape.
Everything went smoothly, and after thirty minutes, a tiny rat passed through the cell's drain. Natasha was lying on the ground in the other side of the cell, and could not help but warn Damian about the rat.
"Look out for the rat. It can get you sick," Natasha said.
Damian patted the rat on the head, grabbing the key from its mouth.
"Wait, what's that? Don't tell me…"
Natasha had not seen the key at first, but noticed it when Damian got it. Many thoughts crossed her mind, but most should not be possible.
"How? How did that rat bring us the key?" Natasha said.
Damian got close to her, using his finger to make a sign, "Shh, don't say it aloud. We have to leave this place without anyone noticing it!"
She realized her mistake and kept quiet. There were other prisoners inside the nearby cells, so speaking those things aloud was not a good thing.
Deep down, Natasha wanted to ask Damian how he did that, but restrained herself. They had to flee first, and they could speak about that later.
"But what should we do? Where should we go after leaving?" Natasha asked.
"You have to leave because they know you, but I can hide inside the castle. I have my ways. Can you find a way out of this place?" Damian asked.
"You will stay here? Can you take care of someone for me?" Natasha said.
"Who?"
"M-My sister. She is inside one of the locked rooms. She's sick, and no one knows about her but me! Miller is hiring guards to kill them after a while, and use their life essence for dark magic. He tried doing the same with my sister, and that's why she is sick."
That was not what Damian expected, and the truth shocked him!
"What? Miller is doing black magic?"
"Yes! He is doing some crazy things inside this place… Please, help my sister! I hid the keys to enter beneath a rock near the guard's barracks…"
"I will, don't you worry. But if I leave this castle with your sister, where can we meet you?"
"Leave with my sister? That would only be possible if you somehow cure her… I-I would do anything for you if you do that! As for the place to meet, just go north up to the sea. There's a small city near the ocean, and that's where I will be."
"Alright."
Natasha explained many things as fast as she could, and then she left, using a secret tunnel she had found a long time ago. As for Damian, he still had a mission, and now, his identity changed once again!
With the help of his invisibility cloak, Damian walked through the castle, and kidnapped a servant, one that took care of Miller's personal area.
'I can get close to Miller now... This is the perfect chance!'
Damian had to use a new identity after being arrested, and now that Natasha fled, they would think he fled with her! That would make his new identity a complete secret, but he had to act fast! Damian did not forget about the reason he went to that castle in the first place.
'Miller must die!'
