Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 659

"You are..." When she caught sight of the girl, Marcia immediately recognized her. The girl was named Randi, the maid of Lena. Randi always followed Lena with unparalleled loyalty.

"Her Royal Highness has ordered me to come immediately. She wanted to invite you to the Witch Palace and take a seat there. With the grace of Her Royal Highness, please follow me, General Marcia," said Randi as she bowed towards Marcia. Randi's tone was very respectful when she mentioned Her Royal Highness.

"By the way, it is already one year since the last time I saw Her Royal Highness. It was a very kind invitation from her. If I don't go with you, it would not only disappoint you but Her Royal Highness as well." With a faint smile, Marcia nodded. The two of them then left together. As they walked through the buildings, Marcia tried to guess why Lena wanted to see her.

When Alston was walking out of the Grand Holy Hall, he saw that Marcia was leaving with Randi. He immediately guessed that Marcia was going to see Lena. A displeased expression suddenly painted his face. With a frown, he confusedly muttered, "I don't understand. Why would Lena want to see Marcia?"

All of a sudden, a figure appeared in front of Alston. A respectful look was seen on the figure's face as it went down on one knee.

"Why did you come?" asked Alston with haste. He immediately recognized that the person who just appeared before him was the one who served Priest Dean.

"Your Royal Highness, Priest Dean asks you to go to the Mourning Temple as soon as possible." Almost as fast as it appeared, the figure had already left after it had said the message.

Alston glanced as the figures of Randi and Marcia grew smaller to the distance. Afterward, he then headed to the Mourning Temple located in the southeast of the Palace City.

The Mourning Temple was usually used by Priest Dean to refine elixirs. Additionally, it was also used to hold some mourning ceremonies. On one hand, it looked like a huge pharmacy; on the other hand, since it seemed to be a place for Priest Dean to perform magic arts, anyone who would step inside it would feel how gloomy and enigmatic the place was.

The moment Alston entered the Mourning Temple, he saw another figure. It was Priest Dean who was walking back and forth with a worried look on his face.

"Priest Dean, what's going on?" Alston said arrogantly. A rather boastful character, he sat on a chair next to him. He was the eldest son of the king, so he had the right to be very arrogant. Nonetheless, Priest Dean was already accustomed to his proud manner, so he nodded and started to talk.

"We might be in trouble, Your Royal Highness," said the priest with a serious and grim expression.

However, Alston maintained his pompous expression. Not a single frown appeared on his face despite the rather bad news. He just asked with a callous tone, "What kind of trouble can make our priest have such a serious look?" A calm voice accompanied Alston's query. He thought the Priest Dean was simply overwhelmed and had exaggerated the problem.

"I had just received some messages from the Gehenna Border. According to the investigation and all kinds of evidence we found, coupled with a portrait sent by my people, it is very likely that Rocky is..." Suddenly, the priest's face changed as he mentioned Rocky. A hesitant look had enveloped his formerly serious expression.

"What is it?" When he heard Rocky's name, Alston immediately had a bad feeling about the news.

"Maybe Rocky is Basil," said Priest Dean as his body couldn't help but shiver.

"What? Are you sure?" Immediately, Alston's eyes were widened. The unexpected remark from the priest made him stand up from his seat as if he had suddenly suffered a great blow.

"According to our intelligence, last time, the Timber Deity Empire pretended to make peace with the Crimson Dragon Army. However, it was just a plot to gain time in order to carry their plan. They almost killed Rocky at that time. However, his spiritual power suddenly went ballistic and wreaked havoc on his attackers. The enraged spiritual power badly injured a master at the Supernal Stage. Don't you think it is very similar to what happened in the Witch Palace? At that time, Rocky's spiritual power had also gone ballistic and made his enemies suffer a great loss. Additionally, Rocky was from the northwest military camp. What's more, the portrait of Basil looked a lot like Rocky! You may say that those are mere coincidence. However, I cannot dismiss it as mere coincidences when so many of it come together. All the information we got indicates that Rocky is Basil, Your Royal Highness!" If Priest Dean wasn't very sure, he didn't dare to say such a thing to Alston.

"If Rocky is Basil, then doesn't that mean that he is the son-in-law of Lance?" As he thought of this, Alston's face darkened. Uneasiness had crept ever deeper to his heart. A strong sense of jealousy immediately flashed in his eyes. 'How can Rocky have all the advantages and power I want to gain?' thought Alston with a grim expression.
