"The Artifact that you showed to me in the meeting,
That was what she used to run away that day."
Oberon glanced at Felix and spoke.
Hearing those words, Felix's expression changed.
'Make sure you show it to him,'
He remember how that Eaglekin gave him the Artifact, nagging him to show it to Oberon, he found it strange that time but when he saw Oberon's reaction after he did show that Artifact to him, he understood why he said that.
Oberon lost his calm when he saw that artifact, Felix was shocked that he was showing such a big reaction, but at the same time, he also wondered how that Eaglekin knew about it…
But…
If Oberon's story is true then…
Then…
Felix lowered his head again.
There were too many things going on in his mind right now.
Rune had a strange expression on her face as well.
She understood now...
The reason her father was acting like that all those years ago, it wasn't because of 'mother's death', it was before Ivy died...
However, Rune was still not sure.
Her father's story made sense but there were no proofs to back it up, what if her mother actually did not betray him? What if the story was different and her father was just twisting the facts and presenting the story as he wants?
Rune knows it well, her father was perfectly capable of doing that.
After their 'mother's death', she had seen her father turn into a cold and ruthless man. Actually, even before that, Oberon was a calculative man.
Yes, right now, Rune was doubting every single aspect of her life.
And how could she not?
Everything happening around her was just too much for her.
First her brother, then her husband, then her father, and now her 'dead' mother, every person around her seemed fake and seems to have a plan of their own.
It was just too confusing.
Just what was happening in her family?
"I had my doubts when I checked your storage ring, but to think that woman has actually contacted you."
Suddenly, Oberon sighed as he glanced at Felix.
"His storage ring?"
Rune frowned.
"Blackheart."
Oberon replied.
"It was inside his storage ring."
Rune's expression changed.
She widened her eyes as she turned towards Felix, Felix just avoided her eyes. Rune's realized it, when she took Felix's ring, her mind was focused on the contract, so she must have missed it, but to think Felix would actually be carrying Blackheart…
"Becoming the successor, using the chance to use Blackheart when the Successor and City Lord have a meal alone according to the City Tradition.
Sounds just like something that woman would come up with."
Oberon spoke and as he did, Felix glanced at him with a shocked look on his face.
"What? Did you really think it was that grand of a plan? She tried to do the same thing before. To think she still hasn't learned. How do you even plan to kill me after I am poisoned? You think you alone would be enough to kill me once I am poisoned?"
Oberon questioned, then, however, he narrowed his eyes.
"Or maybe…
Your mother did learn something from the past and have something else up your sleeves?"
He then looked into Felix's eyes and,
"Does she have something else prepared, Felix?"
"You think I will tell you?" Felix replied as he looked into Oberon's eyes.
"Feli-"
