The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 317

Chapter 317: THE EXTENT OF HER ABILITY

The stone let out a black wisp, the same wisp that she had seen exuding from Cane’s body. If the black wisp was dark magic, then why did it emanate from the stone when she touched it?

And as if answering the question, Haco squeaked to see that. "You purified the stone! You purified it of dark magic! How can you do that?!"

On the other hand, Cane didn’t expect something like this to happen either. He remembered the dark wisp that appeared after what Aria had done to him. She inflicted him with dark magic and that was how it started.

But then, Iris managed to get rid of the dark wisp only by her touch. Was that what happened? That was how it worked? She purified him?

"How can you purify it of dark magic?!" Haco grabbed Iris’ hand and looked at her closely, as she winced because he hurt her. "How can you do that? It’s impossible..." he mumbled to himself. "Who are you? There is no way a runt can use magic."

Iris was way more confused than the sorcerer, since she didn’t know how to answer the question.

"This didn’t make any sense at all..." Haco muttered to himself.

Cane stepped forward and swatted Haco’s hand away from Iris, her bruises had just healed, he didn’t want to see her wrist swollen again. "What do you mean she purified it?"

Haco was mumbling, talking to himself and then explained how magic of the magic users worked. There were three kinds of magic; normal magic performed by the magic users, it only required the magic stone as the fuel to back up their power; black magic by those magic users, who usually used sacrifices, aside from magic stones to get more powerful effect, and lastly, divine power, which only a Serafim could use, as they were born with it.

That was why what Iris did was unheard of. The dark spells could be neutralized by a sorcerer, if they were on the same level in terms of power, or a Serafim could veto it, but aside from using her divine powers, a ritual was necessary for the Serafim to be able to do that and not just by a single touch!

The dark magic stone that was planted on Cane, they didn’t know whether it was purified or not, since Iris was the one who took it out. They didn’t have a way to confirm it, because they didn’t have a sorcerer in the pack.

As for these dark magic stones, Haco used the death of Prince Vemion to create the dark magic.

"Try it again," Cane said, as he picked one of the stones from the table. He wanted to make sure what happened earlier was not a coincidence.

On the other hand, Haco took great pains to create those dark magic stones as per Cane’s request, but right now, he couldn’t care less about it either, since he wanted to know more about how Iris could do it.

Cane put the dark magic stone on his palm and brought it closer to Iris, so she could take it.

For a moment, Iris looked doubtful, but then she took the stone and the same thing happened. A dark wisp came out of the magic stone and Haco was dumbstruck.

"She really expelled the black magic..."

There was silence that ensued inside the room. On the table, there were eight more magic stones suffused with black magic, while the other two had been purified and couldn’t be used anymore. Finally, Cane broke the silence.

"How will you explain this?" Iris’ ability wouldn’t hinder his plan, he could swing his plan forward with this new finding, but it would be better if he knew more. The unknown could make him make the wrong move.
