Lady Cyan couldn’t believe what she was seeing. Not even her father could do this, forget about her younger brother. What was the deal with this runt?
She watched everything and the King could feel the tension roll off of her, as he glanced at his mistress. "Do you have any idea why she can do that?"
"No,’’ Lady Cyan replied curtly. She balled her fists, but her expression remained serene.
"So, what is the meaning of this?" King Aeon asked in a low voice until only the two of them could hear him. freewёbnoνel.com
However, Lady Cyan didn’t answer him immediately. She contemplated the situation and watched how all the people were flabbergasted. What Iris had done blew their minds.
"Ask him how to find the true perpetrator," Lady Cyan said to the King. She was still clueless about the lycan or how Princess Osana got cursed, but this alpha from the Howling Wolf pack had a way to figure it all out? She wanted to see what he could do.
"It’s so admirable for the Luna of the Howling Wolf pack to have such ability, but how do plan to find the perpetrator with that?" The King then added, "Will she be able to sniff the owner of the black magic stone? Even so, the owner had died. You have killed her and the only clue is gone!"
Hearing that, Cane scoffed. "My King, I have not yet said anything, but you are already drawing conclusions. I am sure it’s because you are very concerned about your son, the fourth prince, who had gone missing for days, or else, it would look like you want to put the blame on me and end this newly found pointer."
King Aeon’s face turned red because of the blatant disrespect that Cane showed him in front of everyone. But, it was actually him who had offended the Alpha first by insinuating his mate was a dog who could sniff around for the black magic stones.
However, before the King could lash out and force him into a difficult position, Cane immediately changed the topic smoothly to highlight the importance of this meeting and directed all the people’s attention toward the topic he wanted them to pay close attention to.
"If my mate can pinpoint the right spot of the shards of a black magic stone embedded in my flesh, it will not be hard for her to look for it somewhere else. Why don’t we go to the East Palace and see whether the same black magic stone was there or not."
East Palace was the place where Princess Osana stayed and no one dared to come closer to the palace, since they were afraid the curse would affect them as well.
"Why should we go there? What is the point if we found the black magic stone there? It will not help reveal the true perpetrator!" This time, it was Alan’s advisor, who spoke.
Apparently, the Crown Prince finally learned from his mistake and started to use his brain a little bit as he used his advisor to voice out his grievances now.
"Every act of black magic leaves traces, that’s the principle of using black magic. The perpetrator must have something from the victim and the victim must have been implanted with something that contains black magic without them knowing it. In Princess Osana’s case, I believe we will find something in her palace that was suffused with black magic for her to suffer from the curse." Cane looked at the head of the royal sorcerers. "Correct me if I am wrong, magic is not my forte."
"I don’t think so," Lady Cyan spoke for the first time, her voice rang throughout the main hall, it was calm and dignified. "From the way you spoke, it seems like you have learned about magic for quite some time."
