The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 969

Chapter 969: THE FINAL BATTLE (35)

Elder Rose looked at Iris. She was not sure what to feel about her because this woman was supposed to be her lost granddaughter and now, she just gave birth and was having twins.

She wanted to confirm something, a lot of questions was in her mind and their tensed conversation during the war couldn’t yield anything.

She had tried to think of a way of how to get closer to her, but the protection around the luna was insane. More so, she couldn’t have a talk with her without making the situation awkward.

On the other hand, Iris didn’t seem to care about Elder Rose, even though both of them knew they were related.

Just like usual. Iris had Cane sat next to her and her four protectors were behind her, Cedric included. Elder Xarex and Elder Dandolf stared daggers at the knight, while Cedric looked as calm as ever.

"There is nothing you could do to stop the poisonous miasma," Elder Dandolf said. He looked calm like usual, even though Rei was still missing, which put Iris on alert.

The elders had secured a ship to go back to Andelus continent, but their problem was with Abby, because she refused to go with them and chose to stay in this wretched continent. She must not think straight.

"Give me the air magic stone," Iris said, she didn’t want to have a small talk with them, neither she wanted to have a discussion, because she knew it would go nowhere. "I know you have the air magic stone."

Aliana had confirmed this, she saw a small pocket was being handed over in turn among the elders when they purified the poisonous miasma. Abby also had confirmed the same thing.

It was already weird enough for the elders to have the ability, but with the air magic stone, it was possible.

"The audacity!" Elder Xarex stood up, his face turned red. Iris didn’t even ask for the magic stone, but she demanded it. "How dare you demanded something that belonged to the Holy Kingdom?"

"Can you change the name? It irked my ear to hear you kept saying holy this, holy that. There is nothing holy about you and your nefarious kingdom," Lou said, irritated.

Iris immediately cut off Elder Xarex’s retort when she saw the old man was going to have a quarrel with Lou. "The air magic stone belonged to the Serafim. I don’t care, who you thought as the real Serafim between me and Abby, you can choose to whom you will hand the stone over between us."

The way Iris said it was almost akin to an announcement that Abby was part of them right now.

"This stone is not something trivial that we can hand over as we pleased!" Elder Xarex stood up, he slammed his hand on the table, fuming and this attitude was not welcomed by Cane and the other. "We have saved your people! Is this how you repaid us?!"

"We have provided a lot of things for you and your useless knights, not to mention you brought that nefarious Rei with you, oh, have I mentioned that you and your people, your Holy Kingdom, should be the one, who dealt with Decratic? But, instead we have to bear the brunt of it, we even killed him. How will you repay us?" Lou emphasized the word ’holy kingdom’ in a mocking tone.

Left it to the merchant to recount everything. If Elder Xarex was trying to be calculative, the merchant could teach him how to be a proper calculative person.
