The Medallion novel Chapter 1896

"If I am assessing it correctly, your injuries are caused by the erosion of the evil spirit. Therefore, as long as we can expel the evil spirit out of your body, you will start to recover." Rocky instantly gave his diagnosis.

At the same time, Zain was shocked to his core to hear this. It was Rocky's first time seeing him after he got the mortifying injuries, but the young man was able to tell the root of the problem in an instant. According to the elders, his wounds were indeed caused by the evil spirit invasion. Since he came back from the Ghostly Demon Land, he tried every possible remedy and even had a grand elder help him. However, all of their efforts were in vain.

"Well, I expect that you are doubting my abilities. So, why don't I expel some of the evil spirit out of your body first? Then, see for yourself if you will feel any change. Please sit down so that I can begin the process," Rocky said as he approached the prince.

Then, Zain sat down while Rocky stood behind him. Afterward, Rocky immediately activated his holy power and injected it through the prince's back.

Immediately after, Rocky's holy power collided with the evil spirit inside Zain's body.

While this chaotic clash of power happened within Zain, his face turned ghastly pale from extreme pain.

"The process is indeed horrible, but please endure it for as long as you can," Rocky instantly reminded.

Since the prince was prideful, he did not even utter a word while experiencing the excruciating pain.

After the fierce fight inside Zain's body, part of the evil spirit was successfully driven out.

At the same time, the prince spat out a few mouthfuls of black blood, indicating that the process had been successful.

"Well, that is it for today, Your Royal Highness." Rocky halted the procedure after his first try.

"Why? Is it enough?" Zain glanced at Rocky, slightly panting from fatigue.

"I'm afraid your body won't be able to take any more if we continued. Besides, you cannot expect all your injuries to heal all at once. It will be a delicate process," Rocky informed in a serious tone.

"Does this mean that you really are going to betray Layla?" Zain asked out of nowhere. Even after Vivian told him about the deal, he still could not believe Rocky's intention.

"That is my original plan, but we'll talk more about it once your body recovers. After all, I will have to reconsider my option if you cannot fully recover from this," Rocky said in a rather cold voice.

Of course, Zain knew what he meant. He just found Rocky's attitude very confusing. It was like the young man was always wearing a mask, and no one could really determine what he was thinking.

However, if there was one thing that he was sure of, it was that he could no longer underestimate Rocky.

On the other hand, Rocky was doing his best to make Zain take the bait. It was one of the most critical factors that would put his plan into motion.

Aside from that, Rocky also entrusted Adrian with a crucial task. If he could successfully trick Zain, then everything would fall into place.

Then, the following day, a Spiritual Emperor suddenly entered Zain's room and reported, "Your Royal Highness, pardon me for disturbing your rest. Leader Adrian is here, and he demands to see you."

"Adrian? All right. Let him in," Zain ordered, wondering what brought him to his palace.

Not long after, Adrian appeared before the prince. However, it seemed that he was badly beaten and bruised all over, and his face looked very pale. At the same time, one of his arms was covered in bandages and was hanging in front of his chest. At a glance, he was in a pretty embarrassing state.

"Leader Adrian, what happened to you? Who did this?" Zain almost exclaimed upon seeing him.

"Your Royal Highness, I know that this is a bit embarrassing, but please uphold justice for me!" Adrian pleaded, bowing to the prince without hesitation.

"Tell me what happened first," Zain demanded as his eyes grew cold.

"This was done by Prince Enoch's troops. Since you are seriously injured, he took this opportunity to invade my fief's territory. A few days ago, I personally led my army to expel them, but unfortunately, we were ambushed," Adrian recounted, almost sobbing in humiliation.

"What? Why haven't I heard anything about it?"

"The first time they appeared to attack us, I did not report it to you since I know that you are still trying to recover. However, this time, the Genie Fief really suffered a lot, so I had no choice but to ask for your help," Adrian professed as if he was a helpless old man.

"How many soldiers did Enoch send to deal with your army?"

"At least fifty thousand..."
