The underworld queen come back and slays novel Chapter 412

Chapter 412 You’re As Clueless As Ever

“It was Uncle Hiemaly,” said Benedict.

“Uncle Hiemaly?” The two words left Rupert completely dumbfounded.

He had once heard that the head of the Hiemal Court was named Hiemaly, and the boy just called Hiemaly his uncle.

That could only mean the boy was Hiemaly’s nephew.

And this child had come with the president of the Star God Association.

Even without thinking, Rupert could tell that the Star God Association’s president had a connection with Hiemaly. Thinking about how he had just tried to use the president to go after Hiemaly, Rupert instantly broke into a cold sweat. But before he could dwell further on it, Saxon asked, “Wait. Are you saying he was hurt by Hiernaly?” His voice was tinged with surprise.

Benedict shot him a look that practically screamed, “Seriously?”

From the size and depth of the wound to the damage on Lola’s skin, he had already figured out that the weapon used looked a lot like Hiemaly’s serpentine dart.

After questioning the steward and catching the evasive look in his expression, Benedict was almost certain that the one who injured Lola was none other than Hiemaly.

But his smart and sharp Uncle Saxon, whom everyone praised, couldn’t figure it out.

When Benedict thought about how Saxon always looked kind of dim in front of him, he supposed that it made sense. Seeing that little look from Benedict, Saxon could only feel once again that his intelligence had been silently judged.

But since he had been judged so many times before, one more time didn’t really matter.

Still, he couldn’t help but imagine if he finally found Raven one day, and when she met that sharp–tongued, arrogant troublemaker, he was certain she wouldn’t have the slightest patience for him.

Saxon thought maybe Raven would dump the little rascal and shower her love on them instead.

He pictured Benedict being left behind, pitifully clinging to his pants and begging for help to plead with Raven on his behalf. For a second, Saxon felt an immense joy surging within him.

But before Saxon could fully indulge in his fantasy, a crisp, childish voice rang in his ear that made his heart skip a beat.” Uncle Saxon, what are you thinking about?”

Saxon jolted like he’d been zapped. He instinctively shook his head and said, “N–nothing.”

Benedict glanced at him slightly and said flatly, “Let’s go.”

He was sure that it was Hiemaly’s weapon, but the old man claimed it was a very young woman who had hurt the lady. Before coming to the palace, he had already guessed that Hiemaly had found Raven.

So he was at least quite sure the young woman Rupert mentioned was Raven.

The thought of him finally seeing his mother made it impossible to hide the flicker of anticipation on his usually cold face. Saxon instinctively wanted to ask where they were going, but remembering Hiemaly was the one who hurt Lola, he shut up immediately, not wanting to give his nephew another reason to call him stupid.

He could more or less guess the child was going to find Hiemaly, but he still didn’t understand why.

Saxon pondered, ‘It may be a bit narcissistic to think this way, but little boss certainly finds me, who’s kind and handsome, more likable than that emotionless statue Hiemaly!‘

Saxon was certain there was no way the boy wanted to find Hiemaly just to catch up and chat.
