Chapter 26: Unique Physique
As Lucy lost herself to fever, Carlos came back with a Jade box. Prince Jing opened it up to reveal a small stone shard. "Ask the Rimes Family if there to send a Light Caster to use the Truth Crystal on Lucy's servants" Bao Benin orders. "Yes, your highness" Carlos bows, and sees himself out. Bao Benin stares at the tiny glittering shard. He had sold his daughter, and various benefits just to use it once. His eyes were cold. "Everyone who has anything to do with plotting against my bloodline will die. Even if I have to burn down the palace" Killing intent flashed past his eyes.
He waited for an hour until a maid came to inform that a Lady Rimes had arrived. Bao Benin got up, going to greet her. No matter who it was, he must treat her with respect. It was a wonder that Prince Jing cared little about destroying his Imperial Father's Imperial Palace, but a random Caster from the Rimes Family made him respectful. Nothing could be said, but that a mother's influence was large.
"Prince Jing" A silver-haired Lady greeted, she looked to be in her late twenties. "Lady Rimes" He greets, accepting her slight bow without a hint of dissatisfaction. "My Third daughter was poisoned. I was hoping that you could use this Truth Crystal to find the culprit" Prince Jing says, calmly. Her eyes turn cold, her aura escaping into the surroundings. "Foolish, daring to harm a Rimes daughter," Lady Rimes says, coldly. "They must be thrown into the depths of Hades. How is little Lucy?" She asks concern concealing her aura, allowing the nearby collapsed maids, and guards a chance to breathe. "She's alive. Physician Liu says she was given Royal Foxglove and Frost poison." Prince Jing answers. Lady Rimes frowns. "If the poison isn't deeply set, I might be able to help drive it out" Lady Rimes offers. His eyes brighten. "Great. I'll take you to her" He says, leading her toward the Lily Courtyard.
Lady Rimes leans over the bed, injecting her Light essence into Lucy's body. "Her body is rejecting the poison," Lady Rimes says with astonishment. Lady Rimes observes as Light essence in the child's body burns away most of the poison, and shoving the remaining out through her pores. Lady Rimes allows Lucy's body to push out the poison, focusing on repairing the damage it had given her body. "Such a unique physique," Lady Rimes says, once Lucy was free of any poison, or damage.
She looks at Prince Jing. "Little Lucy has a poison-resistant physique. Her severe reaction was entirely due to the conflicting nature of Frost Poison, and Royal Foxglove poison. Even without my help, it won't have killed her. I just healed the damage the poison caused her body." Lady Rimes says, then pauses deciding not to mention the light essence in her body. It was best to keep it secret as long as possible. Dual Attributes would make this child a target.
"She should have a fever as a reaction to rejecting the poison, and might be weak for while." Lady Rimes says.
