Chapter 58: Costs and benefits

"Never heard of it."

"Same. It doesn't ring a bell at all."

Those were the two responses of Valentina and Lilli when asked if they recognised the mystery name of Nyx. The Commander not knowing was one thing, but having the Archduchess who knows plenty of secret information still unaware meant that this name was either a total unknown or was an intensely guarded secret.

The fact that such a thing was found to be part of Dahlia's named spells immediately made everyone even more interested though. Valentina was especially weary. Once the girl reached 50% bloodline purity, it would be increasingly difficult to purify her blood further. The treasures needed would need to be better and better suited to her bloodline and if they didn't get a lead on her heritage soon then her bloodline purity would also plateau.
