Kapitel 986: The Reason

Darwel's breath quickened. Unlike the guards, she could afford to show cracks in her confidence.

What she had seen was absolutely mortifying.

A flame had devoured one of her mother's most trusted guards, a powerful one at that, but she still remained standing, her body complete – no parts of her charred or singed – and yet she didn't move. She simply kept staring ahead as she had been before when her loyalty to the Queen possessed her to go against the Ode.

Being unable to see her face – as Darwel saw – raised the eerie tone by several degrees.

There was a cold silence.
