Chapitre 99: No questions.

[Nev POV]

I still had a million questions, but for now, I focused on the immediate concern.

"Did the other people notice I was cursed and that I'm weak?" I blurted out, worry gnawing at me. "I mean, it'd be a major pain if they knew. The churches could make me public villain number one! That, and things would just be annoying in the future."

Verona scoffed, a sound that somehow managed to be both elegant and dismissive. "Why should you care if they make you the villain? There was a time when I was the public enemy, a terror. And unlike those bullshit fantasy stories," she added, flexing "and at the end , I won."

Taking a deep breath, she continued, "Oh, and about you being cursed or weakened…You shouldn't worry about that.I made it look as if you were fine. That you had all your stars and didn't bear the stigma curse of the gods."
