Chapitre 176: Ch. 176 Lord Cecillion's Intent

The crimson fox monarchs did not expect their master to attack at such a time. Aria was poisoned, and although the fox bead could slow down the poison's flow, the girl's life was even more dangerous when the soul-sucking bat attacked her.

They couldn't comprehend why the master, who treasures his daughter so much that he was willing to sleep for a dozen years to seal Aria's dark force, wanted her life at this time.

The king and queen fell silent, not knowing what to do. They knew their master hoped to hand over Aria without a fight. Seeing that this bat only attacked Aria meant the lord was willing to let Lyod and the others go.

But… the queen didn't want to give up Aria. She was the one who watched the child's growth from childhood to adulthood, and she was also the one who maintained the balance between the dark and light sides of Aria.
