Bab 723: ROYAL SCANDAL (18)

[THAT'S not Darkness.]

Aside from the shadows, Neoma noticed that the thing whirled around Regina Crowell's body wasn't Darkness. It felt more like Mana but, like, dead.

Huh?

Dead Mana?

Neoma's eyes opened wide. "Impure Mana…"

"I knew you'd recognize it right away, Princess Neoma," Regina Crowell said haughtily. "It's a present that we prepared for you."

The swirling Impure Mana– in liquid form– around Regina Crowell soon took the form of little blobs that looked like jellies.

[Tsk.]

Neoma could instantly tell what the wench was about to do. "If you drop those things, you're dead."

She could focus on Regina Crowell because her Papa Boss already took Callisto de Luca away from him.

Lewis and Vespera were still dealing with Calyx.

Nero was safe with Mama Boss, and so was Hanna with Dahlia and Duke Quinzel.

The others were also capable of protecting themselves.

[I'll deal with the Impure Mana then.]
