บท 175: THE INVESTIGATION

"The report says Felix created the fake death of the blessed child."

"Fake death?!" Veronica touched her chest. "But I'm alive and healthy."

Catherine caught on quickly, "Did someone else die in order to cover for Ver?"

"Who died?" Veronica was shocked.

"No one particularly died. Felix used a magic spell on a dead body and left it in the woods. The animals ate the body and made it unrecognizable. Later, it was found by people. Lord Alexander came and investigated it. The Head Priest seemed to recognize the body and declared that it was the blessed child who grew up in the temple."

Veronica was confused. "The Head Priest?"

Arthur added, "The King and Lord Alexander didn't seem to believe him. So, they also brought a nun named Sister Josephine to testify. The body was already hideous at that point. It was rotting too. That nun fainted the moment she saw the dead body. After waking up, she confirmed that it was the blessed child."
