章節 120: Under A Spell

"How did they die?" Arabella had to know or else she wouldn't know what to say to Nadia.

"Starvation and torture, Your Majesty."

Arabella was wide-eyed at this. Not only were they staved, but they were also tortured. Dempsey clearly did it out of hatred and grudges.

"Was the death of his first wife and first son investigated?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. To prevent further conflict and misunderstanding, investigators and knights from Dempsey were allowed in Mt. Esme to ensure that the mother and son were indeed attacked by beasts."

They ruled out that the Safiro Chief's and warriors' claims were true. The deaths of the mother and son were indeed due to beasts.

However, Count Dempsey did not believe them and said that they were probably threatened by Safiro when they went into Mt. Esme.

"According to the elders, Count Dempsey raised the issue and requested investigators and knights from the capital of the then Arno Kingdom."
