Chapter 64 Jadeite's Visit
- It, then, dawned on Emery. The royal concubine’s words made her realize that this was staged by Lady Hazel herself. She purposely did all of these for the king to get mad at her. She scoffed because it was only then that she finally came to see the real intention of the royal concubine. The queen, then, started to question all her previous actions of showing mercy towards her were just in vain. Had she been played by the royal concubine ever since then? What a fool she was.
- Nevertheless, she was being cornered, making her feel that there was no single person in that place would take her side, especially that Lila left the palace. Should she just scare them away? But doing such would mean breaking one of the rules of the Arcana—using one’s skills against people of no ability to fight back is prohibited unless it threatens one’s life. If she ever break one rule, the Arcana would cut her off from the organization and that was something Emery never considered of doing.
- She thought that she finally got the trust of the king after their alliance a few days ago. But it seemed like it was only her thinking that way. And having such a thought was a wrong move. Staring back at him, she was only receiving a scornful gaze.
