Chapter 531 WHAT TO DO
"I will ask the physicians to keep her alive any way possible," Urulas said.
While they were discussing the matter, one of Urulas\' men who was guarding Veronica came to the throne room. He whispered something to Urulas.
"What\'s wrong?" King Erestor Culnámo inquired.
"My King, the physicians came up with the reason behind Veronica\'s health deterioration," Urulas announced.
"Go and find out," King Erestor Culnámo ordered.
"As you wish, My King."
Urulas rushed once again to Veronica\'s house. He noticed the physicians both had deep frowns.
"Why is she having these symptoms?" Urulas asked.
The old physician said, "It\'s a bit complicated. Listen well, this young lady is the descendent of the Great Dragon because she has the dragon\'s blood in her veins. "Her greatest enemy is the basilisk and if its blood gets mixed with her dragon blood, it will cause her so much pain that she will be on the verge of death."
After hearing the explanation, Urulas was stunned. His head instantly became clearer.
He muttered, "Does that mean…"
"I believe you are thinking the same thing as I am thinking. Someone has made her drink basilisk\'s blood," the old physician confirmed.
\'That can\'t be,\' Urulas thought. \'There is no way she will let Aeolus force her to drink his blood. He must have made her lower her guard… kiss!!\'
The moment he thought of that conclusion, his blood boiled in anger. He was fuming. Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
\'He must have kissed her and blood spilled from his mouth and she accidentally drank it. She must have bitten his lips.\'
"We must find him soon," he murmured.
If they couldn\'t find a cure soon, Veronica could die at any moment. If that happened, what would they do?
He looked at the physicians and inquired, "Since you know the reason, do you know how to cure her?"
"Hmm… to my knowledge, there has never been any incident when dragoon and basilisk blood have been mixed," the old physician said.
Urulas and the rest of the elves were disappointed. If they couldn\'t find a cure soon, Veronica could die at any moment. If that happened, what would they do?
After a heavy silence, the Royal Physician opened his mouth.
He said, "I\'ve once heard that human magicians once experimented on a blessed child with basilisk\'s blood."
The old physician and the rest of the elves were astonished by the story.
"Where on earth did you hear that rumor?" the old physician was baffled.
The Royal Physician said, "To study more about human medicines, I have gone to the Human Realm before. I went to a country where magicians are popular. I\'ve heard the rumor there."
"What was the experiment about?" Urulas pressed.
The Royal Physician said, "I can\'t remember properly. I didn\'t hear much. I think it was a failed experiment. It happened thousands of years ago. Once a blessed child was captured by the humans and that\'s when the tragedy started. If it wasn\'t for that, the blessed children wouldn\'t have been hidden from the humans."
Urulas began to sweat. He excused himself from them and went to his place.
Ovior was restlessly perambulating in the house. The moment Urulas entered, he asked, "What happened to Veronica? Why did you take so much time to come here?"
Urulas shortly told him everything. The time was limited for Veronica.
"That bastard! If I get my hands on him…" Ovior clenched his fist.
"You can\'t do anything to him since he is the Crown Prince," Urulas told him. "However, it will be a great help if you can tell me about an experiment that was done to the blessed child thousands of years ago with basilisk\'s blood."
Ovior closed his eyes, trying to remember. "There was a story about it. It was an experiment that was hidden by the top-class wizards since it was a top-secret experiment. However, it has indeed happened. Arthur and I found the papers for the experiment in the forbidden book." When they were teenagers, they sneaked inside the library at night and found forbidden books. They used to read those books the whole night. That\'s how they came to cheat on the exams and had more knowledge of magic than their peers.
"What was the result of the experiment? How was the blessed child cured?" Urulas desperately asked.
"Cure?" Ovior frowned. "There was no cure. Why would there be any cure when they wanted to know the result of mixing the two bloods of two different creatures?"
Ovior\'s answer sounded like a cold-blooded human. Even Urulas felt his heart chilling.
He gritted his teeth and asked, "Did Veronica know?"
Ovior stated with a normal expression, "Why should I? It\'s not like it\'s our fault what happened to that lady. As a matter of fact, if it was us, we would have protected the blessed child from the humans and anyone who coveted her. "Just because we don\'t show it in our expressions doesn\'t mean we don\'t feel sorry for that poor girl. However, it\'s not like it\'s us who should feel guilty about things we didn\'t do.
"Anyway, if you want me to find a cure for it, I need to talk to Arthur who is living in the Magic Tower. He might find something to help out. However, I cannot guarantee he won\'t come here and attack you for what you did."
Urulas clenched his fists. He didn\'t want Arthur to find out what was happening here. After all, no one knew what a mad dog would do after it went crazy.
"Don\'t let him know," he said. "Just say that you are curious."
"And you think I\'m going to obey you?" Ovior\'s cold voice lashed out.
"This is not an order," Urulas retorted gently. "A request."
Ovior didn\'t say anything. He also knew what would happen if Arthur found out.
"I can do another thing but I have to leave this land for one day.," he said. "Can you protect Veronica until then?"
"You have my word," Urulas promised.
-------
Darkness overcast the sky as the sun kissed goodbye. The stars were twinkling dimly due to the dark clouds covering the sky. Even the gnats were silent. The dreary weather only reminded everybody of Veronica\'s sickness. The elves started praying for her. Ovior started packing his bag while muttering to himself, "I can\'t believe she fainted again. How many times has it been? People face so many issues in their life and she has to faint all the freaking time. No wonder Arthur is worried about her."
He only packed a few things out of necessity and headed outside. Urulas was waiting for him in the woods. "How is she doing?
Two of them went to the lake. It looked similar to the one they saw in the Human Realm.
Urulas opened the gate and let Ovior go to his realm. The moment he stepped into the Human Realm, the gate closed behind him.
He found his way to the nearest village. He was still renting the room in the inn. At that moment, someone else was staying in his room.
When he knocked on the door, that person opened the door. A strong smell of alcohol hit Ovior\'s nostrils. He knitted his eyebrows.
He heard the person saying, "Well, well, I thought you were on vacation. What happened this time?"
"I\'m glad to see you too," Ovior despondently replied. He entered the messy room and grunted. He sat on a chair and let out a sigh.
A few seconds later, his tired voice floated, "Do you know where Zinnia or Ironin is?"
Darius dropped the beer glass on the table and burped. Afterward, he sat on the bed and answered, "They are supposed to destroy the witches once and for all. But why are you suddenly asking this? Is this related to the reason you are here now?"
Ovior said, "Darius, I need Ironin back. Is there any way to contact him?"
Darius scratched his cheek. He was confused why Ovior needed Ironin all of a sudden. Other times, it was Arthur who always gave Ironin or others a mission, not the second-in-command.
He replied, "He doesn\'t carry any magical device with him. He is way too old-fashioned. Zinnia might have one. I can contact her."
"Do that. I need to contact him," Ovior urged him.
Darius used a magical stone and gave Zinnia a call.
Zinnia answered right away.
Her seductive voice rang in their ears, "Darius, I wasn\'t expecting your call. Did you miss me?"
Darius smirked. He replied, "If I tell you I missed you, will you sleep with me?"
Zinnia smoothly answered, "I didn\'t know your dick was still working. Do you want me to cut it for you?"
\'This bitch is savage,\' Darius cursed in his mind.
He changed the subject, "Here is the thing, Ovior wants to talk to Ironin. Are you two together? Can you talk?"
"We are in the boat filled with witches now but sure, we can talk," Zinnia lightly answered.
"A boat with witches?" Darius became curious. "What is happening?"
"A long story…"
Zinnia told him how they disguised themselves as witches and went to the boat.
Later, she took the chance and seduced the chef. While doing so, she added poison to the soup.
Everyone who was in the boat and other boats drank the soup and two days later, they started to feel discomfort. Later, they vomited and their stomachs ached badly. When they thought there was something wrong with their digestion or ingredients, one by one they died.
"Are you telling me you killed the bad witch who pushed Veronica?"
