336: THE DARK MAGIC USER

THE DARK MAGIC USER

Lady Cyan couldn't believe what she was seeing. Not even her father could do this, neither her younger brother. What's the deal with this runt?1

She watched everything and the king could feel the tension came from her, as he glanced to his mistress. "Do you have any idea why she can do that?"

"No," lady Cyan replied curtly. She balled her fists, but her expression remained serene.

"So, what the meaning of this?" King Aeon asked in low voice, which only the two of them could hear.

However, lady Cyan didn't answer him immediately. She contemplated the situation and watched how all the people were flabbergasted, what Iris had done blew their mind.

"Ask him how to find the true perpetrator," lady Cyan said to the king. She was still clueless about the lycan and how princess Osana got cursed, but this alpha from the Howling Wolf pack had a way to figure it out? She wanted to see what he would do.

"It's so admiring for the luna of the Howling Wolf pack to have such ability, but how can you find the perpetrator with that?" The king then added. "Will she be able to sniff the owner of the shard black magic stone? Even so, the owner had died. You have killed her and the only clue has gone!"

Hearing that, Cane scoffed. "My king, I have not yet said anything, but you have drawn a conclusion. I am sure it's because you are very concern about your son, the fourth prince, who had gone missing for days, or else, it would look like you want to put the blame on me and end this newly found pointer."

King Aeon's face turned red because of the blatant disrespect that Cane showed in front of everyone. But, it was actually him, who had offended the alpha first by insinuating his mate was a dog, who would sniff around the black magic stone.

However, before the king could lash out and put him into difficult position, Cane immediately changed the topic smoothly to highlight the importance of this meeting and directed all the people's attention toward the topic he wanted they paid close attention to.

"If my mate can pinpoint the right spot of the shard black magic stone within my flesh, it will not hard for her to look for it somewhere else. Why don't we go to the East Palace and see whether the same black magic stone was there or not."

East Palace was the place where princess Osana stayed and no one dared to come closer to the palace, since they were afraid the curse would inflict them as well.

"Why we should go there? What is the point if we found the black magic stone there? It will not help to reveal the true perpetrator!" This time, it was Alan's advisor, who spoke.

Apparently, the crown prince finally learned from his mistake and started to use his brain a little bit and now he used his advisor to voice out his grievances.

"Every black magic left trace, that's the principle of the black magic. The perpetrator must have something from the victim and the victim must have kept something that contain black magic without them knowing it. In princess Osana's case, I believe we will find something in her palace that suffused with black magic for her to suffer from the curse." Cane looked at the head of the royal sorcerer. "Correct me if I am wrong, magic is not my forte."

"I don't think so," lady Cyan spoke for the first time, her voice rang throughout the main hall, it was calm and dignified. "From the way you spoke, it seems like you have learned about magic for quite sometimes."

Cane smiled, but it didn't reach is eyes at all. "The king entrusted me with the problem that involved black magic and the cursed creature like the lycan, it is only natural for me to teach myself a little bit about it."

Reading Cane's answer, Iris really wanted to clap her hands. She was in awe with her mate. How could he so calm to answer every question that came to his way and he had all the answer prepared.

He didn't even flinch when he talked about the lycan, exposing himself out there in the open to those people. He literally fooled them all, right in their face.

He twisted the story as he liked and if Iris didn't know better, she would have a hard time distinguishing between what was true and what was not.

"Actually, the curse on princess Osana is not required for her to accidentally keep the black magic stone, as long as the dark magic user has her personal possession, the curse could happen."

Hearing that, a malicious look glinted in Cane's eyes. "My lady, how do you know such detail? Did you learn about black magic as well?"

Haco had told him, he couldn't continue to curse princess Osana, because there was another black magic user in the palace and they killed children to counter his magic, unless Cane wanted to turn blind eyes to the dead children, they couldn't keep cursing the princess.

Haco himself was harshly against it. He could tolerate Cane tricked him into cursing the princess, but he didn't want to stain his hands with the blood of the innocent children.

So did the alpha, thus it stopped and princess Osana didn't have any flared up again recently.

However, her condition was not improving, since the curse was not completely lifted.

"I am from Andelus Continent, where the Holy Kingdom where, I know a thing or two about magic," lady Cyan replied calmly, she looked unfazed, but her eyes lit up, she was on guard. The alpha was not someone that she could look down upon.

She had heard all the banter related to him and how he was a great negotiator, but only now she also learned, he was very cunning and his words hid his wickedness.

This alpha was someone that could dig information by asking a simple question or get some clue by the way his opponent asked him. Even a question that was thrown at him could be an information for him.

Didn't want Cane to dig deeper into her background, lady Cyan shifted the topic. Most of the people knew if she was from Andelus continent, but it was still a question of whether she could do magic or not.

"In that case, why don't we go to the East Palace?"

"It could be someone else, who has cursed the princess." The head sorcerer was trying to appeal to his case. "There is possibility it was another dark magic user who had done it."

If it was proven the same witch that had tried to curse the alpha was the same black magic user, who had cursed the princess, he would be doomed, after all, princess Osana was the king's blood sister. He didn't know how he would survive the court, let alone kept his head intact.

"Are you trying to say there are more traitor within your rank? Just how many your magic users, who had turned into dark sorcerer?" Cane asked him bluntly.
