Chapter 630 Is Peachy

Prince John looked reluctant, but for his sister, he was willing to risk it.

"Alright, we will be right outside the door. Kindly notify us once you're done." He agreed.n--0VElb1n

Rail was going to stay inside, but the advisor pulled her outside as well, then sealed the door and cast a darkness spell over the outside of the door and the windows so that the view inside was completely blocked.

Wolfe looked up at the young woman from his chair. "You must be somewhat special to the Prince for him to be willing to pay up with no negotiations. He went straight to having you healed before he even asked the price.

lightsnοvεl Now, you can put your clothes on that chair, and we can get started."

"Excuse me?" The Princess asked, outraged and mistaking the nature of the Magi's bold suggestion.

"This is a medical procedure. I need to pull thousands of shards of metal from your body with magic, and the odds are that most of them will come out of your skin to prevent organ damage. I need to see what I'm doing, and that means no clothing in the way.

Relax, it's just like going to the doctor's office, and it will even end with a potion for you to drink to feel better." That made her smile a little, but she moved out of sight behind a bookshelf to disrobe.

"If you will lay on the study table, I'm certain the process will be uncomfortable, but I'm not sure how your pain tolerance is, or how much this will hurt. Null Stone reacts differently to different species." Wolfe suggested.

The pale bronze Demoness modestly attempted to cover her vital bits as she lay on the table, so Wolfe relented and cast a barrier over her in the form of an elevated blanket, not quite touching her skin. A simple tweak of the spell made the air magic appear white to others, but transparent to the caster, and the Princess visibly relaxed.

"Better? Alright, I will get started now. Let me know if you need a healing potion while we work to keep the pain under control. I can split it into vials to take in doses." The only one he had was one from home, but it shouldn't be difficult to get the Palace to replace it, as they had at least a few Witches around.

Looking at the issue closely, Wolfe decided that the poison had most likely been administered in a drink, as the majority of it was stuck to the interior of her stomach lining, while the remainder had lodged itself somewhere in her digestive tract, slowly poisoning her body and blocking the flow of mana.

Because she was young, and even younger when first poisoned, she had never grown powerful enough to overwhelm the embedded metal with her own natural healing, which a stronger demon's body would have managed.

"Oh! Why didn't I know that?" She asked.

"Why are you asking me? I just met you, I don't know why your teachers missed such a simple thing. Perhaps because it's rude to look through disguises and clothing all the time? Wanting to see everyone that you meet naked does sound like a deviant sort of behaviour unsuited to a Princess." Wolfe suggested.

"And yet, the Magi Patriarch sees no problem doing it himself?"

"If it wasn't for double standards, I wouldn't have any standards at all.

But now you know how to do it, and it will come in handy in the future when you're going to enter a room. Just remember that some demons are going to be able to feel the fact that you have spells active. So, if you're not wearing a protective amulet, then it might seem suspicious." The Princess nodded in understanding. "So that's how you hide it. You're always wearing an armour spell, so there is always magic active on you."

"Not just that, a Magi actively pulls in and emits mana at all times. So, I radiate magic. But we should get you dressed so you can return to your tour. Was there more that you wanted to see around the Palace, or did you come here specifically for this?" She shook her head. "My brother is here for something else. He only called me to join him when he heard the rumours this morning. It must have cost him a fortune, too, since he paid to use the Palace's portal array to get me here."

She hurried into her dress, then looked at Wolfe and covered herself again with a suspicious glare.

"Relax. I don't keep the sensitivity high enough that it looks through clothing. In a palace full of old men, that's just not good for the mental health. I only use it to see mana flows more clearly most of the time. But if you would like your mana system enhanced, come see me again. I can save you a bunch of time in your progression."

Wolfe opened the door once she was properly composed, and Prince John's entourage came rushing in. "How was it? Are you healed?" He asked.

"The poison is gone from my body, and I drank a healing potion. It will take time to recover my strength, but I am no longer sick, thank you for your concern." She replied.

The servant girl with them pulled her into a joyful hug while Rail dabbed at the corner of her eye. "It's so sweet, I'm going to cry. But what was so secret that not even I could know what you're doing? Since when do you keep secrets from me?" The Succubus demanded.

The Princess glared at Wolfe and mouthed the words, "You Promised."

"Sorry Rail, doctor patient confidentiality and all. If you want to know, you will have to ask her directly."
