Chapter 216 Sanity

"It seems that they threw away a good seed," Rosalind said.

"What was that?" he asked.

"What?"

"Sorcery?"

"No." Rosalind shook her head. "I am not like that."

"Then..." The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

"I am just like you and him."

"Elias."

"Right."

"What do you mean?" he asked.

"Let me show you." Rosalind then held her hand and a ball of light appeared in her palm.

"Light," he muttered in disbelief.

"Right now, no one can see us. Not even Sofia's maid who was trying to spy on Elias not too far away."

"Ah, that—" Valentin gave an awkward smile. "Please do not mind them. They have been doing that since Elias revealed his strength."

Rosalind nodded. Still, Valentin did not drop the shield around him.

"How did you recognize me?" Valentin said.

"I can smell you."

"What?"

"Well... not me. My Blessing can feel yours," Rosalind lied without batting an eyelid.

"That's a lie. There is no way that the light Blessing can do that. I have not heard of that before."

"I have not heard that the Gliss Family and Blaize Family had abandoned two powerful bastards either," Rosalind responded with a sarcastic tone.

"You—"

"I was jesting."

"Yes. He asked me to sort out the problems in Lonyth."

"Huh?" Valentin frowned. "Problems in Lonyth?" It had nothing to do with Wugari. Then his eyes widened. "His Grace is close to the King of Lonyth."

"Yes."

"He wanted you to save the King?"

"I cannot tell you the details of my mission."

Valentin said nothing. That was understandable. However, this did not remove his suspicion that the woman was lying about something. "Why did you reveal yourself to us?" he asked. There were only two reasons why she would do that. First, she wanted to use this to her advantage, meaning, she would probably blackmail them or make them do her bidding. Second, if she wanted to work with them.

Seeing that it was only Rosie and Lucas, Valentin was leaning toward the second reason.

"My... of course it was because I wanted to extort you," Rosie calmly said. Almost immediately, Valentin's face turned ugly.

He knew that the woman was joking as she was smiling but this immediately left a bad taste in his mouth.

"I was fooling around," Rosie said. "Lightened up Sir Gliss, you are too—"

"Do not!" Valentin hissed, his face turning red. "Do not call me that again."

"Yes, Sir." Rosie casually nodded. "But the reason why I revealed all this is because I want you to work with me."

"Pardon?"

"Work with me. Aren't you planning on going to Wugari? You can work with the Duke and me."

"We were already planning to work with the Duke."

"Well, I am offering you to work with me," Rosalind said.

"Why would you do that?"

"Because I wanted to bring them down?"

Out of nowhere, Valentin burst out laughing. "I— I apologize. I thought I heard you say something funny."

Rosie shrugged. "I wanted to bring down the Seven Families."

"Uh... " Valentin did not know what to say. Who in their right mind would try to bring down the seven empires that ruled this continent?

This woman was clearly out of her mind!
