Chapter 748
Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince by Dark Knight
Chapter 748 The Intervention Of The Royal Family
Sylvia’s POV:
I pushed ir’s hand away and stepped back. “Of course, you’re special to me. You’re not only my
teacher, but you’ve always been helpful to me. Most importantly, you’re Rufus’ best friend.”
I intentionally emphasized thest sentence to warn him not to cross the line.
Although ir never said it outright, his words and actions implied a lot. However, I didn’t want things to
be awkward with him because he meant a lot to both Rufus and me.
For a moment, he didn’t say anything. Then, his smile suddenly dissipated. His expression was now
ratherplicated. He stared at me quietly for a few seconds and said nothing before putting his hood
back on.
“What are you doing here in the ck market? I can help you.”
I hesitated for a while before finally saying, “I’m here to find an expert in witchcraft.”
ir nodded. “Come with me. I’ll take you to meet the most powerful wizard here. Ordinary people
can’t see him.”
Soon, ir took me to a darker ce. Earlier, I could still see somemps in the alley, but only candles
illuminated the area here. All the buildings and structures were very primitive. Even the sound of wind
seemed like it came from an ancient forest.
Still, a sizable number of people were present. This ce was also lively, but people wore more
luxurious robes and cloaks.
This ce was much more advanced than where I had been earlier.
Along the way, ir took the time to exin to me what the ck market was and its operations. I
could tell he knew this ce very well, seeing how he seemed to be familiar with even the smallest
alleys and all the shortcuts.
He seemed to know what I was thinking and murmured, “I oftene here. Rufus is also a regr
customer here.” “Rufuses here a lot?” I was shocked. I thought the ck market was an illegal
ce, so when I decided toe here, I tried to psyche myself up.
ir cracked a grin and said matter-of-factly, “Let’s not be judgmental. The royal family also needs to
engage in business in other uwful areas. But they have to be discreet and must not overdo it. So it
requires secret regtion and supervision. The wizards and witches may look mysterious, but many of
them are actually Rufus’ people. Many of their customers are also from the royal family.”
I swallowed and felt like a naive fool falling into a trap.
I was under the impression that the ck market was closed off to the general public and that anyone
who went here was actively breaking thew.
Unlikely as it may seem, the royal family had already been supervising it.
I should have thought of this. The ck market was located in the heart of the capital city. It was only
natural that the royal family knew its existence.
I couldn’t help but touch my forehead in frustration. I had been so stupid recently.
“So, if you don’t want Rufus to know you are here, you should be more careful. Maybe one of these
passers-by is his confidant,” ir said in a firm tone.
Hearing this, I immediately pulled down the hood of my cloak and looked around vigntly.
A yful smile crept on ir’s lips when he saw me like that. “It looks like you and Rufus still don’t trust
each otherpletely. What secret are you trying to hide from him?”N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.
