Chapter 106 Conspiracy


    "Of course! Your Royal Highness, you can evaluate all the spirit-manipted beasts on the Super


    Beast Farm. By the way, you can help us to find the value of these beasts." Tobin was so impressed


    after watching Rocky''s exceptional skill in evaluating beasts yesterday.


    "A few spirit-manipted beasts are enough. But could you help me to find a quiet ce?" Rocky said


    with a little hollowugh at once. He didn''t know that Tobin was so greedy until now. He even wanted


    Rocky to evaluate all the spirit-manipted beasts.


    Tobin then arranged a remote stable for Rocky in a short time. Few people woulde there. Rocky


    was very satisfied with that. Afterward, Tobin also asked his men to send a few spirit-manipted


    beasts to Rocky at once.


    Rocky stayed there alone and evaluate the beasts through his Magical Evaluation Skill. He was busy in


    evaluating but he enjoyed himself.


    Time flew! Working untilte in the afternoon, Rocky forgot to have lunch, which Tobin had brought for


    him. Tobin had prepared the best food for him in order to please him.


    Though it was a big meal, Rocky didn''t take notice and didn''t bother about eating. He was obsessed


    with his work.


    Rocky didn''t walked out of the stable slowly until it turned dark. He came to the Pce City after saying


    goodbye to Tobin.


    For the next days, Rocky gave the ten-thousand golden bill to the guards of Pce City in order to the


    Super Beast Farm. Moreover, Prince Basil was so famous in the Holy Dragon Empire. The guards


    dly let him go out of the Pce City. Sometimes, he woulde along with Uriah for intensive


    training.


    One day, Lena went to Rocky''s chamber as soon as he had left. She wanted to find out from the maids


    where Rocky had gone. As usual, he left before dawn and stayed out until veryte, making it almost


    impossible for anyone to know what he was up to.


    "All right! I wille backter. In a few minutes I should be at Consort Allison''s. She is teaching me


    embroidery." Having learned that Rocky was not in, Lena left with her own maids.


    Elsewhere, a terrible conspiracy was cooking in Alston''s pce, on the other side of the Pce City.


    "Priest Dean, have you finished preparing the secret medicine?" Alston asked as he looked at Priest


    Dean, who was seated beside him. Though they stayed in Alston''s pce, he still asked in a whisper,


    afraid that someone might eavesdrop on their conspiracy, which would throw a spanner in the works for


    them.


    Priest Dean cautiously brought out a ck bottle from his sleeve and gave it to Alston. At once, Alston


    smiling insidiously, stretched his hand to receive the ck bottle. But instead of handing out the bottle,


    Priest Dean held back and cautioned sternly, "If something goes wrong, I think that you should know


    how to do it. I don''t want to get into trouble for helping you to prepare the medicine. Have you ensured


    that your ns are airtight?"


    "Don''t worry. I am well prepared, and I can assure you, we will seed this time. Consort Allison is not


    at ease today, meaning His Majesty might not go to her chamber. I have also bought off all her maids.


    There won''t be anyone else in the pce at that time. Of course, we''ll have to eliminate anyone who


    might pose a threat to our n. Don''t worry!" Alston was like a cold-blooded murderer, and he made


    his ns meticulously, well in advance.


    His confidence finally made Priest Dean rxed enough to give out the ck bottle. "It is easy to use.


    You only need to blow the powder into the room," Dean exined. "We only need him to inhale the


    slightest amount of the powder. Unless he is a spirit maniptor, above the Divine Stage, he won''t


    survive drug."


    "Thanks for your help, Priest Dean. That''s what we have been waiting for." Alston caught the ck


    bottle and carefully assessed it. Awed by the magical power of the powder, a smile crept to his face.


    Every part of their plot was perfect, so far.


    Rocky brought Uriah to his chamber at dusk. His maids told him that Lena hade to see him earlier


    in the day. For a moment, he debated with himself whether he should check on Lena and find out why


    she hade looking for him. But before he could decide, an unfamiliar maid came into the chamber.


    "Could you tell me where His Royal Highness is?" that maid inquired.


    "What is the matter?" Rocky asked when he realized she wasn''t Lena''s maid.

    "Your Royal Highness, Consort Allison would want to have a word with you in her chamber alone. She


    has something important to tell you," said the maid.


    ''Consort Allison? She is the consort of Basil''s father. Why does she want me to go there?'' There was


    something odd, and he could sense it. He had hardly met Allison, let alone talking to her. But he still


    nodded and followed the maid to Allison''s chamber, wondering why she wanted to talk to him secretly.


    Meanwhile, in her chamber, Allison and Lena were discussing something.


    "Lena, you have been obsessed with embroiderytely. Is there someone special that you would want


    to give that beautiful embroidered piece you just made? Have you fallen in love with someone?" Allison


    asked Lena while Lena was lost in her embroidery, doing a mandarin duck* patterns on the


    handkerchief. Allison was an adorable woman with charming looks and a warm personality


    (*TN: mandarin duck is a symbol of love in China.)


    Lena did not immediately realize what she was saying. When she did, she became so blushed that


    Allison knew the girl was in love with someone. Feeling embarrassed to slip a secret about her love,


    Lena fumbled with the needle, piercing her index finger in the process. "Consort Allison, there''s no one


    at all. I... haven''t given any serious thought to love, and... stuff," she replied with a slight stutter, trying


    to avoid looking so obvious. But even if she denied being in love, her face was blushing red like a rose.


    It was obvious that she was falling in love with someone.


    "Really?" Allison just smiled, clearly aware that Lena was a shy girl by nature.


    "It is getting dark. It is time to go home." Lena looked outside. Twilight deepened. She also wanted to


    see Rocky, so it was time for her to leave. She stood up in a hurry and suddenly, but strangely a


    sudden dizziness crept on her. It felt like she was going to hit on the ground the next moment.


    Quickly, Allison rushed forward to support her from falling. In a worried tone she asked, "Is anything


    wrong, Lena? Are you feeling dizzy? You were well just now."


    "I feel light headed, like I might being down with a flu. I didn''t have a good restst night. Nothing


    major to worry about." When Lena touched her own forehead, she sensed she was starting to run a


    fever.


    "Come have a rest, please. You can''t go out before we are clear that you are strong enough. You can


    as well sleep in my bed," Allison offered, getting worried at how Lena looked pale in the face.


    "How could I sleep in your bed? I don''t want to inconvenience your rest." Lena declined, shaking her


    head. But then she sensed she was getting more and more dizzy.


    "Never mind. I have asked the cooks to make some special soup for His Majesty. I am going to bring


    the soup to him. Meanwhile, you rest here," Allison said with a smile. She then wrapped her arm


    around Lena''s shoulders and walked her to bed.


    After Lenay down, she smiled to Allison to show her appreciation.


    "Have a rest now. When Ie back, I will arrange people to send you back," Allison said, on her way


    out of the room.


    Lena nodded at her feebly, her body feeling heavy. She closed her eyes and gradually drifted off.
