Marceline''sst question caught her off guard. The Moon Goddess was conflicted on how she would answer that to her. The root cause of all of this was Dominique''s greed for power. And a poor soul had to sacrifice for Serena''s happiness.
"Moon Goddess? What do you think of my parents?" Marceline asked her again.
The Moon Goddess looked into her eyes and said, "Ste, there is goodness in everyone''s heart. Everyonemits mistakes often. But there is always a second chance for them to correct their wrong as long as they are alive. Repentance…"
"Find it in your heart… and you will get the answer you seek." The Moon Goddess said to her meaningfully.
Marceline could only bob her head. "Moon Goddess, I have another question. What do you know about Kira? Kira ric?"
"Kira damirovich ric… He is the Vampire King… the former King of the Kingdom Phantasia who reunited the different creatures a thousand years ago."
"Did you punish my parents because of him? Because they betrayed him?" Marceline asked her again.
The Moon Goddess squeezed Marceline''s hand, a faint smile appearing on her face. "No. It''s not because of him. It''s because of someone else… a child who is so close to my heart."
Marceline had no idea whom she was referring to. "What did my parents do to that person?"
"She suffered a lot because of them… but rest assured, I will fulfill her wish."
Marceline didn''t further ask about that mysterious person. She could feel that the Moon Goddess had no n to disclose more information about her.
"Onest question, Moon Goddess… How will you stop this war? Do you think werewolves, vampires, witches, and other creatures can live in harmony again and have peaceful lives together?" There was desperation in her voice when she said those words.
The Moon Goddess nodded her head. "Yes, I believe that there will be peace in Kingdom Phantasia. But I can''t do it alone… I need your help, Ste. This is my special mission for you. You have to unite all the creatures… influence them… and stop this war."
Marceline was dumbfounded when she heard that. Could she really do it?
"Why me, Moon Goddess? Why should it be me?" Marceline questioned her.
"Because it''s you… You are the only person who can do this. I know just like me… you want to stop this war because of someone you love."
Marceline lowered her gaze. Kira''s handsome face shed in her mind. Yes! She wanted to stop this war so that she could be with Kira. She didn''t want revenge anymore. She had another goal in mind now.
"Will you help me do this, Ste?" The Moon Goddess asked her from the bottom of her heart.
"Yes. I will. Just tell me what to do."
The Moon Goddess felt so d that Marceline agreed to take this important mission. Thedies talked about their strategy on how she would unite the different creatures.
The future of the Kingdom Phantasia was now in Marceline''s hand.
*****
Meanwhile, Dn already searched every corner of the Golden City but he failed to locate his sister. He was worried about her. He saw her pain and sadness when she ran away from them.
Now, he didn''t know where to find her. Then he recalled that there was an impostor, pretending to be his twin sister, Ste.
"Father and Mother… they might be in danger." Thinking about that, Dn was in a hurry toe back to Silvano Vi.<sub> </sub>
Dominique had returned to the vi and he was enraged after knowing that Dn and Marceline left the vi to meet Kira. He already warned Marceline not to go back to the Zhou Mansion.
Fortunately, Serena was there to pacify him. "Don''t worry about them, Niq. Dn is with Marceline. He will protect her."
Dominique furrowed his eyebrows. He was still anxious and uneasy.
"Summon the guards!" Dominique ordered the butler.
The elite werewolf fighters immediately gathered in front of the mansion, waiting for Dominique''smand.
Dominique and Serena went out to meet the fighters, their elite guards.
"Go and bring Dn and Marceline back to this mansion!" Dominique finally gave them hismand.
On the other hand, as Dominique and Serena were mobilizing the werewolf fighters, Beatrice was already making them drinks… drinks that contained poison.
She received a go signal from Victoria. It''s now time to move and eliminate the Werewolf King and Queen. She mixed vervain, sleeping potion, and immobilizing potion on their drinks.
She nned to poison them. And while they were at their weakest, Beatrice would kill them using a silver dagger.
She was done preparing the drinks and proceeded to the dining area. She went out to call Dominique and Serena to join her. The werewolf fighters already left so the husband and wife entered the house together with Ste.
The food was already prepared on the dining table. Serena and Dominique were silent as they were not in the mood. Beatrice tried her best to entertain them. She talked about her excitement to see the Kingdom Phantasia.
Because of that topic, Dominique''s and Serena''s attention was diverted. The three of them started to eat.
Beatrice made sure to pour the drinks into their sses. "Mother, Father… I prepared this fresh juice for you to enjoy. I hope that you will like it."
"Thank you, Ste. You are so sweet," Serena praised her before epting the ss.
Dominique just smiled at his daughter, lifting the ss for a cheer.
The three of them clinked their sses for a toast before drinking. Beatrice watched them meaningfully as she rejoiced inwardly. Who would have thought that they would drink it easily, without suspecting her? It only meant that they already gave her their full trust, thinking that she was their real daughter.
Beatrice, Dominique, and Serena continued their meal. It did not take long before Serena and Dominique suddenly became dizzy.
Thud!
Thud!
Both of them copsed in front of Beatrice. That was the time Beatrice called Victoria to inform her that their n worked.
"Lady Victoria… The werewolf fighters left the vi. You can drop by here and kill Dominique and Serena yourself."
"Good job, Beatrice… I''m on my way now!"
