"I met Brenda the other day after she finished her duty at the royal gathering. She talk about a patient. He was a homeless old man, talking about two lady dragging a group of monster in the middle of the night. Everyone in the hospital thought he was crazy, but Brenda thought it's wise to tell us."

Liam can see through Quincy eyes. He was thinking of something insane but it is not impossible.

"Is it possible to make a philosopher's stone from the beast? They didn't have soul isn't it they just have…"

Quincy nodded at Liam's unspoken words.

"They have a core, unlike human who have beating heart they live using a core"

Mona face darken.

"The red snakes kills the keepers to shaken the border so they can have more beast to farm"

Quincy shake his head, denying Mona words.

"No, the keepers are not linked to the border. The Ethereal Kingdom itself is the border. Only when the whole kingdom were wipe out, the barrier will lift. And it's not easy to destroy the kingdom."

"Why the snakes aiming the secret keeper if it is not the key to shaken the barrier."

"Thats, i'm not sure either. Only few people know their duty as the keepers. And what they keep, I wish I can ask the person who were lying down there in peace"

There's silence in the room. Liam has been wanting to ask about this matter but.

"Did the king really can't recognise her?"

Mona nodded and left a soft sigh. She brought her hand to her c.h.e.s.t and leaned her back to the couch.

"It's like she didn't even exist."

Mona hesitates but she calmly continues her words.

"They were bound by ill fate. Sooner or later, they will be brought to meet up."

Mona brought her hands up when Liam wanted to speak. She asks him to wait until she finishes.

"I know, I was careless about her safety after that damn ancient soul being her guardian. And I think it was time to train her."

Liam just calm in his sit. He know what she said was right. He just didn't ready, or actually he cant see her to suffer those hellish training.

"She not a spoiled rich brat Liam, we know how she live during this 20 years. She live like there's no tomorrow while trying to survive in this world. Being suddenly a princess doesn't change her whole life"

Liam close his eyes. He was away from her life when his grandfather trained him, he was being secluded to become his successor.

It just five years ago he finally granted to see her and it was only from afar.

His grandfather have him to make a vow to not contact her. It was for her safety as Blackdawn has many enemies and foe.

But two years ago, another secret section was suddenly appeared. After all of this time, there were no single soul, not even WAO can trace Blackdawn Section and now there was new section out there manage to disrupt all their secret mission.

They also responsible in hurting his grandfather who now was lying in coma. He also suffered an inflicted black curse that damage his internal body.

The room once again fall into a silent cold air. Quincy already head out to make a research about the beast core.

Their deep thought were distract by a blue flame that appeared in the middle of air where Mona sit.

Mona catch the letter that suddenly fall in front her. It burned into thin air once Mona read the letter. She get on her feet and activate her gem.

"Mona? "

"Ayanna are home"

Liam was stand to follow her but Mona stopped him with a fiery glare.

"You stay here, she was safe and alive. Don't you dare to make a move or I swear to take her away far from you. And you know I capable of doing that"
