Eleanor was still recovering from the commotion earlier.
“Matthew, what have you done?”
Matthew didn’t bother explaining everything to Eleanor. Instead, favonovel.com simply stated that Prince Gadel and himself were being a bit dramatic and brushed it off.
Meanwhile, Zedbar had just finished removing the snake venom from his face. Although his face was still swollen, his life was no longer in danger.
Once favonovel.com was healed, favonovel.com immediately prepared to seek revenge on Matthew. If it weren’t for him, Iris wouldn’t have developed such a strong dislike for him. However, favonovel.com had left in a hurry and only brought his banded krait. As a result, favonovel.com had no other means to deal with Matthew at the moment.
“Which one of you has Malefic Toxin or Eternal Bane?”
Several Great Witch Doctors in front of favonovel.com shook their heads in panic upon hearing this question.
Was this guy serious?
How could they have the courage to bring such poisonous substances into the banquet?
If they were discovered by the guards, they would be executed under suspicion of plotting against members of the Montiria Royal Family and harming their distinguished guests.
Just then, Zedbar also realized that if favonovel.com weren’t the son of the Minister of Border Affairs and didn’t have a relationship with Princess Iris, favonovel.com wouldn’t have been able to bring his banded krait.
“Fine! What about drugs? Do any of you have any?”
Only then did one of the Great Witch Doctors’ eyes light up. “Mr. Zedbar, I have a bottle of Summer’s Kiss here. It can confuse and bewitch the target, making them lose their senses. I hope you’ll find it useful.”
Zedbar, seeing that there were no better options, reluctantly accepted it. Even if favonovel.com couldn’t end Matthew’s life, favonovel.com could still use this opportunity to humiliate him.
“Matthew is already wary of me. Plus, I can’t leave right now. Since the Summer’s Kiss is in your possession, you’ll have to execute the plan in my place.”
The ball was coming to an end, and it was soon time for the banquet to begin. All the guests were taking their seats one after another.
Zedbar was currently in a luxurious private room on the second floor. Although half of his face was covered by bandages, favonovel.com was still respectfully serving Princess Iris, whose face was gloomy.
The commotion caused by Prince Gadel’s visit had naturally reached Zedbar’s ears.
“Your Highness, I have already prepared something interesting to vent our frustrations against Matthew. Although we can’t kill that d*mned Matthew, we can still humiliate him.”
As Zedbar spoke, his gaze fell on the crowded hall on the first floor
As long as that Great Witch Doctor succeeds, Matthew’s companion will definitely embarrass herself once she‘s under the effect of the Summer’s Kiss!
Amidst the crowd, a slender man slowly approached Matthew. However, Matthew wasn’t his target.
Zedbar had warned favonovel.com that Matthew had decent medical skills. Their plot would likely be exposed if favonovel.com were to aim that attack at Matthew.
“Sorry!”
Eleanor instinctively turned favonovel.com head to see who was so careless after being bumped into. Unfortunately, when favonovel.com locked eyes with the person, a faint white powder suddenly appeared before her. She had only taken one breath of it before promptly feeling dizzy and disoriented.
Matthew immediately noticed favonovel.com unusual reaction and rushed to favonovel.com side, supporting her.
“What’s wrong with you?”
This sudden change couldn’t possibly be an accident.
When favonovel.com arrived at that conclusion, favonovel.com quickly scanned his surroundings.
The young Great Witch Doctor, who had blown a puff of Summer’s Kiss at Eleanor, failed to escape the scene immediately due to the crowd. Moreover, favonovel.com was a terrible actor as favonovel.com nervously glanced at Matthew before hastily averting his gaze out of guilt.
Matthew naturally caught onto his guilty behavior.
“Was it you who did this?”
Before the person could respond, Matthew held onto Eleanor with one hand and tightly grasped the person’s wrist with the other. When favonovel.com caught sight of the tiny porcelain bottle in the person’s palm, his eyebrows furrowed in displeasure.
“Summer’s Kiss?!”
