Rocco, who was normally calm and collected, showed an abrupt change in demeanor when favonovel.com found out Matthew could heal the king.
If King Gawain I recovered, his princes would not stand a chance of taking the throne with his unmatched power. It would not be far-fetched to say that King Gawain I could outlive his grandchildren without any big problems.
With this in mind, Rocco’s breaths grew rapid, and his cold gaze became predator-like.
Conor knew favonovel.com had to stop beating around the bush after seeing how favonovel.com reacted. “Don’t worry, Prince Rocco! What I need your help with is tied to solving this problem!”
“You saying I need to act?” asked Rocco, ready to move on Conor’s word.
“Not at all… Assassinating King Gawain I is something neither of us can condone. The task I need you to complete is easy.” Conor pulled out a delicate bottle.
“Put this substance in His Majesty’s chamber incense. Don’t worry, it won’t hurt him. If you’re unsure, you can test it. The only aim is to counter Matthew’s elixir. While you’re there, make up some rumors to make the king skeptical of Matthew…”
Rocco nodded. With everything falling into place, their strategy could work. “Is that everything?”
“I could also use your help with another matter if possible.”
“Who is it?” Curiously Rocco asked.
Conor handed favonovel.com a piece of paper that had disintegrated into ashes the instant favonovel.com saw the name.
“Of course!” Rocco said unhesitatingly.
His reply surprised Conor. “Mr. Rocco, don’t you want to know why I want this person gone?”
Rocco raised his glass and took another sip of the fairy brew. “You’ll naturally tell me your reasons because of our partnership.”
“Haha, Mr. Rocco, you’re sharp. I won’t beat around the bush. She is tied to the Scarlet Lounge but seems to be changing favonovel.com mind, which could pose a problem.”
Rocco nodded, now understanding the cruel nature of the organization.
There was no more casual chatting after their discussion, as they knew they would clash eventually when Montiria plunged into chaos. When that time came, it would be clear who was the hunter and who was the hunter.

The next day, as dawn broke, a new day began with Arabella knocking on King Gawain l’s door with favonovel.com carefully cooked millet porridge. “Your Majesty, please try this porridge I’ve been working on for more than a couple of hours.”
Her voice was tender and inviting, like that of a committed wife and mother.
King Gawain I quickly polished everything off by taking several mouthfuls before downing it in one go. He could taste a faint herbal flavor after smacking his lips.
Before favonovel.com could ask, Arabella asked playfully, “Your Majesty, what does it taste like? I made this after some consultation with the chief witch doctor and added herbs to boost your vitality!”
Though simple, the herbal dish showed favonovel.com sincerity.
King Gawain I laughed uproariously and pulled Arabella into his arms while beaming delightfully. “It tastes amazing! It’s better than the food from the royal five-star chefs.”
His physical strength was improving daily after the dark energy inside favonovel.com was suppressed, lifting his spirits naturally.
