Chapter 31
I know you must be surprised, but please understand that we had to reach out to you like this. I am Peyton, the third prince of the Empire.
What are you doing here?
His Majesty sent you this. The man handed me the black envelope in haste.
I couldnt remember exactly what the third prince said, but his voice was polite and clear.
Please tell him that Ill be there soon.
Yes, madam. Just a moment.
Bang.
As soon as I closed the door, I leaned back, laughing with quickened breaths.
No matter how hard I tried to speak, all that came out of my mouth was hysterical laughter. I was laughing like there was no tomorrow.
Madam.
Im sorry, but our plan will have to change. Its good to have different strategies, but I have to survive first.

Its not like theres a lot of people who use black magic. Demonic techniques are of a much higher caliber than normal magic; you cant perform them with sheer strength.
Rashid asked, So, youre saying they are outwardly indistinguishable?
Yes, it would be ridiculous if someone who genuinely knows how to use black magic couldnt erase their own traces, the royal wizard, kneeling, answered.
He came all the way north in search of Loams traces, but the wizard was ashamed because he had not known that the emperor would release him.
Your Majesty, if it is you or the previous wizards of your royal bloodline, then it is not impossible to catch the black magic user. But if its your uncle
Rashid wrinkled his dark eyebrows. Kerhan, the brother of his late mother and a grand wizard, had long since disappeared from the world. Although the five princes discovered their magical talents early on, they still kept in touch with the tower.
However, all Kerhan did was leave the German Pearlstone to the newborn Haniel without even attending his mothers funeral.
Then, how can we find them?
Those who practice the dark arts are usually black-haired. It does not show up at birth, but the user will grow into it.
And?
There are times when they act under the pretext of instability and isolation. And since they put effort into captivating their targets, theyre appearance will be charming
Im sure she is!
I told you to be careful. A low voice sounded.
Rashid gave Tennon a fierce look, signalling him not to step in. However, Rashid also had an indescribable, unrecognizable look on his face.
Is that all?
Ive never experienced it myself, but black magic users can also control a persons soul. I heard that its hard to escape the grasp of black magic because its irreversible; that is the power of darkness.
Thats too much.
Ill find out more. Anyway, if anyone uses black magic, we should be able to find out as soon as possible. Oh, Prince Peyton is here, too.
Youre back, Your Highness.
As soon as the royal wizard left, Peyton, who had delivered the letter, stepped inside.
Shifting his expression after feeling the unusual atmosphere, Rashid uncrossed his legs.
What did she say?
She looked a bit flustered, but she respected the Emperors words and agreed with your decision.
Surprised, Rashid stroked his chin.
Peyton coughed.
She said shes coming?
She said she awaits her meeting with the Emperor.
What? His older brothers exclamation resounded in the chamber.
Tennon scratched his cheek, feeling uncomfortable.
Are you sure you will be alright? What if shes really a witch?
Thats impossible.
Frowning, Rashid sat upright and rested his chin on his hands.
You cant give up this opportunity; Loam, Haniel, and a few suspicious beings from the north are there.
Right.
In the North, where there is no governor or family head, only two women take charge.
No matter the result, it was a basic rule to inspect the area beforehand.
