Chapter 359.2
“Flora, did you truly believe that, as an Anika, you could attain Ramita through dark powers? I can vaguely guess who you heard that from, but it’s hard to believe you were that foolish. Or perhaps, did you want to believe those words?” Eugene expressed complete disappointment in Flora this time. Despite trying to empathize with Flora’s dark emotions after witnessing the fake’s hostility toward her, Eugene found Flora’s malice to be beyond understanding.
Feeling animosity toward someone and taking actions to harm that person are entirely different. Eugene couldn’t forgive Flora, especially considering the potential harm her conspiracy might bring to Eugene’s unborn child.
“Sven, this person has planned and executed harm within the palace. Bind her and imprison her. We will settle this when His Majesty arrives,” Eugene commanded.
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Flora, who had been glaring at Eugene with bloodshot eyes, burst into hysterical laughter.
“Jin, I’ll admit my mistake. I underestimated you. Facing someone who gained the power of an evil god, you were too formidable for me alone. Let’s call it a valuable learning experience.”
Flora chuckled and forcefully grabbed the necklace around her neck. Concealed inside her clothes, the necklace had a small pendant hanging from a thin silver thread. She pressed a translucent, bulging gem at the center of the pendant with her fingers and immediately swallowed it.
“Sven,” Eugene called him, signaling him to stop. The warriors who were about to move to capture Flora all stopped simultaneously.
Light began to emanate from Flora’s entire body, penetrating through her clothes.
