Chapter 835: It Could Lead to Another Great War
Princess Seraphina and Emily were not able to control their expressions as well and were gawking at Alvis, wondering how he was still alive.
Even if it was for penitence, consuming the same poison was a bit much.
Alvis controlled his expression when he realized he let something slip. He gave them a fake smile and said, "Yes. It hurt so much at first but I got used to it after some time."
[It’s the only thing I have been consuming for several millennia. It’s nothing but tea to me now.] Alvis thought.
’It runs in the blood indeed,’ Arabella concluded.
She learned that Alvis only stopped drinking it when he learned Alwin was alive and met him for the first time.
Alvis drank the tea Alwin served him and had been consuming the same tea since then.
[When was the last time it hurt when I drank it? Ah, I forgot. I didn’t feel like anything after some time when I think of how painful it must have been to everyone who lost their lives from it. Even Your Majesty was also poisoned with this.]
The image of the Fairy Queen appeared in Alvis’ mind as he glanced at Arabella.
Arabella finally understood Alvis’ reason.
Losing so many of his people, comrades, and friends — it must have hurt so much.
