Chapter 73: A plea for a prince, or a saviour.
Before Sylus stepped out of the house, he decided to hand the summons over to Zani’s mother in the meantime.
Of course, their reaction was just as he expected.
Zani was speechless, while her mother was frightened just holding the monster.
"Wh-what is this, Your Highness..." her mother asked, her hands stretched forward even though she was holding Fabi.
Sylus replied, "Well, her name is Fabi. Don’t be alarmed; she is a very good friend of mine. While your daughter and I are still working to rid the city of the Red Viper, she will be here to protect you."
Zani raised a brow, fairly sure that Sylus never mentioned any of this to her.
"Protect me? —Wait, Your Highness wants to... fight the Red Vipers?" Too many questions swarmed the poor woman’s mind.
Quite frankly, other than the fact she was holding a creature she had never heard about, she also knew how dangerous the Red Viper group could be.
The fact they have been tormenting the city for many years already permanently left a lasting impression on not just her, but everyone who was a victim of them as well.
Even if the king came and made the very same claim, she would still be anxious about it.
But for some reason, in just a day, she had grown fond of Sylus; she didn’t want anything bad to happen to him.
