Chapter 210: NASTY RUMORS
"Who are they?" Zuri asked the old woman, she was not happy with this. How could they openly sell children right now?
"They are no one." She averted her eyes from Zuri. "Orphan from the street in front of my house. They are sister."
"And why do you think I will buy them?" Zuri stared at the two little girls. One of them, the younger one, looked so timid, as she kept glancing between her sister, the old woman and then Zuri, she was biting her nails.
Meanwhile, the older sister, stared at the ground, she didn’t make a sound at all, though occasionally, she would steal a glance toward her younger sister.
"Because the lycan needs children."
Okay, this was getting absurd. "And why the lycan needs children?"
"You don’t know?" The old woman widened her eyes, as if she was shocked that Zuri didn’t even know the common thing, she looked at her as if she was stupid, despite she didn’t have any idea who she was talking to. "The lycan needs the children for his practice in black magic. The lycan has an army of black magic users and they need children as their sacrifice for their power."
Zuri closed her eyes to calm herself down. As they marched to the heart of the Blackthorne pack, they started to hear rumors after rumors, which she assumed, it was the last effort of the king to turn the people against the lycan.
However, this was the most absurd thing that she had ever heard. How could they come up with such wild rumor about the lycan?
