Chapter 300: The Witch and The Ash-Covered Bride (10)
Although the Tin Knight’s remark seemed abrupt at first glance, Dorothea had become quite familiar with the Tin Knight’s way of speaking.
She understood the Tin Knight’s meaning precisely.
Since Dorothea had said, “Such a person is unlikely to appear,” it meant that such a person would definitely show up soon.
Her face momentarily contorted.
Dorothea reflexively wanted to shout that it couldn’t be, but she had to pause.
The experiences from their journey so far were too spectacular to simply deny the Tin Knight’s words.
Therefore, she began to coolly examine that possibility.
It would be far-fetched for a wild capable person with no connection to them to appear and clear the glass slipper test, but considering other factors?
First, quite a few powerful people were involved in this bride search. It was entirely “possible” that they might have used their power and wealth to hire outstanding capable individuals.
Moreover, the kingdom’s sacred treasure was involved in this matter. Just as Dorothea’s party had arrived in Lumière following the sacred treasure, there was a possibility that someone else might visit the city in search of the sacred treasure and consequently become involved in this incident.
Other than that… the possibility that someone connected to the Tin Knight’s party might be involved.
Surely not my teacher. It can’t be. It mustn’t be.
