Chapter 616: Wish (2)
“Do you really think we can escape without being caught?”
“It’s the power of the God of Darkness. No human can detect it.”
Rene, who was anxious, looked at Alsatin, who appeared completely unruffled. It didn’t seem like he was just pretending to be calm, but had he ever truly felt the power of a god before?
As Rene calmed down in the presence of Alsatin’s calmness, he finally breathed a sigh of relief when the Queen entered the room. He had erased all traces, but could he truly deceive the First Queen so perfectly?
Considering her temperament, she would thoroughly check if even the slightest suspicion arose.
Holding his breath, Rene watched her move. When he saw her head straight for the bed without hesitation, he felt a wave of relief.
Thank goodness. Just as Alsatin had said, the power of darkness was working as expected.
Did she come here every day? The First Queen sat down by the bed, her movements familiar, and she stared silently at the mummified corpse.
Her gaze was calm, as if she were looking at someone peacefully asleep.
That was when Rene felt a shiver run down his spine.
Even though she was his mother, there were many times when he couldn’t understand her, but he had never felt this level of incomprehension before.
Until now, the actions of the First Queen had always seemed rational, as if they were all done under the guise of restoring the kingdom. It had been unsettling, but if one tried, it was possible to understand her.
