Eternal Potions Store…
On the 7th floor, Kent is walking towards the boss room, wondering about the mysterious lady. Behind him, the manager is staring at the list of herbs Kent ordered with a wide, open mouth.
“Madam, one set of these items costs 3000 gold coins. That fellow asked for 10 sets. Now, you offered him a free bill. I can’t imagine what he is going to order now.” The manager spoke in a concerned tone while packing things for Kent.
Joya sighed in frustration after seeing the list of Kent’s purchases. “Good God, can he really afford these in the first place?” Joya asked with gritted teeth.
“He has a golden piggy card.” The manager gave a single-line answer, which is enough for Joya to understand Kent’s background.
“He is really a big fish. I better maintain good contact with him.” Joya muttered while staring at Kent, who is opening the room door.
If Black Belle Miss was here with her aunt Joya, the situation might have been completely different.
Just as Kent opened the door of the boss room, his eyes went wide in surprise, and his heart began beating faster. “Poison sect girl.” Kent muttered while staring at the long-haired girl, whose beauty is breathtaking.
Maya’s beauty is a bit above Sophia’s, as she has a perfect chest compared to Sophia, with strange dimples which can flutter any man.
“Greetings, benefactor.” Maya greeted with a head bow while clasping her hands.
Controlling his sudden surprise, Kent stepped inside the room, closing the door behind him. “What are you doing here? Aren’t you worried about people finding you?” Kent asked in a hurried tone while approaching her closely.
Instead of replying, Maya gestured for Kent to sit on the small wooden table close to the window. Surprised by her calm behavior, Kent approached her and sat close to her on the same wooden table.
“We have several allies in this city, benefactor. Even though everyone is an enemy on the surface, all these people need the resources of the poison sect. How do you think we existed in all these years without the support of locales?” Maya replied while staring outside the window.
“Oh… It seems your sect really has deep roots in the city. By the way, stop calling me a benefactor. You already gave me the precious manual. My name is Kent Clark.” Kent replied, staring at her pink face. A strange aromatic smell is coming from Maya’s body, and it is making Kent restless as he sits close to her.
Instead of replying to Kent, Maya is staring at the distant horizon with a sad face. As Kent tried to call her, tears shimmered in her eyes as she began sobbing in a stuttering tone.
“What happened? Is something wrong?” Kent moved close to her and held her cheeks in concern.
“I’m sorry… I’m really sorry. I should have stopped my sect people from poisoning you. That day, I saw you before making an attack. I’m an evil woman. Because of me, you got poisoned two times.” Maya spoke in a stammer while crying like a little baby. ƒreewebɳovel.com
Trying to console her, Kent moved very close to her and held onto her head as she leaned on his shoulder. While Maya is sobbing like a little kid, Kent tried to say that it was not her mistake.
It took a long time for him to convince Maya to stop sobbing. But she continued to lean on Kent’s shoulder. “Maya, I really wonder why you became part of the poison clan. While you are so concerned about people, the princess of the poison clan killed more than 1200 disciples of the Eternal Sun sect without any concern.” Kent said while thinking about his drunkard master, who spent his life in misery.
Maya, who is resting on Kent’s shoulder, suddenly leaned back and stared at Kent with a serious look. “That’s not my mother who did it. It’s my damn father who killed those disciples of the Eternal Sun Sect. My mother would never do that type of thing.” Maya uttered in a serious tone while staring at Kent.
Kent felt a bomb exploding in his brain after hearing her words. It took him a long time to understand that the lady before him is the daughter of the poison clan princess.
“You mean your father did everything while your mother kept in the dark?” Didn’t your mother find out later? I heard the poison clan princess loved elder Porus. Isn’t she angry?” Kent asked with a doubtful gaze.
“My mom knew it before he even made an attack on the rising sun peak.” Maya replied while staring at Kent.
“What?! Then why didn’t she stop it?” Kent questioned with a dumbfounded gaze.
“She can’t. In fact, no one can stop my father, the current patriarch of the poison clan. He holds everyone’s life in the poison sect, including mine. If anyone dares to go against him, they will be dead.” Maya spoke with gritted teeth.
Kent did not understand the meaning of her words. “What do you mean, he holds everyone’s life? Is there any forbidden art?” Kent asked while staring at Maya’s frustrated face.
“No, it’s not a forbidden art. Before my grandfather died, he married my mother to the next best man who could lead the poison clan. During the wedding night festival, my father mixed a strange poison in the food.
After consuming the poison, people need to consume an antidote every month. Otherwise, they will die in a painful way. My father took control of the entire sect, including my mother and every strong man in the sect, with the help of that poison.
Only he knew how to concoct an elixir cure for that poison. The poison has different effects on different people. After witnessing a few heartbreaking deaths, people never dared to question my father.
To spread the name of the Poison clan, he targeted the rising sun peak. My mother pleaded with him by all means, but that cruel bastard killed all the disciples without any mercy. To protect me, my mother became obedient to him.”
Maya explained everything without leaving any details. Her fists clenched in anger while narrating the true story behind the tragic deaths of 1200 disciples of Rising Sun Peak.
