Rebirth Of The Duke's Daughter

Chapter 112

"Don't worry. It'll be easy." ZH kissed her head which she found herself feeling more sleepy this time as if her body was just getting lighter. It didn't take long for her to drift off with ZH smiling to see how she needed to be comfortable. It made him even happier to see that she needed him to be able to sleep and get comfy. He didn't want to leave Mila, but he still needed to handle a few situations with his people. There had been a bit of an issue with Mana Hunters that would come by taking any beasts they set their eyes upon. Beasts would come to the Zameth kingdom knowing that it was like a safe haven, but also most Mana Hunters were likely targets in the Zameth kingdom since the citizens held strong hate towards them. Mana Hunters were harshly despised in the Zameth kingdom which was why most beasts come to the Zameth kingdom to hide or rest to avoid being taken away. Slipping easily out of Mila's hold, he smiled seeing how she worried for nothing about his arm. When she fell asleep then she fell deeply asleep. It worried him instead since she had been sleeping for six years which left him concerned if she would ever wake up or not. 'Mila, don't you ever leave my side again. It has been nothing, but torture for the last few years in my life without you.' Giving her one last kiss, it was hard for him to leave her side.

Leaving the room, he met with his close comrade who looked over his duties when he wasn't there. "Theo, how is it so far?" ZH could see that from the looks of the current situation. The Mana Hunters were becoming more troublesome and arrogant now that they had gathered just about enough mana to hide their presence among the citizens.

"They've been taking things more seriously this time around. Every single time we try to have them speak out. They kill themselves before we could even start questioning them." Theo was frustrated to see that the Mana Hunters did not care about their own lives but more for their little cult or so. "It has turned far worse over the years now that they had gathered enough that they were seeking for. Why did we never stop them when we had the chance?" Theo was upset since they had the chance back then, but it would have brought up another war that could put them at a disadvantage if they were found at the weakest point.

" You know the reason why we could not at that time. huff Once you capture them then make sure you seal their mana stones and their movement without giving them any advantage. We cannot delay this any longer since we have given them too much time to achieve what they want. It would be best that we use a truth serum now." ZH didn't think that they would have to go that far to use the truth serum which would drive the person insane after using it once.

"Is there no other option?" Theo hated to use the truth serum, but it was their last resort.

"This may be the only option left. We need to know what they are planning. They've been growing more and more in numbers." ZH soon left looking back to his room and hoping that Mila wouldn't get into any trouble while he was gone for a few days. "Let's start."

'This is going to be an endless war for sure.' Theo knew that even though there was no actual war, the investigation was enough to make it last like it was.

"Father, there's a couple with their kid here saying that they know you and mother." Philbert looked to Emmett and Sara who were confused since they did not know if a couple probably lost their way and were seeking help. Both got up going outside to see Tim and Thelma with a little girl who held both features of her parents.

"Thelma!" Sara rushed ahead hugging Thelma who smiled hugging her back in return. "You finally came to visit." Sara couldn't remember the last time that they met or spoke to one another.

"It's been so long." Thelma smiled, seeing how Sara had cut her hair shorter. "You've cut your hair."

"Yeah, I decided to make a few changes to myself." Sara did not know if she looked weird or not. 'I probably don't match this haircut.' Grabbing onto the ends of her hair, she did not know if she should cut it again after it started to grow longer.
