DEFEANING SILENCE...

Before Leticia and the others leave the Capital, she reads the letter that came from Lady Josephine.

Suddenly, Nina appeared with a small box in her hand.

"It came along with the letter, milady."

"Really? Give it to me."

Leticia opened the small box and saw a small ruby stone shaped like a droplet. She was fascinated by how beautiful it was and had the urge to touch it.

As soon as she touched it, she felt her body rising in heat. The heat was a warm feeling. It made her eyes twinkle in surprise.

"What is it, Milady? Is something wrong?" Nina asked as soon as she saw the expression that Leticia showed.

"Oh… this!" She looked at the necklace and continued, "When I touched it, it suddenly felt warm."

"Oh! It's a mana stone, milady!"

"Ohhh…."

Leticia's eyebrows raised as she pretended to know about it. She never saw it and only learned about it from the books.
