Growing Poison
The little girl was surprised to see Dan. For a moment she thought that some ghost was making sound but now after looking at Dan, she was sure, that he was some strong person who was hiding somewhere.
The Queen wasn't that surprised but was a bit shaken for sure.
Dan was super worried right now after hearing what Rex said. He was so baffled that he wanted to double-check if what he heard was true.
"Did you just say that she is poisoned?", he asked.
Rex nodded his head.
"But how can that be? She looks perfectly fine, no?", Dan asked.
"Ha…"
"Of course, she would be fine, after all, the princess has been absorbing all your poisons since the day she was born.", Rex said.
"Since the day she was born?", the Queen asked with surprise.
"Yes.", Rex nodded his head.
"She might have started absorbing the poison unintentionally but it was so often that it became a habit of her body."
