LIVED TO TELL THE TALE

"I KNOCKED the young duke unconscious because I know he wouldn't trust me if I said I'll bring him to you," the old man explained. "I'm not good at expressing myself with words, so I knocked him out and brought him here to you."

Neoma observed the old man.

She could tell that he wasn't lying. Moreover, she could see that her Jasper oppa wasn't injured seriously. That was enough for her.

[I wonder why Jasper oppa is here, though.]

"Alright, Grandpa," Neoma said. "It looks like you have something important to tell me, so why don't you come with us?"

"Princess Neoma, I don't mean to question your decision, but can we really trust the old man?" Paige asked carefully. "Me and my siblings won't mind following your orders. But Your Royal Highness is about to bring a stranger to the lions' den."

She understood where the mage was coming from.
