Semua Bab REBIRTH: This time I will be a Witch!: Bab 391 - Bab 400

It did not take that long for a date to be arranged for Audrey and Diether to actually meet.A day after that conversation with Steve, Audrey already got notified by her friend that she could meet Diether by the next full moon.Then when the night of the agreed date arrived just when Audrey and Steve were on their way to meet Diether, they got intercepted by a heavily hooded man.The unknown character stood in the middle of the road, perfectly blocking their way.The moonlight shone on his figure but because of the hood that covered most of him, they could hardly see his face."I need to have a word with you, Andrew."The stranger said and surprisingly enough the other party sounded like a woman.Her soothing voice has a clear ring on it, like the calming sound of the wind chimes every time it got struck by the wind.And what surprised them both, even more, was the fact that the woman did not seem to be just any other woman, she seemed to sound familiar as well!"Lady Selene???"Steve

"Can't you see it? No one can account for the validity of the Crown Prince's claim and no one knew what exactly was their reason for going out privately that day, either. I mean, does it even make sense to you?? Someone ambushed them. Yet, rather than taking the Crown Prince, they took a young general instead??? I mean, that was so pointless, not unless those bandits were complete fools that they could not differentiate the value of a crown prince over a mere general at first glance. What I am thinking is that the Crown Prince was behind all this." It took time for Audrey to process everything that Selene just told her. But when the realization finally dawned on her, she had this weird look on her face. She could not understand why would the Crown Prince would ever do that thing to her brother, to begin with. His brother had been very loyal to the royal family. Her brother had almost given them his life, his time and everything. To the point that he nearly abandoned his only siste

"Hello, my dear. We already had the pleasure to meet each other at Everything Emporium before, remember me?"Audrey's mind has been riddled with nothing but questions ever since they started talking. Their words filled her with uncertainty and so far, none of it was given a concrete answer yet. So naturally, she was quite on edge.That was why when Madam Xing strike a conversation with her out of the blue she sounded unenthusiastic."Of course, Madam Xing, you're the owner of that shop. Again, I'm sorry about the Jar of Misfortune."Truth be told, Audrey did not mean for her apology to sound less sincere than she really was. It was just that given the current situation, she was more eager to hear more about his brother than making another acquaintance."It's nothing."Madam Xing replied shortly before adding,"Your mother, Delicia, used to be a close friend of mine back when she was still teaching here at Iridos.""My mom used to be a teacher here?!"Another unexpected revelation made

"The two families must have keep an amicable relationship on the surface, for the public to see. But who was to say they don't hold a grudge against each other? Especially the King. It must have been a great blow on his pride that a monarchy like him has to curry favor from someone else." The distribution of power within the Kingdom of Corona was quite complicated because the King does not hold absolute power. The Lee Clan became almost as good as their equals in terms of standing. So it would not come as a surprise if the royal family would do something underhanded that could potentially jeopardize the Lee's. [Hmmm... That brings me back to an old concern behind the murder of the previous owner of your body, little lass. There is definitely a foul play back there. Could it be that the crown was involved? Maybe they wished to get rid of at least one young lady of the clan so that Johnson would have lesser power in the future.]

The sky was overcast when Audrey and Steve left for the meeting. So it did not came as a surprise when they encountered a heavy downpour of rain when they returned to their dorm.However, on that same night, while the rest of his roommates were already passed asleep, Steve sneaked out of their dormitory under his senior's instruction."Steve, I am sure you know that a few years ago, I left our sect under a mission, do you remember?"Diether's lips drew into a tight line as soon as he started talking, making it obvious that what he was about to discuss was of serious matter.Meanwhile, as Steve was reminded of that fateful night, the light in his eyes dimmed. But because it was dark, his senior failed to notice this change.Diether was the senior Steve looked up to as a child. So he cried silly when the other party left so suddenly."I remember I was still a little child then and the rain was pouring that night just like right now. I was in the middle of making sleep as I allowed the p
