Chapter 217: Proposition

However, Valentin's laughter halted when Rosalind suddenly revealed a dagger. Valentin jumped up and quickly took a few steps back. Surprisingly, the table and tea seat stayed rooted in the snow.

"You that" A cursed weapon! Why was she where did it come from?

"There is a disease in the south. It has something to do with curses and the Lux Family cannot heal it. It is becoming a pandemic."

"What?"

"If you have been in the North for so long, then I am guessing you do not know what has been happening in the South. I suggest you send someone to confirm."

"And what does that have to do with us?" he asked.

"I can heal all curses," Rosie said. The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

"Impossible."

"I can show you. I think Captain"

"Don't you dare touch them!" Valentin yelled, his eyes narrowed at Rosie. For some reason, he had a bad feeling about this woman. How could she claim something so unbelievable? Her existence alone could topple the seven empires' beliefs and

"You wanted to use this to defeat them?" he frowned. "Aren't you just putting yourself in danger?"

"Isn't that why I wanted to work with His Grace and you?"

"You" She wanted protection.

"In return, I will give you what you want, the destruction of the Seven Families."

"What is there to like? Chaos and war are not something that everyone could win."

"But it would certainly shake the Empires," Rosalind said. "Besides, they would not have the time to wage wars against us."

"Us?" he lifted an eyebrow as he took one of her candied fruit.

"Us. You and your people." Rosalind said with confidence.

"It seems that the little bird is becoming bolder and bolder each day."

That made Rosalind laugh. Who told him that she was just a little bird?

She snorted. "Perhaps this little bird will devour you one day, Your Grace."
