Chapter 201 You are a monster Part2

Forming an astral mana core was something that was completely unheard of.

Most beasts did not even possess an affinity to the said astral energy, let alone an affinity high enough to form a mana core.

And on top of it, it was warned repeatedly in several books that there would be severe consequences if she failed.

Because of this Sylvia decided to take the help of neither her friends nor her foes.

While the former would simply worry about her, or prevent her from doing what she wanted to do and the latter wouldn't be of any help.

Sylvia took a deep breath and focused on the job at hand. Upstodatee from n(0)/ve/lbIn/.(co/m

For the next several days, she was a complete shut-in and did not even bother entertaining her tutor, Mrs. Gruger.

However, her progress wasn't too great either. She didn't feel any difference as she silently continued absorbing astral energy day in and day out.

A couple of weeks passed and one day, Sylvia heard a small commotion outside her chamber.

She opened her chamber doors and walked outside to see the entire palace corridor in a chaotic rush.

There were more guards than usual and they seemed to be walking around here and there doing various things.

Sylvia caught one of them and asked him what was going on.

"Your highness, the patriarch... Ummm..." The guard was hesitant. The old patriarch had instructed everyone to keep things confidential. So he was not allowed to say anything.

"Your highness the patriarch has issued us some orders. So we are busy." He hurriedly explained and ran away.

Sylvia frowned. "The old man has returned huh?" She silently went back to the chamber as she didn't want to disturb anyone.

They were under strict orders not to tell the little princess about anything. However, right in front of them, princess Melissa had spilled all the beans.

So they had no idea which orders to follow now. Nevertheless, they stuck to their original orders and looked away from the princess, closing the main doors of the quarters.

Sylvia stared at the blocked corridor in a daze. "He went to search for something for me and got injured?" She absentmindedly muttered under her breath.

All these days she had assumed that the old man had ignored her because of her weak affinity. She had thought that his affections had changed since she turned out to be a disappointment, unlike the other royal princes and princesses.

However, all this while he had been silently working hard for her?

She leaned on the huge doors of the quarters, placing her ear on the golden structure. She could still clearly hear the howl of a beast in pain.

Was this her grandfather's voice? Was he in so much pain because of her? Sylvia's clear blue eyes reddened and the last parts of her completely frozen heart warmed up.

She couldn't help but think about their every single interaction and how the old man had constantly been fawning over her as if she was something precious.

She had never taken those words to her heart and now she regretted it all. "I need to help him." Sylvia clenched her fists and stood rooted outside the entrance.

She paced back and forth in the long corridor, pondering what she could do to help with the situation. If he was injured, there should be a way to treat his wounds or injuries.

To begin with, she didn't even know how badly he was injured. Who could she even ask? The guards? Her father? Roman? Mrs. Gruger?

She shook her head. No, these people probably do not know what was going on or they wouldn't tell her even if they knew.

The only person who would tell her everything was probably...
