The Medallion

The calm smile on Laney's face wavered a little, but she stood her ground. "I know that General Marcia won't kill me. It's common-sense that people don't need to kill envoys between two fighting countries, not to mention that the two countries have already stopped fighting."

Marcia smiled appreciatively at her wit and then moved to take her overwhelming power back. She praised her sincerely, "No wonder Alyssa trusts you so much! It is not often that a normal woman, who is not even a spirit manipulator, can keep her cool in my presence. You are a very rare creature, and it would be a pity if I have to kill you. So, I suggest that you tell me everything you know. Don't test my patience, as I am sure you don't want to find out what happens when my patience runs out."

Laney didn't seem the least bit intimidated by Marcia's threat. She smiled pleasantly and took a sheath from her long sleeve, which she handed over to Marcia. "General Marcia, is this sheath familiar to you?" she asked.

Marcia only needed a single glance before recognizing that it was the Frozen Wind Dagger's sheath. She doubted her eyes for a second, so she stepped forward to get a closer look. "Where did you get this?" she asked, staring into Laney's eyes.

"Mr. Rookie gave it to me," answered Laney honestly.

"Mr. Rookie?" Marcia was confused at first because she didn't recognize the name. But suddenly, a powerful jolt passed through her body, as she connected the dots behind the name. This woman mentioned a Mr. Rookie, who must be Rocky, who was the same person as Basil. However, Rocky died a long time ago. When did he give the sheath to Laney, and why? Was there any message behind this action?

"General Marcia, I know that you must have a lot of questions running through your mind right now, but before anything else, I need you to know this: Mr. Rookie is still alive. He is safe, and he is staying in the Timber Deity Empire right now," Laney replied, her tone soft and gentle as if she was talking to an animal that was easily spooked.

in pitch at every interval. She refused to believe whatever Laney said. Rocky was dead! They even held a tribute for him. Why did this woman come all the way here to tell her a poorly thought-out lie like that? What was she, and more

Although she was speaking softly, her voice was firm and sure. She sounded like she

How could he still be alive? What on earth is Alyssa planning to do? I didn't think she was capable of cruelty such as this! Did she think that I would believe such an out and out lie?!" Marcia shouted angrily, completely losing her composure. She was not stupid enough to do this, with only a single sheath as evidence,

Her Royal Highness ordered me to stay here in the Imperial City anyway. When Mr. Rookie comes back, I will be working for him. So, maybe it won't take long for me to work with General Marcia

Laney's calm reaction reassured Marcia. She didn't look like she was hiding something. After that, she called her servants to take Laney somewhere
