The Medallion

"Judging by your look, Alyssa must have told you the same thing, right?" Marcia asked when she saw the strange expression on Rocky's face. She gently smiled as if telling him that she exactly knew what was going on in his mind.

"Wait, do you mean..." The words just slipped right out of his tongue. It struck him that the two women had so much in common. He had to admit that he was surprised to hear it from Marcia, and that it was written all over his face.

"Well, it seems that my guess is right. Now I understand why Alyssa let you live after you were captured and treated you as distinguished guest when you were in the Timber Deity Empire. It's because you are the only person in the world who can help her remove the curse, the curse preventing her from being a real spiritual race." The way Alyssa behaved around Rocky was not like the cruel and proud princess that Marcia knew so well. Marcia guessed why Alyssa was acting so weird when she learned how Rocky was received in the Timber Deity Empire.

"But I don't understand. Why are you also looking for me?" Rocky asked. He couldn't be the one Marcia was looking for, even if he was indeed the one Alyssa needed.

"That's an easy question to answer. Since you can remove her curse, then you can do the same to my curse. Because although it involves different spiritual race bloodlines, her curse and mine are the same kind to a certain extent. We are both products of the human and spiritual race. Our curse is the same. However, I don't think she has told you how to remove the curse," Marcia said as she eyed Rocky with a skeptical look.

"She didn't tell me. But I don't think she actually knows how. But you know it, right? Is that what you're telling me?" Rocky understood the meaning behind Marcia's words immediately.

If it weren't for her, you would have fallen into a troublesome situation indeed if you returned to the Holy Dragon Empire alone, because you wouldn't be a match for Alston when you're totally unprepared," Marcia said straightforwardly.
