The Medallion

"What?!" Elvis was also stunned. If that information brought a horrified look on the face of the chief of the second largest clan, it must be something alarming. Of course, anyone would be scared out of their wits when they found out that the murderer of Prince Basil was his own brother, the current acting emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire.

"At that time, Alston was worried that Prince Basil would threaten his position as the emperor's heir, so he tried everything to get rid of Basil. He did many evil things, things that you may not have even heard of in your entire life, to frame Basil when Basil was the Commander in Chief of the Crimson Dragon Group. But Basil managed to resolve every problem one by one. So, to get rid of him once and for all, Alston told the whereabouts of Basil's army to the Timber Deity Empire and this led to his capture. They threatened him with our lives, so Basil decided to temporarily betray our empire to save all of us. The thought of it still makes me tremble. Prince Basil was captured and escorted to the Timber Deity Empire. However, on the way to the capital of the Timber Deity Empire, Alston attacked the escorting troops with his men and killed all the soldiers. He almost killed Prince Basil too." Sabina listed Alston's unforgivable crimes one by one.

"If you are indeed telling the truth that Alston did all these things, then this is completely terrifying! But, Sabina, you saw Prince Basil die with your own eyes, didn't you?" Elvis asked. He was taking deep breaths to calm himself down. The truth was too awful to believe. He needed to take the information slowly since there were lots of things that he couldn't wrap his head around.

"The disappearance of Prince Basil was just an illusion," Sabina briefly explained.

"I was rescued by a mysterious master. I still have not found out who it is until now. But whoever it was, I guess it did not want others to know that I am still alive. So, it deliberately made an illusion for Sabina to see. She believed it, and then all of you believed what she thought she had seen," Rocky explained clearly.

"Oh, then that makes so much sense to me. Indeed, every cloud has a silver lining!" Elvis nodded at Rocky's explanation.

"Father, now that you know the truth that Prince Basil is still alive and that Alston is a horrifyingly sinister and despicable man, can our clan support Prince Basil now?" Sabina asked seriously as she fixed her eyes at his father.
