The Medallion

When Rocky returned to the hall, Lena, Sabina and Lucilla were laughing and talking, putting aside the crisis they had gone through to the back of their heads. The entire hall was filled with their chirps. Rocky smiled and remembered the saying—"Two is company, three is a crowd."

"Basil! Where is Erica?" Lena walked up to him and wrapped her hand around his intimately as soon as she saw him come in.

"She's gone," Rocky replied.

Sheridan coughed from beside them. "Please behave yourself, Your Royal Highness! There are people coming and going. Aren't you worried that people will find out?"

"I don't care! Lucilla abandoned the chief position of the Cao Clan for him. Why can't I do the same? I'll stay with Basil from now on. I am no longer the Witch!" Lena replied casually. To her, nothing was more important than being with Rocky now. Although she was the Witch of the Holy Dragon Empire, she couldn't restrain her feelings for Rocky after having gone through so many ups and downs with him.

"If you refuse to take up your position as the Witch, I'm afraid I'll be seen as a sinner of the Holy Dragon Empire." Rocky shook his head and waved his hand to refuse her idea.

"Basil is right. The chief of the Cao Clan is by no means the same as being the Witch. Please think carefully before you act, Lena," Lucilla said in a sisterly tone, smiling at her.

"You are right, but if it weren't for me, Basil wouldn't have experienced so many setbacks and hardships. It's all my fault," Lena said, still blaming herself for what she had done. If she had forgiven him back then, everything that followed would never have happened, and Basil wouldn't have had to suffer through so many narrow escapes. Yet, he had risked his life again to save her. She didn't want to waste any more time staying away from him.

"That has nothing to do with you. It was all Alston's fault. Please don't blame yourself, Your Royal Highness," Sabina comforted. Her beautiful eyes turned cold as she thought of what Alston had done. Even though he was dead, Sabina still couldn't restrain her hatred for him.

I hurt you. That was our fate. We need to move on since we're all safe and sound now. Don't worry about the past anymore,"

It was the spiritual master of the Dragon Master Clan who had helped Alston in defeating him, and the same one who had taken Alston's soul in the end.
