The villain's side of the novel

Chapter 111 Zina's Visit 2



"Do you know what their goal was?" Fray asked, looking at Zina, who was in a very upset mood.

"I-I don't know. As You know, the North Castle used to be one of my biggest supporters, and I liked to believe that they wanted to help me get revenge, but now I realize that wasn't true. But I don't know what is their plan exactly," Zina said in a low voice, looking down in shame.

"..." Fray looked at Zina's sad face with a calm expression. Fray knows that what Zina did is very stupid, but he truly can't judge her.

She lost his father, her servants, her friends, her supporters, and her position and even became the target of bullying to all the residents of the royal palace. She's just like Fray struggling to survive in complete loneliness. Even the shrewdest human being would struggle to maintain his common sense in these circumstances and Fray is capable of understanding that fact very well, so he didn't find himself able to judge Zina's stupid actions.

(But why would those people want the power of the law of war?) Fray thought puzzled as he tried to combine the information from the novel with the information he got at the event to try to understand the situation.

In the novel, Luke's team was somehow able to stop the first and third sacrifices, but the curse was very complex and as it involved a lot of variables, including the second sacrifice, which Luke's team couldn't stop, and the formation that was much deeper than it seemed, as it didn't just control the rituals of the sacrifice, it actually was performing its own unique ritual, which at that time meant it was four rituals, not three

Formation pieces is a science similar to the rune science that Fray discovered, it is a method that converts magic spells that only experienced magicians can manipulate into weapons that anyone can use in their original power one time in a form of a paper formation, and these formations usually need a lot of rare materials to produce and maintain In a special paper, which makes it very expensive in the market

Unlike runes, formations cannot be used on weapons, and not all skills can be converted into formations. Only magical spells can be converted into formations, but the aspect that distinguishes them from rune science is that unlike rune science, which cannot fully display the power of skill, formations can hold magical spells with all Their power or perhaps even stronger if the necessary conditions are fulfilled, in addition to that, by manipulating different spells, the magician can make a unique combination that merges the power of all those spells to make a spell that is more distinctive and powerful.

(Note: There's actually a special ranks for the Formation pieces)

But the Formation that was used in that curse was on another level. Not only was it controlling all aspects of the curse without any outside help, which made the angel unable to find the cause of the curse, but it was also performing another ritual and it was even capable of turning Ferritt into a clone of the war general, which is the most powerful title the law of war can bestow. But due to her abnormal power, even Ferritt who was in charge of it couldn't control it

Fray does not know exactly what their goal was with this curse, did they really want to kill everyone present in the party as they promised Zina or they only wanted to obtain the power of war generals? But whatever their goal was, it Failed in the original novel as when the countdown ended in the original novel, unexpectedly for even those responsible for the curse, suddenly, a wave of dark energy spread throughout Morial City, that cursed energy wave turned a large number of the humans who can't use energy into ferocious zombies, Its sole purpose is to prey on humans. But that incident did not affect the city of Morial alone, even after the disappearance of the wave, it left remnants of the cursed energy in the air, which spread throughout the continent, transforming humans into predatory monsters without brains.

The human continent suffered great turmoil due to this catastrophe that lasted for more than a year when finally humans discovered the weaknesses of that cursed energy, which was the rare light magic, which finally enabled them to clean the human continent of these fearsome creatures.

Zina, interrupting Fray's thoughts, raised her head and with a stuttering expression said, "Mr. Fray, I want to get the support of the Prada family again."

"..." Fray without saying anything, looked at Zina's face with a cold expression waiting to hear her next words

"I know what you're thinking. I can't restore my previous power and even if I get your support, I can't become the next queen. But I promise you, if I get the support of the parada family, I will be able to persuade other forces to join me. Although I cannot become the direct heiress, I will be able to gain a place in the kingdom's court then you can use me to get benefits, or I can even help you to take down the throne. In short, I will be the best spy you can have in the royal palace, and I will be loyal to the Prada family, and all I want in return It is for you to help me gather enough power to take my revenge, after all I'm sure you also don't like the royal family " Zina said with a low expression, barley maintain eye contact with Fray.

"Do you really think you can be useful to me?" Fray asked in a deep voice as he looked at Zina with an emotionless expression.

"I-I..." Zina muttered in a hoarse voice, unable to give Fray a proper answer

"You can't..," Fray said coldly

"I know I'm weak now but..." Zina said

But interrupting Zina's words, Fray said in a cold voice, "Yes, you are weak, and not just because of your fighting strength."

"…" Zina.

"You're not stupid, you know what I'm talking about.." Fray said in an emotionless voice as he looked at Zina's face.

Old Zina was not only strong in combat, but she was also very strong mentally as well. At a certain time, she was an exact copy of Fray, a cold and strong personality who did not tolerate anyone who crossed her way. Her strong personality had impressed even Fray himself. But now she has become a pathetic character who is being bullied and deceived by everyone, she can't even gather her strength to look into Fray's face directly, and Zina of course acknowledges that, and realizes that this is what Fray meant by his words.

"..." With many complex thoughts in her head, Zina looked at Fray's face with a blank expression, unable to find suitable words

"The Prada family does not take weak people," Fray said in a cold voice before getting up from his chair and walking back to his desk.

"..." Zina looked at Fray's back, then suddenly, after a certain thought came to her head, she stood firmly from his place and said in a serious voice, "Well, I will change. I will become as strong as I was before. Give me just one week and I will prove it to you."

After hearing Zina's words without reacting, Fray made his way to his office only after he sat down in his chair. He looked at Zina's determined expression and said, "Alright, you have a week. If you convince me that you are worth the investment, the Prada family will support you."
