Leonard thought about it and suddenly, thought of something.

"That brat doesn't have any aura that gives out his spiritual essence at all. That's not really weird since I've read in history books that people who do not have any attribute but can also heal although very rarely."

"Really? I haven't read that at all."

"All you do is please others instead of reading more books and I'm not wondering why you don't know about it."

The twin brothers raised one of their eyebrows. But, Lennard decided to cut the teasing and go back to the topic.

"That maybe one of the reasons why that brat is weird however, the rate of his spirit healing coupled with his knowledge on medicine is a rare ability in this continent. Add it to the fact that he is too young."

"You're saying that because of that... He has some sort of important background?"

"Exactly. How can such a young boy with an amazing ability be an ordinary young boy? It's more or less that he has someone who supports him from behind the scenes."

"Come to think of it. It's not only that he has amazing spirit healing abilities but also, he is good at fighting."

"That is why it is much better that we do not offend him. In fact, it is much better that we become friends with him."

Lennard, this time, poured his cup with tea and he drank it slowly.

"You've got a point. Also, since we were the only one who probably knew about it, we can take advantage of such thing."

"That is one of the reasons why I invited him in our kingdom in the first place."

Leonard was slowly getting the idea. But, he can't still get his mind off of what happened with Leona.

As such, Lennard wanted to explain more things to him.

"I think, Cerio partially cured Leona's condition."

Leonard's eyes got bigger. Although he had hunches, it was still surprising to learn about such incident.

"We all know how we've become desperate with Leona's condition and even almost emptied out our kingdom's resources for her. But, Cerio partially cured her when he cured the poison."

Leonard was all ears on Lennard and he didn't speak because he knew how important such incident is.

"At first I thought that maybe it was a coincidence. Maybe, Cerio's spirit healing abilities were really amazing but base on what he said to Leona... I think it was intentional that he didn't fully cure her."

"But, why? Don't tell me that Cerio really made everything up and needed something from our kingdom? By curing Leona, we will go down on our knees and ask him in return of whatever he wants?"

"I'm also not that sure about his reasons but all I can say is that, if Leona ever gets cured, it will be a huge news."

"Why?"

"Leona can see pure spiritual essences."

Leonar couldn't help but stand up from his seat. He, too, knew of how huge this event was. Having their little sister, named as useless princess but suddenly got the ability to see pure spiritual essences... Wouldn't that cause a huge uproar and all those people lining up to be married to her?

"We will be happy but if this news leak out, it would certainly bring misfortune, too."

"This is getting out of hand."

"For now, we do not know why Cerio cured Leona but partially curing her was I think, the best solution."

"You think?"

"Leona wouldn't be marrying the third prince of this kingdom anymore if father learns about this. All of us, siblings, don't want to be associated with this kingdom, right?"

"Wait. Did you tell father?"

"Not yet. I only sent a message to someone whom we can trust. I want to know more information regarding Cerio and Gil. At the same time, I want to get close to them. All for our kingdom's future..." -tbc

A/N: To make up for my long absence, I decided to not work and write chapters instead... Just kidding! :D

Actually, I didn't really go to work this week because I have health issues. I went for a medical check-up and the medical technologist and doctor have different opinions on my health condition. It's making me confuse and all. Anyway, I feel like puking water right now. It's the first time in my life that I wanted to puke water because I'm drinking lots of it to the point that I get full only because of water!!! ;A;
