337 THE JEWELED-HEART MAGES

"I AM not here to hurt my lady," Neoma said carefully and politely to the confused and scared lady. "My name is Nero de Moonasterio, the current Crown Prince of the empire."

She had to introduce herself as the Crown Prince because she was acting like one.

"Nero de Moonasterio?" the lady asked, and she looked even more confused now. "I'm afraid I don't remember that name from the Royal Family…"

Ah, right.

Tteokbokki mentioned that the lady's soul had been trapped in this tree for years.

"And as far as I know, the heir to the throne is His Imperial Highness, the Crown Prince Nicholas."

Her eyes widened in shock when she recognized that name.

[Nicholas de Moonasterio is my Papa Boss's father!]

Aka, her paternal grandfather– the cruel tyrant who had done atrocities during his reign, and one of those unspeakable acts was hunting the Silver Fox Clan for their Fox's Marbles.
