Chapter 798 The True and False Princess
Chapter 798 The True and False Princess
"hiss!!!"
Just as the evil prince said goodbye to the evil queen and boarded the airship to the Kingdom of the Witches with his gloomy-looking silly son, the man with the thrush mask who was far away in the Kingdom of the Witches felt his hair stand on end and he stood up from his chair.
"Ok?"
Because the man in the thrush mask acted too suddenly, the people in the room were startled by the violent movement and cast doubtful glances at him. The priest who was informing the ritual precautions subconsciously stopped talking and said in confusion:
"Your Highness?"
However, the man in the thrush mask did not pay attention to the middle-aged priest's question at this time, but instinctively looked in a certain direction. In his eyes that were clearer than crystal, a trace of fear unconsciously surged.
Here he comes! He actually came!
Damn Li... Damn God of Cookery! Can't he just stay at home? Why does he come wherever I am? He... He is not targeting me, is he? ! ! !
Your Highness, what happened?
Noticing that the man in the thrush mask had a strange look on his face, as if he was vaguely afraid of something, the middle-aged priest's expression changed slightly, and he hurried over to check on the condition of "Princess Catelyn".
However, before he could get close, the "Princess Catelyn" who had a strange expression just now calmed down again, waved her hand to indicate that she was fine, and then she reached out and gently lifted the hem of her skirt to bow slightly to everyone, and explained with an apologetic look in her eyes:
"I'm sorry, I just suddenly remembered something and my reaction was a little exaggerated... Sorry, Priest Victor, please continue!"
"All right……"
Although he felt that Princess Catelyn's behavior just now did not seem like she had remembered something important, but rather like she was frightened by something, since the princess herself had already given an explanation, the middle-aged priest had to suppress his doubts, walked back to the center of the hall, and continued to speak:
"Everyone, according to the response we have received so far, envoys from eight kingdoms will come to watch the ceremony for Her Highness Catelyn to succeed the Great Witch King. This will undoubtedly be a very difficult test for our Witch Country..."
As the middle-aged priest returned to the normal preaching, "Princess Catelyn" sat back in her chair and couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, then reached out to adjust the mask on her face.
I was almost exposed... Why am I the one playing the role of the princess? Where's the woman with the black cat? She should be the one playing the role of the fake princess!
'She has been silent.'
Just when Thrush couldn't help but complain in his heart, the snake-shaped pendant on his...or her earring shook slightly, and a familiar hoarse voice came into Thrush's ears.
'Ever since she took the nightcap from that adult at the last meeting, Black Cat has completely lost contact with the club. No matter how I call her, she doesn't respond. Even [Law Book] can't contact her.'
So since she, who was originally scheduled to play the role of the princess, is not here, I have to play the role of the princess, right?
After understanding why he became a fake princess through White Snake's answer, the man in the thrush mask couldn't help but close his legs in disdain and assumed a "lady sitting" posture, trying his best to maintain the persona of "Princess Catelyn", and then said with displeasure:
"So where's the black cat man? I can't play a woman, find her and exchange identities with me!"
'I'm afraid that won't work.'
The white snake-shaped earrings shook, and the white snake voice firmly refused:
“That adult’s ability cannot be cancelled. Once the [Bedtime Story] officially begins, the roles of all the people in the story can no longer be changed. Everything can only stop when the story ends.
Besides, you'd better not wait for Black Cat anymore. If I'm not mistaken, there may be something wrong with Black Cat. She may have betrayed us... She may not even be on our side in the first place. "'Ah?'
After hearing White Snake's judgment, the man in the thrush mask was confused. He then reached out and touched his earrings, and asked repeatedly:
"Black Cat is a traitor? How do you know? Isn't she able to accept the summons of the Law Book? How could she be a traitor?"
"Those of us who have left our names on the Ten Clan Law Book are not the only ones who have the ability to connect to it. The Ten Clan of the Great Court can do the same. In addition to the Three Clan of the Earth, Ocean, and Sky, the Great Witch Bloodline of the Witch Country can also do this."
When explaining this, the voice in the White Snake Earrings suddenly became a little colder.
'The black cat at the beginning should be a real black cat. The name on the [Law Book] cannot be fake. But it is hard to say about the black cats that came after. I am afraid she was replaced a long time ago.
The real Princess Catelyn, whose whereabouts we could not find no matter how hard we tried, most likely had come into contact with the real Black Cat, found a way to kill her, and then through the connection between the Ten Descendants of the Great Court and the [Book of Law], quietly replaced the identity of the Black Cat and successfully infiltrated us.'
what? ! ! !
After hearing this explosive news, the man in the thrush mask was suddenly startled. His white arms in lace gloves unconsciously covered his delicate lips. Then he asked with surprise:
"Then, doesn't that mean she knows all our previous plans? Then she..."
'It's not that bad yet.'
The white snake replied indifferently:
'Even if she can take over the real Black Cat, bypass the [Law Book]'s screening, and sneak into our gathering, she still has to abide by the [Law Book]'s treaty and must not reveal our identity and plan.
Right now, the biggest danger for us due to her sneaking in is that our actions in the Priestess Kingdom are repeatedly obstructed, and we cannot find the whereabouts of the princess.
But this time, with that adult's intervention, no matter whether she is a fake black cat or a real princess, as long as she is still within the scope of [Bedtime Story], she will definitely become a dead cat!'
Okay...at least it sounds okay.
Facing the White Snake's domineering declaration of victory, "Princess Catelyn" couldn't help but lick her lips, and then asked with a little uncertainty in her heart:
"By the way, can this [Bedtime Story] you mentioned really kill the God of Cookery and the Black Cat together? What if..."
'It won't happen.'
After interrupting the thrush's skeptical questioning, the white snake answered confidently:
'Although that adult's ability has many limitations and the cost is extremely high, it has only been used less than ten times so far, but as long as the [Bedtime Story] can be successfully told, the people in the story will definitely not be able to escape! '
