As the receiving end of Tyrael’s “righteous scolding”, Angor only replied in a cold tone, “Yes, I’m not a professional when it comes to medicines. But are you sure the patients can be saved by medicine?”
No one spoke since they didn’t really know what to say. There was something fishy about the “Shadowless” illness. According to normal senses, shadows should exist whenever there was light. The doctors weren’t really convinced when they regarded the strange matter as an ordinary epidemic.
But they didn’t have another choice. They couldn’t possibly tell people “there’s a demon hunting for shadows”. One wrong move could break down the hard-earned peace in Water Grasse. This was why Leonrick demanded that the patients were kept in quarantine and that no outsiders were allowed inside.
Sometimes, maintaining peace and order was achieved at the cost of someone’s loss.
Although Leonrick wasn’t sure about this anymore, especially since his own daughter was on “the losing end”.
“Besides, are you sure your ‘conference’ can save Margot? Oh, don’t make me laugh.”
With that, Angor turned away.
“Hey, Leonrick… Was that, a wizard?” She looked at Leonrick.
Leonrick froze, while Hedrick also looked their way. Hedrick had never been to the court library before, but he did hear rumors about wizards.
Bad rumors.
“It’s not your business,” Leonrick said.
“Come on, I want to know,” Caroline insisted. “He is, right? Or you wouldn’t have acted like that. Is he the culprit behind the outbreak?”
“Lady Caroline!” Leonrick bellowed. “Please stick to your post. As for your concern, I should tell you that Mister Mask just arrived at Water Grasse a week ago. He’s not related.”
“Wizards are stone-hearted, right? Maybe he has arrived here a long time ago, but we only see him recently.”
“I said he’s not behind this, and it’s what it is! Besides, I may have a clue now…”
Caroline lowered her head a little while she maintained her gaze at Leonrick. “So you admitted it? We were talking to a wizard?”
Without waiting for an answer, Caroline walked to Tyrael’s bed and moaned, “You stubborn knucklehead. We know we have nothing to help the sick, and you still yelled at someone you shouldn’t offend, for nothing… Hey, Leonrick? Is Tyrael alright?”
Leonrick shook his head. “I do not know. Mister Mask said it was only a ‘tiny punishment’. I guess it’s not lethal.”
“Umhmm. So the legends are true. I need to talk with Tyrael when he comes to. Can you tell me where the kid—Mister Mask lives? I want to apologize personally.”
Leonrick didn’t answer. He definitely couldn’t.
“Fair enough.”
Hedrick, who had been listening to them in shock, finally remembered how to speak. “I think I know why he’s the only one who can help us now. You were right, Mister Leonrick. And is Tyrael going to be okay after… that?”
Upon hearing the name of the old man again, Leonrick couldn’t help but get furious again. “Mister Mask isn’t really an acquaintance of mine, and Tyrael just… made it worse!”
“I’m sorry too,” Caroline said. “I left the meeting just to stop Tyrael. I must admit I didn’t really like that wizard and added my share of fuel to the situation.”
Leonrick shook his head again. “Enough about that. Mister Mask mentioned something about the colors of their hair and eyes, right? What does that mean? Can you take a look?”
