Chapter 260: His Plan (1)

Justin didn’t know if he could tell Iris that Lord Xavier had eradicated the Demon Race.

However, Justin didn’t know; without his explanation, Iris knew Xavier was responsible for the Demon Race’s disappearance from the middle realm.

Iris was deep in thought, trying to piece together everything she heard from Lucian and Xavier. It didn’t take long for her to realize something that could make her blood run cold; she was too shocked by what she had thought.

’Oh my God... X-Xavier wiped out the Demon race from the middle realm because of me!?’

Just thinking about this could give her a headache, and her hand feels cold. Now she understands why Xiu punished Xavier and sent him to live in this lower realm.

Knowing this fact is enough to make Iris feel sorry for Xavier. Because of her fault, Xavier had to endure his punishment — being exiled to this lower realm for a long time.

’I’m sorry, Xavier...’ Iris whispered to herself. She couldn’t wait for his return; she wanted to meet him to apologize.

Justin glanced at Iris and could see she was deep in thought. He worries she would be disappointed in him because he didn’t tell her the whole story.

"Iris, I suggest you ask Lord Xavier about it. Apologies, I can’t tell you—"

"I understand, Justin. Don’t worry," Iris smiled at him. However, another wave of curiosity engulfed her. She turned her gaze towards the scenery in the distance. At the same time, she was letting out a long, loud sigh.

’Why do I go to that forbidden land? Who killed me?’ Countless questions now fill her mind. And it starts to give her a headache.

Even though she doesn’t fully know what happened in the past, Iris still blames herself. She is upset about triggering a war between Xavier and the Demon race.

...

Justin doubted Iris was okay; when he looked at her, he could see her face looking dark, like dark clouds looming behind her.

"Iris? Are you alright?" Justin asked in worry. Because he didn’t get any reaction from Iris, he stood from his seat. He placed his hand on her forehead, but he saw her glaring at him before he could touch her. His hand freezes in the air.

"Sorry, I just wanted to check if you were okay. I asked you several times, but you ignored me..." Justin grinned as he withdrew his hand and ran his fingers through his own hair.

When Justin saw Iris still ignoring him, he continued. "Iris, you can ask me if you still need any other information about the middle realm. I probably know what you want to ask; as long as it’s unrelated to Lord Xavier, I’ll tell you."

She looked at him for a while before saying, "You said a few times you visited the Grayland Kingdom, but how could you never meet Princess Iris, I mean... the royal family?"

Suddenly, Justin’s laugh echoed. "Hahaha... Did you think the Royal family, like princesses, could meet anyone randomly? Of course not. Ugh, well... I never see her, but what I hear, she is so beautiful even my lord, fall—"

"—your lord Xavier fell in love with Princess Iris for the first time he saw her, right!?" Iris continues Justin’s words with a light chuckle while holding herself, not exposing her true identity.

"Ugh, Iris... Sorry... I mean, don’t be jealous, okay!? It’s a very, very long story. I believe that Lord Xavier has already forgotten about that woman by now. He is only in love with you now. Believe me!" Justin explained, afraid Iris would feel jealous and angry with his lord.

’Justin Fucking Darkwood!! Can you stop telling her about it?’ Justin can’t help but scold himself in his heart while turning his gaze to the forest.

He wanted to disappear from this place because the longer he stayed there, the more he would tell her everything.

Silently, he took another deep sigh. However, he suddenly thinks about something.

’What the hell.... she could control my mind!?’ Justin’s body shuddered with that thought.

Since meeting her, Justin couldn’t tell if Iris had surpassed his own strength. At first, he doubted that an ordinary human could not be more potent than him. But after discovering that Iris wasn’t an average human; she came from the same realm as him, he started to reconsider his doubts. One day, Iris will definitely surpass his powers.

After a while, no one spoke. They stared at the scenery while lost in their own thoughts. But, after a while, Justin could feel Xavier’s aura approaching.

He turned to look at Iris, "Lord Xavier, he returns..."

"I know. I will return to the main house now. Bye—" Iris said and vanished, leaving Justin sitting alone in his place.

Justin’s face turned dark instantly, knowing he would soon be in trouble for saying so many things to Iris. He must be away from this place for at least a few days.

"Looks like I need to visit Killian," Justin said as he stood up from the chair and disappeared.

A thin black mist appeared near Justin’s chair when he vanished. The mist lingered there briefly before moving slowly and entering Eric’s house. It entered the house through the gap under the door.

At the same time, in a dim room, Xyronos opened his eyes.

His hands clenched tightly to suppress the anger in his chest when he heard Iris and Justin’s conversation.

Slowly, he rose from his seat, walking towards the glass window overlooking the forest in the distance.

Not long after, there was a knocking sound from the door.

"Enter!" Xyronos said coldly.

Sebastian entered the room in a hurry. He stopped a few steps behind Xyronos.

"Your Grace," Sebastian’s voice sounded shaky and rushed. "You won’t believe what I found out, Killian Darkwood is from the middle realm, he—"

"He is that bastard’s person..." Xyronos interrupted Sebastian’s sentence as he turned to see him.

Sebastian was shocked hearing his words, "Yo-Your grace, you know about Lord Xavier!?"

Xyronos did not answer Sebastian’s question. However, the anger in his eyes made Sebastian understand that Lady Iris’s husband was indeed Xavier, their king’s enemy.

"Your grace, what is your plan?"
