Chapter 526 THE PURPOSE OF VISIT


    Veronica''s heart was pounding. She didn''t know if he was going to say something that could start a war. She kept her expression under control and stayed, "Unlike what you think of me, I''m simply a human. I''m not someone who has the power to grant a wish. "However, if it''s within my humane capability, I will surely try. If you don''t mind me asking… what wishes, Your Majesty?"


    The Elven King stared at her. Amused by her answer, he remarked, "It is surely within your capability. I know how humane you are and what''s possible and impossible by humans."


    ''Is he upset? When I said those words, I didn''t mean to insult his brain,'' Veronica thought.


    Before she could say something, the Elven King continued, "I have not been angered by you if that''s what you are worried about."


    "…"


    Veronica was speechless.


    The Elven King said, "Anyway, what I want I will ask youter on. Let''s talk about you. As much as I''m delighted that you havee here, I want to know the purpose of your visit. Surely, you didn''te here for a leisure visit."


    Veronica replied, "You heard correctly, Your Majesty. I havee here to read the scrolls of the Forbidden Section." The other Elven Lords attentively listened to the conversation between their king and the blessed child. When they heard her reason for visiting this ce, they didn''t makemotion. They simply exchanged meaningful nces.


    "So I have heard," the Elven King replied. "There is a reason I gave you the key as a congrattory gift."


    "I thank you from the bottom of my heart." Veronica didn''t lie. She really meant when she thanked him.


    "Nheless," the Elven King continued, "I want to know the true purpose of visiting the Forbidden Section of the library."


    ''So, Urs didn''t tell him my purpose for the visit,'' she thought. ''That''s a wise decision. I don''t think anyone will like the idea of bringing the dead back.''


    "I want to know the reason why people are interested in me," she tactfully answered. "It simply cannot be my healing power. There should be more to it.


    "Moreover, I''ve turned into a dragon and I have no control over my power. When I came back to my senses, I couldn''t remember anything. "I need to know what else I can do and how I can control my powers. If only I have enough knowledge about myself then I know how to save myself from my enemy."


    Her reasons seemed logical. The Elven Lords didn''t suspect her. On the contrary, they were inwardly satisfied with her reason for reading the books.


    However, King Erestor Culnámo didn''t seem to be too impressed by what she just said. He told her, "What you have said is admirable. Nheless, you don''t need the Forbidden Section to learn more about you."


    ''Why is he so persistent? Did he realize that I''m lying?'' Veronica pondered.


    She said, "I don''t know if you have misunderstood something, Your Majesty. I did say that I want to know whatever information there is about my existence. "It doesn''t matter what it is. I need to know what I am capable of and why humans want to use me."


    King Erestor Culnámo didn''t pester her about books. He changed the subject.


    He inquired, "You know the danger of living in the Human Realm and you still want to live there?"


    She answered, "Yes, that''s my home and I feel at ease to live in the ce where I have my loved ones."


    King Erestor Culnámo raised his chin.


    "With so much danger. Are you prepared for the consequences?"


    Veronica was slightly irritated by the question. However, she didn''t lose control of her emotions.


    She voiced her opinion, "With all due respect, Your Majesty, I don''t see the problem. Whenever I had any problem, my friends and I dealt with it together. "Not even once I sought manpower from you. If you ask me, it''s the Elves who got involved in the Human Realm in the first ce. "If it wasn''t for them interfering with mynd, I wouldn''t have known that they existed."


    The Elven Lords who heard her defense cleared their throats. Urs also lowered his gaze, not being able to look at her.


    King Erestor Culnámo squinted his sharp eyes and stared at her for a couple of seconds.


    Afterward, he said, "I understand your viewpoint. Very well. You can gain as much knowledge as you want. You are the descendent of the Great Dragon. You are wee to our library at any time."


    "Thank you, Your Majesty."


    After the audience with the Elven King had ended, Urs and Veronica came out of the Imperial Tree.


    Veronica looked around and found no one around. Only after that did she wipe her forehead.


    "Why do I feel so hot?" sheined.


    "You did better than I expected. It''s not easy to stay calm and confront my father," Urs was full of praise.


    "You are giving me way too much credit. Believe me, the pressure I felt when I was in front of him my legs would have shaken up if I wasn''t prepared. Ahh…"


    "What happened?"


    "I forgot to mention about Ovior. Ipletely forgot about it! How could I?!"


    As Veronicamented, Urs patted her back. "We believe, whatever happens, it''s all for good. Maybe it''s for the best," heforted her.


    "Are you sure about that?" Veronica looked at him.


    Urs only smiled.


    "Sure about what?"


    They heard a familiar annoying voice.


    Veronica turned around and confronted the person.


    "Look who it is," she said.


    "You don''t seem happy to see me," the personmented.


    "Should I be?" Veronica raised an eyebrow while asking. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    "I thought we were friends!" The person eximed.


    ''As if!'' She wanted to scream what her inner voice was saying. "Why are you here, Dastan?" she asked.


    "This is my home. Of course I would be here. Congrattions on being a dragon, Veronica. And please, call me Aeolus here."


    "I don''t want to," Veronica immediately refused.


    Dastan stared at her for a while and then asked, "Is it just me or you have be feistier?"
