He Threw Away and Sold to the Devil 229

Ball The Princess & Sexrel 

“The princess could die.” 

Abril remained silent, seemingly surprised, yet not. 

Sirius suspected she had already considered it, which was why she kept the power a secret. 

Abril caressed her baby’s head and replied, “I am aware of Lissana’s power and, to be honest, it 

terrifies me in more than one sense, but that’s not the only reason I’ve kept her power a secret.” 

“I suppose the questions you wanted to ask are related to that?” 

“Yes. My mother gave her life to hide my power, but now I believe she did it not only for my father 

but also for her family.” 

“For the elves?” 

“Maya mentioned once that children born between a human and a lightbearer were considered abominations. If such a union were to happen and a baby was born, the elves would take those children to their kingdom, separating them from the human world. They are undefined creatures, neither of the Light nor of Darkness, which makes their power greater than that of a normal elf or human. If I am considered an abomination for being a half–blood, what do you think they will think of Lissana if they discover her existence?” 

“I think nothing good.” 

“Exactly. That’s why I fear for my daughter’s fate. I’m afraid that, in the future, they might try to 

separate me from her.” 

“I respect your decision to hide your daughter’s power, but if you ask for my opinion, I think Alessandro deserves to know what’s happening with his daughter.” 

“I will tell him, but this is not the best time to do it. So, could you keep this secret?” 

“I already told you I would. I won’t go back on my word.” 

“Thank you very much, Sirius.” 

“Going back to the main topic, when do you plan to journey to the Kingdom of Laios?” 

“I would like to leave tomorrow if possible, but I still have to wait for Cassian.” 

“There are some things I need to take care of before we leave, so I don’t think it’s possible to leave 

tomorrow either.” 

“I understand. Then I’ll be waiting for you here. Come back when you have sorted out your 

matters.” 

“I’ll come as soon as possible. I don’t think it will take me more than two days.” 

“Alright.”

Sirius stood up and said, “I’ll leave immediately so can prepare.” 

“Thank you very much, Sirius.” 

“You’re welcome, Abril. See you soon.” 

After Sirius left, Lissana used her wind magic to lift the curtains with a strong gust of wind. Immediately, Abril used her magic to cancel her daughter’s.. 

What worried Abril the most about leaving was the separation from her daughter. She feared that Lissana’s power might spiral out of control in her absence. 

She caressed her baby’s cheeks and said, “My little one, you must behave while I’m not here.” Abril had so many questions about her daughter’s power and what she should do to protect her, but there was no one who could answer them. She let out a deep sigh. 

“How I wish you were here, Mom.”
