Rise of the Fallen Son-in-law Chapter 92
Fiona turned to look at him, her expression unreadable. "Why do you ask?" she finished, her voice smooth and nonchalant.Leo knew she was playing a game, but he didn't know what the rules were. "It's just that you've been spending a lot of time with your father, and I'm curious as to what you've been discussing," he said, choosing his words carefully. "I know you're a shrewd strategist, and I'm sure you're always thinking a few steps ahead. But I'd like to know what those steps are.""Do you not trust me, my love?" asked Fiona, a hint of playfulness in her tone. "I assure you, I have the best interests of our kingdoms at heart. I would never do anything to jeopardize our safety or security."Leo studied her for a moment, searching for any sign of deceit. But her face was like a mask, and he couldn't tell what she was truly thinking. "I trust you with my life," he said at last. "But I'd be remiss if I didn't ask the question. You must understand my concern."Fiona's silence spoke volum

The other huntresses looked at Talia, waiting for her nod of approval before they showed Leo and his companions to their tent. Nicklaus was having a hard time keeping Valor under control, as the griffin's nose was twitching with the scent of the food laid out on the mat. The huntresses exchanged amused glances, clearly amused by the sight of Nicklaus struggling to control his griffin."Come, Valor," Nicklaus said, his voice firm but gentle. "We must be polite guests." Valor let out a low growl, but allowed himself to be led away from the food....The ladies had been laughing and joking with Cedric, enjoying his easygoing manner and quick wit. But then, as if on cue, they all fell silent, their faces growing serious. They glanced nervously at Talia, and then filed out of the room without a word. Cedric was left feeling puzzled and a little concerned. He faced Talia and he jumped."I'm sorry, Talia," Cedric said, his voice strained. "I know this is difficult, but we can't let our perso

But then he heard a yelp from Cedric and his concentration was broken. The shot went wide, and the target got away. Frustrated, he turned to look at Cedric, ready to give him a piece of his mind.Cedric was crumpled on the ground, clutching his leg and moaning in pain.As Leo looked down at Cedric, he realized something was amiss. Concerned, he knelt down and examined Cedric's leg, looking for the source of the pain."Did you sprain your ankle?" he asked, gently probing Cedric's leg."I think so...oh, oh dear. It's just a false alarm." "FALSE ALARM?!" Leo roared, his face turning red with anger. "You had me thinking you were seriously injured, and it was all just a stupid prank?!" He couldn't believe what he was hearing. Cedric had really gone too far this time. Leo felt like he could explode with rage. Leo looked at Gianna with a mix of admiration and annoyance. On the one hand, he was impressed by her hunting skills. Three kills out of seven was no easy feat. But on the other hand

"Hold on a second, Fiona. I think we need to start this whole hunt over. Cedric's distraction affected the outcome of the game, and it wouldn't be fair to declare a winner based on that."Cedric felt his face flush with embarrassment. He hadn't meant to cause such a commotion, and now he had made things more complicated than they needed to be. He was already dreading the next three days of ...hunting, knowing that he would have to work extra hard to redeem himself. And worst of all, he would have to face the disappointment of his friend Leo, who had worked so hard to win the hunt. He wished he could take back his actions, but it was too late for that now. All he could do was try to make things right.Gianna, ever the voice of reason, stepped in. "I think Talia is right. It's only fair to start over and give everyone a second chance." She looked at Cedric, her expression kind but firm. "You included, Ced."With a collective sigh of resignation, Leo and Gianna set off into the forest on

Talia's gaze lingered on Franklin for a moment, and she could feel his eyes on her. She wondered what he was thinking, and whether he was afraid of her. But she also noticed that Markus and the others didn't seem to be afraid of him. In fact, they seemed quite at ease in his presence. It was a curious situation, and Franklin couldn't help but wonder what it all meant. But he kept his thoughts to himself, not wanting to stir up any trouble."Well, hello everyone," Talia said, breaking the tension with a smile. "It's good to be working with you."Franklin watched as the party got into full swing, with people dancing and laughing. It was a lively and festive atmosphere, but he couldn't help but feel a bit isolated from it all. No one seemed to want to approach him, and he wondered if it was because they were intimidated by his appearance. He was, after all, a cursed vampire. But he was still a person, with feelings and emotions. He just wanted to be a part of the fun, but he wasn't sure

Talia drew a crossbow from her cloak, much to Franklin's amazement. She aimed the crossbow at the imps, her hands steady and her expression fierce."Stay back!" she cried."You really brought a crossbow to a party?" Franklin said, raising an eyebrow. "A bit excessive, don't you think?"Talia smiled, her eyes glinting mischievously. "I always come prepared, Coppernight. You never know when you might need to defend yourself.""At a dance party? That's a bit paranoid, even for a warrior.""Indeed!" Nicklaus exclaimed, brandishing his sword. "And what kind of a warrior doesn't bring a weapon to a party?" He flashed a mischievous grin at Franklin, who rolled his eyes."You're both ridiculous," Juniper said, her plantlike tendrils swirling around her. "But I must admit, I'm glad to have a few warriors on my side right now."As the group prepared to defend themselves against the imps, the doors of the ballroom burst open. A swarm of imps rushed in, their faces twisted into wicked grins.Wit

"Listen closely, for I am about to tell you a tale of a man named Onyxheart," Lucille said, her voice rich and melodic. "Once, he was a kind and compassionate man, but that all changed when he came across the powerstone."As Lucille spoke, the shadowy figure seemed to come to life, his movements becoming more fluid and lifelike. The group leaned in closer, eager to hear the storyIn exchange for the wish, he was forced to serve the powerstone, and was tasked with spreading joy and happiness to others. But the more joy he spread, the more his own heart grew cold and bitter. He began to resent the powerstone, and the life that he had been given.Years passed, and the powerstone's power began to fade.

And so, Dahlia left her position as head advisor, and set out with Franklin and the other women.Franklin's reluctance to confront Diablo was rooted in his painful past. Though he had experienced tragedy before, he had never faced anything like this. He knew that by facing Diablo, he could be putting others in danger. But he also knew that by running, he would be allowing Diablo to continue to oppress others. So, with Talia's hand in his, he took a deep breath and resolved to do what was right, even if it was hard.Talia, sensing his hesitation, looked him in the eye and said, "We will make it through this, together. You are not alone, and we will face this challenge together."With Talia's hand in his, Franklin felt a surge of comfort and strength. He looked down at her hand, tanned from the sun, and thought about how different it looked from his own, pale and cold from the long months he had spent hiding from Diablo. He squeezed her hand, feeling the warmth of her touch, and a smil
