953: Popular Grandpa Lin

Popular Grandpa Lin

'Finally, the moment is here.'0

Ajax had already planned everything about what he had to say. So, he was waiting for those words from Princess Daphne.

"Your contracted spirit beast has awakened powerful blood and its purity is nearing 100 percent. However, her body is still young and can't withstand the pressure of her own bloodline. So, she fell unconscious."

Without wasting any time, Ajax started his explanation in which almost everything is a plain white lie except for the bloodline part.

'What?'

Princess Daphne was excited at first; however, when she heard the later words of Ajax, she became anxious and looked at the spirit crane with a helpless look on her face.

"So, didn't you already treat her? Or will she have any problems in the future?"

Controlling her emotions, Princess Daphne asked Ajax even when she knew that the spirit crane was still not healed completely.

"Sorry to say that but I am not capable of curing your contracted spirit beast. For now, I just suppressed her blood and I don't think my treatment will not last more than a day."

While saying those words, Ajax put on a sad look on his face.

'What are you saying?'

Princess Daphne's words didn't come out of her throat as she fell to the ground.

"I am sorry."

Ajax shook his head before saying, "I think it will be a good thing you inform your father about your contracted spirit beast's condition. He might find a way to cure her."

Ajax didn't actively say that he would help; instead, he intentionally suggested Princess Daphne ask for help from her father.

He was very sure that Princess Daphne would not ask her father for help as it was not a secret that Princess Daphne is a rebellious girl who didn't listen to her father.

However, after finding out the true nature of King Stephen and seeing how caring Princess Daphne was towards those who helped her, Ajax felt there was a reason why she didn't listen to her father.

"My father? He will not help me and if he finds out about the powerful bloodline of Little Blue, it will let his contracted spirit beast devour her. So, I can't ask him."

Princess Daphne looked at Ajax for a moment before rejecting that suggestion because if she asks her father, instead of good, more harm would happen to her little blue.

"If you….."

"But, I can ask Grandpa Lin. He is more powerful than the father. Moreover, he was the one who gave me the egg from which 'Little blue' came. So, I think he will help me."

Just when Ajax was about to say his final words of his plan, Princess Daphne interrupted his words and talked about some Grandpa Lin.

'What the hell? This is not how it should go. Where the hell did this Grandpa Lin come from?'

After hearing her words, Ajax was cursing Grandpa Lin for messing up his plan because, in his original calculations, there was space for King Stephen but not for this so-called Grandpa Lin.

"He is someone who took care of me from birth. Moreover, he even brought me to the inheritance ground too. I think you have seen him too."

Seeing the confused look on her Ajax's face, Princess Daphne informed him about Grandpa Lin.

'That old man?'

Finally, Ajax remembered a thin old man with a long white beard and thought, 'Why is he still alive? Why can't he just die?'

...

A few moments ago,

In one of the rooms of the royal palace.

'I think it's about time little Daphne came out of the Sacred Pool. I wonder how much she progressed in her cultivation.'

Grandpa Lin was sitting on his huge bed in a crossed-legged position and opened his eyes all of a sudden before thinking about Princess Daphne.

After checking the time, Grandpa Lin stood up and walked out of his room.

'Achoo'

Just as he walked out of his room, Grandpa Lin sneezed very loudly which made all the servants working in the royal palace jump in fright.

'It looks like someone is thinking about it. I wonder who it is.'

Rubbing his nose with his arm, Grandpa Lin wondered in his head.

'Nevermind. These days, I am becoming more and more popular among the young generations. Looking at how powerful I sneezed just now, he must be really praising me a lot. Anyway, I need to stay low-key; otherwise, I might die from sneezing because of my popularity.'

With that thought in his head, Grandpa Lin let out a self-satisfactory chuckle before walking towards the old wall.

....

Inside the secret realm.

'If she took the spirit crane to that old man, he might find out that there is nothing wrong with the spirit crane and it will become a problem.'

Ajax became a little anxious when he heard Princess Daphne's words which made him curse the old man Lin; however, he controlled his emotions before thinking about what he should do right now.

'Let it be, I am directly asking her.'

Ajax didn't have much time to waste because the moment they were kicked out of the secret realm, he could not trick Princess Daphne anymore. So, he decided to take the risk.

"Princess Daphne, I think I can help you in solving your contracted spirit beast's condition."

Soon, he asked princess Daphne and before she could even give him a reply, he continued, "Even though I am not very proficient in healing, I know you could help you. So, if you could entrust me with your spirit beast, I will take care of everything and bring it back to you as soon as possible."

In a single go, Ajax said everything he wanted to say, making Princess Daphne raise her brows.

"Huh? Who are you talking about?"

Princess Daphne didn't directly reject Ajax's suggestion; instead, she asked about the person who could save the spirit crane.
