At the same time, Mrs. Ira and her maid arrived at the cave-like structure that was present at the island which was too isolated from the real castle.

With a jar in Mrs. Ira's hand which was covered with a red cloth, both of them made their way deeper into the island.

"Are you sure that this is the place where we will find her?" Mrs. Ira asked to confirm to which the maid nodded her head, "This is what I have been told as well. We only need to take a few steps now…"

As she said this, both the ladies came into a large cave-like structure that was made of nothing but rocks. It was huge, but at the same time, it was just in the center of the island.

The entire darkness that enveloped the cave was deeper than any silence in the present. Aura dropped with the pressure as the air became thick which only creates roaming around can be heard.

Growls were no distant thing that entered into their ears.

With their back already sweating, biting her lower Lip, Mrs. Ira took a step forward, "Let's us go. This is...for my family."

"As per the second lady says..'' the maid bowed and followed her bluntly, despite her heart pounding in her ribs.

At last, they came to the cave when their eyes fell on one lady with her white hair sitting around the fire that ignited in the middle. Her eyes were closed when she chanted something under her breath.

Coming closer to Mrs. Ira's ears, the maid told her, "She's the one who has the problem of everything you are facing, a second lady."

"Then let us approach her."

As her eyes shone in determination, Mrs. Ira walked inside the cave to sit in front of the lady who was still under the spell of her chanting.

"W-We want your help." Mrs. Ira spoke to get the old lady out of her daze to find her slowly opening her eyes to face them. The eyes were filled with nothing but absolute darkness in them, making chills pass down their spines.

It was hard to even resist the fear that crawled under their skin for unknown reasons, "Second lady Ira of the Suzania Empire….in my small cave?"

"I want something strong enough to destroy my enemies. And now, you are the only helping hand whom I can trust upon." Ira answered while keeping her grip tightened around the jar.

The old lady wore black-colored clothes before she intensively stared at Mrs. Ira. Not only that, she took some sand from her corner before she entered the same and into the pit of fire in front of her.

"You want my help… hmm…let me see what I can do for you."

"I'm willing to pay the price whatever you demand. Whether it be jewels or something else, anything can be arranged but I want my wish to be fulfilled no matter what happens.." Mrs. Ira told her with confidence when the maid only sat with her head low.

As expected, the old lady smirked when she found the person in front of her was already hungry for her fame. "Your target is to save your daughter and to spite the emperor's daughter if I'm not wrong?"

Mrs. Ira's confident gaze crossed through the middle air where she felt air already being stuck out her.

How come this lady knows where she hasn't even told her about her inferior motive? It was absurd in her eyes but the darkness was taking a toll on their head.

Knowingly, this is the best reason one could give for. She is surely the lady who practices pure dark magic

When the old lady noted how Mrs. Ira was dumbstruck, her smirk widened, "Don't be so surprised. There Is the reason why people don't like coming here.."

"But let me tell you, it isn't easy to change the fates. One has to sacrifice something…in order to have the power in their hands. The old tales are proof that whosoever has become powerful and reached the heights, only got that after they gave up over something, so would you be in the exchange for someone…"

Hearing this, the maid felt goosebumps on her skin. The deep voice added with the night creatures that held outside the cave was making both of them feel the aligned alertness.

Yet, Mrs. Ira's eyes sparkling with the glow that can't be missed even for a minor second. Taking a deep breath she asked, "A sacrifice in the form of?"

"A life. Someone's life will be at stake to change someone else's fate."

Hearing this, the maid's heartbeat already startled in the middle when her wide eyes were fixed at her second lady to see that there was no change in her expressions. She seemed calm, with her relaxed mind to find that it was already expected by her.

Taking a deep breath, the second lady closed her eyes to recall everything that had happened with her in her past life. All she went through just merely because of her husband, or the first lady…who left behind two children of hers.

She was decreased to literally nothing but her heart was now craving to have her way.

Find something to make her daughter's life and make herself feel valuable in everyone's glances. And even if this costs someone's life…she is willing to put that at stake.

At last, the Second lady's eyes opened with a sparkle in them. "Someone's life…means anybody?"

The old lady simply nodded her head and waited for the lady to offer something. Without further due, the Second lady took a deep breath to bring all of the courage that was present in her heart to say.

"I..I'm willing to compromise the concubine's life as well as the child in her stomach.'' The words were a big blow to the maid who didn't hold the power to even raise her head anymore.

The chills down her spine increased when she recalled the concubine's face who was with the second man's child….

A huge grin appeared on the old lady's face where she added more sand into the fire which intensified it even more than before. "Very well! Now…. whose fate do you wish to change?"

Mrs. Ira's raised chin with her mind covering with nothing but darkness evolved to say, "The Crowned Princess of Suzania Kingdom, Princess Alice."
