Chapter 70: Chapter 70 – Raven Takes a Decision

After giving Jules a tour of the island, the royal children returned to the imperial palace just in time for lunch.

King Jaren was waiting eagerly for them – almost as excited as Azar about Mana's new magical crown!

The family had a nice lunch together, and then Azar went off with his Grandpapa and Jules went off to IMARI to see Bella. Mana and Raven were left to their own devices.

"I was thinking of sending some pastries to your parents," Mana told Raven.

Raven blinked. "Why?" he asked.

"To soften them up," Mana said bluntly. "But I won't do anything you don't want me to," she added quickly. "So, what I'd like to do is discuss with you on our strategy to deal with your parents."

Raven was silent for a moment, chewing on his lower lip. "Do you…like them?" he asked nervously.
