The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 108

Chapter 108: MAKING A LOT OF MONEY

If the earth magic stone could be used for defense and the water magic stone could be used to speed up one’s healing process, then the fire magic stone could be used for welding offensive magic, while the air magic stone... there was no record of it ever having been used, since it was so rare and only one person had it, the Serafim.

Unfortunately, Iris was not a magic user and no matter how great the magic stone was; she would never be able to use them. It was a pity, since they lived surrounded by these stones.

"If only I have magical power, with a fire stone in my hand, I can use offensive magic," Iris said to herself with a sigh.

Cane frowned upon hearing that. "What do you need offensive magic for?"

"To protect myself," Iris replied truthfully.

"From what?" It was not like she was exposed to danger every time.

"You know, I am a runt. Shifters can protect themselves by shifting into their beasts and magic users could use their magical abilities while healers could depend on their healing powers to be useful. I feel like I am very useless for not being able to do anything," she said truthfully, there was a hint of bitterness in her voice.

Thinking back on it, Iris really felt incompetent in everything and the mocking words that Mason had always thrown at her rang in her ears again. She was useless, a disgrace for the family, a scourge in their eyes.

"You can find magic stones," Cane said in a matter of fact tone, which made Iris blink her eyes.

"Is that a useful ability?" She didn’t think it was something that she could be proud of.

"You can make a lot of money out of it," he said lightly. His overbearing demeanor from earlier had disappeared completely now.

Iris thought about it for a while. Well, making a lot of money didn’t sound bad either...

The next day, they woke up very early, because they needed to leave before anyone could notice the alpha from the Howling Wolf pack and his small party were there.

But before that, Arthur and the old man, named Clad came to see him, just like how Cane had ordered them to do.

Iris was standing next to the carriage, while Redmond was nagging at her because she went away last night without telling him anything. His reasoning was Cane could just sell her in one of the brothels here, which seemed really ridiculous to Iris.

"Why would he sell me?" She frowned, feeling tired already to see him reproaching her.

"You don’t know what is inside that man’s head, he can do something unthinkable, you know."

Iris pursed her lips. "You don’t have any right to say that when you went away to indulge yourself in the brothels last night," she said in a matter of fact tone, which left the shifter tongue tied.

"W- Who said that?" His eyes grew bigger.

But, of course, Iris wouldn’t sell Ethan out.

Redmond kept trying to defend himself and justify what he was busy doing last night, though Iris didn’t accuse him of anything. She was actually paying more attention to Cane, who was talking to Arthur and Clad.

They were talking about another matter, apparently about a few problems in the Red Claw pack, but she didn’t actually understand what it was about, because Cane shifted his body and she couldn’t read his lips anymore, while the other two were just only listening to him attentively.

However, on the fifth day, after they left the Crystal Moon pack, they met with two trolls, which destroyed their rations and made the rest of their journey difficult. _{freewebnσvel.cѳm}
