The Devil's Cursed Witch novel Chapter 114

Leeora was a bit taken aback, “Lady Cornelia–”

Cornelia looked at her pointedly. “I understand you’re concerned, but that child is carrying dangerous powers inside her. You cannot deny this truth.”

Leeora let out a sigh. “I understand. Do you mean we need to inform her about our discovery?”

“In due time. There is no need to rush, but I believe she deserves to know.” Cornelia softened her expression. She then looked back at Draven. “I have one more thing to say. I have a theory about why I sensed the insignia of the deity of fire when Your Majesty was marking her.”

“What is it?” Draven finally asked.

“We have predicted before that there is a strong seal that is suppressing her powers. When Your Majesty marked Ember, it probably triggered the magic of the seal. The mating bond is one of the strongest kinds–if not the strongest–binding magic in existence, as it belonged to the category of the soul.

“Dragons have the most powerful magic due to their bloodline, and thus the pact created between His Majesty and his mate is bound to dominate any other magical restrictions about the soul. Meaning, it is highly likely that the seal on Ember’s soul will be eventually destroyed by the magic of the mating bond.

“Considering His Majesty has merely marked Ember–the bond has been created but the bond is not yet complete– I fear once that bond is complete, the seal will break entirely and her powers will be freed. This worries me.”

Leeora felt ominous seeing the frown on the witch’s face. “Since the power belongs to her, then shouldn’t we support her in using it? We have the Fire Fae, the Sun Elves and the Valley Elves, and we also have the shapeshifters who are descendants of fire-attributed divine beasts like the Flaming Apes and Nine-Tailed Foxes…” _{freeωebnovēl.c૦m}

“I am not talking about her ability to control it,” Cornelia answered. “As someone who lives in Agartha,I agree with you that we have many people who can help us teach her but…have you ever wondered why she’s sealed in the first place?”

Leeora swallowed the other things she wanted to say upon hearing that question.

(O)???

Cornelia didn’t wait for her to reply. “Since her powers are locked intentionally then there must be a strong reason for it. The one who had sealed her must be a powerful being himself. Perhaps, a deity himself sealed her. I have merely sensed a bit of her powers and there is no question that kind of fire is destructive. I believe such powers are best kept suppressed. I suggest we shall not go against the one who had sealed her–”

A cold voice cut in.

“What if the one who sealed her powers had ill intentions? What if he was an enemy of hers? What if her powers are a threat to them? What if it’s them who are evil?” Draven asked without pause.
