As the sunlight gleamed in-between the trees, she noticed the hostage prince's tattered back.
'Deric, huh? Poor kid, his own kingdom is treating him like this,' she thought, shaking her head.
Ambai peered at his dark face. A small shimmer originated on his face. 'Hmm, what is that?' she peered at his face carefully.
At the same time, the hostage turned towards her.
Ambai gasped, seeing his forehead. There was a huge black 'One'.
It was the numbers again. But this time it was different, it looked malicious. With dark smoke flowing out of it.
With all the clues she had collected over the months she was here, she discovered that only the spies are the ones with the number on their forehead.
At first it was those five soldiers, they had the numbers from seven to eleven. Then there was Kaden with number Five, and there was also Healer Gaius with number two.
All of them ended up being a spy of Lafta. and in one way or another tried to harm her.
