Although Marigold anticipated a deadly battle with the royal family, unexpectedly, within a week, news arrived of the death of King Philip. Marigold was momentarily filled with dread, as the Gudu venom within her body had not been removed. It is said that this toxin rapidly spreads after the death of someone with a lower-level Gudu venom, causing those poisoned to perish together. However, she managed to survive unscathed.
Hence, it is highly probable that the poison was not administered personally by Philip. But the trail of clues abruptly ends there.
Marigold fell into a deep melancholy due to this, while Brian was even more fearful and anxious. However, the good news was that Ash Kingdom was the stronghold of Gudu venom. There were many doctors well-versed in Gudu venom there.
