"B-But Lady Jade said that she will make me the head maid if I can kill Swan!"
"And you believe that?" Aria sighed. "I'm sorry, Alice. If only I still had my holy power, I could kill Swan with ease. But she is a powerful dark witch. If even a Saintess like me couldn't do anything to her, do you think a simple poison could?"
The answer was obviously no.
Alice was already so deep into the hole, and she had been dedicating herself to killing Swan under Lady Jade's order. She didn't think that Lady Jade would deceive her, but Lady Jade was much more influential and powerful than she was. If she planned to make Alice the scapegoat, then Alice could only blame herself for falling into the trap.
Princess Aria's words made her realize the severity of her situation, and she began to feel scared.
