The spell failed to cast?
A bad feeling started to bloom in Kieran's heart.
Kieran's mind started spinning faster when he saw Fandral had given up muttering softly and had started to chant his spell out loud.
Obviously, the failure casting his spell was very much related to that Madam Jeanne.
She would have guessed that her own brother, King James VIII, was hiding some arrangement to defy her. After all, it was not too hard.
The king had a limited hand to play. Other than Fandral, there was almost nothing else.
The relentless pursuits from before were not purposely targeted at Kieran, but to chip off King James VIII bit by bit, forcing him to send Fandral out.
So she could kill King James VIII once and for all.
Fandral, who was the shield of King James VIII, was forced to leave his side. How could Jeanne let this opportunity to kill the king slip off her hands?
