Chapter 108 - The Curse (2)

"Then what happened?" asked Euess that Mrs Adler was right again The curse happened and it was caused by King Jared's past

Poor children, Es who all died as the result of the curse They were all innocent but had to suffer such gri had no choice at all because at that ti also couldn't reject his son's bride when they arrived at the palace because nant I was my parents' first child Maybe that's why I survived until I become an adult The curse had not been cast when nant with me," Mars explained

"So who cast the curse?" asked Emmelyn in a choked voice "Is it Lady Marielle?"

Mars nodded "My father and his family did not know that Lady Marielle's Godmother was a very powerful witch When ement, Lady Marielle was really hurt She soon committed suicide"

"It was the darkest day in my parents' life My father didn'tthat soirl would be his wife However, after he fell in love, he knew he couldn't marry a woman he didn't love"

"Besidesno e the reality He could not possibly bring back the dead The witch cauised herself as a guest at the palace My father threw a celebration to announce the birth of his heir"

"In front of everyone, the witch cursed me, a newborn baby She said that I will never be happy She also further said I would not be able to touch women and my family line will die with me After that, she cursed my mother's womb, so that all the children born to her would die a horrible death"

"After casting the curse, she disappeared My father tried to search the entire country and asked her to break the curse, but even 27 years later, as you knoe haven't succeeded"

"The next day, all the women who touched me at the party died There was an uproar in the palace and ,e Everyone as present at the party and knew of the witch's curse was ordered to keep this a secret Otherwise, they would be sentenced to death for treason"

"My father had spies all over the country so heon His spies would catch anyone who divulged the secret and my father would kill them"

Emmelyn shuddered at Mars's explanation She knew that's what King Jared was known as His reputation out there was horrible

He was known as the cruel and ruthless king, and his bad reputation was passed on to his son as often referred to as the devil incarnate himself

However, now that she had heard Mars' story, E Jared did that

Of course, as a father, he just wanted to protect his child If everyone found out about the curse, there would be unrest ae of that fact

They would know that the crown prince of Draec Kingdom would not be able to touch women and have children, so the survival of the throne would be threatened

Certainly, this would have an impact on the stability of the country and would pose the risk of a power struggle

"So what happened after that?" Emmelyn asked attentively

"Since that day, rew up as a sickly child My mother orried every day that I wouldn't live to see the next sunrise Those were really difficult years That's why my family trusts Doctor Vitas so much He was always loyal Every day he would assistfor their weak son Until finally I can slowly be healthy and grow up to adulthood," said Mars "I never have any more health problems once I beco voice, "Unfortunately, all the children after me were either stillborn or died in infancy My mother was devastated She felt that it was her fault If it weren't for hermy fatherher children would not have suffered the witch's curse"

Emmelyn understood why this talk was so hard for Mars The man carried the heavy burden alone as his father's successor Moreover, coupled with the expansion of their kingdoer country than what his father had

If he had siblings, even if they were girls, that responsibility could be shared King Jared could find a good husband for Mars's younger sister and the two of the Draec

In fact, it was possible that Mars could hand over the throne to his younger sister and her husband to beco and queen of Draec, while he could live in freedoo on adventures and see the world
