Chapter 930: People Call Me The Ice Prince (2/2)

During their planned escape, the sea witch utilized and infused ic into the pearls in order to act both as an explosion and attack If this man took one step closer, then she'd throw it at him and then make her escape

Raphael was shocked to hear it but also felt his heart pound at those declarations

She said that she liked his for hirin

"I didn't cast any spell on you and I don't intend to harlee "So, you like et what I said," Rowena said as she clutched the pearls hard "Tellto takeyou back to Verona," said Raphael firmly

"But this is not the way that I reoon the two of us could have traveled in The Wishi+ng Meroon was close to Verona—I even told you on the ride here, so why aren't we there instead?" Rowena pointed

Raphael only wanted to bring her the least uncomfortable path back to Verona and so he had chosen the waterfall, especially because travel was not an issue for theht about it—Rowena did have every reason to e his intentionsHe didn't think about hoould appear because Raphael kneena, but in her eyes the two of them had only met now

"Please cally "I chose this place so ouldn't have to swioon"

"That's not a valid reason!"

"You just traveled froic and then back to one without it—it's a great toll on your body I do not think that you can handle swi up"

Rowena breathed hard and she realized that her lungs did burn—exhaustion rippled and coursed through her body

How theto and from different realms surprised her, but ither discoently

"We can take the other route if you wish, but if you trust me, this way is the better one and ill reach Veronabad to you, don't you think I would have done it now?"

He raised his right hand and touched the waterfall beside hied when she witnessed what he was doing

He was letting her know that it was super easy for him to freeze her to death if he wanted to hurt her But he didn't He didn't even touch Rowena just to prove his point, instead, he froze the waterfall and his own arm

"Y-you" Rowena held her breath "What are you?"

Raphael found it difficult to answer this question Rowena asked what he was, not who he was She kneas not huht he was an elf, but now she was not sure anyed "Some people call me th

e ice prince"

"So, you ARE a prince?" Rowena looked at Raphael's frozen arm intently "Does it hurt?"

Raphael blew his arain like normal Then he chuckled and shook his head "It doesn't hurt me, but it hurts other people"

He quickly added, "But I would NEVER hurt you"

Rowena bit her lip She trusted hiht Rowena a lesson for suspecting him, Raphael would have frozen her, but he didn't do such a thing He replied to all her questions and suspicions so patiently

"I know" Rowena muttered
