Chapter 490 The rumors

?Glacia straightened her posture when she sensed the pressure radiating from the Queen, who had gotten serious.

In contrast to the old Queen, who wore a light green robe with little to no design, Glacia's attire consisted of a flowing blue gown adorned with intricate silver embroidery.

'This old hag... she is still so strong even though she used almost ninety percent of her lifespan to help the tree of fate to clean the dark energy seeping through its branches.'

Glacia furrowed her brows when the Queen's coral-colored eyes, which usually remained soft, focused sharply on her body.

"My Queen, that girl is fine. I have visited her a few times. She and the other people who came with her are under the town head's care. So, there's no need to worry."

Glacia's expression soured when she remembered the brown-haired man who willingly jumped into the portal to come with her, but that infuriating man ran off to who knows where the moment he arrived in this land. He even left behind his girlfriend to vanish into thin air.

'And here I thought he would be useful as his eyes contained spirituality.'

The Queen closed her eyes for a few seconds and clasped her hands together, placing them beneath her chin to support her head before she let out a faint smile and opened her eyes that shone slightly in the dimly lit room.

"Dear... it seems you didn't hear the rumors. Well, it's to be expected because you are always busy doing whatever you want." 𝖋𝔯𝔢𝔢𝖜𝖊𝖇𝖓𝔬𝔳𝖊𝔩.𝖈𝖔𝖒

Glacia's furrowed brow deepened.

"What rumors?"

The Queen chuckled, her wrinkled face showed her amusement.

"That girl... I heard the tree of fate is favoring her for some reason because while she was fighting under the tree with another one of our race, the tree branches helped her so she wouldn't fall down. Almost every maid working for me is gossiping about this, and when I heard it, I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. Just how long has it been since the tree of fate showed its interest in another..."

In a flash, Glacia's expression changed, and she gazed at the older woman across from her with eyes full of disbelief, thinking that the Queen was joking. The tree of fate has its own consciousness, but it had been a long time since it showed interest in someone else.

The last person the tree of fate showed interest in was Glacia's master, who could foresee the future with the vast amount of spiritual energy in her body. That's why she couldn't believe this blatant lie. The rumors were probably baseless!

But when Glacia looked into the Queen's eyes, which held no deception, realization dawned on her, and she understood that the Queen wasn't joking! No, the Queen never joked in the first place.

"How...? No, why! Why would the tree show interest in someone who is not even from this planet-!"

Her words were cut off when the Queen shook her head and stood up.

"I hope you check on that girl regularly... I believe there was a reason why your master left behind such a strange promise to bring an unknown girl to this planet. Maybe she already saw this far..."

Glacia clenched her fists and nodded. She would go and keep an eye on that girl from now on, but the Queen's next words made her blink twice with surprise.

"That girl... I sensed a mark on her body when I saw her for the first time, but even though I knew the mark was used to locate her location, I didn't remove it because the mark was created by someone very weak. So, I hope you haven't made an enemy of someone strong while bringing her here."

The Queen stared at the middle-aged elven woman who had turned silent. After a long minute of silence, Glacia let out a chuckle as the image of a silver-haired man flashed through her eyes.

'Don't tell me...? Haha, did he place the mark on Yue's body?'

She gazed at the Queen.

"My Queen, there's no need to worry because the planet I brought Yue from didn't have any exceptionally strong individuals. Moreover, I believe I know who put a mark on her body, but he's just an ordinary young man, nothing to be concerned about."

The Queen nodded with a sigh. It's not like she could leave the planet just to find out what more trouble Glacia has caused. The light green robe on her body fluttered as she took a moment to think about the recent events happening on their planet.

She did not think much about the man Glacia talked about because she knew he wasn't strong, as the mark on Yue's body barely held any strength.

Glacia glanced at the Queen one last time and stood up to leave the room because things had become much more interesting for her. She wanted to go and see for herself if the tree of fate had truly started showing interest in Yue, not to mention the mark... She didn't sense it, and if the Queen hadn't informed her about it today, she would have never discovered it.

'Interesting... that silver-haired human, I knew he had something peculiar in his body. I should have checked it; now the curiosity is killing me... I won't remove the mark because I want to see him again. I wonder if he would come to find Yue since he seemed quite desperate to stop me when I took her with me. Well, I suppose it would take a long time, considering his strength wasn't even divine rank.'

She opened the door, but before she could step out of the room, the Queen stopped her. Glacia paused and looked back only to see a serious expression on the Queen's face as the latter started speaking.
