Fated For Lycan's Luna (Chloe and Blake) novel Chapter 190

Chloe

“Made by Uncle Gauss?” My entire body trembled when I heard his name and the words that Blake said.

In my hands, the very poison used by my uncle to kill Dad.

The very poison I was not able to successfully save my father from. And even after his death and after five years of relentlessly searching, there was still no clue as to what could counter this poison at all.

This very poison was one of the two poisons I promised myself to defeat, the other being the one that infected me and Aurora.

“Chloe… you good?” Arthur called out softly as the two of them noticed that I fell in a daze the moment I heard the information from Blake.

“No, I’m fine… it’s just that, I did not expect that I would have to encounter this poison when I am still unable to find out how to counter it.” For the first time in the last five years, I openly told someone that I was unable to guarantee that I could deal with this poison in front of me.

“Don’t worry, we’ll help you. Esha is also a good child you taught… three heads are better than one aren’t they?” Arthur tried to comfort me.

“Arthur is right… take your time to study the poison… As soon as I recover, I’ll join Caleb on the attack missions so that we won’t delay our plans…” Blake continued.

“Wait, aren’t you going back to the Blood Hound camp? How about the ‘Alpha Sabre’ position?” Arthur was shocked as he looked at Blake with a questioning look.

“Well… things were getting weird inside. I could not help but suspect that either Alpha Kain or Lyra was doubting my identity as Alpha Sabre. As such, I talked with the real Alpha Sabre and we had to push forward our plans to exchange personas.” Blake explained.

Hearing this, I took a deep breath and held back what I wanted to say. Of all things that Blake needed right now was peace so that he could heal. Moreover, since it was Alpha Sabre who took the initiative to step in with the plan, there’s nothing more to do but to do what I am best at.

“Alright… just promise me you will not insist on joining the missions until you fully recover…” I said while helplessly looking at Blake.

Even when there were a myriad of words I wanted to say, seeing his hurt state made me utterly helpless at the moment. As a doctor, and as someone who loves Blake, I knew that this was not the time to nag him with a lot of things he was being careless about.

“I promise… I surely do…” Seeing the look on my face, it seemed like Blake heard my thoughts and answered seriously.

“We’ll talk later…” I bent down and planted a kiss on his forehead. Then I took the medicine with me to study in the lab.

“I’ll let you handle all of these vials,” I said I sorted the poison vials on the table and transferred those whose canisters were cracked so that we could preserve it well.

“Teacher, will you really let me handle this much?” Esha’s eyes widened as her hands trembled as if so afraid to touch the vials I had just given.

“Yes… in two years you will become an adult… It’s not wrong for you to be acquainted with these things. These poisons belong to the third to fourth tier of our poison hierarchy so it would be too dangerous for you…”

“However the challenge here is to figure them out before the potion fully oxidizes… As you can see, these poisons arrived here with cracked vessels so their efficacy dwindles as we speak.” I explained.

“I understand the teacher! Thank you for trusting me!” Esha jumped in delight and started to fix the protective gear that she had on her body.

Since she would be handling unfamiliar potions for the very first time, I still went with her to guide her in the properties of the poisons. Without having to explain so much, she already managed to identify which poisons were to be ingested, diffused in the air, and potent through skin contact.

When I saw that she pretty much knew her thing, I let her do what she wanted, to try to decode the poison.

Now joining me was Arthur, and two of us stared at the revolting poison vial from Uncle Gauss… We looked at each other and nodded, knowing that we had to help each other to figure out how to counter the poison in front of us!
