NovelEnglishChapter 774 This particular night IV
Heliot slowly crumbled the piece of paper after reading the letter once. 'This again,' he thought. Heliot had been hearing certain memories from different people that he couldn't remember. He was aware it was because of this reversal of time that he forgot the relationships he had built in the original timeline. It was annoying, especially since his last encounter with Lilou had left an impression on him.
But now, even Florence left a letter, telling him he ordered her not to return to Karo at all costs. Why would he say that? And did she say she died? Didn't they say Florence would become the empress of the Heart's Empire, and become Rufus's wife? How would an empress die so easily?
Myriads of questions surged in Heliot's already muddled mind, and this letter was the last straw. No one knew what happened to him, and he could've died just as they claimed. But why would he die?

"Your Highness," called the knight, putting an abrupt stop to Heliot's train of thoughts. Heliot slowly snapped his eyes at the knight, frowning, furrowing his brows. "A guest is requesting an audience," said the knight the moment he met Heliot's eyes. "A guest?" Heliot's frown deepened. "At this hour? Tell them to return tomorrow."
The knight showed conflict in his eyes. "But Your Highness, the guests came from a prominent clan."
"Which family was it?"
"The request came from the Le Blac," the knight reported. "There was a woman. She said her name was Beatrice Le Blac, and she told us you will regret it if you refuse her request."
Heliot kept his frown, but hearing which clan his guests were, his displeasure was replaced with puzzlement. He pondered about it for a moment, before gazing at the knight. "Lead the way."
"Yes, Your Highness." With that being said, the knight led Heliot to the sitting room, where the guests were waiting. Stopping in front of the room after minutes of walking, the knight stepped aside to give way. "Don't let anyone know about this meeting," Heliot said, casting the knight a sidelong glance. "Yes, Your Highness." The knight bowed, already keeping this visit with the highest secrecy. The reason he personally went to the prince to report about it.
"With the king?"
"I cannot disclose their identities."

"Indeed, but as I've said, this isn't an official matter that needed to be recorded," she said, and the side of her lips curled up into a smirk. Seeing her reaction, Heliot narrowed his eyes. He got the gist of her remarks. If not for unjust elimination, what else would this woman want from him? Knowing there was a regression, and he needed an answer for himself, Heliot remained silent and waited for further details.
"Lilou Bloodfang," Beatrice dropped the name. "I heard you already met the last pureblooded Bloodfang."
"And what about her?"
"People… wants her gone," she answered without a second hesitation. "We want you to do the job."
"And why would I do that?" he laughed in ridicule, only to see Beatrice smirk. When her lips moved, dawdling her words, his pupils dilated as he unknowingly held his breath.
"Interesting, isn't it? Your Highness?" she asked, cocking her head to the side. "I bet that caught your attention."
