Her Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 976 Chapter 976 The Westhaven envoys first looked at Javier, then at Sebastian. In their hearts, they were inclined to trust Javier as he had treated Lisandra for many years and was undeniably loyal. His long-standing dedication earned him their trust.
However, Sebastian's medical skills were also exceptional, and his reputation was highly regarded even in Westhaven.
Winona translated Javier's words, and Sebastian withdrew his hand from Lisandra's wrist.
He turned to Winona and said, "Tell them-it's poison." "We can understand you just fine. There's no need to translate," Garrick quickly interjected.

"So, tell us, what kind of poison is it?" asked Garrick.
Sebastian glanced at Carissa. At that moment, she recalled the case from Brightmoor District-the woman who had been infected by Soulgrip Threadworms. That frail woman had grown immensely strong, even going into a violent frenzy.
However, that was different. That woman had been controlled, whereas Lisandra had slipped into a deep unconsciousness. So, Carissa didn't dare to make a conclusion from that.
On the other hand, Javier stuck firmly to his opinion, explaining, "Her Highness has always been weak, and she has been suffering from persistent headaches for years. Now, with her blood circulation blocked and the pressure in her head building, it's likely that there's swelling or a tumor in her brain. My diagnosis can't be wrong.
Winona relayed this to Sebastian, who shook his head.
11 "There's no swelling in her brain,” he said. "The blood flow is indeed obstructed, but that's because there's a poisonous worm in her brain. The reason I call it poison is because it is, in fact, poison. But unlike traditional poison, it doesn't show typical signs. It doesn't manifest in the heart rate, but it disrupts the mind and intensifies headaches. If this poisonous worm stays in her head for too long, it could be fatal.” "Impossible!" Penny clutched her handkerchief, her eyes filled with disbelief.
She switched to Stellish and spat angrily at Sebastian, "What poisonous worm? Ridiculous! And to claim it could endanger Her Highness' life-you're a quack, not a renowned physician. Preposterous!" Sebastian had seen countless people in his time, so he immediately noticed Penny's fear of 1/2 Chapter 976 being exposed.
+25 BONUS He said nothing; instead, he calmly opened his medicine box and retrieved a small wooden case. Once he opened it, the others saw a small, black object about the size of a finger inside. It emitted a faint, mysterious fragrance Sebastian handed the small object to Javier, then turned to Winona. "Have him light this in front of Grand Princess Lisandra. That should prove whether I'm telling the truth or not." Winona translated, and Javier took the object, sniffing it. Though he had seen many things in his time, he couldn't recognize the item in his hand. He merely thought that the scent was refreshing and soothing.
"What kind of incense is this?" he asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere was no need for translation. Sebastian understood the question and replied, "This is a medicinal herb soaked in a special solution. It's designed specifically to combat the Soulgrip Threadworms. What Grand Princess Lisandra has been afflicted with is Threadworm Toxin. Those infected by it can be controlled by the person who inflicted it.
"The reason Her Highness fell unconscious is that her body is fighting against the control, unwilling to submit. The chance of successfully resisting is slim. In my lifetime, I've only seen one person manage it, and it was someone with an exceptionally strong will. Alas, the result was death. Falling unconscious is only the first step. If the threadworms aren't drawn out within 12 hours of the onset of unconsciousness, it will begin to corrode the brain, leading to death." The mention of death turned everyone's faces pale.
The color drained from Penny's face as she murmured, "Impossible... That can't be true." Her reaction caused Garrick and the others to look at her curiously.
"Penny, you keep saying it's impossible. Why are you so certain?" he asked.
"I..." Penny's eyes lingered on Lisandra, whose face was still flushed with unnatural redness. A wave of uncertainty swept through her. “I just feel... It sounds so far-fetched. A poisonous worm? I've never even heard of such a thing."
"The world is vast. There are plenty of er heard of of m things you've never lighting this can cure Her Highness, En why not try it?" Garrick replied. N
Penny hesitated, still conflicted. "We can't be sure if what he's saying is what he's saying s true. What if lighting this thing is the En real poison?"
