“So, you’re saying that taking this silver milk powder would increase my chances of successfully upgrading my bronze grade grimoire to silver grade grimoire,” Susan asked with skepticism hearing my explanation on how the silver milk powder could temporarily increase her aptitude and help her upgrade her grimoire to silver grade.

“Yes,” I nodded affirmatively.

“Are you sure? I did not want to bring it up until now, but since you brought it up, when did you create silver milk powder? When did you apply for its patent? Is it a genuine product, or are the rumors about it true? I trust you, but I know nothing about this, so forgive me if I look a little skeptical.” Susan was my exclusive manager, and since she maintained the online shop, she was pretty active on the grimoire network to check up on reviews, news, etc., about our card boutique and the person running it.

Silver Milk Powder has made a splash in the media these days. It is not new for some con man to come forward claiming that he has created the perfect solution for helping mortals with their active soul control. In regular times scandals such as this would not be worth reporting, but the Silver Milk Powder scandal was different as it had the involvement of the Southern Emperor and the Heatsend Royal family.

Even the trivial information regarding the Southern Emperor and the Royal family could become breaking news, much less a scandal involving the long searched solution for helping mortals with their active soul control. This story was bound to go viral. And it did. The questions are starting to spread on the grimoire network, asking the Royal family for an explanation.

The Royal has already explained that Silver milk Power was a hoax, and an investigation into it has proceeded. But this was not enough for netizens. They demanded more information, such as whether the Southern Emperor was part of the fraud or was she also the victim of the 17-year-old conman? If either of them were true, was it wise for the Royal family to let the current Southern continue to lead such an essential and influential role in the southern region despite her recent crucial shortcomings?

Yes, calls for annexation of the Southern Emperor title from Anna had become a trend. Not just Anna, I had become the talk of every house in the region. A 17-year-old old to con the patent, copyright, and trademark association into granting a false patent had become a juicy piece of news to turn even the most random boring gathering into a debate contest.

The Royal family had tried to suppress this news, dreading the consequence after seeing such a strong reaction from the netizens on the matters regarding the Silver Milk Powder and the involvement of the Southern Emperor. There were two reasons why the Royal family tried to suppress this news, the first being to avoid the suspicion of various forces, and the second was obviously for reducing public opinion.

If the Royal family did not try to suppress the news on the silver milk powder scandal, then the various interested forces will start thinking that the Royal family wants the news to spread and raise suspicion towards Royal’s intentions. Since the Royal family was going through all this trouble to avoid others suspecting them, they had to play their part right. Hence they acted as if they were desperately trying to sweep the dirt of their young heir under the rug. But unfortunately, the researchers of various universities and the empire were unwilling to let it slide. They wanted to make an example out of Anna because they believed she was the main culprit behind the fraud as there is no way a 17-year-old orphan from a third-rate city would con the Southern emperor.

With such a blowout on the silver milk powder scandal, there was now Susan would not have heard about the Silver Milk Powder and my involvement in it. It was already a miracle that Susan could hold it in until I brought the matter up. Her patience was admirable. Since I gave her the opportunity, Susan did not hold herself back but unloaded all the questions she wanted to ask in a single breath.

“Wow, Susan, One question at a time,” I asked Susan, not to smother me with questions and tell me to speak. I get that she is excited as she can finally ask the questions, eating her up from inside.

“Fine, are the rumors true?” Getting her chance Susan went to the jugular of the matter.

“No, they are not. Silver Milk Powder is authentic and is capable of more than it claims. This whole thing is complex. For your safety, I will spare the details. And this is also one of the main reasons why Anna wants me to move to the Royal Palace.” I skipped narrating all the boring details claiming that it was for her safety, and Susan didn’t suspect anything.

“I heard about the matter with the Duskborn family. Are you alright?” This time Susan directly reached for the heart, trying to console me if I needed any.

“Ah! Those Fockers. They have a huge debt to my parents and me. I planned to return it someday.” The Duskborn family’s involvement in this matter was unnecessary, yet they went out of their way and involved themselves in this matter.

“…” Feeling my hatred and resentment for the Duskborn family, Susan did not know how to console me because she grew up in a typical family, and this kind of situation was out of her emotional understanding.

“Is that all?” I asked Susan, seeing her get silent.

“One more thing, how did you meet the Southern Emperor? As far as I know these past few days, you never left the Sky Blossom City.” For some reason, I felt that Susan was more interested in hearing my answer to this question than the previous two.
