Chapter 2099

“Look, you’re the one who lured me into this mess!” Roselynn masked her

discomfort over being tricked by using a playful tone. “Me?” Emmanuel

pointed to himself, the picture of innocence. “That scoundrel Gautier faked

death, used Al to copy your voice, and somehow knew everything about m

situation. I bought it completely, never guessing he was alive. Who’d have

guessed he’d go to such lengths just to get his hands on the second half of

the Dragon Tome?” She sighed, frustration clear in her voice. If I’d known the

Dragon Tome would cause this much hassle, I’d have never laid eyes on it!

Knowing her brother’s cunning, she realized his plan was to create a

convincing but fake version of the Dragon Tome, just enough to throw their

enemies off the scent. Since he suggested it, she played along without

hesitation. He dictated, and she transcribed dutifully–understanding that her

well–known handwriting would make it look authentic. As long as no one saw

her penning the text herself, they’d have no reason to doubt its truth.

“Let’s put the fake scripture back where it belongs and get out of here!”
