A poisonous wasp would die as soon as it stung, which meant new ones had to be bred for other missions.
After a while, Jared reminded Rayleigh, “Mr. Deragon, Lyanna might be connected to Mapleton somehow. Apart from using the Seduction Technique, she could also release poisonous gas. Fortunately, the gas couldn't harm me, for I could absorb it by using Focus Technique.”
“Let's go and ask Lyanna about her background.”
Rayleigh also opined that it was a chance to figure out Melanie's past.
When Jared and Rayleigh entered the room, Melanie and Lyanna were sitting next to each other and chattering happily. Since they appeared to be very close, one would think that they had known each other for many years.
Lyanna stopped smiling and talking when she saw Jared and Rayleigh coming in.
“How are you related to Mapleton?” Rayleigh asked Lyanna straightforwardly.
Given the sensitivity of the question,
Lyanna closed her mouth and didn't say a word.
Meanwhile, Melanie introduced, “Lyanna, this is Mr. Deragon. He is kind-hearted and has raised me since I was a baby. Please feel free to tell him your story.”
Since Melanie vouched for Rayleigh, Lyanna finally said, “The Poison King in Mapleton is my godfather. I grew up in Mapleton.”
Rayleigh was shocked when he heard Lyanna's words. Assuming that Melanie and Lyanna are twins, their parents died due to Mapleton's wasp venom. In that case, why did the Mapletons adopt
Lyanna?
“In that case, you must have been sent by the Poison King. I'm assuming the Poison King intends to avenge his godson.”
