Chapter 175: Curse revealed?

The vase lifted from its place. The superficial view appeared to be held by some person intentionally.

On witnessing it, everyone held different kinds of expressions and this gave their heart joy to begin with.

Moreover, Forex didn’t let lady Alice step back. "Keep on doing it, Lady Alice. You have to keep your focus on the right spot."

"I’m doing..." Alice muttered under her breath. But she knows it better that it’s still not worth saying.

Her tremulous body got damaged way more than earlier. Finding her soul shivering, it made her energy evaporate.

She managed to find her breath in the hold and the vase had been in the air till now. To this sight, both Cyrus and King Vilas had to cover their mouths.

The shocking view was hard to behold. It was a visual display of Alice’s undenying powers to them. "Forex...this... Alice is.."

"Don’t interrupt her, His Highness. Let the Princess do her work so that she can get an idea." Forex hasn’t shifted his gaze from Alice for a minute. His fierce stare was more concentrated on finding her capacity right now.

When the vase was still in the air, did Forex bring her out from the solid dimension, "Don’t open your eyes. Now, try to imagine bringing the same vase down on the wooden table. This should be done slowly."

Alice slowly gave approval to his words. She started to imagine in her blackness about bringing the vase down on the floor. It was done smoothly, with a lot of cautious acting with her brain.

But at the same time, her power overpowered her capacity to perform. The vase suddenly fell on the wooden table with a loud bang!

CAK!

The noise jolted Alice. She immediately snapped her eyes to have a look on what she commited. But that wasn’t the only thing she had done.

The entire wooden table had also caught fire. The vase’s shattered pieces were burning along with the table.

"Oh God! Shane, ask the servants to fetch the water! This fire needs to be subsided..’’ King Vilas passed the urgent order with the horror resting on his face.

While General Shane was ready to leave and execute the order but the voice behind him stopped him, "Better not, General Shane. We will let the lady practice extinguishing the fire she caused."

In response to this, Alice lifted her bewildered expression, "Me? You want me to stop this fire!?!"

"Yes, you can do Princess. Close your eyes and think about the water pouring on this fire." Forex told her about the technique and with a lot of fear, Alice had closed her eyes.

She recalled the same fire displayed in her mind and did think of water surrounding all the fires.

While King Vilas was extremely worried about the outcome, Prince Cyrus’s eyes didn’t show any gleam in them.

On the other hand, Alice entirely focussed all her willpower to remove the fire. It was harder than earlier and her teeths started to grit against each other. But that didn’t drop the lady from completing her duties.

Finally, the fire stopped as the water poured from the surface of its ceilings. Everyone was drenched, but one thing was the appearance of unexpected water to stop the fire.

As Alice reopened her eyes to find the view, her heart found relief. "Thank God..."

Her eyes flew in the other direction, finding if her father and husband too were painted with water. Except everything inside the circle made out of sand, the outer area was now all covered with wetness. "B-but I focussed on the fire area. How is that possible?"

Forex looked at the princess to answer, "Because right now, you don’t know your own powers. They are out of control and that’s why you aren’t able to focus on one place."

Turning around, Forex faced His Highness too, "You have seen the extent of the powers she has. It can cause chaos too. For her safety, you need to tell her the truth."

"Truth?" Alice was pulled out from the daze. A fresh frown curved on her forehead, "What’s the truth? Why do I have these powers, father? Where did I get them?"

Her questions brought out the same fear that King Vilas was hesitant to talk about. There was a bit of shame but more than that, reluctance to share. As the beads of sweat trailed through his face, King Vilas knew the outcome, "Alice....stay calm."

"I don’t find myself staying calm anymore, His Highness." Alice’s strict tone made King gulp.

She became more vigorous to learn. Her face held a solid look that can’t be deferred anymore. Her eyes contained the determination which was bold enough to break all the odds now.

"Tell me, father. What are you hiding from me?"

..... 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

King Vilas decided to bring Alice to a better place. It was the garden belonging to the late Queen and her mother.

Without any doubt, Alice knew the meaning behind this. ’They have been hiding something from me for so long..’ she won’t be amused if they say she is a witch either. Yet what will cause a turmoil would be the reason for the inheritance of such extreme powers.

A sigh escaped from Alice’s lips, "You knew about these superficial powers from long. Was my brother also aware about the same?" Alice’s question was direct and in return, she received a positive nod. "He knew about everything. Only a few people know and one of them was your late brother."

’And he never told me about this.’ She was slightly hurt and found it unfeasible. Her brother was her strong will. Why did he keep such an act as a secret from her?

Alice’s lips turned into a straight line. But that didn’t stop her from asking you further, "So, who am I father? Where do I get all of these features?"

"You are a witch. Not an ordinary one but the strongest of all the cubs of the witches."

"Did I get it from my mother? Was she also a witch?" Alice asked, to which her father turned around to stare in her direction with an unclear mist, "No, Alice. She wasn’t any which but a normal human being. But... just a mere curse ruined our lives years ago.."
