Yvonne had rushed to her etcher's stable where she knew she would find the one who could give her so valid answers.
Demon's revelation was shocking but if what he had said was true then there was a high chance that just like her, Princess Felicia too had managed to form a bond with an etcher.
Though the Princess and those around her did not seem to realize it, Yvonne trusted her etcher and what he had said.
If she could gather evidence that Princess Felicia, a girl, had also ford a bond with an etcher, then the backlash when her secret was revealed in the future would diminish.
The King's protectiveness for his daughter would ensure that she would never face anyone's harsh words.
Since he cannot be partial to just his daughter, he might support any girl who was capable of forming a bond with an etcher.
Thus Yvonne's bond with Demon would also be under his protection when the ti cos for this secret to be revealed in the future.
To ensure that this takes place, she would first need to know more about the beast Demon had spoken of.
For this reason, she had rushed to et him as soon as she got back ho from the Palace.
eting Demon had indeed helped her gain more information about the cat she had t this afternoon.
{Master, I've sensed similar auras whenever that eagle would co by.}
His words reminded her of the etcher she had not t in a long while.
Sevenz's etcher, Tutu, the golden eagle who used to pass ssages between the two business partners was the one who had been ntioned.
Hearing this was enough for Yvonne to decide what she would do next and after playing with Demon for a little while longer, she headed inside.
There, she t her father, explaining everything that had taken place during the day.
Rutherford had already heard word from a servant sent by the Brodie family but it did not an that he was happy with what had taken place.
He had always been vigilant against the King after what had taken place on the day they had a parlez with him.
However, when he heard that the Princess might have an etcher by her side, he too was curious to learn more about it.
The father and daughter had the sa thoughts in their minds as the King would surely work hard to protect the Princess from the ire of the nobles if it was proven that she had managed to form a bond with an etcher.
Thus, despite how unhappy he was, he could only agree when he heard the child's plan to visit Sevenz Oca, the man who could help her solve this mystery.
Yvonne St. Claire, who had not been able to et her business partner due to various reasons, now had made up her mind to visit him right away.
Therefore, the very next day, she and Jax had arrived at the mansion she had been to a few tis in the past.
She did not forget to bring along with her the Apple pies sold at Willow's cafe, the store run by the commoner whose pies Yvonne had already introduced to nurous people of nobility.
When she reached the mansion hidden among the tall trees, she found the sa old butler who had welcod her the last tis she had been here.
He led her to the Parlor where she found Sevenz already waiting for her.
Seeing the boxes in Jax's hands, he could guess what was inside and hurried his Butler to fetch them plates so that they might consu them right away.
He also sent word to Sept who could also co and enjoy this treat she had brought for them.
Yvonne did not mind as she was here, not to enjoy the pies, but for so information that she needed from him.
While the butler had gone to complete the tasks given to him, Sevenz had inquired about the reason for her sudden appearance when she had been avoiding him all along.
The child choked but shook her head, rejecting his accusations as she had been busy which had delayed their eting.
Taking the pies into account, Sevenz decided to let her off the hook this ti before ntioning that his n could begin distribution of CLOVER's products as soon as they received the signal from him.
Yvonne had nodded, informing that even the Hagen family was ready and he could send his n to the Valente fief at any ti.
She even ntioned her plans for the noble market and he was surprised to see that everything was moving at such a fast pace.
Soon, the butler had returned with the plates and even Sept entered the room after him.
With the uncle and nephew pair seated on one couch, Yvonne was on the other as she decided to bring up the main reason she was here.
Listening to what she had said, Sevenz first scratched his cheek before confirming that Demon had been right when he said that Iris, Princess Felicia's cat, possessed aura.
Another piece of information she gained was that the cat, which was the birthday present for the Princess given by her elder brother, had been purchased from Ocular's Caravans.
A branch of their business dealt with exotic pets and Iris was a long-coated cat that his n had acquired through a lot of difficulties.
Yvonne was appalled to hear that Sevenz was involved in the sale of etchers as that could separate the beast from its fated master.
Demon had also been targeted by one such group which was now making her wonder if this young man had also been involved in it.
However, the explanation she received next helped to quell her anger.
Sevenz vowed that he had nothing to do with what had taken place to Demon and this was the first ti he was hearing about it.
He then went on to reveal that Ocular's Caravans did not trade etchers as that was unethical in his opinion.
"Then what about the cat?" Yvonne had interrogated which he answered right away.
According to what she had heard from him, Iris, the white long-coated cat which resembled a persian cat from Yvonne's previous world, was not an etcher at all.
{A halfling}
Sevenz had described this beast as the offspring between an etcher and an ordinary animal.
Either the mother or the father of Iris must have been an etcher while the other was an ordinary cat.
The result of this was Iris, a kind of creature known as a halfling.
Though they possessed aura and slightly higher intelligence, they were not capable of imprinting on soone and forming a bond with a human.
They had superior appearance and intelligence when compared to ordinary animals which made them a highly sought-after option for pets among Royals and nobility of different Kingdoms.
In Rosenhyde, won could not form bonds with etchers but she now learned that getting close to halflings who shared the sa territorial nature as their parents was possible.
Therefore, even if Iris was not an etcher, she had chosen to stay with the Princess which in a way could be said that she had imprinted on her master, the only daughter of the King.
Though what she had learned from her business partner was not what she had expected, there was still so hope.
If won were capable of staying with halflings then wouldn't it increase their status in society?
After all, they might not be etchers but they were still superior beings when compared to other animals.
With this ca the end of the reason Yvonne had appeared at Sevenz's house out of nowhere.
However, Sevenz did not let her leave as there was sothing on his mind which had not been addressed for far too long.
The child was already aware of what he wished to ask and hence before he could even speak, she clarified the doubts in his head.
She knew that Sevenz had been wanting to ask her about the actions she had taken before the plague which were almost as if she was sure of its appearance.
To clear this doubt, Yvonne repeated the sa excuse she had given to Topher.
{I had precognitive dreams.}
Her answer was simple and even if Sevenz wished to challenge its authenticity, there was no way he could prove her wrong.
After all, nothing else made sense other than the absurd reason she had given him.
Displeased with this answer, he could only let it go even though he knew that sothing did not make complete sense to him.
"But I have sothing to ask Sept.." Yvonne had turned her attention to the other person seated next to Sevenz as soon as she answered him.
