The throne room fell into a suffocating silence after Pell raised the question. The air grew tense as every beastman went on alert.
Yes, they all knew the Beast King was powerful.
But was he immune to a witch's spell?
Witches had always been a dire threat to beastmen. The weaker witches kidnapped cubs. The stronger ones did far worse—stealing cubs while bewitching their fathers into slaughtering their own mates before ending their own lives, so there would be no witness to their heinous act.
Some witches could even enslave beastmen with weak minds, turning them into tools for endless labor.
