On Sunday, July 7th, 777, in the world of Himlear, a rural noble family welcomed their seventh child—a seemingly ordinary girl who, from birth, appeared to have an indissoluble bond with the numb...
"Felenna has declared an all-out war against Diodor?"
Hulim almost thought she had misheard and asked again.
"You heard it right, this is true. To be honest, when I first heard the report, I felt the same as you."
Alicia replied.
“… …”
Hulim fell into deep thought.
"It was actually done by the Third Prince? What on earth is going on? Is there really something hidden that we don't know about..."
"And this letter."
Hulim took out the crumpled letter.
"So this is where something is wrong."
Under normal circumstances, after Crawford was murdered, the eldest prince Drehak would be the biggest beneficiary and the biggest suspect in this incident.
But judging from Ferenna's reaction, she obviously knew something and was sure that Diodore was the mastermind.
If the person threatening Crawford mentioned in the letter is the third prince Diodore, then the current situation makes sense.
The person who sent this letter should be the Third Prince's man, and should also be a key figure in the operation of the faction. However, for some reason, this person not only has no intention of helping the Third Prince, but instead vaguely betrays him.
It is certain that Crawford's death was initially arranged by Diodore, but some problems arose in the middle. The person responsible for arranging the assassination plan had betrayed Diodore, so he deliberately left evidence that would point to Diodore.
But judging from the fact that he chose to kill Crawford according to Diodore's wishes, he is definitely not a man of the Fourth Princess Felena.
"In the end, he's still the eldest prince? No... that's not right..."
Hulim looked carefully at the letter in her hand.
Something is still wrong, but there is a lack of information...
"Alicia, there must be other evidence in Crawford's home that directly identifies the suspect. We have to find it."
Although Ferenna's reaction led to the conclusion that the person in the letter was Diodore, the letter did not actually indicate this. If the writer had betrayed Diodore a long time ago, then there must be other letters or evidence that could directly prove that the mastermind was the third prince!
"Yes, there will be a memorial service at the Secretary of State's home. We just need to attend as the first discoverer. But... can we find it at his home?"
"I don't know. We have to give it a try. Besides, the suspect of the murderer can be changed to someone from the Third Prince's faction."
"I've arranged it that way, but it'll take some time to find out."
"In that case, let's go to Crawford's house and investigate..."
... ...
Two days later.
Upper town of Langard.
A large number of nobles gathered at the home of Minister Crawford to attend the memorial service.
Alicia, Hulim, and Miko also came here.
"Your Excellency, Minister of State Crawford Baronolon, has been diligent and dedicated throughout his tenure, making significant contributions to the stability and prosperity of the empire. Every day he serves..."
At the memorial service, Crawford's coffin was placed in the middle, surrounded by various precious flowers. The envoy sent by the emperor was delivering a eulogy on behalf of the emperor in front of the coffin.
The nobles and celebrities who were sitting in the room all listened quietly to each other's speeches.
It looked like a peaceful memorial service, but secretly it was anything but peaceful.
The reason for this was that among the many nobles and celebrities present, a group headed by the Fourth Princess Felena exuded a murderous aura as if they were engaged in a bloody battle.
That is to say, the eldest prince Drehak has not been in Langard, and the third prince Diodore will not attend the memorial service.
Otherwise, the atmosphere on the scene might be hard to control...
"That's the Fourth Princess, Felena. She looks very similar to the one in the rumors..."
Looking at Felena, Hulim couldn't help but think.
So, how much does she know about the inside story of this matter? If we can communicate with her, perhaps we can get more information...
After the emperor's envoy finished his speech, the guests at the scene came forward one after another to carry out the farewell ceremony. Finally, after the church staff announced in the name of the six gods that he had embarked on reincarnation and returned to the embrace of the gods, the entire memorial service was over.
As soon as the memorial service ended.
Ferenna and her group left without stopping.
"Please wait a moment, Fourth Sister."
Alicia called her.
"What's up?"
Felena's tone was cold, but at least she stopped.
"Fourth Sister, I want to ask, why are you able to confirm that Third Brother is the mastermind?"
Knowing Felena's character, Alicia didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
"snort!"
Felena snorted coldly.
"What else could it be? That guy is just upset about Crawford betraying him! But so what?! Crawford is my man now. If he dares to attack me, he's declaring war on me!"
After saying that, Felena turned around without caring about how Alicia reacted.
"Let's go!"
Then the group left in a hurry.
I guess he's going back to deal with Diodor again...
