75. Initial Step

As soon as he got to his residence Lilian immediately ran hastily towards his room and ignored all the greetings from the servants. After turning the crystal ball, Lilian's private library door appeared.

Lilian took a slow breath while grasping a scroll in her hand. Lilian's eyes closed and inhaled the strong aroma contained in the letter.

"True, it's apple cider vinegar." Lilian's mind looked seriously at the letter.

"What's wrong?" Seint asked as he watched the entire room. "This is your private room?" Ask again.

"Yes." Yeah." Lilian replied briefly.

"I just realized, it turns out that you also have a library like this." Seint.

"Now this isn't the room that matters." Lilian said seriously.

Seint raised next to his eyebrows. "Then?" Ask.

"It." Said Lilian while showing the scroll in her hand.

"What's with the letter?" Ask Seint.

"We will begin our investigation beginning with this letter. Rosa said I've been to a restricted area before because of this letter." Lilian.

Seint took the letter in Lilian's hand and opened it. Seint frowned as he read the contents of the letter.

Meet me in the restricted area, I'll give you the information you're looking for. Come alone and do not invite others to come with you, if you cannot keep it then I will not show myself.

"Who sent you this letter?" Seint asked looking at Lilian seriously.

"Either... I don't know." Lilian.

From the direction of the library entrance, Rosa appeared with Artem behind her.

"What's the matter Princess? why are you in such a hurry?" Ask Rosa worried.

"Explain to Prince Seint, how can I get this letter!" Lilian said to Rosa.

Rosa was confused. "First when the Princess was sitting relaxing on the main page, someone shot an arrow along with this letter nearby. After reading the letter, the Princess immediately hurriedly wanted to enter the forbidden area." Clearly Rosa.

"Then did he meet the person who sent the letter?" Ask Artem.

Rosa nodded quickly. "I've tried to restrain the Master Princess, but the Princess back then was very stubborn and entered the forbidden area alone." Clearly Rosa.

"Did you see the face of the person who met him?" Ask Seint flatly.

Rosa nodded quickly. "No, Your Majesty. The Princess entered the area alone. After returning the Princess brought a bundle of cloth." Rosa is serious.

"What's it say?" Ask Seint.

Rosa was scared. "Nor Your Majesty, I do not know. The Princess never discussed it and kept the bundle of cloth itself." Clearly Rosa.

Seint turned to look at Lilian. "Where do you keep that bundle." Ask.

Lilian shook her head weakly. "Don't know. But it might be there." Point Lilian towards the bottom drawer of her desk.

Seint walked closer to the drawer but could not open. "This drawer's locked, where's the key?" Ask Seint again.

Lilian sighed softly. "That's the problem. I don't know where I keep that key, either. But Rosa said that if the key had a poenix hanger given by Brother Asgar, maybe I should ask Brother Asgar after he returned later." Lilian.

"Why should I ask him?" Artem asked confusedly.

Lilian recalled her past self-talk if Asgar knew how to find the key. "Son Asgar gave me a hanger, who knows he has a way to find the key." Her speech.

"Mr Asgar is out of town to handle his business, it's likely to be a long time for him to come back here." Artem.

"Send him a letter and tell him to come back. Use the royal seal so he dies his job immediately." Said Seint firmly.

"Your Majesty." Artem.

Lilian took back the scroll in Seint's hand and looked at Rosa seriously. "Take me a Rosa candle!" Lilian.

Rosa frowned confusedly but obeyed Lilian's orders. "Good Princess." He said and then walked out.

"For What?" Ask Seint.

"This letter has the aroma of apple cider vinegar. We can send you a secret letter using apple cider vinegar." Lilian.

"You mean?" Ask Seint.

"If you write a letter using apple cider vinegar then the writing will not be visible to the naked eye. We need lighting like candles to be able to see the hidden writing. The smell of apple cider vinegar on this letter is so dominating, I'm sure the person must have written something else on the letter." Lilian.

Rosa went back in with a candle in her hand. "Where should I keep her Princess?" Ask.

"Keep it there." Point Lilian at a table.

Rosa then placed the candle on the table. Lilian approached the letter near Lilian but she saw nothing there but the writing they had seen before.

"What's possible behind ya." Lilian's mind then flipped the letter.

All eyes were wide-eyed when they saw a piece of writing appear behind the letter Lilian was holding. Lilian pointed the letter correctly at the candle so they could read it clearly.

Some people in the kingdom of Apollonia have committed treason, they have long moved and intend to rule the Apollonia kingdom. They intend to overthrow the present king and replace him with their Master.

Seint clenched his hands furiously after he finished reading the letter. His eyes sharpened and even his jaw hardened. "Anyone who dares to commit treason in this kingdom will never forgive me." Said cold.

Lilian gulped hard to see the cold face of Lilian. "I once smelled the same scent on someone." Lilian.

"Who." Ask Seint flatly.

"Mr Adrian Pavel. At that time we accidentally met in an artificial lake, when I passed it there was the same scent on the letter was out on his body but after I met it again the aroma was no longer there." Lilian.

"Adrian Pavel?" Seint asked while raising his eyebrows.

"Adrian Pavel Son of Lord Viscount Wilson Pavel?" Ask Artem to make sure.

Lilian nodded quickly. "Yes right." Lilian.

"Mr Viscount Wilson established a good cooperation with Mr. Marquis Gaustark. I heard He often went out of the kingdom to run his business, because Mr. Marquis Gaustark is still not allowed to leave the kingdom then all his duties were transferred to Mr. Viscount Wilson." Artem.

"According to the information from Tuah Ni, Lord Marquis Gaustark often conducts meetings in his residence, do we have to send someone to enter his residence?" Ask Lilian.

"He is one of the high officials in our kingdom, it will be very difficult to enter his residence, yet we must try it. In addition to the scouts from Tuah Ni we must also scout the residence of Viscount Wilson." Seint.

"Do I have to send some people to scout the residence?" Ask Artem.

"Yes. Send an experienced person there, from now on we must be careful of those people." Obviously Seint.

Everyone nodded in agreement to Seint's words. "As long as we wait for the next news we should have a plan to be able to lure them out." Said Seint flatly while looking at Lilian. "As Crown Princess you have the right to hold events in the Palace. Listen to the plan carefully... "Ucapyas.

Lilian nodded obediently and looked at Seint seriously to listen to his plan.
