The whole room was shocked that Krystal had said so plainly, no one thought that Krystal had found out about the traitor in the first place. Krystal smiled as if she had no problem with the betrayal, getting used to it was one of the reasons why she did not care much about it.
“What? How do you know that? We thought you didn't know about it.” As they directed inquisitive gazes, they urged Krystal to tell them in detail.
“Actually, I suspected their gestures from the beginning, to make sure I put a paper spirit on their bodies, until it was revealed that they were spies. I'm not that stupid for them to be fooled, the affairs of traitors I can't tolerate. That's why I pretended not to know and acted as usual to them, then about the poison they gave it, you two have exchanged the contents, right?”
Cherry and Bleas nodded as they shed tears of relief, thinking Krystal would be heartbroken again for the betrayal from the closest people, apparently all running inversely proportional to their assumptions. The attempt to use a paper spirit to spy on someone was only possible by Krystal. Paper spirit is a plain thin kerta given a blow of spirit, usually the paper spirit will be affixed to the back of the target to know what is done by the target without the risk of being discovered.
“To be honest too, I just got a piece of Krystal's memory that Cleon actually did not want to save Krystal, but wanted to make Krystal as their last collision. I also saw beside Cleon a woman who was none other than Olin herself, but in the end they were caught taking Krystal out of prison, and they were attacked by imperial knights. Their existence disappeared because what brought me out was a clone of the bodies of Cleon and Olin, their original bodies located quite far from them,” said Krystal.
Absolutely beyond belief, the fact that Krystal is more sensitive to traitors is undeniable. The painful experience he had gained resulted in one of the most important attitudes to living such a strenuous life as Krystal had been all along. At least at this time they do not need to worry about the mental Krystal that will collapse if they find out about the traitors around them.
“Forcible we didn't tell you in advance, Your Majesty, we went in to investigate the white-robed group without your knowledge. Please forgive us,” said Cherry and Bleas look sorry not to tell Krystal.
“It's okay. I'm not angry at all, I don't know under whom you work, but as long as you don't betray me, that's more than enough.”.
“Huwaaa Your Highness, we love you very much, we will not betray you.” Cherry and Bleas burst into Krystal's arms, crying happily that they had chosen to be with Krystal all along. The concubines smiled excitedly watching Krystal appear brighter after returning from her stupor.
“Alright, should we go back to Albertine right now? There are many things that we need to do now, especially I want to make an interesting show at the palace later,” Krystal said as she flashed a creepy smile.
After that, they immediately got ready to return to Albertine, they paid their respects to the people of Midland. Now Krystal can teleport to Midland, because she already knows where Midland is, so this will make it easier for them to go to Midland.
They arrived at Albertine in an instant, Krystal's current return was a disaster for the members of the empire. Moreover, rumors of Krystal conquering Midland spread rapidly. Krystal had no idea where they had gotten the news from, it had suddenly been heard into the ears of every leader of the country. Krystal's position as the next Crown Princess is getting stronger, Fred along with the nobles who want to take down Krystal, now made not dwell by his great achievements.
Even Alexius – Emperor Archer and Alby – Crown Prince Ottavio hastily contacted Krystal to find out in detail the conquest. And again, Krystal was hailed as the savior of Midland from the economic downturn, because the talented people who disappeared first, have now been rediscovered.
“Don't you think the spread of this news is a little unnatural? Why is the good news about you always spreading so quickly? Is there anyone who helped spread this news?” tanya Austin noticed the awkwardness.
“Let's just think about it, right now there are more important things to do,” said Krystal ruling out the issue first.
“What will you do, Your Majesty?”
Krystal grinned, “Cherry, Bleas, I command you both to damage the palace contraceptive device and smear it with this liquid,” Krystal said giving a small bottle of clear-colored liquid.
“What is this, Your Majesty?” ask Bleas.
“You guys just do what I tell you, I want to make a surprise for Emilia later.”
...***...
Right on the same day, in a place in the middle of the city, a place where the nobles who supported Krystal used to discuss all the problems that happened in the palace. At that time there were very many nobles supporting Krystal who gathered, usually they were not this much, but due to the increasingly soaring name of Krystal, finally one by one the nation that had been neutral, which had been neutral, enter the stronghold of Krystal's supporters.
They soon had a meeting after the news of the conquest of Krystal spread to their ears. Various expressions of pride can be seen clearly there, they do not doubt Krystal's ability to get to this peak. Their hopes for Krystal were slowly beginning to materialize, they did not regret having supported Krystal so far.
Duke Salvatore became the leader of the camp, during this time he was the most instrumental in finding supporters to make Krystal Emperor. After witnessing firsthand Krystal's ability, now not only Albertine nobles, even outside support also came in. However, at that time there was something that made the atmosphere of the meeting room turn awkward, namely the arrival of Grand Duke Marvelo – Father Lucio.
“So, why can you be here, Grand Duke? Usually you always refuse to get into imperial politics,” asked Duke Salvatore.
“I came to give support to Princess Krystal.”
The statement from Grand Duke Marvelo left everyone agape, as they knew before, Grand Duke Marvelo always refused to interfere in the political affairs of the empire. However, today she looks different, she excludes Krystal in this case, for some reason her heart is driven to join Krystal's support.
“You're not kidding, are you?” ask Duke Salvatore to make sure.
