The Goddess of Revenge
Consorts Shuria

“I'm not kidding, the only one who deserves to be the next Emperor is Princess Krystal, even her ability surpasses the current Emperor. Then don't you feel weird about the Emperor's different treatment of the Princess?”

Every eye-sighted look led to Grand Duke Marvelo, his words resuscitating them about the awkwardness of Fred's treatment of Krystal. Previously, they had never thought about this, only the thought of Grand Duke Marvelo was currently also inevitable.

“After a second thought, the treatment of the Emperor to Princess Krystal was very different as if the Princess was not his biological child,”, Duke Salvatore said.

“That's why I put a spy in the palace to prove my awkwardness of mind, if Princess Krystal is not the real son of the Emperor, this will be a serious problem,” said Grand Duke Marvelo.

All the nobles who were in the room began to suspect the possibility that would happen afterwards. They fuss with each other making noises about various predictions if the awkwardness of Grand Duke Marvelo was proven true.

“Which is clear now we have to make sure about this first so that we can prevent the worst possible future. Do not forget also we must exert all our abilities to help the Princess, the only hope of obtaining peace is only in the hands of Princess Krystal. Give all our strength to protect him, even if he does not need to be protected, but we do not know anytime a great danger will be faced,” said Duke Salvatore.

They also ended the meeting a few minutes later, a meeting that was only used as a place to exchange thoughts, assumptions, and other matters that were considered important.

...***...

On the next day, Krystal planned to descend throughout the Albertine area, wanting to observe firsthand the state of public health that the Emperor had neglected all along. At once Krystal wants to provide treatment if there are people who contract serious diseases. Not to forget also Krystal prepared some money and food for later he shared. Meanwhile, Krystal tells Cherry and Bleas to hide from Cleon and Olin, they are forbidden to appear to prevent unwanted things from happening. Then Krystal acted as natural as possible in front of the two so she could get important info later.

“Austin, Ash, you two come with me, then the others monitor the situation in the palace and in the remote areas of Albertine. Immediately report to me if there is an irregularity,” said Krystal.

Despite a bit of protest from the concubines because all Krystal invited to go with her was Austin and Ash. They all wanted to go with Krystal, but she forbade him because she only needed two people to go see the condition of the common people. Forced to obey Krystal with a heavy heart, immediately each of them went to each different place.

The first area that Krystal wanted to visit was a small settlement on the southern side of the city, Krystal got reports that many homeless people lived in the settlement, not a few also among those who suffered serious illness. Arriving there, Krystal was shocked to see the unusual sight. It's just a small settlement, but the conditions are too bad. Along the road, not a few children who are hungry, garbage is also scattered here and there, adults seem to endure pain in the chest, then their residence is not habitable.

“Is this really the part of Albertine hailed as the most prosperous empire?” Ash was stunned and at the same time felt concerned about the scene he was witnessing now.

“The conditions are very bad, they are outrageous once abandoned the small people,” said Austin.

As Krystal approached carrying a lot of food, the children who had a sensitive smell immediately realized there was food around them. Then the children ran towards Krystal and raised their hands.

“Please feed us, you bring food, don't you? We haven't eaten in days,” pinta those kids.

Krystal crouched down before them with a sad expression, she took out one by one her food and distributed the food to them.

“This, eat a lot, if less you can ask for more,” said Krystal.

“Can we really ask for more?” ask one of the girls with sumringah.

“Yes, you guys eat this food first.”

They devoured the food in a short time, and the others began to notice the arrival of Krystal. In an instant Krystal was mobbed by many people asking for food, Austin and Ash helped hand out the food to them. Krystal's heart ached to witness such an apparition. Greedy leaders inflict harm on innocent people.

“Please! Please!” A man shouted for help, Krystal rushed towards the direction of the voice.

“What's up?” krystal asked a man who looked panicked and crying.

“Alright, take me there immediately.”

The man took Krystal into a small hut, the man's wife was moaning in pain, next to her were two children who were crying worried by the state of the mother. Without lingering, Krystal immediately checked his condition, it turns out that the man's wife has acute magh. Krystal also issued a holy power to save his life, it did not take long, now the man's wife's disease has been fully cured.

Happy cheers rang out from their mouths, thanks were repeatedly made to Krystal. Then Krystal went out and healed the sick, more than fifty people had the same disease. However, Krystal treated their pain in just a short time. Krystal's arrival became a great gift to them, plus Krystal left some money for them to spend later.

After that, Krystal headed to the next area located close to the Albertine forest. In this place there is only a small village and slum, the condition of the people here is more or less the same as the previous settlement. It's just that, in this place it looks arid because there is no source of clean water flowing.

“Cherry, can you come here?” call Krystal, seconds later Cherry appears before Krystal.

“What's up, Your Honor?” ask Cherry.

“I'm sorry I called you all of a sudden when you were hiding. I want to ask you to find a source of clean water, can you do it?”

“Let's just calm, it's an easy thing for me,” said Cherry immediately set off to detect the presence of a clean water source.

Suddenly as Krystal was about to step deeper, a little boy came up to Krystal, crying like he was worrying about something.

“Sister, what is the brother of a noble? Can you help my mom? My mom is in pain at home.”

Krystal, Austin, and Ash were stunned to see the little boy's face that resembled Fred's. Black hair, then violet eyes that only imperial members had, could not be denied any resemblance between the two.

“Your Highness, this child..”.

“Yes, let's think about it later, which is clear now we have to save his mother.”

The boy pulled Krystal's hand towards a small house, on his bed lay a young woman with dark purple hair. His heart rate sounded swallowed, the sigh was also intermittent, the pain in the chest of the woman continued to spread throughout the body. Krystal quickly healed him, now the woman is improving. As Krystal sat by her bedside, the woman opened her eyes. However, his expedition looked surprised at the sight of Krystal.

“Your Highness Princess Krystal, why can you be here?” ask the woman.

“You know me? Who the hell are you really? Then this child, is it the son of the Emperor?” terka Krystal.

“Do you not remember me? I Shuria – concubine Emperor.” Krystal was silent for a while, the name Shuria appearing in the memory of the owner of the body. A picture in which Shuria as the Emperor's favorite concubine treats Krystal very well, but suddenly she disappeared seven years ago.

“I remember you, concubine of Shuria. Why are you here? This kid—”

“Your Majesty, listen to me! It's been a long time I've wanted to say this to you about the truth that you should know.” Shuria is seen keeping a big secret about Krystal, this time she wants to reveal the secret to Krystal.

“What truth?”

“The truth about that in fact you are not the biological child of the current Emperor, but rather you are the son of the previous Emperor and Empress.”
