With a sense of unwillingness Empress Jian retaliated against Hanna's attack using her hands. Hanna who was behind the woman immediately looked at Empress Jian with feelings of anger and annoyance. As Empress Jian was about to pierce Hanna's stomach using her hand that was ready to tear Hanna's stomach quickly she walked over to attack Hanna. Hanna who saw immediately kicked Empress Jian's hand with a single move and as Empress Jian fell down almost kissing the floor Hanna immediately deployed her Sword on Empress Jian's neck.

The woman was surprised she didn't expect Hanna to be this strong.

"Heh In-laws don't know themselves! I'm warning you never to play with fire if you don't want to get hurt! answer honestly who told you to!." Hanna said with a cold look.

Empress Jian was terrified to see Hanna's drastically changed atmosphere. His face was like one ready to kill. The sharp gaze of her eyes made Empress Jian very nervous.

"I.... I'm..." Empress Jian nervously said her heart was pounding, her body was shaking, sweat was pouring out slowly signaling she was scared to death.

"Quick say! Or you'll really die in my hands!" Hanna said with annoyance.

Empress Jian so did not want herself to die she finally said honestly to Hanna. Instead he thought that telling the truth would be safe but that was just his wishful thinking.

"He's the one who told me to kill your mother!" Empress Jian said with great fear.

Hanna who looked extremely angry looked at Empress Jian with a look of disdain and hatred.

"Oh, so so." Haruka said with her cold face.

Hanna clasped tightly onto the sword she was pointing right at Empress Jian's neck. His gaze at that moment seemed to be only hatred and hatred.

"Good, I appreciate your honesty."

Empress Jian who heard Hanna's words felt a little relieved in her mind Hanna would not hurt her because she had been honest with Hanna.

"So thank you and goodbye my dear in-laws!." Hanna said with a cold look.

"What do you mean?!." Empress Jian.

"Goodbye!." Hanna said coldly.

Soon her sword she scratches right on Empress Jian's neck. A very loud scream from inside his room. With a single slash Empress Jian lay lifelessly with her head detached from her body. The smell of blood was stinging at that spot, the droplets of blood flowing from Hanna's sword stained the floor.

Hanna who looked very upset did not feel the slightest fear when she had finished Empress Jian's life she did not care anymore with Kichiro who would be disappointed with herself this was the path she had taken.

Soon Hanna came out of Empress Jian's room through the window that was already wide open. He walked over to meet his stepmother who was in Lin Palace.

One of the Soldiers who heard the shouting voice of Empress Jian immediately entered her room saw that Empress Jian was already lying lifeless with her head severed from her body. The guard then shouted loudly enough to make everyone inside the palace approach him. Yuan who was in the kitchen immediately approached the voice of the Soldier how surprised he was when he saw Empress Jian was no longer alive. Then Prince Aska who was in that place immediately approached Empress Jian and looked a very sad face.

"Who dares to do this!." Prince Aska said angrily.

Empress Kirana who saw the incident was very surprised she did not know who the killer was.

"What kind of woman have you killed the Empress?." In Yuan's mind in panic.

Prince Aska who did not see Hanna's whereabouts in that place felt very suspicious then he asked Yuan Servant Hanna.

"Where is Empress Hanna?." Prince Aska.

One of the Soldiers immediately replied asked Prince Aska.

"Although Prince, I saw Empress Hanna enter this room. But after that I didn't see him come out of the room.
