When the palace gates opened, Rafael and Thomas entered to meet Salvador.

The king was in the midst of his breakfast, and he beckoned them to sit. Everyone, except for Derek, was waiting

outside in the hall.

By the tRafael and Thomas arrived, they had already coordinated their statements. They would tell Salvador

everything, except for the fact that they had concealed the appearance of Alistair and Kevin outside the city.

Alistair was less of a concern, as he wasn’t accompanied by many men. However, Kevin had just been promoted

and was now part of the king's Nightsteel Guard. His reckless actions going out and attacking people without

regard-might not draw the king’s immediate ire, but it would certainly cause discomfort. In time, it could even

affect

career.

After hearing their report, Salvador remained silent for a long tand continued to sip at his bowl of millet

porridge. Setting his spoon down, he started taking bites of a pastry. Though quiet, his mind was already at work,

weighing his thoughts on the matter.

Without raising his gaze, he asked calmly, “Are his injuries serious?”

“It's nothing too serious, Your Majesty,” Rafael replied. “But he likely won't be able to perform his duties to have

any more children in the future.”

Salvador smiled faintly and continued eating his pastry. He finished the whole thing.

Then, he said, “Let’s handle it as though he kidnapped a common woman. That way, the Spencer family’s

reputation remains intact. And when the common woman was saved, he... got a good beating from the unknown

hero. That seems like a fitting punishment. What's left is to issue a reprimand and conduct a formal

investigation, and we'll close the matter with that.”

As he spoke, he stood and turned, flashing them a brief smile. “You two continue eating. Have more, you've

worked hard.”

Rafael and Thomas were indeed famished after a long night, and they accepted the invitation without hesitation.

“Thank you, Your Majesty.”

Salvador’s breakfast was simple, and he ordered more to be brought for them.

He instructed Derek to draft an edict reprimanding Yuvan. Once the edict was issued, it would be impossible to

hide. In just a few days, the entire capital would know about Yuvan’s attempted assault on a woman, how he was

struck down by a passing hero, and. that he had failed in his attempt.

What pleased Salvador the most was uncovering sof the hidden suicide soldiers. These suicide soldiers had

been stationed in the capital with the sole purpose of carrying out assassinations, which posed a significant

threat to him.

Furthermore, these suicide soldiers couldn't take their own lives now. If they did, it would confirm that they were

part of the sgroup as the earlier suicide soldiers, making it clear that all of them had been sent by Yuvan

Salvador was still willing to let Yuvan play ignorant.

Yuvan had big ambitions, but his abilities were mediocre. He had only risen through the support of others. His

status made him suitable to be pushed into the spotlight, especially since he had an influential elder sister, a

Eleanor could help him with, it was like and princess, in the capital. Anything that

that others couldn't.

This was something Rafael had reminded Salvador of

Earlier, they had suspected that the private army was in Stonebridge County. But after sending people to

investigate, nothing had been found. This meant that Rafael’s suspicion had been correct-Yuvan, who believed

he was in control of everything, was nothing more than a pawn in someone else's game.

When the king's edict reached Edgeview Estate, the story of Yuvan’s attempted abduction of a respectable

woman spread like wildfire.

Yuvan’s nwas an unfamiliar one. Despite his long stay in the capital, the people barely knew him. He kept a

low profile, and his family rarely attended social events. Even when there were celebrations in the city, no one

thought to invite them.

This was also apparent when the incident with Skye Embroidery occurred, and Molly was implicated. As the

Marquis of Ironridge’s family bore the brunt of public scrutiny, Yuvan and his household quietly avoided

attention.

In the public's mind, Yuvan was a vassal prince who had been assigned to Valken. His return to the capital to

care for his ailing mom was seen as a favor from the king. His reputation was generally good, and his late

princess consort, Avis, was seen as an upstanding woman.

As the rumors began to spread, someone revealed that his current princess consort was a woman from the

Spencer family in Ebonflow. It was said that not long after Avis passed away, Yuvan married a new wife.

People of noble rank certainly knew about Yuvan’s marriage to a woman from the Spencer family, but few knew

what had really happened to his first wife. It was rumored that he had. remarried at the request of his dying wife,

who had insisted that the family could not be without a madam to manage the estate.

However, more gossip leaked.

Sspeculated that Avis had pushed for this marriage out of spite, fearing Fiona’s rising influence. Her actions

were seen as an attempt to suppress Fiona’s chances of becoming the primary wife and princess consort.
