Kapitel 176: Everything else

(Third-Person POV)

Near a village close to the capital of the Asina Kingdom, Kayle was rhythmically tapping the knife in her hand against the table with her finger. She wasn't even aware of what she was doing—her mind was elsewhere. She was peeking through a small hole in the floor, watching the room below. Following the plan Kayle had devised, Marsiel was waiting down there. Meanwhile, Roxanne, in disguise, was in the secret room directly across.

In short, Kayle's plan was this: Marsiel had sent a letter to his older brother and had briefly spoken with him yesterday. Marsiel told his brother, Markuol, that he wanted to reconcile and had discovered Prince Ethan's weakness. He also assured Markuol that he didn't trust any of the other princes, which is why he asked him to come here alone.
