Fortunately, the fire was put out immediately because Baron Lunette’s life was saved.

“Anyone who can mobilize such a talented person will always try to kill a target again.”

“To be honest, I think it’s okay to just let him die. I don’t want to leave a person like that alone.”

“You knew it too.”

“Isn’t it obvious? The stars always know more than you.”

“I understand, so don’t read your guild’s slogan.”

Besides, that slogan was created by Thisbe. She ignored Malone’s teasing as she frowned and flicked her fingertips.

“I didn’t go out because I knew that escape was what I wanted, but honestly, what he’s doing is really cool.”

“Well, that’s true.”

Even if the charges hadn’t returned to her, Thisbe would have been one of those applauding from behind.

“But I don’t know what the culprit wants.”

Actually, this was the biggest problem.

Even with the entire S-Class Intelligence Guild Zodiac in her hands, she can’t still figure out the criminal’s intentions.

If it had not been because of the lack of information about the Zodiac, she would not have been so frustrated.

[Given enough time and money, the Zodiac can bring any information.]

This was a promotional phrase for the zodiac.

And it was also a ridiculous achievement that Malone actually succeeded.

Zodiac’s quest completion rate was close to 97%.

‘The other 3% are mostly things directly related to the zodiac or information related to me.’

Therefore, it can be seen that the achievement rate is close to 100%.

However, among the 3% of requests that Zodiac could not solve, there was recently a case that was not related to the Zodiac and Thisbe.

– Officer Chernyl’s death? Why do I not know about this accident? Of course I found out. Of course, the lady told me not to go out, but I thought I could make for an unusually unlucky day.

– Malone, don’t do useless things. Then what if you get killed?

– You’re also very… That’s what newbies do. And he died even though I didn’t kill him.

Malone giggled in relief, waved his hand, then returned with a smile on his face and said:

– Anyway, I figured it out. There would be no reason for the serial deaths of those involved with the young lady.

– Result?

– Well, actually, I’m a little embarrassed to say it out loud.

The result was clean.

As if they were all natural deaths.

The accident really appeared to be an accident, and no other link could be found in the deaths.

At the very least, in the case of people who died by poisoning, they tried to find out the type of poison and find the person who sold the poison, but there was no such thing.

– Of course, thanks to you, I’ve gained information that all of this is not natural. Rather, if it was a natural accident, there should be traces, but there are no traces here.

If a vase breaks, you can remove the broken pieces, but you cannot put the vase back in its original state, so is true with traces of a crime, Mahlon explained.

The absence of any trace proves that there was an artificial intervention in itself.

But that’s all she found out.

“I haven’t found out anything more since then.”

“Let’s do that. First of all, we are spending a little more time researching, but nothing is coming out right now. In this case, there is only one answer.”

“After all, it’s a golden key.”

“Yes.”

Security level golden key.

Information directly concealed by the highest levels of each country using their powers belongs to this class.

Even the S-class guild Zodiac, who claims to have all the information on the continent, cannot afford to touch that level of information.

“For example, information related to the sacred power held by the temple belongs to this type. Or when the emperor mobilizes the secret guard.”

Of course, such information is extremely rare.

So far, the golden key grade has been virtually the same as a nominal grade, which has appeared.

As a threat to Thisbe.

“Then I think the criminal has more authority than me.”

At least more than one country’s duke.

He was the culprit who could not be identified even by mobilizing Thisbe’s authority and Zodiac, so it was only natural.

This alone is difficult enough.

“You’ve been caught up to the shadows…”

“It’s been a long time since I’ve been caught up with, but it’s dizzying.”

Malone laughed jokingly as he said that, but Thisbe could see that there was a bitter uneasiness behind that smile.

And Thisbe’s feelings were not much different from him.

Thisbe mumbled with a long sigh.

“If we can’t catch the culprit right away, we need to figure out the intent.”

“Hmm, aren’t they an ardent admirer of the lady?”

“That’s a naive answer, Malone.”

Thisbe laughed dryly.

In this place where the fact that Estelle is the true protagonist of the oracle was even announced through the temple, is there any way that anyone would follow her?

“It would be more credible to say that the purpose is to accuse me and downgrade me.”

“Credibility or not, isn’t that actually the most likely thing?”

“Yeah, I know.”

Thisbe cut him off with a light applause.

“Next time, we must catch the criminal. When I’m still called Princess Callist.”

There was no more room for aesthetics. Yesterday, the elders came and threatened Estelle to be added in the family register.

Everything was going the way it was originally.

Estelle is soon enlisted, and Thisbe loses all her powers and status.

She had to finish the job before she did. Thisbe opened her mouth to explain her.

“The day after tomorrow, there’s a party at the Imperial Palace. There-“

And that moment.

Kudang!

Suddenly there was a loud noise outside. And, an unfamiliar voice and a familiar voice.

“- Lord!”

“Didn’t I tell you to go back!”

The owner of the familiar voice was Thisbe’s grandfather, the Duke of Callist.

Perhaps the commotion had flowed into the communication device, so a cautious voice came from Malone.

“Miss. Are you okay?”

“…Well.”

First of all, she doesn’t think they’re arguing because of her, so should she say she’s okay?

The Duke of Callist was a person who did not raise his voice easily. Of course, that’s another story if she says he’s someone who doesn’t get angry easily.

Anyway, it means that he rarely raises his voice like that.

‘What’s going on?’

And the moment Thisbe got up.

“The Princess of Callist is and always will be only one in the future! There is only one Thisbe!”

Duke Calixt’s loud voice echoed through the mansion.

There is only one Thisbe!

Only!

Only…

Thisbe had a brief breakdown.

Now, what did I hear? No, am I right? Isn’t this a dream?

Instead of Thisbe, who was lost in the feast of question marks in her head, Malone, who had been listening to Duke Callist over the decision, cleared up the situation.

“Wow, lady.”

Escape is probably going to be difficult.

There are many reasons why Thisbe chose her escape, but the biggest part of her decision is Estelle’s addition to the family register.

Thisbe thought she hated this expression because it seemed like she was shifting the blame to Estelle, but the objective truth is that it is true.

Estelle’s addition to the family register takes away every opportunity from Thisbe.

The name of the princess and the status as successor.

After her entry, Estelle introduced herself as ‘Princess Callist’, and Thisbe began to introduce herself as ‘Young Lady Callist’, which meant a lot.

This is because there is an enormous difference between a princess and a young lady.

A princess has the same influence and authority as a duke with every word she utters, but a young lady is just a daughter of Callist.

She is the daughter of Callist who is useless if not for an arranged marriage.

She hated it, so Thisbe planned her exile.

She says she’ll soon be a child of her own family anyway, so she’ll sneak off to the magic kingdom of Sage since no one cares about her.

But… What did he just say?
