The Quinton family had navigated the political landscape for many years, and they were now in their prime.
Malcolm had gained significant favor during the reign of King Sigmund. He prided himself on understanding the
late king's intentions, yet he couldn't grasp the current king's mindset.
He couldn’t understand why Salvador would appoint Carissa as Mystic Army’s commander. This position was
critical. If the Hell Monarch and his people had treasonous intentions, the power that cwith that role was
considerable.
Thus, he convened a family meeting, where he imposed strict measures and expressed his dissatisfaction with
Carissa.
“Causing such a commotion will turn the noble families of the capital upside down. | fear it may lead to wrongful
accusations. | never realized she was such an impatient and self-serving person. She made an example out of
Prince Yuvan’s household right off the bat-how can we expect her to show any mercy to the other families? It's
simply absurd.”

Felix and Logan were also present. They considered defending Carissa, but before they could speak, Malcolm
shot them a cold look.
“You need to be more cautious. That applies especially to you, Logan, as you're married to a royal family
member. Princess Kiera is the Hell Monarch’s younger sister. You must be careful of what you say and do in her
presence. Who knows where her loyalties truly lie?”
Logan had no choice but to reply, “Uncle Malcolm, please rest assured. | can withstand any test from the
princess, and | believe Commander Sinclair is not acting recklessly.”
“What do you know?” Malcolm frowned deeply. “The fact that she started this today shows she has no regard for
anyone's reputation. The king might not act against her for now, but this kind of chaos is humiliating for all the
families involved, especially ours. How can we let her trample on our family like this?”
With the Quinton family’s current status, they weren't easily challenged.
Logan wanted to say more, but Felix stopped him. After the family meeting ended, the two of them stepped
outside.
Logan asked, “Why didn’t you letspeak, Felix? | believe Lady Carissa isn’t making a scene for ne reason. If
Grand Princess Eleanor truly is plotting treason, she must have allies by now.”
Felix replied, “Do you think Uncle Malcolm isn’t aware of this? To put it bluntly, it's because the person
investigating the noble families is Lady Carissa. If it were Prince Rafael, Uncle Malcolm would certainly have a
different stance.”
Logan found the conversation rather dull. “What does it matter that she’s a woman? Everyone knows Lady
Carissa’s capabilities. Uncle Malcolm has praised her before for having the qualities of her dad.” “Praise is just a
passing comment,” Felix explained. “But now she’s in charge of the treason case, which means she can
interrogate anyone from the noble families at will, even intimidate them. How can Uncle Malcolm endure having
our family be trampled on like this?”
“But Lady Carissa wouldn't do that, Logan insisted.

Felix sighed. “She wouldn't, but what Uncle Malcolm is unhappy about is that she could do it. It doesn’t matter
whether she actually will. Just the fact that she has the power to do it is enough for Uncle Malcolm to feel
humiliated.”
Logan didn’t have much ambition. He thought these matters of reputation were not so important as long as he

Meanwhile, Barrett was recovering from his injuries at Valor Estate. His appointment had cthrough- he was
transferred to the Crown Guard, and he was their commander.
To him, it was a stroke of incredible luck.
When his appointment was announced, Rebecca and Viola were overjoyed. They ordered the family to prepare a
feast to celebrate.
Viola was especially thrilled. Being part of the Crown Guard was impressive enough, not to mention being its
commander. Many noble youths spent years trying to achieve such a rank without success. She felt that it
rivaled Thomas’ position as a third-rank major general and even surpassed it, as Barrett would now be working
closely with the king. That would give him greater opportunities for advancement.
However, Rebecca and Viola's excitement waned when they learned that Carissa, as the commander of the
Mystic Army, was now Barrett's superior. So, Barrett was essentially only the deputy commander of the Crown
Guard.
Then, the news that Carissa had taken the Capital Guard to Edgeview Estate to interrogate the people within
extinguished any lingering joy on Viola's face.
What an impressive display of authority! Ultimately, they were sure that it was Carissa’s status as a princess
consort that lent her this confidence to do what she did.
