Her Formidable Weakness

The figure full of tenderness and love that Samael showed everyone disappeared immediately. Their image of the Prince has been updated harshly. Samael is the son of a Dragon. And because he is both Dragon and human, he inherited the power of the Dragon and the ego of a human.

Slowly, Samael smiled and turned his head towards Cecilia. He has confirmed that Cecilia accepted the contract. "Or Princess Cecilia wants her father's head as our wedding present? It doesn't matter to me," said Samael in a soft voice, but with cruel words.

The nobles wanted to rush towards Samael and curse him for degrading Bertia's dignity to such an extent. But they remembered again that Cecilia hated her father and Leonid, her half-brother. Behind Cecilia now lies a world treasure in the form of Pegasus, that no one knows how strong its worth. Moreover, Roxus, who had been watching quietly earlier, blocked their escape route at the edge of the hall.

In this place, at least two great powers were willing to kill for Cecilia's sake. So they fell silent, like a clam refusing to come out of its shell. Cecilia stared coldly at her father who was staring tensely at all over the room. Just then, a Knight appeared out of nowhere and bowed towards Cecilia.

"Your Highness, we have a report that Crown Prince Leonid has currently crossed the border of the capital with hundreds of his personal troops. There are also reports that thousands of troops have gathered in the Sereskyfell mountains," the knights who came were the Special Forces who had been following Cecilia at the orders of the King. But without the King knowing, the Special Forces under Cecilia had made a deal with her to be loyal only to Cecilia.

It has already been mentioned that Cecilia has made all kinds of sacrifices, and this is one of them. "A coup," Cecilia spoke with absolute certainty.

Everyone is shocked. Cecilia didn't know what her younger brother was thinking. Nor did she know that her younger brother had decided to take this path. She didn't even know that all of today's plans were going so smoothly in the direction she wanted them to. She didn't have much hope. She only knew that Roxus did something for her. Roxus planned something for her...

Cecilia laughed with a terrible grin. What a cunning woman, she thought.

Kingmaker.

In the future that no longer exists, Roxus makes her own younger brother a figure of a King. Right now, Roxus decided to make Cecilia the King. To be honest, Roxus didn't need any deep preparation. Roxus only needed to get Eoin, her father, to tell Cecilia about how to contact Samael. Eoin was quite skilled at obtaining such information, and Roxus trusted him.

After that, she kept Ariaster and his men away from the capital by breaking his heart. She wanted to make Leonid confident to gather his troops. That's why she was surprised that Ariaster appeared in the palace garden yesterday.

She was sure before that Ariaster had moved away from the capital, that's why she double-checked everything, and sure enough, Ariaster came to the palace at that time simply because after he learned of Leonid's movements, he thought Leonid would try to force Roxus to marry him with some kind of plans after gathering his troops to hurt the Croixes. Leonid's preparations went smoothly, but Ariaster didn't have time to stop him because, behind the scenes, Roxus was also blocking him.

Lastly, she convinced Samael to continue pursuing Cecilia. To be honest, Samael was quite interested in Cecilia personally, so Roxus proposed methods for him to gain Cecilia's trust, namely by equalizing their status quo.

At the moment, Roxus' problem remains Ariaster. His existence is ambiguous and unimportant to Roxus's plans, but if Ariaster doesn't agree to the steps Cecilia and Samael are taking, there is still a chance that Ariaster will help Leonid since he's no longer Roxus' people. In the former future also, they joined hands after Daisy left him for Leonid. Even so, Roxus has the last weapon. She might have to go to Ariaster and tell him that she still loves him. That way, Ariaster will support her and Cecilia.

But right now, neither Ariaster nor Leonid nor any man in the world would be able to make Roxus act like a prostitute anymore.

"If Ariaster gets involved, I'll cut off his head with my own hands," Roxus said in a low voice.

Only her own family could hear her, along with Lucifer. Ariaster's strength was on par with Leonid's. It would be annoying if they attacked the palace at the same time.

"How about I go and ask Ariaster himself, is he siding with Leonid or the Princess?" asked Lucifer.

Lucifer doesn't care. Whether it was Ariaster or Leonid, he would chop off the heads of the two right away.

Roxus chuckled. If she sent Lucifer, the man would cut off Ariaster's head first and then ask him what to ask. If he didn't get an answer from the dead man, he would probably bring his body and his severed head before Roxus and make an excuse that the dead man didn't answer his question.

"Ariaster is a rational man," Roxus said.

He is a man who loves his title, power, and strength more than anything else. That is also the reason why he chose innocent Daisy, not the shrewd Roxus. "If he hears that Prince Samael is on our side, he will not interfere."

Roxus shrugged her shoulders.

"But you're still worried, right?" Lucifer asked softly as if he was trying to tease Roxus' desire to kill Ariaster.

Roxus was worried because everything was going too smoothly. She was worried that if she didn't take this opportunity to accuse Ariaster of a crime he might have committed, she would not be able to kill Ariaster again in the future and he could cause unexpected trouble.

Moreover, her body was not in tip-top shape now, and Lucifer realized that.

Daisy.

The name suddenly came to mind in her head. If Daisy accidentally dies in all this chaos, will time repeat itself all over again? That can't be happening. And if something unexpected happened to her, Roxus felt that it must be related to Daisy.

"Find that woman, Luci," Roxus ordered. "Watch her and make sure she doesn't cause problems," she continued.

Lucifer couldn't believe it. Instead of telling him to kill Ariaster to secure their position, she told him to get Daisy checked and prevent her from doing anything that would destroy their plans. Roxus is too worried about Daisy, and Lucifer finds it absurd.

Roxus smiled faintly. She was thinking things that were very different from the current Lucifer, and she didn't let anyone read her mind.

There was a benefit in letting Lucifer handle Daisy right now, but only Roxus knew about it.

Samael glanced at Roxus and Lucifer silently. He had been able to hear their words from earlier and was curious about this woman named Daisy.

Roxus wondered if Samael met Daisy, would he be fascinated by her as well as Ariaster and Leonid in the past future?

Roxus turned towards Ernacht, her younger brother. Ernacht was the only man who was not in awe of Daisy that she knew. But then it made sense that like Ernacht, Samael wouldn't be influenced by Daisy's charm either.

Roxus blinked. She wanted to know how far she could go.
