The Larson Family’s Confusion

The elders could only look at their family's patriarch in silence, equally baffled by the princess's sudden and unexpected change. The devils had assured them that once the princess announced Flamecrest as the sinner, the Larsons would deliver a fatal blow to Flamecrest. Even if Flamecrest wanted to resist the accusation, they would be powerless against the combined forces of the many nobles and the imperial family.

Once Flamecrest had no way out, it would only be a matter of time before they collapsed, and their position was taken by the Larsons. With Flamecrest gone, the only remaining threat to their family would be the imperial family. However, with the princess on their side, they would have the imperial family's support. There seemed to be nothing wrong with the devils' plan.
