Chapter 224. Crisis, Part IV

Translator: Khan

Editor: Aelryinth

Killian called the waiting Valerian after a long silence. “Valerian, you have to go to Tilia Territory.”

“Yes, Your Highness. Just give me your order.”

“The Duke should be sick of Blue Blood Disease.”

“I’ll proceed right away.” Valerian quickly understood, though Killian did not give him details.

“The Duke heard about the epidemic and found out that it was like a symptom from the poison of the Kiellini family, he killed himself, being pessimistic after losing the secret recipe for the poison.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

“It’s a poison he made, so he might notice. Take care so he won’t notice.”

“What are you going to do with his will? There is no case of a great noble dying without a will.”

“I’m sure there will be a will that he’s already prepared: a will to his daughter. That’s enough. So you need to make sure the Duke doesn’t notice. We don’t know what he’s going to write in his will when he finds out he’s going to die. But to be sure, you’d better secure his will before you kill him.”

“The Duke won’t easily show it. He’ll start with a doubt.” Oswald shook his head.

“Before you kill the Duke, take the Duke and his daughter to the Vicern Temple so that the illegitimate daughter can be recognized as of the Duke’s blood. Get him a certificate of an adopted daughter. Now that the name on the family register has been changed, he will try to revise the will. Take it away then and check it out.

“You’re trying to proceed with the case of the will before the Duke dies. But… I know you actually want Regina killed.”

“How long will she last when her father dies? And I asked you to get a certificate of being an adopted daughter. I didn’t say I would let the world know that she was a bastard of the Duke. Just in case, I’m preparing it to prevent the Duke’s suspicions. Her father has kicked the chance I gave him, so my benevolence that I had tried to make her an illegitimate child, and the future that I had guaranteed her has gone away. She will live her whole life in hiding. But her mouth needs to be covered, so after the Duke changes the family register, put the magic of silence on her.”

“I didn’t know the Duke of Kiellini was this stupid. I can’t believe he threw his life away like casting away dirt. It would have been better for him to stay calm for his daughter.”

“He had more self-esteem and anger than his daughter. The fatherly love that he begged for in front of me was taken away and disappeared without a trace when he lived as a scarecrow. If it hadn’t, he would not have done this, ever.”

“So now much of the Duke of Kiellini’s property is going to Sir Raven? This is very bitter. I’m also worried about what will happen to Mrs. Raban.”

“No, I won’t let that be done. I made an illegitimate child who did not exist, and does it matter who the bastard is? Let’s just think slowly about who we’re going to turn into an illegitimate child by getting a “blood proof” from his living biological daughter.”

“I’ve met Sir Raven often at parties these days, and he’s been acting like the Duke already. I don’t know if he’s going to get into trouble before we think about it. He’s talking about moving to the Kiellini mansion soon…”

Killian’s brow furrowed at Oswald’s words. “Let’s leave him for now. Now, the first thing to do is so Julietta doesn’t get hurt. I’ll think about him after things are settled.”

“Well, what shall I name the Duke’s illegitimate child in the family registry?” Valerian asked him the most important part.

“Would the name be any trouble?”

The door was opened at the same time Oswald spoke. Julietta followed Ian, who came in with the tea and said, “Phoebe Stella Josephine Kiellini, please.”

“Julietta? I heard that you went to the treatment center.” Killian jumped up and reached out to escort Julietta.

“I’ve been there since the morning. I’m going to tell you that I found a suspicious person.”

With her hands naturally resting on Killian’s hands, Julietta sat down on the chair he led her to.

“Did you find the person who poisoned you?”

“Yes, it was Jane. She followed me for volunteer work and ran away as soon as she got a chance. Maribel’s men are after her.”

“How should I kill her?”

“You can’t kill her. We need to find out who’s behind her. I told them to follow her for a while.”

Killian nodded, as she had done well. “But why did you go to the treatment center while hiding your identity?”

“I’ll tell you that later. Instead, put it on the Kiellini family register under the name I gave you earlier.”

“You must have been thinking about this before.” Killian made a disagreeable impression.

“Yes, I’ve been thinking about it ever since I went to Tilia Territory and met Regina. But my last bit of conscience refused to do that, so I couldn’t ask you. But I am blocked by nothing because of the incident this time.”

“But, the princess, I’m sorry to say this, but Miss Phoebe’s past could seize your ankle. There must be someone who can recognize her.”

Despite Oswald’s concerns, Julietta’s resolve remained unshakable.

“Maribel will transform her. She’s the one who brought up so many actors. If she changes her speech, gait, behavior, and habits, no one will recognize her.”

“But what if someone finds out? You could be in danger.”

Against Killian’s opposition, Julietta looked straight at him. “Who are you going to make a bastard of the family of the Duke? Can you trust her? Are you going to use magic power again? No matter how many restrictions you put on it with the magical power, there’s no way it shouldn’t happen. I don’t want to live my whole life with that time bomb. But I also hate it because I’m nervous about Sir Raven becoming the Duke and wielding power. Who will be responsible for my aunt’s safety?”

“How can you be sure that she won’t betray you? If Sir Raven does anything that goes too far, I’ll put my hands on it.”

Killian also knew Phoebe was not a woman to betray anyone. As Julietta said, she was the best fit for the job, if it wasn’t for her past. However, he could not take the risk, because he did not know how many people she was exposed to in the brothel of Lebatum and the capital.

Julietta closed her eyes tightly and opened her eyes to beg for forgiveness. To persuade Killian, she had to say cruel things. “She won’t betray me because of that troubled past. It’ll work if I make a bigger weakness for the person who has my weakness, the seat of the Duke’s bastard. If she hides her identity from the brothel and takes over everything as the illegitimate child of the Duke of Kiellini, she won’t betray me to protect it.”

When Killian still didn’t answer, Julietta brought up the next solution. It was the safest method at the same time, though she didn’t want to use it if possible. “Please find Phoebe’s bridegroom among your trusted men. If he were to act as an agent for the Kiellini family, there would be very little need for Phoebe to show up.”

Only

Not attending a meeting or party was a matter of excuses. It troubled her mind if she had to get Phoebe into an unwanted marriage, but it would be safer and more protected than living in the Imperial Castle as her maid.

Julietta added after thinking for a moment, “It may be dangerous to fix a family registry under the name Phoebe. I’d rather use a different name.”

Sensing Julietta’s strong will, Killian finally nodded.

“Can I give you an opinion then?” Oswald raised his hand cautiously as the argument seemed to have finally reached a dramatic conclusion.

“Tell me.”

When Killian’s permission fell, Oswald opened his mouth excitedly. “Please include my cousin, Reynold, as a candidate for Miss Phoebe’s bridegroom. I think he has a soft spot for Miss Phoebe.”

At Oswald’s words, Julietta exclaimed in a fit of excitement. “Really? Really?”

She thought of Phoebe, who blushed slightly whenever she came into contact with Reynold by accident in class. However, Phoebe seemed to think that she could never dream of that, because he was a relative of one of Killian’s most beloved aides, the Marquis of Oswald.
