Chapter 39
Suddenly, one of the red -haired men who had been in trouble earlier turned to the right when I suddenly slapped him in the face. He knelt in front of me with the others with him who were caught.
"Who sent you?" I asked but like the past few hours, not one of them answered.
I froze with annoyance before kicking the one closest to me so he fell to the floor.
We are still here in the palace hall but the broken tables and decorations are gone and even the stains of the battle have been cleaned by the place servants. The injured were taken to the clinic and Lina was one of them and Lieutenant Jared accompanied her to the clinic while Trevas was in his courtyard and was currently being treated by the royal Alchemist.
I still don’t know what Trevas ’condition is because after taking him to the courtyard I immediately went back here to the palace hall to find out who sent the men to harass on a very important day for Trevas.
"How can you be sure that his highness crown prince Trevas is not behind this mess?" I turned to the man who spoke. He was wearing an expensive black coat and an expensive necklace hung around his neck while his fingers were full of rings with huge diamonds so the first time I looked at him I knew he was one of the nobles who invited to the grand ball.
Earlier the guests went home but there were also those who stayed to maybe watch the events and gossip and this man is already on the list of people I hate.
"What did you say?" I asked while trying to calm the anger that was building inside me.
"I mean, there's a good chance that his highness is the mastermind of everything because he wants to avenge us guests at this celebration"
"And why would he do that to you?" Sergeant min asked who was with me to interrogate the captured opponents. We were also accompanied by Colonel Jay who was silent while keeping a close eye on the captured opponents.
"I don't know, maybe because he knows we will never accept him as Crown prince and heir to the throne so he wants to disperse us" he said and I almost rushed him if Sergeant Min hadn't stopped me.
"We can't mess with them" Sergeant Min whispered to me so I tried to calm myself down. I know that this man has a lot of connection and power so the consequences are big when I fight him so I have no choice but to hold back.
But I will not allow it to always be like this.
If Trevas was able to live with those hypocrites, they would change me. I can tolerate being insulted but it's a different matter when the people in my life are the ones they hate the most.
I looked one by one at the nobles who were here today who were forcing Trevas to blame for what had happened and memorized their faces.
Someday ... I'll get rid of you ...
It was late at night when Sergeant Min and Colonel Jay and I finished interrogating the opponents and the remaining nobles got bored a few hours ago and the late opponents still did not admit who was the mastermind of everything. they are one and the sameumuwi.

"You should rest first Miss Alissa" Sergeant min said before handing a glass of water to me.
I am still here in the palace hall but we are no longer interrogating the opponents because Colonel Jay and I have already taken them to the palace chamber to be imprisoned but we will continue to question them tomorrow.
I leaned on the back of the sofa I was sitting on before accepting the water he offered and I immediately drank it.
"Is that really how nobles treat Trevas?" I asked Sergeant Min who was already sitting next to me.
Sergeant Min just nodded before bowing and staring at his hand.
"He's not doing anything about that?"
She sighed before looking at me. "It's not that he's doing nothing ...
... He can't do anything "
After Sergeant Min and I talked I went straight back to Trevas' courtyard to find out how he was doing.
It was midnight when I arrived at the courtyard but the surroundings were still bright and there were many royal palaces that I could not see going back and forth.
I walked into Trevas ’room and found there the royal Alchemist and the king sitting in the lounge and talking about what but they suddenly stopped when they saw me enter.
"Miss Alissa" the king called me so I bowed slightly in respect.
"What's his condition?" I asked the royal Alchemist. He first looked at the king as if asking if I should know about Trevas' condition but the king just nodded.
Trevas was poisoned ... For the second time ...
It was found out that the knife that hit his side while fighting was poisonous. That poison is called flame venom and it is very similar to the fire blossom poison that Vivian once poisoned him.
Trevas' poisoning is also a flower but unfortunately, this flower is rarer than the ice blossom flower we got at the bottom of the fangbei lake.
"Where is the frozen chrysanthemum flower located?" I asked the royal Alchemist while not taking my eyes off Trevas. Frozen chrysanthemum is the name of the flower that can only remove Trevas' poisoning.
"The frozen chrysanthemum only grows in the coldest places. You often grow in high mountains so it will be difficult for us to find that flower."
I turned my attention to him but before I could speak the king preceded me. "Don't worry Alissa, I've already sent staff to find that flower ...
... Sooner or later they will find that too and Trevas will recover "
That's what he thought.
