"So, the culprit is Prince Cassian. I didn't expect him to do this. But Princess… can you prove it?"
Hearing that voice, Elina and Isabella were startled. They turned to the side and saw a handsome man wearing glasses walking toward them.
A faint smile appeared on his lips as he looked at Elina and her mother with a meaningful gaze.
"Prime Minister Mikazura?" Elina was taken aback. "What are you doing—no, I mean, what do you want?"
Ever since the man in front of her had given her a special letter of permission to enter the Eastern Empire of Izanagi, her guard toward him had loosened slightly.
Even so, she was not completely unsuspecting and still questioned his intentions.
Isabella narrowed her eyes but quickly calmed down.
Mikazura stopped in front of them and bowed his head slightly to Elina.
"I'm sorry, Princess. It's not that I intended to eavesdrop; I simply overheard it by accident. Please don't misunderstand."
