“I guess Grand Duke Epinhardt isn’t in his room.”

“Well, he told me I could walk around the palace in comfort. As you said, he isn’t here——” Before she knew it, Evangeline collected the books and piled them up nicely on the desk. “—then I met you, Your Highness. I’m so lucky.”

She sat across Apollonia and stared at her intensely.

“Did you want to meet me?”

“Yes. I think you are a very interesting person.”

For a moment, Apollonia thought Evangeline’s eyes had sparkled as they did when she saw the book a while ago.

Evangeline was examining her as if Apollonia was one of her interesting monsters.

No one in the palace looked at her with such a gaze.

“Do you know me?”

Evangeline laughed.

“Of course. You are the infamous princess who was engaged and broken up six times. You are Apollo’s descendant but with burns in her arms. And….”

She recited information about Apollonia, casually spitting out words that would offend any princess.

“And?”

“Ah. And, you’re also the one running the top largest business in this Empire as Lady Idena.”

Evangeline announced Apollonia’s biggest secret with a bright, innocent smile.

“You are the two-faced princess. I really wanted to meet you in person.”

“What did you say?”

“You are Lady Eileen Idena, the wealthiest lady in this continent. You are the true puppet master behind the Crown Prince and the Grand Duke’s duel earlier. You are the one who discovered Count Buiche and raised Archduke Epinhardt when he lost both parents.” Evangeline went on with a smile.

She still looked pure, but she must know how big of a secret she had uttered given that she lowered her voice.

For a moment, Apollonia’s entire being stiffened.

“Milon’s Eye.”

She heard that it could penetrate a person’s most hidden secret.

However, she could not have imagined that Evangeline would know a lot about her no matter how hard she tried to cover her tracks.

How did ‘Milon’s eye’ even work when Apollonia took great care of hiding her secrets so that nothing would leak out?

Did she have a spy around her?

As if she had read her mind, Evangeline laughed and said, “Don’t worry, Your Highness. No one has ever betrayed you so far.”

“You’re just saying that,” Apollonia said.

Since Evangeline didn’t bother hiding the information she knew, Apollonia decided to adopt the same attitude.

Evangelin laughed once again.

“You already know who I am so I didn’t bother hiding the fact.”

As the two princesses faced each other, copper and blood-red eyes met.

Despite raising their guard up against each other, there was this strange interest and a little like between them.

“I heard that ‘Milon’s Eye’ uses magic. I find it amazing that you know things that people barely talked about.” Apollonia said in admiration.

“There are all kinds of rumors out there. I am just an ordinary person, Your Highness.”

If that were true, then did all ordinary people in the world freeze to death?

This wasn’t just because she was ‘Milon’s eye’.freeze

A lot of people had witnessed Evangeline riding a winged worse and saw her being sarcastic with the Emperor and the Crown Prince.

Those who hadn’t seen her do these things in person would have never believed it happened.

“Even if I tried to solve the mystery, I still couldn’t understand the principle behind it.”

“Is that so?”

“Because it doesn’t make sense that you, an eastern princess, will be the first to know that a rebellion will occur in the Arman Kingdom located on the Western continent.”

“Oh, that’s right. It was a secret that I sold to the King of Arman at a high price.”

Evangeline laughed a little louder.

Her chocolate-brown hair, tied in a high ponytail, shook from side to side.

“However, you’re the amazing one to me.”

“Why?”

“I admire your intelligence reports… or should I say, your insight. Aside from you, nobody had figured out that ‘Milon’s eye’ was a member of Rajan Kingdom’s Royal Family.”

Evangeline scrutinized Apollonia with interest as if she wanted to crack her head open to see what was inside.

That’s good.

Now, Evangeline had no choice but to listen to Apollonia.

She glanced around the library to see if someone else was there aside from them.

There was no one.

The development was faster than she originally planned and it was the perfect moment to talk about important things.

“If you knew me, then you also knew I was looking for you.”

“Well, everyone is looking for me,” Evangeline said without erasing the mysterious smile on her lips.

“Everyone wants the same thing. ‘Milon’s Eye’ is of great value.”

She paused for a moment and went on.

“Yet, it’s impossible to measure it with money.”
