Chapter 326 - 326: What their enemies are doing part 1 (1/2)

[At Diana's hall]

[Muse point of view]

”Here you go, some of the financial report Mrs Gizzere manage to dig up in the past” [Cupid]

”Thank you Cupid for bringing it for us in secrecy” [Ceanu]

”No problem, still, would you care if I join the conversation. I might not be able to help much, but just by knowing what happen, I can act better in the future” [Cupid]

”So long as you keep in a secret” [Ceanu]

”Right” [Cupid]

Cupid, giving us the financial report of several nobles house and transaction history made by the first. She wrap it carefully with a kebab, and disguise such important doc.u.ments as a food wrapper. Thank goodness it's not dirty at all

While I did know they will help me, we must first assess the situation in hand. Ultimately

”It all boils down to power struggle between the first prince and Princess Diana. That much is obvious, and going down by the line, crudely speaking, those who get ahold of the heroes will be more favoured by King Estel, other nobles houses as well as the citizens to inherit the throne. Not to mention, other countries will likely support the one with the heroes support” [Ceanu]

”And obviously speaking, those kids are happily helping Princess Diana, with the bonds between them are practically that of a sibling. Knowing this, the first prince and those nobles supporting him have to search for alternative” [Crow]

”Which is us” [Liyana]

”Me. You. Rafiah, Principal Alice who have a good relationship with them, and...” [Muse]

”Don't sweat it. I know for a fact that even I am targeted by them. I mean, whenever you see Singa, Savel and Charlotte, you will also see me as well” [Cupid]

”I'm sorry, but how so?” [Crow]

”Well, it isn't that obvious to me at first, but the reason why Mrs Gizzere forbid me from working as an accounting apprentice at certain noble houses is precisely because they are trying to get to my good side. Still, so far, their attempts have been mild, at least compare to Madam Duchess back in the past” [Cupid]

”I see” [Crow]

There are others as well. Kadeus and Lily for their relationship with Rean. The Syah family (Syah, Mimi, Borg, Lin, Ray, Mile, Kat, Blanc), as they're ”offered” with good jobs at the nobles estate. They even went as far as trying to adopt the younger orphans only for the orphans to be neglected in the end. Of course, we manage to save them, and in the end, the whole adoption process becoming even difficult for the sake of the orphans themselves

”Still. I am a bit lost here. I know for a fact that those who got ahold of the heroes will likely get the throne, but don't you think that the first prince is acting rather... nice?” [Cupid]

”In all honesty, yes. Even I myself think of the same” [Liyana]

”True, which mean two things” [Crow]

”Either he totally giving up on the throne which is next to impossible, or...” [Muse]

”Correct. He has something in his mind. Here, take a look at this” [Ceanu]

Sir Ceanu, while listening to our conversation, keep looking at the financial report that Cupid brought. He them pointed towards some transaction made by the first prince
