"What is this?" The king gritted his teeth, glaring at Anna's teacher, Josephine. He was angry after reading the documents Josephine provided. After all, it stated the Count ended up paying for everything.
It wasn't supposed to happen. Anna should have fallen into the Royal Family's hands. Yet, no one could say a thing about what happened to the Count.
Their spies, two peak Spirit Wielders, had died on duty. The Count and his wife had died due to suicide.
How could he believe such a report? Something must have happened, and it was possible that Anna managed to trick the two of them, allowing her to take them down. After that, the Count was killed in order to mess with the truth.
As for the successor, the first son of Count Swirzel, he was afraid of Anna's retaliation, so he gave fake news to the Royal Family. The trauma Anna inflicted was far greater than one's imagination.
