The king ordered with a very polite tone, "Tell me your report."
Princess Moon replied, "The good news is the untitled heroes are from our kingdom and they are very friendly - they will not harm our kingdom."
The king said, "Oh, so they are from our kingdom. I didn't know such types of geniuses were hiding in our kingdom. Also, why are you not giving their names?"
Princess Moon replied, "Father, I have gained their trust and they asked me not to reveal their true identities to anyone. So please forgive me, Father, I cannot tell you."
The king became silent for a few moments. After hearing Princess Moon's answer, he replied, "Fair enough. You already know their identities, so it does not matter if I know or not. From now on, you will deal with them - everything will happen through you. Do you have any problems?"
Princess Moon replied, "No problem." "That's good," the king said, adding, "You can go now." Princess Moon left the king's hall.
When Princess Moon left, the minister with red hair appeared beside the king. When he appeared, the king ordered, "Tell me the details."
But surprisingly, the red-haired minister declined and said, "Apologize, Your Majesty, but I cannot reveal their real identities. I have given my promise to the young miss."
"How was my daughter able to detect you?" the king asked.
The minister replied, "My king, this was due to one of my negligences when I was protecting Princess Moon from the shadows. One day, a spy from the enemy kingdom was secretly chasing Princess Moon. After some time, he left. I thought he had found out the real identity of Princess Moon, so I quickly chased and killed him. On killing him, my spiritual pressure was released, which was sensed by Princess Moon - I was not able to hide myself from her after that."
The king said, "And after?" The red-haired minister told the king what happened after Princess Moon found out the real identities of the untitled heroes and made him promise not to tell the king.
The king asked, "And you agreed?"
The red-haired minister replied, "I had no choice at that time. I had to agree, otherwise, Princess Moon would have run into the depths of the Dark forest, making it difficult to protect her."
The minister added, "I cannot tell you their real identities, Your Majesty, but I can tell you they are from the Xiao Sect."
The king was surprised. "The Xiao Sect is hiding these types of geniuses? Why has the headmaster of the Xiao Sect not informed me until now?"
The red-haired minister said, "I don't think the headmaster knows about them. If he did, they would all be his personal disciples by now, and he would have definitely informed you. But because none of these situations occurred, it means the headmaster does not know about them."
The king said, "You are right. There is no way the headmaster would hide such things from me. Also, now I am relieved - if they are from the Xiao Sect, there is nothing to worry about in terms of their loyalty, because their families are part of the Xiao Kingdom. So they will not harm the kingdom, otherwise, they will also be harming their own families."
After this, the King asked about the current situation in the kingdom, which was relatively peaceful. After a few minutes of conversation, they dispersed.
On the other side, inside the royal palace of the Hell Kingdom (the enemy of the Xiao Kingdom), a beautiful woman with a red dress was lying in bed. Her beautiful curves were quite seductive, but if one looked into her eyes, they would feel a chill running down their spine. Her eyes were quite vicious, and her tone was commanding as she asked, "Are all the preparations ready?" A servant in the corner of the room replied, "Yes, master."
Then she said, "Let's wait - we will attack the Xiao Kingdom in two months." The servant followed the order and replied, 'OK master.'
After the servant went out of her room, a shadow appeared behind her. She was also in a red dress, but her red sometimes looked like a dark color which gave a feeling that she was wearing a brown color dress. This shadow asked, "Sister, why are you not attacking now? They are weak from eradicating the Crimson Cobra syndicate, so now is the right time to take their kingdom."
It turned out that the shadow was her sister. The current queen of the Hell Kingdom replied, "Sister, it's not that I don't want to attack, but there are some clans in the Xiao Sect who will betray the Xiao Kingdom. They need some time for that. If they really betray, our path of conquering the Xiao Kingdom will become more smooth, don't you think?"
Her sister agreed, "Yes, you are right. But be cautious. Individuals like them are pure evil. They are willing to betray their own kingdom for personal gain. If another kingdom offers them more, they might even turn against you."
The Queen replied confidently, "Don't worry, sister. I have no intention of allowing them to join us once we conquer the Xiao Kingdom. Once everything is settled, I will eliminate them to ensure they don't pose a threat in the future."
There was a pause as her sister contemplated this, and then she spoke again, "You are ruthless, but the idea is not without merit. Remember, I will always stand by your side, no matter what you decide. So, don't worry."
The Queen's lips curled into a small smile as she responded, "I know, sister. I am well aware that you will never abandon me. I also understand your aversion to war, but you're participating in this for me. I will forever remember this, my dear elder sister."
