### Summary
The investigation into the conspiracy escalates with the direct introduction of the queen and her young daughter, Princess Yeriel. The queen confronts Selina and Calcion with a shocking political proposal: a marriage between the duke and the princess. This establishes the queen as a powerful and blunt new antagonist, though reader opinion is divided on whether her motives are driven by a pragmatic need for survival or malicious intent. In stark contrast, Princess Yeriel is depicted as a naive teenager with an innocent, fangirl-like crush on Calcion, completely oblivious to the problematic nature of the proposed age-gap marriage. While internally shaken by the queen’s directness, Selina manages to maintain her composure, her modern sensibilities clashing with the kingdom's acceptance of such arrangements. Duke Calcion is relegated to a more passive role in the confrontation, drawing criticism from some readers for being powerless to manage his own political and personal affairs. This development solidifies the narrative's shift into a murder-mystery, with Selina increasingly acting as a detective navigating a court where threats of violence are made with unnerving casualness.
