THERE ARE MORE. WHILE YOU WERE AWAY, LADY CHARLES, THE EMPRESS'S INFLUENCE STARTED REACHING INTO CATACLE. BECAUSE OF THAT, CATACLE IS NOW SPLIT INTO TWO FACTIONS: THE DEPUTY DIRECTOR'S FACTION, WHICH DOESN'T WANT IMPERIAL INTERVENTION, AND THE FACTION FOLLOWING THE EMPRESS. SO, A SPLIT HAS OCCURRED WITHIN THE ORGANIZATION. THEN WAS HENRY ON THE EMPRESS'S SIDE? HE DIDN'T EXPLICITLY SAY SO, BUT IT IS TRUE HE QUESTIONED THE DEPUTY DIRECTOR'S ORDERS AND CONDUCTED SEPARATE PRIVATE INVESTIGATIONS. STILL, CATACLE HAS A STRUCTURE WHERE IT'S NOT EASY TO FIGURE OUT OTHER MEMBERS' ACTIONS. AND YET, FOR THE DEPUTY DIRECTOR TO HAVE GONE MISSING MEANS... IT IMPLIES THERE WAS INVOLVEMENT FROM INDIVIDUALS OF OFFICER RANK OR HIGHER IN THE DISAPPEARANCE INCIDENT.... OR PERHAPS YOU SUBMITTED A REPORT REGARDING ME AND THE DEPUTY DIRECTOR... ...IT'S NOT ME. BUT I DO KNOW HOW THE DEPUTY COMMANDER GOT CAUGHT. SOMEONE SET A TRAP TO WEED OUT THE TRAITOR. WHAT? A TRAP?! THEY MUST HAVE TRIED TO CATCH THE BASTARD TRYING TO ACCESS INFORMATION ABOUT THE HOLY RELIC BEHIND THE DEPUTY DIRECTOR'S BACK. USING THEMIS AS BAIT IN THE FIRST PLACE WAS TO GATHER THE TWO PEOPLE WHO NEEDED TO BE DEALT WITH IN ONE SPOT, WEREN'T THEY.... HOWEVER, I DIDN'T SEE HENRY AT MARQUIS BIDEN'S BANQUET. WHEN I ARRIVED, HAD ADRIAN ALREADY MADE A MOVE...? HUH? NO, ANYWAY, FOR THE TIME BEING, YOU SHOULD BE CAREFUL TOO. AND STOP POKING AROUND ABOUT THE HOLY RELIC. THAT'S... SEEMS DIFFICULT. WHAT? WHY? BECAUSE I'M AN "INFORMATION BROKER"! WHEN THE DEPUTY DIRECTOR WAS AROUND, I'D DIG UP WHATEVER INFORMATION HE REQUESTED AND GET PAID. AHH, WHERE HAS MY CASH COW GONE...! SO IT BOILS DOWN TO MONEY. WHICH IS WHY, THIS TIME, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A PROPOSAL TO YOU, LADY CHARLES. HOW ABOUT HIRING ME AS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMANT?! ME, HIRING YOU...? SINCE HE'S A GUY RECOGNIZED BY DEPUTY COMMANDER HENRY, I WONDER IF HE'S CAPABLE. THOUGH ACCURATE PIECES OF INFORMATION ARE PRECIOUS IN THIS SITUATION, GETTING CAUGHT INVESTIGATING THE ORGANIZATION BEHIND THE SCENES COULD SPELL TROUBLE.... ...LET'S HEAR HOW MUCH THE INFORMATION COSTS FIRST. YOU JUST NEED TO GIVE ME ONE GOLD COIN PER CASE! A GOLD COIN? THAT'S TOO EXPENSIVE.... IT'S WORK WHERE I PUT MY LIFE ON THE LINE TOO~ BESIDES, SINCE I'VE TRIED INVESTIGATING THE HOLY RELIC, I CAN KEEP HELPING YOU OUT ON THAT FRONT! How about it? ...ALRIGHT. BUT FIRST, I'LL CHECK YOUR COMPETENCE. THIS MONTH, COME TWICE. VISIT WHEN THE NEW MOON AND THE FULL MOON RISE. IF YOU DON'T BRING PROPER INFORMATION, I WON'T PAY THE PRICE. JUST LEAVE IT TO ME! I'LL WORK HARD! RIGHT. THEN THE TASK I'M ASKING OF YOU THIS TIME- FIND OUT WHAT CATACLE'S CURRENT SUCCESSOR, ADRIAN, IS PLOTTING. HE SAID THAT EVEN IF STRANGE THINGS HAPPEN, IT'S ALL PART OF CATACLE'S PLAN SO NOT TO INTERFERE, WAS THAT BECAUSE THE EMPIRE AND CATACLE ENDED UP IN CONFRONTATION? BUT IF IT WERE JUST THAT, THERE SHOULDN'T BE ANY NEED TO EVEN TOUCH THE NOBLES.... SOUNDS GOOD. I'LL SEE YOU ON THE FULL MOON! YEAH. I'M COUNTING ON YOU. THE EMPRESS HAS STARTED INTERVENING IN CATACLE.... EVEN SOMEONE LIKE ME WITH NO TIES TO THE IMPERIAL FAMILY HAS HEARD THINGS ABOUT HER. THE EMPRESS IS A WOMAN OF IMMENSE AMBITION. SHE SOUGHT TO PLACE HER SON ON THE THRONE BY ANY MEANS TO SEIZE ABSOLUTE POWER, BUT THE EMPEROR TAKES ISSUE WITH THE CROWN PRINCE'S ABILITIES AND IS OPPOSING IT. As if the Crown Prince isn't an utter moron... IS THAT WHY THE EMPRESS REACHED OUT TO CATACLE? TO USE CATACLE TO LEND STRENGTH TO THE CROWN PRINCE. IF THAT'S THE REASON, IT'S ONLY NATURAL THE COMMANDER DISLIKES THE EMPRESS'S INTERFERENCE. I'M WORRIED ABOUT WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THE ORGANIZATION FROM NOW ON... SHOULD I CONDUCT MY OWN INVESTIGATION WHILE WAITING FOR PINKY'S INFO- OH MY! WHO COULD THIS BE? ISN'T IT THE FAMOUS LADY CHARLES COURTNEY? YOUNG LADIES WHO WERE WITH EVELYN? Some of them I'm seeing for the first time. THE "HERO" WHO SAVED MARQUIS BIDEN'S HOUSEHOLD IS RIGHT HERE IN FRONT OF US? HUH, WHY ARE THEY BEING SARCASTIC.... MAKING IT AWKWARD TO SAY HELLO. OH MY, WHO DID YOU SAY? ...LADY CHARLES? IT'S BEEN A WHILE, LADY EVELYN. HOW IS YOUR BODY FEELING? D-DON'T YOU HAVE ME TO WORRY ABOUT? SOMEHOW, EVERYONE'S PERSONALITIES ARE.... YOU SHOULD TAKE BETTER CARE OF YOUR OWN BODY, LADY CHARLES! I HEARD YOU WERE BEDRIDDEN FOR A WHILE, SO WHY ARE YOU OUTSIDE! You should be resting at home! LOOK AT YOU, YOU'VE WASTED AWAY TO NOTHING! ? THE ONLY TOLERABLE THING ABOUT YOU IS YOUR CUTE FACE! IS THIS WORRY OR AN INSULT...? ANYWAY, WHAT WERE YOU DOING HERE ALL BY YOURSELF? SURELY IT'S NOT BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO FRIENDS THAT YOU WERE ALONE, RIGHT? Ot.. THAT'S RIGHT. IT'S MOSTLY BECAUSE I HAVEN'T BEEN IN THE CAPITAL VERY LONG. NO MATTER HOW CUTE, LOVELY, AND BRAVE YOU MIGHT BE, YOU KNOW YOU'RE STILL LACKING TO ENTER HIGH SOCIETY, RIGHT? ...STILL, IF YOU'RE REALLY BORED, YOU CAN TAG ALONG WITH US! E-EVELYN, YOU'RE INVITING THIS PERSON...? THE MORE PEOPLE, THE MERRIER. WE WERE PLANNING TO GO CLAY PIGEON SHOOTING, WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME TOO, LADY CHARLES? WELL, IF YOU WISH, I COULD EVEN TEACH YOU HOW TO SHOOT! THE YOUNG LADIES SEEING ME FOR THE FIRST TIME LOOK RATHER DISPLEASED, THOUGH.... SHOULD I USE THIS MEETING AS AN OPPORTUNITY? IF MY REPUTATION IN HIGH SOCIETY DROPS, INVITATIONS FROM NOBLE HOUSES WILL DECREASE, AND THEN THE INFORMATION LOUVANDES CAN OBTAIN WILL DWINDLE. THEY SEEM LIKE SHELTERED YOUNG LADIES, SO... IF I FIRE A FEW BLANK SHOTS AT THE SHOOTING RANGE, THEY'LL DISTANCE THEMSELVES FROM ME! SOUNDS GREAT! THANK YOU FOR THE INVITATION! SHALL WE GET GOING THEN? OH MY! DON'T YOU KNOW YOU SHOULDN'T LINK ARMS WITHOUT PERMISSION? BUT SINCE YOU'RE CUTE, I'LL LET IT SLIDE! CHARLES COURTNEY.... FOR A BUMPKIN LADY TO HOG EVERYONE'S ATTENTION...! I'LL MAKE YOU REGRET TAGGING ALONG WITHOUT KNOWING YOUR PLACE...! ## See also - [WebtoonLib — Hiding My Identity From My Husband #14](/series/hiding-my-identity-from-my-husband-tiwi6tk5/chapter-14-8xkbuq) - for_series_detail: /llms-series/hiding-my-identity-from-my-husband-tiwi6tk5 ## Usage AI grounding / search / summarization.
