### Summary
Continuing the clandestine operations from the previous chapter, Artezia executes a series of rapid, complex maneuvers that left the majority of readers admittedly confused. The chapter focuses on her efforts to build a covert intelligence network, or "spider web," by creating untraceable identities for her agents. Readers pieced together that she located a financially destitute nobleman, Sir Reksen, and orchestrated his divorce from his wife. She then immediately arranged a new marriage for him, effectively purchasing his noble title to bestow upon one of her spies. This grants her pawn legitimate access to noble society under an alias that cannot be traced back to Artezia or her cause. While the speed and opacity of the scheme generated widespread confusion, with many readers joking that they were too "dumb" to comprehend her "4D chess," there was also a strong current of admiration. Despite not understanding the immediate details, readers expressed trust in her master plan, praising her as a "TRUE Strategist" and enjoying the display of her "badass" intelligence as she lays the groundwork for future political battles.
