### Summary
The current chapter has ignited a fierce debate among readers by depicting the protagonist, Carnelia, reporting Prince Caesar's secret activities to the empress. Carnelia reveals that the prince has been sneaking out of the palace to train with mercenaries, an act that has left the audience deeply divided. One faction of readers is shocked and angered by what they perceive as a foolish betrayal, questioning why she would "snitch" on the very person whose favor she needs to survive her fated execution. They fear this will sabotage the prince's development and see her actions as counterintuitive to her goal of a peaceful divorce. Conversely, a significant portion of the readership defends her actions as a brilliant and necessary survival tactic. This group theorizes that Carnelia is playing a long game, acting as a double agent to gain the empress's trust by feeding her partial, carefully framed truths. They believe this is a calculated scheme to become indispensable, allowing her to manipulate the empress later. This interpretation is bolstered by comments from re-readers who assure new fans that Carnelia has a plan. Amidst the controversy, readers have also taken note of the introduction of a handsome new mercenary teacher and the villainous empress's beauty. The chapter's central conflict leaves the audience debating whether Carnelia is a self-sabotaging traitor or a master strategist.
