### Summary
The latest chapter delivers a stunning reversal of the previous climax, revealing that Duke Ishid Lucrenze did not commit regicide but instead saved the tyrannical Emperor from the palace fire. The true arsonist is shown to be Prince Cassian, taking a desperate, albeit belated, step to protect Raelle. This shocking twist has left readers confused and betrayed, questioning Ishid's motives for sparing the villain. The narrative immediately pivots to the core couple's dynamic, as the highly intelligent and perceptive Yunifer instantly senses Ishid's deception. Praised by readers for her sharp, no-nonsense attitude, she confronts him and easily coaxes out the truth, reinforcing their deep connection and his "puppy-like" devotion to her. Reader speculation now centers on Ishid's true plan, with prevailing theories suggesting he saved the Emperor only to ensure a slower, more painful death—perhaps using a magical gem he was seen placing on him—while simultaneously protecting Prince Cassian from the political fallout of patricide. The celebrated act of rebellion has become a complex strategic mystery, with Yunifer's astuteness as the key to uncovering the truth.
