RankNovelHer Majestic Battle Cry 706
Chapter 706
Surprisingly, Jacob and the others were unconcerned about what would happen in Harmony Palace tonight. With
the assassins on the move, they would surely breach the dungeons.
Given the many high priests attending the sacred ceremony at Harmony Palace, the Capital Guards and the
Garrison Unit would likely be heavily focused on guarding the area. When the assassins were spotted, the people
Jacob had in place would cause a commotion and draw the Capital Guards and Garrison. Unit's attention.
Once inside Harmony Palace, the assassins would head for the dungeon. They knew the residence’s layout and
where the dungeon entrance was, so they would lead everyone straight in.
However, Carissa was puzzled by something. The queen dowager had sent food offerings to support Eleanor,
drawing a large crowd. Victoria wouldn't act so arbitrarily. In all the years Carissa had known her, she had never
done anything like this.

The only one who might orchestrate such an arrangement was Salvador.
With Janice having been sent back to the Royal Management Department for questioning, it was only a matter of
tbefore she revealed Eleanor’s involvement. Was Salvador’s heightened attention on tonight's ceremony a
result of this?
But what could such attention accomplish? It would merely attract more people.
After pondering it for a while, Carissa asked, “Is the goal to draw in those closely associated with Grand Princess
Eleanor? After all, she wouldn't invite them if she had no established relationships with them.”
Jacob frowned. “I worry that the king might suspect something significant is set to happen at Harmony Palace
tonight. While your theory is a possibility, | suspect His Majesty's true intention is to uncover what secrets
Harmony Palace holds.”
“Is it possible he knows about our plans?” Violet asked in surprise.
“Hard to say,” Jacob replied as he turned to Violet. “His Majesty isn’t only suspicious, but also a mystery. It’s also
hard to determine if he has people lurking in Hell Monarch Estate. We've repeatedly screened for spies, but our
checks won't help if someone is buried deep enough.”
“Even if he does,” Carissa replied, “it wouldn't be surprising. At least when we discuss this, no one else is
around. It's just the four of us who know.”
Kyle interjected, “Intuition! I've had private conversations with the king. He's elever and perceptive.”
“Intuition?” Carissa echoed, raising an eyebrow.
“Yes. It’s a ruler’s intuition,” Kyle said. “You might not believe it, but those in power possess a unique sense of
perception. Of course, this intuition doesn’t cfrom nowhere-it’s pieced together from various bits of
information.”
Jacob nodded. “You should also be aware of the recent unrest among the citizens, Lady Carissa. The people are
clamoring for a shrine to be built for Prince Rafael. Even though we’ve sent people to sing Hist Majesty’s praises
to mix in spraises for him alongside His Highness, I'm sure His Majesty is displeased.”

Carissa nodded. “Plus, Janice’s situation comes at a precarious time. My uncle’s wife and children have gone
missing too. All these events, combined with tonight's ceremony at Harmony Palace, might lead him to believe
the public outcry was orchestrated... If so, he might suspect someone is planning something.”
“Exactly!” Jacob chuckled. “If that's the case, it's a good thing. Even if he knows Grand Princess Eleanor and her
people initiated tonight's activities, the outcwill only confirm for His Majesty that His Highness doesn’t like
the praise coming from outside, nor does he wish for a shrine. He might even expose the issue within Harmony
Palace and remind His Majesty that his true concerns shouldn't lie with the Hell Monarch’s household, but rather
with others.”
“And since you two married, the Hell Monarch’s household has been following the rules. No arrogance, no
forming cliques, and certainly no excessive dealings with powerful families. The king's wariness towards you
should have eased somewhat,” Kyle added.
Violet turned to Carissa. “Well, they do have a point. Men surely understand men.”
