When Count Bellacian was questioned by the Emperor, the Duke of Cassil was terrified. He feared that Count Bellacian would expose him.

"That pathetic guy! How are you going to take responsibility for this!"

Richard was dumbfounded. It was Richard who proposed using Count Bellacian.

But as soon as he saw that Count Bellacian was being ignored by Ancia, he judged that he was not worth using, and insisted that they should keep their distance from him.

But the Duke of Cassil ignored Richard's words. Then things got to the worst point, he put all the blame on Richard.

"You have a slave's blood, but you're still so arrogant."

The eldest son Frank, unaware of the seriousness of the situation, simply laughed at the sight of Richard being scolded.

"I thought you were smart, but I'm disappointed."

The youngest Neon also laughed.

"I guess he's at the end of his wit now. Arnold, isn't it time to throw him away? When it comes to resourcefulness, Neon is second to none."

The Duchess, who didn't even treat Richard as a human being, tried to drive him away.

Richard clenched his teeth.

This was what he has been hearing for ever since he was born to the point that he felt no anger now. Rather, it was more important to shut Count Bellacian's mouth.

The Duke of Cassil mocked Tenstheon because he didn't even notice the spy he had planted in the Imperial Palace. His temperament was no different from Frank's. He was nervous for a moment when Ancia kicked many people out of the Palace, but when the Emperor did not pursue it further, he was relieved again.

But Richard knew. The Emperor was not ignorant. He was just turning into a blind eye. He also supported his son while feigning indifference.

Even after Blake married Ancia, Tenstheon maintained the position of a bystander.

But things were developing badly.

Count Bellacian was frivolous and he was angry with the Duke because Frank had been betrothed to someone other than his daughter. There was a risk that he would betray them.

Of course, it was bullshit and he could easily be suppressed with power, but this time it was unlikely that the Emperor would side with Duke Cassil.

Richard tried to silence Count Bellacian before the investigation began in earnest. But the security was tight. He was nervous because he couldn't find a way to get into the prison and failed to hire investigators.

In the end, Gilbert Bellacian was exiled to an island and he didn't say anything about the Duke of Cassil. It was rumored that he had completely gone crazy.

The Duke of Cassil was relieved, and the tension surrounding them disappeared. But Richard was rather anxious.

'Count Bellacian became crazy? So suddenly?'

The Duke of Cassil had no intentions of marrying Frank to Diana, regardless of whether or not Count Bellacian carried out his orders. He planned to use Count Bellacian as much as he could.

But Count Bellacian was more incompetent than they imagined.

He had never done well, yet, he urged the Duke to set an engagement date.
