“Of course, | wouldn't dare to blatantly storm Madison’s mansion. | knew that every Moon Newborn Festival, her
mansion would invite priests, and the Royal Patrol and Capital Guard would focus on this area,” Lance said.
“So, | figured we could use the ‘intruder ruse to draw them to Madison's mansion, letting them handle the
rescue,” he added.
Lycan Erasmus pressed on, “Anything else you're hiding? Did you truly have no inkling of Madison's treason? No
idea about the armor and weapons stashed in her mansion?”
Lance looked up, calm and forthright. “No, | was genuinely in the dark. And Madison, a royal princess with only a
daughter-why would she plot treason?”
This question struck a chord with Lycan Erasmus.
He stared at Lance, a sharp glint in his eye, before motioning for him to sit.
As Lance settled back into his seat, Lycan Erasmus mentally sifted through all potential suspects.
He had his doubts, but most seemed unlikely.
The individual in question was often away from the capital, returning only due to Pandora's illness, with no
abnormalities reported from Blue Ridge State.
As for those in the capital—Aldrich and Howell were implausible candidates for treason. The other lords in their
fiefs, indulging in hedonistic lifestyles, were equally unlikely to plot rebellion.
But wait, Germain couldn’t be ruled out.
Germain’s second mating with a she-wolf from the Stephens family-a family involved in royal arms production
and the crafting of weapons and armor for the Royal Army-raised suspicions.
Yet without werewolf warriors, how could he possibly rebel?
The werewolf warriors were scattered across various regions, making it no easy feat to rally them.

The Doyle family was certainly no ally. Tad, newly in charge of the Royal Army and restrained by Alpha Bentley's
forces, couldn't be persuaded by Germain.
Given the current scenario, the most likely individual was sitting right there in the study.
If this situation hadn't been exposed by Lance, he would have been the prsuspect.
But things were different now. If Lance and Germain had colluded to orchestrate a rebellion and deliberately
unveiled Madison's secrets, it would have severely backfired on them.
No one plotting treason would intentionally inflict such self-damage.
Even considering past conflicts between Adelaide and Madison, Adelaide wouldn't use treason as a means of
revenge.
Moreover, it was undeniable that Germain couldn't command Lance's loyalty.
After reviewing these possibilities, Lycan Erasmus’s gaze softened toward Lance, though a trace of scrutiny
lingered.
He said slowly, “Whether Madison confesses will depend on the Ministry of Justice’s methods.”
“Anyone in particular you suspect?” Lance asked.
Lycan Erasmus hesitated, then said, “No. We'll see who Madison implicates. If you have someone in mind, speak
freely-1 absolve you of blame.”
Lance sighed inwardly. Lycan Erasmus likely already suspected Germain but wouldn't voice it.
Clearly, trust between them wasn’t absolute.
This meant the Ministry of Justice couldn't legitimately investigate Germain. If everything proceeded
clandestinely, Lycan Erasmus’s suspicions would further complicate matters.
After a moment of reflection, Lance declared, “I suspect Germain.”
“Why?” Lycan Erasmus probed immediately. “What evidence do you have?”
Lance shook his head. “No concrete evidence. I'm just voicing a thought as you asked.”
“Madison and Germain grew up

bond was exceptionally ylose. m

Lycan Erasmus cut in, “That's not enough. What about werewolf warriors? Who would he

collaborate with to amass their forces?”
Lance knew Lycan Erasmus was referring to the wolf generals commanding the legions.
At present, no evidence linked Germain to any of them.
But it was evident that Lycan Erasmus had begun suspecting these wolf generals and intended to investigate
along this line.

The first to be affected would likely be the Iron Thorn Legion and the Capital Outer Defense Legion.
Tension filled the air. Lance's cedar pheromones tensed slightly.
As the Ironthorn Legion’s commander, he understood its significance all too well.
The Ironthorn’s commander was himself, with Adelaide as deputy. The Capital Outer Defense Legion, meanwhile,
was led by Gamma Valens.
