Chapter 124
Undercover Infiltration Duchess
Midday Lake Party (5)
âEdmond would be jealousâ¦.â
Was it a problem that she said she wanted to ride a boat? Ezet looked at Edmond and Marchioness Spencer, sitting in a white chair in the distance. Edmond waved to see if he knew Ezet had turned around even though his face was so far away that he couldnât see it. Ezet also waved along.
âThe Duchess of Jaxen really loves her husband.â
âNo, but Iâm sorry. He came all the way here for me, and I was the only one on the boat who left Edmond aloneâ¦â
âThatâs the proof that you love your husband.â
The Empress tilted her head with a smile in her eyes. The fan had already been neatly placed on their knees from the moment they started talking to Daniel. Countess Harrington sighed lightly and shrugged.
âHer husband said that. The Duchess of Jaxen gave her husband, cursed by a dragon and turned into a monster, to a person who was endless enough to turn it back into humanity. What have I done?â
âOh, my God.â
âThatâs why I gave it back to him. Donât say that until after you buy the $4.9 billion diamond.â
âGood job, Countess Harrington.â
âThe Emperor does not say that to Her Majesty, does he?â
âBecause he is a man who doesnât say that heâs married.â
âI envy you, I reallyâ¦â¦ I think Iâm the only one who got married wrong here.â
âAhahaâ¦â
Ezet could not laugh. This is because the story of the Empress and Countess Harrington was not true.
Edmond has never been cursed, and it was also a new lie that Ezet lifted the curse with love.
She acquiesced because believing that was the way to explain the three-year absence, but lying was also guilty.
Danielâs glance at her from the side was felt. Somehow, Ezet, who felt nervous, decided to change the subject quickly.
âWell, there! Your Majesty. Whatâs that white dome in the middle?â
âOh, thatâs right. I didnât explain that.â
When the Empress beckoned, Daniel changed the direction of rowing and attached the boat to the side with the white dome. From a distance, she thought there was something like a monument in the marble dome, but when she looked closely, it was a mirror made of rock.
Because of the phrase written below, it was perceived as a âmirrorâ that looked as hard as granite mixed with black and grey.
âThe Mirror of Truth.â
âMirror of truth?â
âYes, one of the imperial treasures.â
âOh, my God, that rock is a treasure?â
âYes, the first emperor brought from the Dragonâs tomb when this empire was founded.â
Thereâs a magical tool here, too. Ezet looked in the dark, bouncy rock mirror, which looked like it wouldnât even make a single statue.

âIn ancient times, this mirror was used to judge.â
âOh, the trial in the mirror?â
âYes, when you ask a question to a mirror, it tells you whether itâs true or false.â
The Empress explained that when the judge asked the sinner if he was truly guilty or not, the mirror covered him. However, if various lies were mixed up, the truth could not be adequately determined, and later the judge made a misjudgment, so he stepped down from the court and left it in the lake.
âUsually, we leave the Palace lake open; the lovers row all the way here to see their compatibility.â
âOh, if the compatibility is not good, theyâll fight each other.â
âWhoa, the power to mask the truth is now much weakened by excessive use. Itâs just to make you feel better.â
âI see.â
Itâs a magic mirror that masks the truth. It was a very mysterious thing. Ezet looked still at the black rock. It is a clear day to shine in the sky with warm sunlight and transparent lakes, but nothing was reflected in the rock mirror.
âRight. Shall we test it?â
âWhat?â
âMarquis Spencer, please put the boat on the side.â
At the request of Countess Harrington, Daniel quietly glued the boat to the side of the dome. It was as far as reaching the lower part of the rock mirror when reaching out on a boat.
âMagic Mirror, answer me.â
When Countess Harrington talked to it, a light came to the surface of the rock mirror that was bouncing off. It seemed that the idea of magical tools was not false.
âWhat is the compatibility between Count Wing Harrington and Countess Jasmine Harrington?â
Is she looking for compatibility with her husband? Ezet looked still in the mirror. Glittering light gathered on the mirror and floated the number â60â.
â60%.â
âYou canât be compatible with your husband.â
âHuhu, but itâs not normal enough that weâve been doing well so far without any major accidents.â
âOh, what about the Empress?â
âYou want to see my compatibility?â
The empress smiled thickly and asked, and Countess Harrington turned her eyes, whimpering. The Empress was at the age of 50, and Countess Harrington was only thirty or so. Neither status nor years of experience were compared, so Countess Harrington turned an arrow to Ezet.

âIsnât the Duchess of Jaxen curious about her and her husbandâs suitability?â
âWhat? No, Iâmâ¦.â
âCome to think of it, Iâm curious, too. I know that the mirror of truth has never floated 100 in harmony.â
It is obvious to distinguish simple truths from lies, but the more intertwined interests there are, the less reliable the mirror of reality is. This is because there are facts that can be true or false depending on interests.
For example, when a man and a woman who hated each other said they fell in love, the mirror of truth âhated each otherâ and ânever loved each otherâ were perceived as contradictions, resulting in a twist. Thatâs why the mirror of truth stepped down from the judge.
