She was supposed to be escorted by him to the Holy Law Judgment Group of the Church of the God of Order for trial, but she was intercepted by Windsor.

And Forte, he could have disregarded Windsor’s orders and directly taken her, interrogated her, or handed her over to the Holy Law Judgment Group, but he didn’t do so.

Did he... discover the “Uniqueness” on her?

Or was there another reason?

Furthermore, Ciel in the simulation seemed to have met the Queen’s consort, a Pharos prince, who had not been granted the title of “King.”

His hair was gray, while the Queen’s hair was golden. Even going back several generations, there were no genes for white hair. But Princess Windsor had white hair...

Therefore, Ciel in the simulation suspected that Princess Windsor was the daughter of the Queen and Forte.

Of course, Forte couldn’t have not handed Ciel over to the Church of the God of Order because of this. Windsor’s interception of her was more like his tacit permission. The purpose might have been to use her as a bargaining chip to negotiate with some force.

These forces could be the Redemption Society, the Society of Merriment, or even the Church of the God of Order or the Church of the Savior Goddess.

After all, by obtaining her, they would essentially obtain information about the remaining sample...

The royal family even dared to bomb members of the Redemption Society in the Royal Medical Society and use the Society of Merriment to carry out a bloody purge in North Ansu. Whatever they did, Ciel wouldn’t be surprised.

But the most important thing now was that she had to extract herself and everyone around her from all these events, preventing all of this from happening in reality.

She couldn’t become anyone’s bargaining chip. She also didn’t want the people around her to be treated as lambs to be slaughtered on the negotiation table...

If she couldn’t stop it, then she could only flip the table.

She still had a little experience in flipping tables.

Click—

The sound of the door opening echoed. Ciel put down the notepad in her hand and turned to look at the newcomer.

It was Princess Windsor.

“Darling darling~”

A syrupy, high-pitched voice came from the Princess’s mouth. Ciel almost immediately associated it with the previous scene. A feeling of sourness surged in her stomach.

But at this moment, Ciel’s face showed a smile.

“What is it, darling?”

Ciel’s pink pupils shimmered, sparkling with stardust.

This address made Windsor completely freeze in place. After hesitating for a while, she took a few steps forward.

Had Ciel finally gone insane? How could she be so easily broken?

She hadn’t even enjoyed the pleasure of slowly twisting and dismantling the other party’s resistant mind... This sudden contrast made Windsor somewhat unable to accept it.

It was like you bought a box of building blocks or a puzzle. You struggled for ages to fit the first piece, and then you went out to change clothes and came back to find the puzzle already completed by someone unknown.

This was a fatal blow to someone like Windsor, who enjoyed “puzzles.”

“Who are you? You are not Ciel at all!”

Windsor’s face showed anger. She quickly walked to Ciel and stared intensely into her eyes.

Did the conversation break down with just one sentence? Such a poor mentality.

Ciel looked at Windsor, who was somewhat exasperated. The smile on her face became even more unrestrained.

But the next moment, Ciel’s face returned to its cold state. She slowly said, “Can you let me go now?”

So it was an act... She was just acting because she wanted to leave...

Seeing Ciel’s gaze at this moment, Windsor’s somewhat out-of-control face slowly calmed down. She put on her smile again and shook her head, saying, “That won’t do... You don’t completely belong to me yet. That won’t do...”

Seeming to remember something important, Windsor walked past Ciel and sat on the chair beside her. She looked up at Ciel and said, “Oh, right, Forte asked me to relay a few things to you~”

She wanted to see Ciel’s reaction of emotional collapse upon hearing the news. She was looking forward to it.

“What things?”

Ciel continued to maintain her cold demeanor and slowly took half a step back, distancing herself from Windsor.

“Your protector, Miss Lucy Silva, has been removed from her position on the board. You no longer have any protection, you know~”

“Oh.”

Ciel just nodded calmly, seeming not to care about this at all.

However, Ciel at this moment was deep in thought because of Windsor’s words.

Lucy?

She was removed from her position on the board for helping her? She chose my “organization” instead of Deton Group’s board of directors?

It seems Lucy’s luck is indeed bad. After all, behind me, there really isn’t any “organization.” It’s just me alone.

Choosing to get on the same boat with me will inevitably lead to various extreme dangers, and the only gain is being able to survive.

At this moment, Windsor also noticed Ciel’s indifferent expression. She secretly muttered to herself.

The information Forte provided is completely useless.

As if to break Ciel’s psychological defense more quickly, Windsor slowly opened her mouth, adding fuel to the fire:

“Amy Hastings, Adele... You know these two, right?”

“That sample is in their hands, isn’t it?”

“Don’t worry... They won’t be able to hide for long. Soon, their bodies will meet you.”

However, this embellished statement only earned Ciel another dismissive “Oh.”

Windsor took a deep breath. She no longer intended to use the information Forte provided to shake Ciel’s psychological defense. She planned to use her own method.

But for the Queen’s sake, she still had to relay everything Forte had said.

“Also, my sister seems to have seen a red-haired ‘Subverter’ who looks similar to you in Berren City... Do you know anything about this?”

Windsor said casually, not expecting too much. She just wanted to finish quickly so she could continue looking at the beautiful Ciel... continue to imprint her own image in her mind...
