In the next chapter
Spoiler!
Titania baited Brian by sending a servant who informed him of a hurt 'golden wolf' that escaped to the palace to hide. Brian thought it was a good chance to impress the emperor by showing off his new catch. Capturing the wolf would be pretty easy since it was already hurt, so he decided to sneak out alone. However instead of a normal wolf, it was a huge golden wolf beast. This made Brian panic and scream asking for help. He runs away crying while the imperial knights and priests try to defeat the beast with their mediocre skills.Initially she planned to let Brian die, since he was a good for nothing who even ignored the age gap and wanted Vivi in the original. But the emperor cherishes him which would create more problems since Emperor is an idiot with power. Titania settles for making Brian embarrass himself and hide in shame. Brian pees and passes out in the underground maze.
βTitania waits for signal informing her when the Empress, Emperor and everyone she planned to be there were near her. Once she receives the signal, she throws herself in the mess and blasts all the monsters away with her Emoji sword which emitted a bright holy light (the sword has a glow option π). Everyone watches the demons turn into ash.After everyone arrives at the scene, they watch Titania kill all the demons with holy light emitted from the supposedly cursed sword. The emperor is surprised that Titania is awake. Titania says how she was injured at the very same place while fighting the beast(she wasn't fighting the beast at that time but she cooked up a story which emperor would like). She says evil spirits targeting the palace have gathered in the underground maze. She puts up a little PR for her emoji sword saying the sword could detect evil spirits and it spoke to her while she was unconscious, but the sword's power is weak so it can only talk to her when she is not awake. She says the sword spoke to her, asking her to wake up and save the palace from evil spirits, so she woke up at dawn and found the situation so serious before barging in. In between she internally commands the emoji sword to shine so the people will believe it's a holy sword due to the light effects.
Since the emperor couldn't call it demonic sword now, he diverted the attention to Brian asking why he was here. At this time, the high priest Illian (Duke's person) butts in and says he has been investigating the palace when he found Brian's palace full of baits used to lure beasts. Empress butts in but High priest shuts her up and frames her saying the priest whom empress invited before declaring the princess was cursed is a low ranking one without proper training. That is why Illian investigated the palace at dawn since he can't stay still is evil creatures are running around.

I like to post spoilers for the stories I find interesting because I don't have much time to read novel due to busy schedule you will find me in most romantic historical manhwa comment sections
