Amelda confronts Clarisse and her friends. She mocks Clarisse for standing against her and calls their actions treason. Clarisse argues that it is wrong to sacrifice an innocent person, but Amelda challenges her “justice.” Then Amelda reveals her cruel plan: if Eugenie does not die, she herself will die, and she forces Clarisse to choose. She threatens to execute Madam Curno unless Clarisse sacrifices herself. After giving this ultimatum, Amelda leaves with her knights. Before she goes, Eugenie asks about her father, and Amelda coldly calls him a deserter.
Clarisse and her group rush back to inform Duke Maximilian. On the way, they confirm that Eugenie and Valentine are siblings. Their conversation is tense but also a bit humorous, as Eugenie focuses more on who is older than on the emotional shock. When they reach the Duke, he reveals that Madam Curno is actually safe because he had already arranged protection for her. He explains that Amelda cannot easily act against powerful noble families because it would destabilize the kingdom. Maximilian reflects on his past and his guilt about leaving his brother Lysander with Amelda. He realizes that ignoring the truth has caused harm, and now he decides to face reality and fight back. Clarisse suggests waking the collapsed golem, a powerful magical being, as a possible solution. Meanwhile, Valentine prepares to go to the capital with soldiers, and he openly declares that he has proposed to Clarisse, shocking everyone.
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
