The law of Fiction: Harem in the fiction world

The party went as well as planned after that. There were no conflicts now that the boundaries of this project had been set and dealt with.

Most of the nobility was very accepting of Zadkiel since he was their queen's choice and they adored her, but a lot of people were against him as well.

Those who supported Lady Freshia were particularly vocal about Zadkiel and his flaws. But despite all that, Zadkiel did not get triggered. He seemed used to dealing with pissy authorities and thier conflicts.

He even ignored the servant who had been bribed to make him drink a poisonous vine. The drink did not affect a divine creature such as an angel and that prank got unnoticed.

"Hmm, he's good. What do you think, Yohan? Is he someone we can use? I saw you follow behind him earlier."

Rui questioned Yohan, wanting to know more about him. She had no interest in Zadkiel beyond as a means to get the queen. But since Yohan was interested in him, she decided to keep an eye on him.

"Zadkiel is…interesting. He's someone who can be a good ally if he decided to take my side. If not, let's just say that some old scores will need to be settled sooner or later."

Yohan had time to come to terms with what Zadkiel had done with him but that did not mean he had forgiven him fully. Yohan was sure he would not be able to ever forgive what had been done to him.

Rui looked even more intrigued by his words and she looked down at the party. Everyone was happy and it soon came to an end.

The only one disappointed by all of this was Freshia and Huye. They both had not been able to achieve what they set out to do. It was a shame but it had to be expected.

Moreover, Freshia's reputation had fallen considerably after the stunts she had pulled today. It would be difficult for her to appear in high society for some time. But that was only if she even understood what had happened to her.

As far as Freshia was concerned, she had made a lasting impact on society and shown everyone that she still had money and status under her belt.

So it was normal that the next morning, Freshia chose to complain about what happened to Rui. Rui was the one person who was on her side through all of this.

"Rui, can you believe the audacity of that bitch, Zadkiel? Not only did he appear at *my* party but he also ignored me. What should I do with him."

Rui heard Freshia complain and he could not help but scoff.

'Your party? As far as I remember, it was my money that was spent and my name that was printed on the invites. So when did it become your party?'

Rui's thoughts were dark but she had a smile on her face. She could not discard Freshia for now since it would not help her plans. If the queen had even a little bit of affection left for Freshia, then it was worth using her.

"I hear you Freshia and I feel so sorry for you. I would have kicked Zadkiel out had he not been the queen's envoy. You know we cannot do anything to the queen and her people, right?"

Rui pit a sympathetic hand onFreshia's thighs to show her that she was on her side. Freshia looked happier with Rui's support and she also looked rejuvenated.

"You are right. We cannot do anything to Zadkiel because he's the queen's person but if he suddenly ceases to become to queen's man, then we can take him out right? Rui helps me out here. I will seduce the queen back to my side."

Freshia demanded this, not even aware how many people had their eyes on her position now. She had left her seat and now it was free for grabs.

Whatever the queen had seen in Freshia, it seemed to be exhausted by now. Freshia was nothing more than an ordinary lady in this realm but she seemed to not have realized this.

"Don't worry Freshia. I will help you out as much as I can. After all, we are in the same boat now."

Freshia looked happier and left the room. Rui maintained her happy smile until Freshia was gone and then threw her vase at the wall. She could not believe the audacity of Frehsia, calling her out like this.

Who did Freshia think she was to make decisions for Rui's life?

"Calm down Rui. Sometimes, you need to indulge the fools to take advantage of them. Now take a deep breath and calm down."

Yohan back-hugged Rui, calming her down. She could not believe she had let her temper get the best of her in such a situation. But still, the anger was there, brewing in her heart.

"I am as calm as I can be Yohan but it is not my fault Freshia refuses to understand her position."

Rui took in a deep breath, finally noticing that Yohan looked a little brighter than before.

"You look happy. Did something nice happen to you? I don't think I have seen you this happy before."

Rui pointed out, now jealous that someone had managed to make Yohan this happy except her. Her jealousy would have caused her to lash out, but Yohan made her calm down instantly.

As long as Rui had Yohan, she doubted that she would fall. But if she lost Yohan, Rui had no idea what she would do.

"On that notice, I did receive a special invite to visit the royal palace. You wanted to know what I talked to Zadkiel about at the party right? It was regarding this invite in my hands."

Rui looked up in surprise at the sudden appearance of an invite in her butler's hand. The invite had a royal seal, indicating that it was from the royal palace.

It was such an incredibly difficult thing to acquire but Yohan did not look like he was worried about it being stolen or spoiled.

"Yohan, you are a miracle worker. I don't know how you managed to get your hands on this invite but we should take advantage of this, don't you think?"

Rui was excited, mainly because Yohan was excited. She no longer had any interest in royal power and the power of its vessels.

"Hmm, I am sure we will soon have a great time ahead of us. But do you mind if we bring Freshia and her new friend with us as well? If we play our cards right, I am sure we can use them."

Yohan's offer was not one Rui liked but she could also see a point in playing the victim. Maybe the queen will like that flavor in her lover?

And if not, then Rui could always use those two as a shield to flirt with Yohan. She was sure Yohan would handle things for her.

"Sure, if that's what you want. You were the one who got an invite anyway, so you should be the one to decide what to do."

…………………

"My lady, we kept an eye on Lord Zadkiel and we saw him sending an invite outside the palace. What should we do next?"

The servant asked the queen, wanting to know how he should handle this matter next.

The queen had shown a particular fondness for this man but his queen was also wise and all-knowing. She would not let a particularly dangerous man roam free in thier kingdom.

"I see. So he chose to send a letter out, huh? Don't pay too much attention to it and continue to do your work. Whatever my consort decided to do, just let him do it. Don't hinder his work, do you hear me?"

The queen's order puzzled the worker. He had never seen their queen be this lenient before. People usually tried not to step on her foot too much, but this new consort had gone and done it all.

'But why does it matter to me what happens next? All I need to do is to keep an eye out for my queen's orders and everything should be alright. That is right, I just need to not think about anything.'

The queen scoffed at the worker who shut her mind from the outside world. The poor girl thought that she would be safe if she did this.

And that was how most of the people in this realm thought - their queen was the supreme end. Whatever she said would be followed.

And that is why she was interested in people who defied her words. The little goddess was someone who interested the queen so the queen took the little goddess's toy.

'I wonder what happened to that assassin who fell into this world all of a sudden? He was special, kind of like me. Now then, let's stop thinking about it.'

"My consort invited a guest. It would not be too rude of me to drop by this time, right? Let's see who is the person who managed to persuade my consort to hand them the invite for here. I am so curious."

The queen stepped down, ready to make her way out in her chosen vessel for the day.
