Nickolai walk in Dacia's courtyard with all of the soldiers behind him.
"Search this place." Nickolai ordered.
All the soldiers make a thorough search inside the crown princess' courtyard, while Nickolai with Sir Lawrence and an old physician beside him watch.
The soldiers scattered all of the stuff there without a care, as they trying to find an evidence against the crown princess.
A minutes later, one of the soldiers open up the closet inside the chamber. Rummaging through the pile of dresses, he saw something.
He took it out then bring it to the crown prince.
"Your highness...I found this inside the crown princess closet." It was a vial with liquid in it.
Nickolai remains unexpressive while Sir Lawrence was surprised.
The old physician came forward to verify the contents of the vial.
He took the vial, looking at the colour of the liquid and then took sniff of it.
His expression shown affirmation.
"Your highness, this is the poison that had been consumed by the holy priest." The old physician stated.
"Are you sure?" Nickolai asked. Wanting a confirmation.
"Yes, I'm sure." The old physician answered.
This time, Nickolai face turn grim. Even, Sir Lawrence look dismayed.
No one dare to make a sound.
As they felt the tension around the crown prince.
Nickolai then left the courtyard. Sir Lawrence and others had to follow suit.
Meanwhile in the prison, another old physician with his female assistants arrived.
Irene who saw them felt relief to see they arrival.
As she approaches the bar cell, both the physician and his assistant eyes widen to see the crown princess condition.
There were still traces of blood on her clothes from the whipping. Her pale tired face, dry lips and eyes that seemed to have lost their light.
Something inside their heart felt sympathy towards the crown princess.
"Please treat my maid first. My maid...she's losing a lot of blood." Irene said, not bothered with the way they stare at her.
Both of them quickly regains their thought. The old man looks to see Libby condition. Without wasting time, he began to treat Libby with the help of his assistant.
"Ahrrh!!" Irene heard Libby scream, knowing that they are probably started to disinfect the wound.
Slowly, Libby scream turn to whimpered as she holding on the pain she felt.
It took a while for them to finish the treatment.
After that, the guard open up Irene gate bar.
Seeing them came in, Irene struggles to get up so they can started their treatment with ease.
"How is she? My...maid?" Irene inquiries.
"She's...out of danger for now. Currently, she resting." The female assistant said.
"That...that's good. Thank you."
Hearing her thanking them, both the old physician and his assistant was stunned.
But not for long, as the old physician and his assistant focus to her injuries. Both take a look at her back. They saw how her dress was completely torn causes by the whipping.
"Your highness, we have to cut open your dress now." The female assistant said.
"Yes...just do it." Even talking, required her strength as Irene felt so weak.
Hearing that, the old physician didn't hesitate to cut the dress open.
Revealing the gruesome wound on her back. Multiple whipping mark that ripped pieces of her flesh. The blood had already dried up and a sign of redness around the wound which shown to be swelling.
For such a frail and small body as the crown princess, they couldn't imagine how much pain she's under.
The old physician gesture his assistant to hand him a bottle of liquid inside of it.
"Your highness...I will be starting to disinfect your wound. This will be painful." The old physician told Irene beforehand.
"Just do it. I can take it..." Irene took some of her clothes and put it inside her mouth to muffled her voice.
Seeing the crown princess resolve, the old physician then pour the liquid on her wound.
"Hrmmmp!!" Irene whimpered as she tremble, feeling a burning sensation to a more intense pain on her back.
Tears escaped from her eyes and her whole body started to sweat.
The old physician instructed his assistant to apply the ointment on her wound after he cut the dead tissue of the crown princess flesh.
The female assistant then bandage her body after she done applying the ointment.
Irene could only lie down on the ground, to take a rest.
The old physician and his assistant had done their job. As much they feel saddened with the crown princess condition, they could only leave.
The female assistant keep looking behind as they walk.
"It's best if you don't put your nose into someone problem." The old physician notices his female assistant behaviour, berate her.
"Master, I heard about the crown princess, how she was cruel and all. But looking at her in person, I don't see that at all. And she seems care about her maid." The female assistant comment.
"You should keep that thought to yourself. Our jobs has done. And that's that."
"But..."
"Stop! The crown prince has decided to abandon the crown princess. There's nothing we could do to help her. Her life and death won't longer matter to us."
While they took walk towards the exit, Lard, the head guard who was there, happened to hear them.
He looks rather pleased with that piece of information.
Outside the palace, one of the young maid from the crown princess courtyard wait out at the hidden alley. She looks out to make sure no one was there.
Sooner, an old lady arrived at that place.
"I have done what you asked for. The crown prince didn't suspect anything." The young maid said.
"Good, the young lady will be pleased with you." The old woman smile as she took out a small bag.
The young maid looks excited, accepting the payment.
"Make sure no one knows, or you'll face the consequences." The old lady warned her.
"Ye...yes." The young maid hurriedly nod her head, seeing the the old lady expression.
