My incarnation is becoming a global calamity.

Before long, the person Su Tu sent to deliver the message to Eve returned.

The news he brought was roughly in line with his previous predictions, advising Sophia not to act rashly for the time being.

However, during the process of his subordinates reporting back, he noticed something.

"Has Princess Eve gone out? I understand, you may leave now."

Su Tu waved his hand gently, and only after the subordinate who reported the news left did he lean back in his chair with a calm expression.

Based on the current situation, we can roughly guess why Eve went out.

It shouldn't be long before the royal family responds to the situation in Dongcheng District.

Of course, this is probably just one of the things Eve went to report to the palace this time.

What's truly important is the whereabouts of those eight corpses.

The matter of witches has always been the most important issue for the Empire and the Church.

The eight corpses emanated magical energy, indicating a strong connection to the witch.

Therefore, when the eight corpses were delivered to the imperial high command, they had already attracted their great attention.

Otherwise, the king wouldn't have sent his beloved daughter to personally oversee this matter.

You must understand that once something involves a witch, the person in charge must handle it properly.

If things go wrong, those responsible will inevitably face severe accountability.

Even though Eve was the king's only and most beloved daughter, the consequences were still very significant.

The empire is now ruled by the king, but he also has to be responsible to his subordinates.

If a king doesn't even punish his own daughter for making a mistake, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among his subordinates.

Once the hearts of the people are scattered, it will be difficult for the king to do many things.

In other words, if Eve messes things up, even though she is the king's daughter, the king will definitely punish her severely.

Now that those eight bodies are missing, the whole thing is on the verge of being a complete disaster.

If Eve cannot find the eight bodies in a short period of time, then she will definitely have to take responsibility.

So right now, the King and Eve's main focus is still on those eight witch corpses.

As for the matter in the East District, it's estimated that it needs to be resolved as quickly as possible so that all our attention can be focused on Ruis.

Su Tu thought to himself that the imperial royal family would soon be making a big move in the East District.

......

On the other side, after receiving the report from Su Tu, Eve immediately went to the palace to report important information to her father, the king.

That's how it is.

Eve briefly recounted how Rhys had taken away the East District and the eight corpses.

However, she felt the two matters were of different importance, so when she spoke, she focused on the eight corpses.

After she finished speaking, her gaze remained fixed on her silent father, wanting to see how he would arrange the follow-up plans.

Of course, in her mind, the most important thing to solve first was the matter of those eight corpses.

Rhys took the eight corpses and vanished without a trace, as if he had evaporated into thin air, leaving no way to find him.

No one knows what his main purpose was in taking the eight corpses away.

If there is indeed some unspeakable secret behind this, and it succeeds, it will inevitably be a huge disaster for the residents of the empire.

In comparison, she felt that her own face, the so-called face of the empire, was far less important than the safety of the empire's inhabitants.

The reason for taking away those onlookers last time was that there was no other incident that would harm the residents of the empire.

Only in this way will she put her own face and the face of the empire first.

Even so, after bringing those residents over, she treated them to good food and drink, fearing that they might develop resentment.

Even if you let them go, you should compensate them as an apology for restricting their freedom these past few days.

She even paid for the compensation herself, without seeking reimbursement from the Royal Investigation Team or her father.

In her view, since she brought the residents, she should be the one to pay for it.

As for the dignity of the imperial royal family and their own reputation, they are actually not important in front of the imperial citizens.

Simply put, other so-called important matters are utterly insignificant compared to the safety of the empire's inhabitants.

"Has the source of the problems in Dongcheng District been found?"

Just as Eve was thinking about how to find Rhys's exact location, the king suddenly spoke.

However, what he asked about was not the incident of Rhys taking away eight corpses that Eve was so concerned about, but rather the rumors circulating in the East District.

In an instant, she understood that in her father's eyes, her reputation and the face of the imperial family were more important than Rhys's affairs.

This made her frown slightly, and she opened her mouth as if to remind His Majesty the King before her to put the people of the empire first.

However, before she could speak, the king's words drifted over.

"I know what you're thinking, but I'll handle Rhys's affairs as I see fit. You should go and deal with things in the East District first."

After saying this, the king raised his hand and gently shook the bell on the table.

Strangely, the gently swaying bell made no sound at all, as if the world had been turned to silence.

Eve, however, did not find it strange. She simply sat quietly, as if waiting for something.

She even swallowed back the rebuttal she had originally intended to utter.

A moment later, the door opened, and a man who was as thin as a rake walked in.

He was very thin, so thin that he was just skin and bones, and there was no flesh on him at all.

But his steps were steady, and he didn't look like a weak person. He also had a strange kind of temperament.

"Your Majesty, what is it that you summoned me for?"

When the thin man opened his mouth, his voice was extremely hoarse.

Unlike others who faced the king, he spoke in a flat voice and did not bow.

"Xiaoying, you and the princess handle the matters in the East District. If necessary, have the church intervene."

The king did not care whether the thin man bowed or not, and directly gave him the order.

For him, this scene was nothing new.

Even the fact that he didn't have to bow was something he forced the thin man in front of him to do.

There was no other way; Xiaoying was very capable, and many things needed to be done by him.

Moreover, the things they do are usually very important.

If we bow to him every time, the time spent bowing could potentially cause irreparable damage.

Instead of wasting this time, it would be better to issue the order as soon as possible and get him to set off.

Xiaoying glanced at Eve, but didn't say anything more, and her figure slowly disappeared from the spot.

"Eve, you heard it too. We need to resolve things in the East District as soon as possible before we go find Rhys."

The king looked at Eve, his tone calm, but his eyes held an undeniable air of authority.

Seeing this, Eve didn't say anything more, just nodded silently and left.
