Men of the Harem (137 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 93

The day before arriving in the capital. La Til, Hyacinth, and Calain gathered to discuss how they would confront the impostors during the imperial audience the next day.

The plan they came up with was as follows:

First, Hyacinth, as a foreign emperor entering the imperial audience, would lay the groundwork by expressing gratitude regarding the Sadi incident.

At the same time, he would highly praise the “special envoy Sadi,” showering her with accolades, thereby creating an atmosphere where no one could cast suspicion on Sadi when she appeared.

“Those impostors and my brother will surely try to hide their panic and muddle through.”

Here, the plan split into two paths. If they pretend to know about Sadi, Hyacinth will say, “As it happens, I’ve brought Sadi along,” and La Til will step forward.

If they persist in acting as though they know nothing about Sadi, Hyacinth will propose hearing about Sadi, and again, La Til will step forward.

Either way, La Til would appear with her face concealed under a cloak, and Calain beside her would also be cloaked.

“Then, Lean and the impostor will likely say all sorts of things trying to extract information from you.”

“I’ll listen politely for a while, then sense something suspicious and press both of them.”

“They’ll panic and likely accuse you of being even more suspicious.”

“That’s when I’ll dramatically throw off my cloak and shout: ‘Of course you don’t recognize me! Because you aren’t me!’ Like that.”

“I’ll remove my cloak at that moment as well.”

Onlookers would murmur in confusion, but as previously arranged, the Grand Minister would step forward, declaring La Til’s aura pure and absolutely not that of a dark mage. Calain would also testify beside her, confirming La Til was the genuine article.

“They’ll deny it again, of course. That’s to be expected.”
