As the queen spoke, she suddenly struck and landed a blow with her palm to Fressia's chest, causing Fressia to spit out blood and fall onto the bed. Fortunately, Fressia's body was quite resilient, so her injuries weren't too severe.
However, the queen wasn't about to stop there. She pulled out a dagger and aimed it directly at Fressia's chest, ready to strike.
...
Meanwhile, Oslo arrived at the imperial study, where his father, Odin, and two generals were waiting.
"Greetings, Father," Oslo said, bowing respectfully.
"Rise, Oslo," Odin responded.
"Thank you, Father. May I ask why you summoned me so urgently?" Oslo asked, curious.
Odin's expression was grave as he said, "According to our spies, Sebastian may have already entered our Twilight Empire. Are you truly confident you can handle him?"
Oslo was full of confidence as he replied, "I thought it was something serious. As for dealing with Sebastian, I am fully prepared, Father. You have nothing to worry about."
"Tell me your plan anyway, so I can be reassured," Odin said.
"Yes, Father," Oslo nodded and explained, "I have spent a great deal of money to hire five top-tier warriors, and I also brought in a master of formations who set up an incredibly powerful killing array.
"Additionally, I've enlisted the world's foremost poison master and the top weapon craftsman, who have crafted a hundred high-grade enchanted crossbow bolts, all laced with poison. If Sebastian dares to show up, he's dead for sure."
Seeing Oslo's confidence, Odin finally felt reassured. After returning to the eastern palace, Oslo hurried to find Fressia, only to discover a crowd gathered at the door and several bodies lying on the ground.
Shocked, he quickly grabbed a maid by the neck and demanded, "What happened here?"
The maid hastily replied, "Your Highness, an assassin has broken in, killed the guards, and even injured Ms. Fressia."
"What?"
