Chapter 6: She's A Scary Woman!"
Clara Diana saw the incident with her mind's eye. "That man!"_ she saw prince Lexius on the second floor of Constantine's palace.
With her mind's eye, Clara Diana could see around the palace.
Clara Diana's heart was beating fast. She saw men in military attire on the terrace of the second floor of the palace. The man's eyes seemed cold, showing a cruel and merciless character. At a glance, Clara Diana could see that this man was the type of man who liked to toy with his prey before killing him.
But the man's handsome face covered his bad nature.
"Why is that man here?"_ Clara Diana was surprised. "Is that man one of the princes in this kingdom?"_
A girl came, "hmm, it looks like a princess in this kingdom!"_ . The girl lovingly took Prince Lexius' hand. For reason, Clara Diana felt annoyed, maybe because she had never seen a young couple making love like that. It that this couple is not embarrassed to be seen making out in the open. Clara Diana turned her gaze elsewhere. She hated that perverted couple.
***
Prince Lexius let go of Princess Amora's hand which was tightly entwined in his arm. He didn't like this girl. Princess Amora always acted spoiled to him. Princess Amora seemed to claim Prince Lexius as her lover.
"Put your hands away!" Prince Lexius pushed Princess Amora roughly.
"Ohh!" Princess Amora was shocked. Didn't expect Prince Lexius to be so rude to her. If it weren't for the wall behind her, Princess Amora would have fallen backwards.
"Prince Lexius...you...(so rude)", Princess Amora swallowed her last words, she was stunned to see Prince Lexius' cold expression which seemed to say "don't come any closer!" .
"Go… I want to be alone!" said the man coldly. Princess Amora was annoyed, she left stomping her feet. She hated Prince Lexius' change in attitude. In the past, the man was always kind to her, "Now why is he so rude!"_ the spoiled princess didn't accept it.

The Kingdom of Constantine was once a very rich kingdom, its territory was large and it controlled dozens of countries. However, since 200 years ago, due to the defeat of the war, Constantine's kingdom experienced decline, one by one the small kingdoms under him separated themselves, until finally Constantine's kingdom became small and poor. All that remains of this kingdom is the splendor of a centuries-old palace that stands tall and majestic.
Apart from that, there are government buildings and a city view that looks prosperous. Initially this kingdom was poor, poorer than other kingdoms under its rule.
Madame Butterfly and the mercenaries moved from the main courtyard of the palace to the backyard of the palace.
Madame Butterfly and her squad of mercenaries arrived at the main courtyard of the palace. The men couldn't close their open mouths, their saliva dripped down imperceptibly.
"How beautiful this palace is... beautiful and noble!" they muttered in awe.
Their presence at Constantine's court was like a dream.
These men on horseback smiled, enjoying the splendor and majesty of the palace. In their hearts they shouted happily, How lucky they were, to be able to enter the palace grounds. They never dreamed they could one day be in this glorious region. Constantine's palace was forbidden to commoners, let alone rough criminals like them.
They can enter this palace area by bringing a magic letter, this travel letter was obtained by Madame Butterfly from the kingdom's prime minister, Alexa.
These men did not know the contents of the letter, because they were illiterate. Luckily, when they came in, the horses they were riding were well-behaved towards their masters.

Madame Butterfly's group was given a place to rest in the building behind the palace.
Indeed, every time she came to the palace, madame Butterfly went straight to the back of the palace, meeting the head of the palace household, Mr. Gilbert.
"Open the cart!" Madame Butterfly said to one of the slave trader group members. Madame Butterfly's beautiful eyes widened, "Why is this lasso open?" Madame Butterfly was angry. Madame Butterfly looked into the cart.
Darlene's slave curled up into a ball, the lasso wrapped around her body, loosely open.
"I-I...don't understand, madame...", the young man was nervous, he didn't understand why the lasso was loose, even though the lasso rope was tied tightly.
The boss came, "Boss, I don't know why the rope is loose..." he reported nervously.
"Go!"
"Thank you boss!"
Madame Butterfly looked at the man who was a fake mercenary with a look of disdain. "Do you know why this lasso came loose like this? Did you swap this lasso?"
The slave trader boss swallowed his saliva. now he and his men were praising madame Butterfly. they glorify this woman. but this woman's rude attitude shattered his admiration. This woman's words are not as noble as her face.
"Huh. How could that happen? Didn't you yourself see how this lasso rope was used? and... you should know the reason why. The suction magic on the lasso rope was supposed to make this slave dry. But the magic didn't work. Is this magic weak?"
"This slave woman doesn't like an ordinary woman. I saw that she was able to hypnotize my men." the boss said turning the situation around.
Madame Butterfly raised her eyebrows. This man has a sharp tongue. He to be praising the female slave and at the same time belittling madame Butterfly
"He's impudent! Watch out!"_ Madame Butterfly's hands clenched into fists holding back her anger. She could magic this man to explode into dust
But she thought long. This slave trader could be relied on for her business.
Madame Butterfly became nervous, not about this problem. She saw prince Lexius on the second floor of the palace. The man watched her.
"Damn it. Why is he here? Does he want to make sure princess Darlene doesn't run away again!"_ madame Butterfly hated prince Lexius. the man did dirty things using other people's hands. the man took advantage of her and the slave trader.
Prince Lexius is known for his l and cruel character. Madame Butterfly goes awry. The Prime Minister wants Princess Darlene dead. but his son, prince Lexius, instead sold the girl to a slave trader. Madame Butterfly didn't know what Prince Lexius was planning. Does he want this woman to be tortured as a slave? Prince Lexius is crazy, he dares to defy his father.
Madame Butterfly doesn't care, she wants to do business. But the prime minister and prince Lexius put himself in danger.
Madame Butterfly looked at the messy contents of the cart. Princess Darlene is there. Tied up with mouth gagged and eyes closed. The girl is alive.
"Hmm! Close this cart again. Don't let it escape!" Madame. Butterfly said in a low voice.
"Yes, Madam...", the slave trader boss lowered his voice. He didn't want to argue with madame Butterfly. This woman is strong. He didn't want to lose a great business partner.
***
Madame lButterfly turned around again, she changed her mind. She said to the slave trader boss
"Open the cart, and untie the lasso!"
The slave trader boss was confused. But he carried out madame Butterfly's orders. Wasn't he paid to obey the orders of this angry madame?
Mr. Gilbert's four bodyguards came.
"Take that woman, lock her underground!" Madame Butterfly ordered.
The four men complied.
The leader of the slave traders was stunned, "How far is madame Butterfly's relationship with the higher ups of Constantine's kingdom? She can command those guards?!"_
"Extraordinary! She's not an ordinary woman...!"_
The slave trader boss admired Madame Butterfly again.
"What woman is she?"_ the leader of the slave traders couldn't stop thinking. No one would have thought that an elegant woman like her would dare to have a relationship with a criminal like him.
"This woman didn't even bring a bodyguard. Isn't she afraid that we will be robbed or killed... Oh I forgot... isn't she a powerful wizard! Hmmm. She must have a shadow army"_ This man was frightened, madame Butterfly turned out to be more powerful than initially thought. Madame Butterfly took advantage of criminals like him. And this woman benefited from the palace. "She's a scary woman!"_
Before facing madame Butterfly, this man felt superior. With his status, this man became rich as a criminal. It he is the king of criminals, international mafia.
He was feared and respected by international slave traders.
Yet a respectable woman like Madame Butterfly dared to trade with criminals, and she partnered with nobles.
"How about this!"_
Suddenly the slave trader boss became afraid. Now he dared to oppose madame Butterfly.
***
The four bodyguards lifted Clara Diana. each man held Clara Diana's hands and feet. They considered Clara Diana like a hunted animal. Clara Diana didn't realize she was sleeping. This girl didn't know that she was thrown onto the cold prison floor.
