Chapter 172: The Quest for Healing

---Lionar Kingdom, Royal Palace---

Zina's heart pounded with anticipation as she stood in the grand hall of the royal palace. Over the past month, she had tirelessly worked to gather power and support in her quest to reclaim her rightful place in the conflict for the throne against her sisters. With the assistance of Rokia and the backing of the influential Parada family, Zina had made remarkable progress.

The Parada family, one of the six ancient families, held great sway despite their limited involvement in politics. Their reputation for ruthlessness and their position as powerful figures on the continent made others eager to stay on their good side. As rumors spread about the Parada family supporting Zina's cause, disillusioned supporters began to rally behind her, seeing her as a true leader worth following.
