Anne was afraid that the tyrant would deceive everyone with her tricks and thus, lead the kingdom to its demise.
She wanted to let the people see Isabella's true face.
One of the tricks to do that was to spy on Isabella and reveal whatever bad deeds she did to the public.
Lizeth also didn't want the kingdom to keep suffering from Isabella's tyranny.
The people at the slums had always been the biggest victims...they needed her!
"Okay, mom, don't worry. I'll keep an eye on her."
Lizeth was close to the servants and maids at the castle because she was always kind to them.
She only had to ask the maids to be her spy to monitor Isabella movements.
After discussing things, Lizeth left her mother's bedroom and went to ask the maids who usually served Isabella.
"Dahlia, Aya, Sisi, I want you to keep an eye on the queen. I'm afraid that the queen might bully someone else or do some evil deeds behind our backs…"
Lizeth had always been kind to the servants, and the maids subconsciously believed her more than Isabella, who always treated them badly.
Although they also heard the news that Isabella was actually framed all this time and she's innocent, but her bad behavior to the servants still made them dissatisfied.
The maids immediately promised Lizeth.
"Don't worry. We won't let the tyrant have a chance to harm anyone. We will tell you if she did something suspicious!"
Of course, they would also tell Duke Fez because Duke Fez was now Isabella's legal guardian.
As for why they would tell Lizeth…
Lizeth was the only one who cared about Isabella's wrongdoings and had been trying to prevent the tyrant from hurting everyone.
The other princes and princesses didn't care much, afraid that Isabella would kill them on a whim.
"Okay, thanks all. I'll leave it to you."
After planting spies around Isabella, Lizeth left to see the people at the slums and delivered food just like usual.
At the same time, Mariella was busy exploring the castle to see whether they had a secret tunnel or something.
[Riel, w-why are you looking for a secret path?] Monica couldn't help but ask the girl.
She's acting too suspicious!
Mariella knocked on the wall brick for a few seconds as she replied to Monica in a calm tone of voice.
[Of course, it is to avoid getting captured by the rebels. If I can escape through the secret passage, I can still continue the mission.]
The rebels would be handled later on sooner or later, but Isabella's life was her first priority.
[It's just for precautions. I don't know whether the rebels will come or not, anyway.]
Seeing Mariella doing this for Isabella's sake, Monica was touched.
Mariella obviously disliked children, but she thought about Isabella that far….
Well, maybe she only wanted to finish the mission safely, but Mariella did care about Isabella's fate.
Since she was already assigned to this world and had to act as Isabella, why not try to give a better life to Isabella?
Although after the mission ended, the world wouldn't have any characters and would be free from the novel's influence…
She could still try to give a good image for Isabella in this world.
Maybe Isabella's real soul was already gone, already reincarnated to another world or was waiting to be reincarnated into this world after the world became free.
Anyway, Mariella wished she could do her best not only for the mission but also for Isabella.
Sensing Mariella's determination, Monica choked on imaginary tears.
[R-riel, you really care about Isabella…]
[...well, I don't like children, but I think Isabella has been wronged too much.] Mariella answered casually as she went back to her bedroom.
[All children deserve a good childhood. I only wish Isabella could have good memories in this round.]
Mariella didn't know whether the real Isabella would know about all of this, would experience the joy and any other things she did using her body or not, but…
At least, Isabella's name wouldn't be tarnished after the world broke free from the novel's influence.
After all, Monica said that the world would continue to move on like usual, but most characters mentioned in the novel would have a different fate.
After this round, when the characters died, they wouldn't continue replaying the plotline and would disappear.
They would either reincarnate as someone else in this world and lose all their previous lives' memories or get reincarnated in another world.
All in all, this world wouldn't revolve around the same characters again and again.
New souls would be born. New people would appear, and the world's trajectory would be unpredictable.
The time trapped inside the novel's plot line would also start to move smoothly.
The world would become a real, stable world.
Mariella wished all the best for people in this world because they're no longer just novel characters but a real, living being.
[Let's do our best to help these people, ] Mariella murmured to Monica in her mind.
After that episode of trying to find a secret passage, a few days passed in a flash.
But even after reaching the rebellion day mentioned in the novel…the rebellion didn't happen.
Everything was fine, but the novel plotline had deviated further away from the original plotline.
Isabella's execution was one of the crucial scenes in the novel, a turning point.
Yet it didn't happen.
One could imagine how the plot would unfold from now on.
Gary, Theo's system assigned to him in this world, immediately shared the news.
[Young master, good news! The plot deviation has increased to 30%! It's now slowly climbing to 40% and 50%!]
Something must have happened!
