Kurt sneered upon hearing that, “Yeah, indeed. The high priest said it. But he is being controlled by you. The bridal veil and the black tea, and even the fortune-telling, were all your doings. They were all arranged by you, weren't they?”

Lucy was speechless upon hearing that.

“You didn't want to win the game too obviously, so you arranged for them to win the bridal veil test first.” He pointed at the lady of Cyanian and the lady of Mordunian. Both were still standing on the altar.

Beyond exasperated, the two ladies' eyes were reddened.

“Then what about the following round? Kurt, what was wrong with the tea and the fortune-telling session?” The chiefs of Cyanian and Mordunian were enraged as they started to question.

Kurt's lips curled into a sneer as he waved his hand. Soon, his subordinate brought upon something with a silver plate.

“There was nothing wrong with the tea. That was her scheme. She has known me for a long time, and she knew it was my favorite. However, her ace card was the fortune-telling.” He used a fork to pick up a tiny thing on the silver plate.

“Hiss...”

A glint of fear appeared on everyone's face.

Meanwhile, Lucy's face turned as white as a sheet.
