Synopsis

The chapter focuses on the princess, who is revealed to have lied about the existence of a powerful 'Phoenix Feather' that can revive fallen soldiers and a legendary 'Rune Blade' with immense magical power. She uses these fabricated items as bait to motivate the troops, promising them to those who perform well. This motivates the hesitant troops to join the frontlines, dividing themselves into groups. The princess acknowledges her deception to Sir Ungram but justifies her actions as necessary to change their atmosphere and drive them to action, all while acknowledging she'll suffer for her lies.
