"No! This is fake! You are trying to trick me!" Kale shouted as he banged the table with his hand.
Tristen let out a tired sigh and said, "Now...even if I wanted to trick you, what could I possibly gain by telling you that your wife is cheating on you? I don't gain anything by telling you the truth, but in fact, you now got to learn the truth that had been hidden from you by your own wife."
Damien, who was enjoying the show from the outside, never thought that Rhea would manage to accomplish such a dangerous task, especially when it involved the Gale Emperor himself.
He was impressed to see that Tristen's mother was more capable than he thought. He also never knew that miniature ethereal formations like these could be made, which seemed quite useful in situations like these.
In fact, he already had another plan in tow in case Rhea failed, and that was to let Kale witness for himself what his wife was up to.
Kale's expression became taut hearing Tristen's words, feeling that his words had some truth to them, but then he said, "No...you don't do anything without a reason to benefit you. I need to see for myself if my wife is truly cheating on me. Only then can I know that what you showed me was not fabricated."
Damien was not surprised to hear this from Kale since he knew how much this guy loved his wife.
So, Tristen said with a narrowed gaze, "Then how about I prove it for you? What if Farah cheats on you with me right here and now?"
"What?! You dare!" Kale's expression became dark as he again raised his finger.
Tristen shrugged, "What? You were the one who told me that you wanted to witness it yourself. Then how about you use this miniature ethereal formation to see what is going to happen between her and me in real-time. I have two metal discs like these. One will transmit what is happening in one place while the other disc will receive it and show you what is happening."

She was worried about Tristen and thought that he could use these miniature ethereal formations to his advantage.
Kale clenched his fists hearing this absurd and humiliating plan though just like Tristen said, he himself asked for this.
His expression became difficult as he walked to and fro in the tent in a restless manner, feeling frustration, anger, and all sorts of emotions stabbing his heart and head.
Inwardly he felt that what Tristen showed might have been the whole truth, but his heart didn't want to believe it. He still wanted to believe that his wife was loyal and loved him only, especially when she took care of him and helped him out whenever he was down.
Even the second chance of trying to get the title of the crown prince he got was because of her. So he simply couldn't bring himself to believe Tristen, thinking why his wife would go to such trouble for him if she truly didn't love or respect him.
After a lot of hesitation and suppressing the anguish in his heart, Kale said with gritted teeth, "Fine! Do it! Let me see if what you are saying is the truth."
Damien smiled while shaking his head in pity, seeing that the husband was willing to witness himself getting cucked just to learn the truth though it was the only way to convince him.
This was one of the situations no man would want to be in.
Tristen nodded and said as he placed the miniature ethereal formation on the table, "Alright, then. Remember, you asked for this."
Tristen activated the formation though it was not projecting anything since the second ethereal disc had not been activated yet.

Till then, sit tight and don't make any reckless moves. My friend, Godnim will be here just in case," Tristen instructed, to which Kale nodded with a heavy gaze.
Tristen came out of the tent, and Damien went inside with a slight smile.
Kale saw Godnim coming in and looked away with a huff, still feeling as if his heart might die from the bitterness and angst he was feeling.
Damien mentally ordered Tristen what to do by making him go over to Kale's tent, where Farah was talking with Yuria.
Tristen walked over to Kale's tent and came inside, much to Farah's surprise, who wondered what he was doing here.
"Can you two wait in your tent? I have something to discuss with my sister-in-law," Tristen said to Yuria and Valentina.
Yuria inwardly smiled as she nodded and walked out of the tent after exchanging some perfunctory words with Farah.
Tristen used Farah's momentary distraction to place the miniature ethereal formation in an inconspicuous place to not let Farah notice.
After making sure Yuria and her protector left, Farah immediately activated the ethereal defensive formation outside the tent and asked in a frantic tone, "Tristen! What the hell are you doing here? This is not the place to fool around!"
Tristen smiled and said casually, "Don't worry about that idiot husband of yours. I have made sure he would be sleeping in some tent for a while, and everyone else thinks that I am here to discuss strategies with you on Kale's instructions. So, how about we get down to discussing some strategies in bed?"
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})Hearing his words, Farah felt relieved, and her expression immediately turned into a flirty one as she sashayed towards Tristen with a coquettish smile, "You bad boy can't have enough of this sister-in-law, huh?"
"Of course, when the sister-in-law is as sexy as you," Tristen smiled as he loosened his robes while in the other tent where Kale was standing, his clenched fists were trembling to see the live projection of his wife flirting with his brother, a side to her which he never dared to believe.
