so here's a spoiler I've found on novelupdates forum about why khalid killed estelle . . .
. . . . First, the kingdom that they were working to protect was already rotten to its core but MC was completely oblivious to it because Khalid fell in love with her "innocent" and "naiveness" so he prevented her from learning about the truth. But eventually, she found out after being captured by the green haired ML. She found out that the orders that she carried hurt a lot of people and wanted to repent so she decided to resign from her position and take the blame for her actions. Khalid knows that the kingdom is going to fall so he acts as a double agent for the current country that he works for. Since the kingdom was going to fall, the things she did would come to light and she would be forever branded as an evil person and would basically have to live in shame for the rest of her life (if they let her live). So he decided to kill her to try to maintain her "pure" and "righteous" reputation and have her die as a hero rather than a villain.
Thank you holy human So he is obsessed with pureness and he not only killed her based on his own selfish conviction, he didn't even ask for her opinion on the matter that is HER LIFE? Red flags Khalid you are done for me get ouuuut
