“Thats right… that Caesar is really lucky, Princess ShenDai Ying is so beautiful.”

“Higgins, now you like ShenDai Ying Do you like every girl you see”

“Hehe, is there any man that wouldnt like a sexy and alluring woman like her”

“Right… apparently a lot of people have a crush on her, if it wasnt for her identity, they would already be chasing after her.”

“Sigh, its a shame that Caesar got such a bargain…”

The king only got halfway through before the two kids already started talking among themselves.

The man everyone was focused on was undoubtedly Caesars father, the king of Lombard Kingdom, William Alex.

Lin Xiao at least knew that, but the audiences reaction made him confused.

The king was preparing to announce something important, so even if their reactions are not of surprise, they should at least silently listen, so why are they all murmuring while smiling like it was some joyous occasion

Lin Xiao realized that he only came to the banquet but didnt know what the topic was.

Unlike him, everyone else already heard about it and knew so they were preparing to congratulate the king.

The only person that was confused was Lin Xiao.

When ShenDai Yings hand was held by the king, there was a flash of gloom in her eyes as she glanced towards the corner and mouthed something before raising her head and regained her smile.

Sorry, I just dont want to run anymore.

“Im sure you all already know…” King William revealed a loving smile as his stern heroic expression instantly melted, at the moment he wasnt a dignified monarch, but a father that was happy for his son.

He squeezed Caesars hand wanting to transmit his joy.

“My son, Caesar.”

He also held ShenDai Yings hand, but his movements werent as natural, but with more prudence.

“Great Qin Empires princess, ShenDai households beloved daughter, ShenDai Ying.”

He pulled their hands and laughed.

“Theyve gotten to know each other over the past six months.

He has a lot of shortcomings, although hes kind but a bit obstinate… haha, just like me when I was younger.”

“As for ShenDai Ying… I think everyone can see, beautiful and intelligent.

Its really by the grace of the goddess that such an outstanding child will be with my son.”

King William looked around and saw Caesar with a scowl, so he glared at him and squeezed his hand tightly until Caesar had to clench his hand to endure it.

When he turned and saw ShenDai Yings graceful smile, King William burst with joy again as his mood improved.

“Today is their engagement banquet.

Since its been so long, its time to put a date to it.

According to the agreement with the empress, their wedding will be held half a year from now!”

Along with the kings final announcement, the crowd cheered.

Even the frivolous Higgins also respectfully raised his glass along with everyone else blessing the king.

The entire banquet hall was filled with a joyous atmosphere, with people reveling in this with the king.

The only one who looked out of place was a youth sitting in the corner with a pale face.

Crunch…

Elena suddenly heard a sound that made her scalp itch, when she looked down, she realized that Lin Xiao bent the gold plated spoon that he was gripping.

Who knows where he got the strength from, he was clearly just a frail magician.

The one that gave him the strength was probably that princess that was everyones focal point.

Elena already said that she was someone who was good at disguising herself, like Lin Xiao.

Yes, she was right.

ShenDai Ying was currently beaming holding her glass and she was no doubt the star of the banquet.

However, her occasional dark glances to the corner betrayed her heart.

“Does your heart ache”

Elena took the bent spoon from him and gently placed it on the table while calmly asking.

“…”

There was no response.

Of course, even if he didnt respond, Elena already knew the answer.

Rather than asking whether it hurt, it was more appropriate to ask whether his wounded heart could still continue beating.

Lin Xiao clutched his chest, the intense pressure made him feel like he was suffocating.

“I-I dont understand… why”

“Why else” Elena looked at the princess expressionlessly and replied without mercy, “Shes tired of you and doesnt want to be involved with you anymore, so she tricked you here and used the kings words to tell you that its impossible between you two, that a toad like you should give up.”

“Give up No, I dont believe it!”

Lin Xiao could only feel his heart contract and the intense pain almost made him faint.

“Heh, youre right not to believe it, because I was just kidding.” Elena coldly replied, while appreciating Lin Xiaos changing expression with great interest.

“W-what did you say! You dare fool me… cough.”

Lin Xiao almost choked on his saliva and wanted to scold her but felt heart palpitations so he clutched his chest again and leaned over the table breathing quickly.

“Lin Xiao, arent you very smart So even if I dont say it, you should know the answer already, right”

“I-I dont know… I dont know anything… Elena, tell me if you know!”

Even if he knew some things, perhaps it would feel better coming from someone else.

“Oh, okay then let me tell you.”

Elena cleared her throat, ignored Lin Xiaos pain and spoke the cold harsh truth.

“Shes probably tired.”

“Tired”

“En, even if she wants to forget, and pretend that it doesnt exist, but her engagement is still established.

Shes the princess of the Great Qin Empire, Caesars fiancée.

Even if shes willing to come to your house to personally cook for you, to be taken advantage of by a pervert like you, to give her body to you, she still cant change her fate.

So…”

“So”

“So, shes tired.” Elena paused and originally wanted to continue using an indifferent tone to provoke him, but she subconsciously added some warmth and consolation, “She didnt want to escape anymore, she didnt want to lie to herself or you, so she invited you here to personally witness her fate, where she belongs… and unfortunately, thats not with you.”

“Elena, I…”

Staring into Elenas clear red eyes, he couldnt help but lose concentration and dryly laugh.

When did she get so smart, in the end, was he the only fool

“Am I a coward”

Lin Xiao suddenly asked an unrelated question.

Elena understood this was actually the most relevant question.

“Yes.” She gave a definite answer, then quickly followed, “And no.”

“Hm”

“Lin Xiao, let me ask you, do you dare to snatch her away”

“That, uh…”

“Dont rush to answer, listen to my question carefully.

I didnt ask you whether you can, Im asking whether you dare to.”

“I dont understand…”

Lin Xiao fell silent and stared at Elena waiting for her to follow up.

“Okay then, let me change the question.”

Elena cleared her throat and spoke with her clear voice.

“Lin Xiao, if I said that I was willing to command the demon army to attack Lombard Kingdom, are you willing”

“What… did you say”

Lin Xiao opened his mouth and almost cried out! Yet Elena still had an indifferent expression.

“Lin Xiao, with your gift, as long as your willing, if you spend half a year training, you can surely become an advanced eighth-level magician and maybe even break through the ninth-level… at that time, Ill return to the Forest of the End and order the strongest demonic beasts to accompany you to attack Winterless City! Wipe out the Alex household, kill Caesar and the king and snatch ShenDai Ying away and make her your wife!”

“In that case… would you be willing”
