Chapter 599: Chapter 432 All Heroes Wanted (1)_2

"Or do you wish your old man would kick the bucket and return to the Goddess’s embrace so that you can take over and become the kingdom’s Queen?"

"Ptui, what Queen, this Princess has not the slightest interest," Miluo said irritably.

The way this royal family interacted was rather strange. If this were in the Oville Empire, they might have already been executed for treason by Wozworth.

"So, what’s it about?" the old King yawned, his eyes bleary, looking like he might just fall asleep standing up at any moment.

Miluo got straight to the point, "Hero Qin Chu has arrived."

Swoosh...

The previously bleary-eyed old King seemed suddenly energized, his murky old eyes brightening abruptly, "The Second Generation Brave Warrior? Qin Chu?"

"That’s right."

"Damn, why didn’t you say so earlier?"

"You’re the one rambling over there, and you’re blaming me?" Miluo huffed.

Though she retorted, Miluo still quickly recounted everything that had happened between her and Qin Chu—from their encounter to their parting.

The old King no longer cared for appearances, forget even that his attire was disheveled, and he prepared to rush out to greet the Hero.

After all, that was a Hero, and the Pope of the Holy Court at that.

Not an existence a minor kingdom’s King could afford to slight.

But after dashing out quickly for a few steps, the old King suddenly stopped, his brows furrowed tightly, "Miluo, what do you think is the real purpose of this Hero’s visit to Exeter?"

Miluo was slightly taken aback, "Isn’t it because his woman, Silf, is entangled with Alfred within the Kingdom? He’s just here to deal with that matter, right?"

"No, no, no..."

The old King shook his head, "A great Hero, traveling thousands of miles just to settle such a trivial matter?"

"Is he idle?"

"That’s a Hero."

A Hero, and the Pope of the Holy Court—what an exalted status he held. Such trivial matters surely wouldn’t require his personal attendance.

The old King was convinced that Qin Chu’s actions must conceal an unspoken secret. As for the so-called entanglement with a woman, it was just a public pretext.

"Could it be for..." The old King suddenly seemed to have realized something, his pupils flickering with a strange light.

"For what?" Miluo also became curious.

"The Hidden Society!"

A sly smile, like that of an old fox, crept over the old King’s mouth, "If that’s the case, then it’s perfect. Perhaps we could use the Hero’s hand to eliminate it!"

His gnarled fingers grazed his bare chin, and the old King’s smile grew more sinister, his eyes rapidly darting around.

Miluo knew that when her old man was up to mischief, he often looked just like that. After a while, the old King suddenly looked up at Miluo, "Miluo, whom do you think among your three sisters would be the most suitable?"

Miluo was slightly startled but immediately understood.

The old man was planning to betroth one of his three daughters to the Hero.

In this way, Qin Chu, who was also the Pope of the Holy Court, would become Exeter Kingdom’s son-in-law.

It would provide a marital link between the Kingdom, the Hero, and the Holy Court.

Although such a connection was not particularly strong, it at least guaranteed peace for Exeter Kingdom for several decades to come.

But three sisters, one a fox girl, one a cat girl, and one a mermaid...

God knows what kind of tastes Qin Chu has.

She didn’t know much about the Second Generation Qin Chu, almost everything she knew came from merchants who traveled to Exeter for business, and what she heard from refugees.

Thinking carefully, the most prominent trait of the Second Generation Brave Warrior was... Huh? Consumed by lust for color?

Though a decent fellow, he had an almost greedy desire for women, collecting beauties seemed to be his biggest hobby.

With this thought in mind, Miluo suddenly felt a tinge of sadness. Despite being such a lust-consumed individual, he was so gentlemanly towards her... Indeed, he didn’t see her as a woman at all.

After all, who would be fond of a tall, furry, big gorilla?

Seeing her father still staring at her, Miluo answered: "Um, given Qin Chu’s character..."

"He would probably... want them all?"

The old king’s expression suddenly stiffened.

...

Meanwhile, in the inn, the battle had subsided.

Silf and Asina were attending to Qin Chu, one in front and one behind... Don’t get it wrong, Asina was massaging Qin Chu’s back from behind, while Silf was kneading his legs, that’s all.

However, the soft touch of the girl’s fingers and the just-right amount of pressure still made Qin Chu quite comfortable.

The tensed muscles were also getting some relief at this time.

Behind him, Asina continued to report the intelligence she had gathered recently.

One of Asina’s main sources of information was the rats she controlled, which spread throughout every corner of the city, turning sounds they heard into special signals transmitted to Asina’s consciousness.

To be honest, the sensation wasn’t pleasant.

It was like suddenly being overloaded with a massive flow of information, much like a computer running at overcapacity, causing Asina to feel as if her brain might explode from the intense pain.

The information received in a split second required Asina a long time to process.

However, despite the discomfort, this method often yielded some messages that were difficult to obtain through normal channels.

"Inside the Kingdom, there seems to be a mysterious organization called the Hidden Society." Asina said quietly: "It is very likely an evil organization similar to the Elegant School, Blissful Witch Association, and Plague Research Institute."

This Hidden Society didn’t seem to be very secretive at all.

Her expression gradually became more serious, Asina suspected that this mysterious group might have something to do with those beings in the Void.

They could be the believers of Evil Gods.

Qin Chu’s expression gradually grew serious as well. He had never been to Exeter Kingdom before, and regarding the Hidden Society, he had no understanding from the first week at all.

But oddly, Qin Chu felt that this name seemed somewhat familiar; suddenly, it was as if he remembered something, and he quickly opened his storage ring, rapidly searching through Augustus’s notes stored within.

Not much time passed before a notebook appeared in Qin Chu’s palm.

This notebook recorded Augustus’s research on witches; the madman had even once thought of seizing the witches’ authority.

After turning a few pages, Qin Chu finally found it.

Blissful Witch, a member of the Hidden Society!

Qin Chu’s eyes flickered slightly; he had a feeling that this Blissful Witch was very important to him.

Even out of nowhere, there was an elusive desire in his chest, and his two hearts were beating faster and more intensely.
