Chapter 93: Chapter 76 Valkyrie’s Killing Intent (4500 Requests for Recommendations for Additional Releases)_2
Out of respect for Wozworth, Qin Chu merely slapped Lance away with his palm and then handed him over for Wozworth to discipline.
It was Rose Vesper who told Qin Chu about the Prince falling into the manure pit.
If Nicholas hadn’t mentioned it, he would have almost forgotten such a person existed.
He remembered that on the day of his execution, standing in the audience, he was the one who laughed the most cheerfully.
Qin Chu touched the corner of his mouth, "If I heard correctly, this esteemed Prince who fell into the manure pit... cough, as the heir to the throne, is supposed to marry a daughter from the Meisfield family, right?"
This seemed to be a rule of the Oville Empire.
Each generation’s throne heir was prearranged to have a Princess, which was normal since, for an Emperor, managing the country was only second priority to producing heirs to continue the Royal Family’s bloodline.
The customs of the Oville Empire were liberal; besides lawful wives, nobles would also have many mistresses, and this was even more so for the Royal Family. Each Emperor’s number of Princesses was astonishingly high, Wozworth himself had three hundred and sixty-six Princesses... it is said that Wozworth’s great-grandfather broke the records of the Oville Empire, owning a thousand and one Princesses.
That is not the main point, the main point is, the first Princess an Emperor marries must be a daughter from the Meisfield family, and furthermore, the first Prince must also be born from a daughter of the Meisfield family, he is what you call the legitimate eldest son, the primary successor to the throne.
Nicholas looked at Qin Chu somewhat surprised, not expecting Mr. Brave to be so knowledgeable about the Oville Empire.
He blinked his brown eyes, and in a gossipy tone, said, "That’s correct, but our Prince here has no interest whatsoever in the females of the Meisfield family... um... his only interest is Holy Daughter Rose Vesper... Actually, he is of marriageable age, but because of Rose Vesper, he has always postponed and even refused to proceed with the wedding."
Then Nicholas muttered under his breath, "They say Prince Lance will marry none but the Holy Daughter, and for this, he has even had serious conflicts with the Emperor, and even once expressed his intention to withdraw from the competition for the throne."
"Moreover, the Prince’s personality is extremely extreme."
Nicholas was subtly reminding Qin Chu and Rose Vesper to keep their distance a bit, as, after all, the Prince held a noble status and was extremely powerful, being paranoid and extreme. Although Qin Chu was valued as a Hero, destined for a limitless future, the current Mr. Brave was still very weak. If something like what happened with Catherine occurred between him and Rose Vesper, it would definitely drive the Prince mad.
If that man went mad, even assassinating the Hero was possible; he was capable of it.
Qin Chu only pondered for a moment before understanding why Nicholas was warning him. It was not because he was concerned for the safety of the Hero, nor for the Sky Dome Continent, but for himself.
As a guard of the Hero, if the Prince really made a move against the Hero, what should he do? Confront the Prince? He would certainly be killed.
Side with the Prince?
As a guard, failing to protect the Hero would definitely lead to Wozworth’s retribution; moreover, the Prince would never allow such an informed person to live in this world.
Meaning, if a real conflict occurred, his survival was almost certainly grim.
He couldn’t persuade the Prince, nor could he discuss these matters with Wozworth. He could only subtly warn Qin Chu, who appeared to be quite reasonable. Besides, he had even given Nicholas three thousand mana before... of course, Nicholas didn’t care about money, mainly because the existence of the Hero was linked to the fate of the entire Sky Dome Continent; how could he be easily eliminated by the Prince.
Qin Chu assumed a thoughtful pose; he recalled that during the first week, he had suffered numerous assassination attempts, nearly half of which came from humans... the Empire’s explanation was that other kingdoms did not want to see the Empire’s power continue to grow and wanted the Hero eliminated.
Looking at it now, the assassins were very likely arranged by the Prince.
No wonder this guy harbored such hostility toward him, even laughing the loudest during his execution.
Should he take the opportunity to deal with that kid? But that kid actually liking Rose Vesper is really poor taste; that woman is purely dark inside once cut open.
Qin Chu calculated silently in his mind, not stopping his steps. Under Nicholas’s escort, he left the palace. Although he disliked the atmosphere of the Noble District, he had to admit there were many things in the Noble District that the Civilian District could not compare with, such as those delicately made pastries, delicious breakfasts...
While on his way to the breakfast shop, a hurried figure suddenly appeared ahead.
A slender figure, wrapped in a pure white Saintess costume that hugged her slim body. Although it did not accentuate her curves, it made her appear even more innocent. Her small cheeks were rosy and tender, so tempting that one could hardly resist the urge to bite.
This woman, who else could it be but Rose Vesper?
However, the current Rose Vesper seemed somewhat out of sorts, her face unusually anxious and her golden eyes filled with restlessness, not even maintaining the elegant demeanor of a Saintess, as her shapely, round legs moved quickly, producing a patting sound.
Seeing the direction Rose Vesper was heading, it was clearly toward the palace.
