Chapter 187: 186 Utilization? Proposal?

———— “Shane.”

This name, in recent days, indeed rose like a storm, rapidly gaining fame, often mentioned in conversations. Although it wasn’t widespread among commoners, it had permeated throughout the circles of nobles and the Knight Order.

The reason it spread so quickly in just a few days was all because this man came into contact with the Kingdom’s royal treasures.

Make no mistake, this is due to Princess Luosilusti’s influence.

With beauty that even the Goddesses themselves would envy, and being the only one in the Kingdom’s millennium history to be acknowledged by the Holy Sword and receive the Blessing of the Goddess of Destiny, this Princess’s popularity in the Kingdom can only be described as a form of power; the adoration, worship, and frenzy the public held for her was exceedingly intense.

Frankly speaking, if the Princess so wished, she could call upon the support of all the Kingdom’s people at any time and usurp the current King from his throne to become the fourth Queen in the history of the Mitra Kingdom.

And frighteningly, such popularity was not just effective among commoners but among nobles and the Knight Order as well.

The number of nobles who fell for the Princess’s beauty was not few—quite the majority, in fact.

The Knights, captivated by the Princess’s power, were countless as well.

Coupled with her impeccable demeanor and various legendary deeds, the Princess was already seen as a goddess in the eyes of all, a precious gem beyond reach.

The royal treasures of the Kingdom, this title was absolutely not just an idle mention.

Yet she suddenly had an unusual close contact with a man, and it wasn’t widely known among commoners—solely as a result of forcefully controlling the media, hiding it from the nobles and Knight Order was utterly impossible.

Of course, this man was no ordinary adventurer, which was also one of the important reasons.

A mere investigation by people immediately revealed this man’s numerous deeds.

“He subdued the mastermind behind the Old Demon Clan Faction all by himself.”

“On the way to the Royal Capital, he annihilated a large force of the Old Demon Clan Faction.”

“He sparred with Princess Luosilusti at the Royal Palace Arena, nearly completely destroying it.”

These deeds were all telling others that this young adventurer was truly extraordinary.

It was said that his level wasn’t high, yet he possessed a Unique Skill that allowed him to adjust his level and skills within a certain range; his strength was not merely as simple as it appeared on the surface.

Recently, when he visited Princess Luosilusti at the Royal Palace, all the nobles who intended to trouble him couldn’t even get close to him and were all knocked to the ground.

There was also a rumor that this man had shown the Royal Token, proving that he had the trust of one of the Royal Family’s members and was particularly close to that person.

This token could only belong to Princess Luosilusti.

All these deeds had recently made the name “Shane” very notorious among the nobles and Knights, arousing strong hostility against him from many.

If not for his respectable strength and possession of the Royal Token, which made him not someone to provoke lightly, would those looking for trouble have already broken down his door by now?

Coincidentally, this man was currently staying at the Lazahad family’s house, under the protection of the Lazahad family, incapacitating even the use of minor tricks. In just a few days, countless young lords from noble families were already frustrated to the point of spitting blood because they couldn’t touch him.

Unfortunately, Lymco was among them.

Of course, Lymco hadn’t acted against Shane, nor was he frustrated to the point of vomiting blood, but to say he had no thoughts about Shane was impossible.

This wasn’t just because the task given to him by his family might be obstructed or even failed by this man, but also because Lymco had long harbored feelings for the Princess.

This content is taken from fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm.

At the beginning, Lymco had no particular thoughts about the Princess.

Influenced by his cold-blooded father and the ruthless family style, he was somewhat merciless and indifferent. Initially, he had come to the Royal Capital to fulfill his family’s mission and achieve his family’s unspoken goals, without any special thoughts about the Princess.

However, when he arrived at the Royal Capital and saw the Princess make her appearance in front of the palace at noon amidst the crowd, Lymco was utterly captivated at that moment.

Her majestic posture, perfect manners, stunningly beautiful face, and the strong Magic Power that stirred the soul overwhelmed the indifferent weapon of the family in an instant.

Since then, Lymco outwardly showed no signs, but inwardly, his passion for the Princess had already flared, vowing to win her over.

Only she was worthy of having his true heart, deserving all he could give.

Lymco was very patient and did not reveal his feelings, instead making an effort to establish himself in the Guard Knight Order.

He knew that pursuing Princess Luoqilusti in a conventional way was impossible; the noble young masters who were turned away from the Princess’s sleeping quarters every day were living examples.

Therefore, Lymco persevered, training and developing himself, striving to make a name in the Guard Knight Order.

That was because the Guard Knight Order was a force directly under the Royal Family, and each knight in it was duty-bound to guard the royals.

Usually, members of the Royal Family would choose one or two Guard Knights as their personal guards to ensure their safety.

The current King Anxifelger’s knight was the Kingdom’s strongest Legendary Knight, Aridia Elbein.

The King’s eldest daughter, the First Princess Liyadella, also had a knight from the Guard Knight Order by her side, hailing from a knight family in the Royal Capital second only to the Elbein family.

Following this rule, Princess Luoqilusti should also have a Guard Knight by her side.

However, the Princess had not yet chosen anyone as her knight, and for the sake of convenience in official duties, she established her own Female Knight Order—the Holy Sword Knights.

This knight order acted as the Princess’s Personal Guard, helping her complete all her official duties, but unlike the Guard Knights who could stay in the same room and offer close protection, their relationship with the Princess was undoubtedly distant.

Lymco’s goal was to become the knight of the Princess, then only could he ‘through proximity, garner favor.’

To this end, Lymco quietly worked hard for two years.

Just these past few days, Shane had suddenly emerged, creating obstacles in Lymco’s steady and firm plans.

That was why Barry had come.

“Looking at the current situation, it’s no longer time for you to slowly unfold your plan,” Barry spoke coldly. “In a few days, you will accompany me to the palace to have an audience with His Majesty.”

“An audience…?” Lymco looked at his father, speaking solemnly, “What does father intend to do?”

“It’s simple,” Barry said lightly. “Directly ask for the Princess’s hand in marriage. Of course, such a direct proposal might likely be rejected, but I’ll make some arrangements using that adventurer named Shane.”

“Using him?” Lymco was puzzled.

“Don’t think too much,” Barry said, disregarding Lymco’s confusion, turning away, “When the time comes, you just need to cooperate with me.”

“Yes,” Lymco lowered his eyes, responding softly.

In his mind, the face of the beautiful Princess flashed again, making Lymco’s hands clench into fists.

Inside, a hot stream flowed like magma within Lymco’s body.
