"I met the swordsmanship instructor, Leda Leah, and she was a little different from what I imagined."
"She even invited me to dinner. You said she was a dangerous person, and I felt the same way, but to be honest, I don't know where her hostility came from."
Lin Yu was silent for a moment.
"Teacher, you are so smart, you must be able to guess something."
Princess Ariel said.
"You can't tell me that Reda Leah is Darius's man."
Lin Yu understood Ariel's look, but he instinctively found this answer hard to believe.
Leta Leah is an expert swordsman. Although Lin Yu has never seen her moves in person, she is able to train Zelti Kluel.
Moreover, since he is the sword-fighting instructor of the entire palace, he must be very strong.
During the conversation with her, Lin Yu could also feel that she had an extremely strong sense of self-esteem and pride.
How could such a proud man have anything to do with someone like Darius?
Lin Yu didn't need to investigate what kind of person Darius was. Just from the opinions of other people, he could tell that Darius was not a good person.
"Although it sounds unbelievable, it is actually true. Leda Lia is Darius's person. It is difficult for me to explain the relationship between them."
"But every time Darius needed her to do something, she never refused, no matter how dirty the task was."
Ariel whispered.
"If that's the case... then we need to find out more clearly."
Lin Yu muttered to himself.
"There will be another meeting tomorrow. Unlike the previous ones, only the real power core can participate this time."
"My brother is the leader. The struggle between factions also requires proof of strength."
Ariel's expression suddenly turned serious.
"It seems that it is not a simple scene."
Lin Yu said softly.
"In tomorrow's scene, my brother will probably be surrounded by powerful officials, with almost no room for people to sit, while there will only be a few figures on my side."
"He hopes to use this method to show his strength and skills, and also hopes to let more people see the weakness of my power."
Ariel sighed.
"So you're going to refuse?"
Lin Yu asked.
"I have no reason or power to refuse. Since I am a woman, I need to take on a lot if I want to be in that position."
"Besides, this is a good opportunity because you are here, teacher. This kind of thing won't happen just because I'm afraid."
"Only if they change their opinion of me, my chances will be better."
Ariel clenched her fists, as if she had made some important decision.
Lin Yu did see determination and courage in Ariel, and thought that she would definitely be a good emperor in the future.
She possesses the qualities of a superior.
If Lin Yu had always thought that she was a trouble, now he began to appreciate her.
If it were anyone else, they would probably keep running away. Not everyone has this awareness.
"In tomorrow's scene, I am not the protagonist. The real protagonist should be you."
Ariel whispered.
Lin Yu nodded to indicate that he understood.
Ariel had already explained this matter to Lin Yu, so Lin Yu made preparations in advance.
Lin Yu woke up at dawn the next day. With the help of Fitz, he changed into the uniform that Ariel had prepared in advance.
You can't eat too much for breakfast, and you even need to spray some perfume.
After adjusting to the best condition, Ariel began to lead the group to the destination.
In order to make the scene more spectacular, Liniana and Pulsena also came along.
Although the two of them came to the palace together, Lin Yu did not let them move freely most of the time.
Because their destructive power is so strong, if one is not careful, it may cause trouble.
This is no ordinary matter. Once any taboo is triggered, they might even lose their lives.
By then, even if Linyana and Pulsena cried and begged Lin Yu, there would be no way they could help.
There are many palace buildings in the royal palace, and this time the location is probably in the bedroom of Princess Ariel's brother.
Her brother is a young man who looks somewhat similar to her, with the same good looks and figure, but compared to Ariel.
Lin Yu's evaluation of him was much worse.
He is positioned close to Darius, and even at the beginning, he is questioning Darius. He does not seem to be a man of his own opinion, but just takes the kingship for granted.
Even if such a person really ascends the throne one day, he probably won't be able to do anything earth-shattering, and he may not even be able to keep his throne.
Because of his closeness to Darius, Darius also held considerable power.
Ariel's brother sat in the front, and to his left were the powerful officials who were under his command. The total number of these people was nearly thirty.
These powerful officials are in charge of all aspects of the country's resources, and they can even control the fate of the country in a very short period of time.
There were only a few people around Ariel.
She was alone, but her brother insisted on humiliating her in this way.
The personnel from both sides had not arrived yet. Lin Yu noticed something interesting in the crowd and walked over to Princess Ariel.
"I have a feeling that among your brother's people, a few are secretly watching you. Their eyes seem to be concerned about you, but if they care about you, why don't they stand by your side?"
Lin Yu asked softly.
"Because my brother and I had a fight a long time ago. At that time, I lost everything I had, and those who originally stood by me were forced to change their stance."
"They used to be my people, but I am a loser. Now I am still alive but barely surviving. I guess as their brother, they never thought that I would come back one day."
Ariel said softly.
"I guess what I'm doing now is to tell you not to covet the throne."
Lin Yu looked at Ariel's brother, who was a handsome man but had no expression at all. His face was lifeless, as if he had never been a person who could smile.
"Coming back is your worst decision. I know exactly what you want to do, but you'd better consider your position."
"You are a loser, and here today, you can't find anyone who can help you."
Ariel's brother came up to her and whispered beside her.
"I think I've found someone who can help me."
Ariel looked towards Lin Yu.
Ariel's brother then turned his attention to Lin Yu.
"He looks about your age. What can a child do? The struggle for royal power is not a child's play. If you want to take chances, then I think you have made a mistake."
Ariel's brother's tone was particularly serious.
"Princess, I'm a little tired. If you have anything else to say, just talk to me."
Lin Yu stretched out his hand and blocked in front of him.
The two men's eyes met, but they probably meant the same thing.
"Since you are here, you are a guest. It's just a simple gathering."
Darius noticed the change in atmosphere and came up, speaking politely.
"I heard that Mr. Lin Yu holds a very high position in the Magic Academy. Many people say that you are an unprecedented genius. I think you will soon become a top expert in the future."
Darius continued.
What he said was quite clever, because he was speaking to both the prince and Lin Yu at the same time.
As far as Yu Linyu was concerned, Darius had obviously investigated his background, so he knew it so clearly.
Now, with Darius' reminder, the prince realized that Lin Yu's identity was not as simple as it seemed.
Sure enough, after hearing Darius' voice, Ariel's brother turned around, sat back in that seat, and looked at everyone present with a scrutinizing gaze.
The situation was then controlled by Darius.
He continued to speak those simple polite words in the following time.
Darius introduced the information he had found about Lin Yu's identity to the people around him.
"This is the rising star of the future Magic Academy. His magical abilities are unfathomable. He has become a teacher at the academy at such a young age."
"There are always geniuses in the world. In our kingdom, there are also a group of similar people. I wonder what the result will be if the two sides are compared."
Darius's next meaning was very clear. He obviously hoped that Lin Yu could show off his muscles.
Darius put a very high hat on Lin Yu, so high that everyone present would think that Lin Yu was the strongest person standing behind Ariel.
Darius waved his hand, and the first person to come forward was a knight.
He had a sword at his waist and was fully armed. His armor was much thicker than expected.
He stretched out his hand towards Lin Yu, which was probably some kind of provocation.
Darius has already created the atmosphere. If Lin Yu avoids the battlefield, his psychological value will probably be greatly reduced throughout the process.
Darius' intention will not change because of Lin Yu's avoidance of battle, when Lin Yu chooses to stand behind Ariel and accompany her back even after rejecting Darius' invitation.
There can be no change in the relationship between them.
The end will come only after the death of one party. The temptation of the succession of royal power is too great.
Lin Yu turned around and looked around. Linyana and Pulsena were worried about Lin Yu's safety. They had never experienced such a thing before.
Especially in a foreign country, they would not have a better protection behind them, and Ariel, the only one who could be considered to be able to help, essentially had no chance at all.
She could only give the choice to Lin Yu himself. Ariel nodded, which meant that if Lin Yu wanted to refuse, she could accept it.
Anyway, Ariel's current situation has already reached the bottom. No matter what she does, it probably won't get worse than it is now.
"If this is your choice, then prove it to me."
Ariel's brother sat in the main seat and spoke. He also wanted to know what kind of person his sister relied on.
Lin Yu walked towards the knight in front of him, and the two sides performed simple etiquette.
The knights made a gesture but did not take any further action. These knights in the palace were not foreign aid.
It is very likely that he was chosen to come to the palace at a very young age, then trained by Leta Lia, and finally accumulated military merits to get to where he is today step by step.
Therefore, these knights are most likely from the Water God faction.
There are three mainstream swordsmanship schools, and the Water God School is one of them. The main attack rhythm is passively receiving attacks and counterattacking.
The swordsmen of Shui Shenliu have quick counterattacks, and they often do not need to take the initiative or even seize the offensive rhythm.
Lin Yu didn't know much about swordsmanship when he was in the academy, but he had seen more swordsmen when he was an adventurer.
The accumulated experience from battles can also provide Lin Yu with a considerable amount of experience.
Magic power is accumulating in his hands, and he will definitely take the initiative in this battle.
So it doesn’t matter, Lin Yu just needs to make the arrangements.
Lin Yu does not need to chant when using magic, so he only needs to make as many arrangements as possible in advance.
After experimenting with magic for such a long time, he had already dabbled in enough magic.
About ten minutes later, everyone present couldn't help themselves. Judging from the naked eye, the two people did nothing but stood at a distance.
Lin Yu never revealed any aura from beginning to end. He had no intention, killing intent or even the will to fight.
The knight of Shuishenliu had never seen such an opponent before, and at one point he even doubted whether he should continue to lie in wait.
But the knight also heard Darius's previous evaluation of Lin Yu.
He instinctively thought that the man standing in front of him must be some mysterious master, so he concentrated his attention and showed an unyielding will.
But he would never have expected this situation, and no one would have expected this result.
"Hey, hey, hey, this scene is not pretty at all. If the fight between you is like this, it will be too boring."
Darius finally couldn't help but speak, and there seemed to be some kind of command in his voice, ordering the knights to open the situation.
For Darius, he had already made arrangements and plans, so the outcome of this battle was not important at all.
The knight was about to take a step forward, but Lin Yu suddenly moved, but not with his feet but with his lips, chanting magic.
The intention of attack was finally revealed. The knight's body sank. He didn't need to use his eyes to see. The swordsman with deep knowledge could make judgments based on the opponent's breath.
Lin Yu's aura was not concealed at all. (End of this chapter)
