After being troubled for a few days, it’s time to have a sudden epiphany, right?

But when she heard Pope Camilla say this, she became confused and had some doubts.

"Please let me go downstairs and take a look."

Author's Note: There's a line in the first few chapters, "Eve, think of her as the head maid..." This should be Morning Star.

I got confused while coding and wrote the subject wrong.

Because of the sf chapter, only those who have been arrested can modify it in the background.

The author cannot modify the chapters that do not involve arrests, so I will explain this here.

Chapter 280: The Scheming Princess

Commander Deloya walked down from the second floor, and the royal maids passing by bowed slightly to her in greeting.

Commander Deloyah wanted to go and see Princess Melissa, but it was because of the Paradise City incident. She was the one who made things difficult for the princess. Even though Deloyah and the princess had no direct conflict, this past was still a small grudge, and it would be a bit awkward to meet her in private.

Therefore, it was not convenient for her to go directly to Princess Melissa.

Thinking of this, she asked the head maid who happened to be walking in front of her:

"Is Princess Melissa doing any experiments with magic circles, or...something else?"

Deloya's expression was a little unclear, like someone with poor speech skills.

But there was no way. She instinctively felt that the sudden enlightenment in her mind was abnormal and must be caused by some external reasons in the mansion, but she could not find the source accurately.

The elegant head maid had beautiful golden hair, which was neatly tied into a bun. She replied gently:

"Princess Melissa is not working on the magic circle. She is meeting guests. Lord Chu Yan is in her room."

"The young lord is here? Is it convenient for me to disturb him?"

It would actually be fine for Commander Deloya to go straight over, but considering the relationship between Princess Melissa and Chu Yan, it would not be good if he encountered any sports scene when entering the room.

Princess Melissa and Pope Camilla didn't get along well. If Deloya rashly disturbed their mood, Pope Camilla would definitely be held responsible.

Maybe in two days, the two of them will start looking for excuses to slap each other again...

The head maid said politely:

"Then I'll go and ask first."

A few minutes later, the head maid confirmed the princess's opinion and led Commander Deloya into the room.

In the room, Chu Yan and the princess, who was dressed in black, sat together at a small table by the window. They seemed to be chatting, but the atmosphere was exceptionally quiet.

Princess Melissa's black dress caught Deloya's attention because she tended to wear elegant white court dresses and rarely wore clothes of other colors.

The princess is a woman who pays great attention to details, and many of her unintentional actions are decisions made after careful consideration.

For example now,

Princess Melissa changed her previous position of sitting face to face with Chu Yan, and now sat side by side close to him, with her high heels in black patterned silk gently touching Chu Yan's trouser legs. She was clearly the hostess of this mansion, but she didn't sit in a completely relaxed position during the chat, but leaned forward slightly, leaning towards Chu Yan intentionally or unintentionally.

Sitting like this for a long time might be quite tiring, but it can convey a sense of intimacy to the other person, and it is a very measured intimacy.

They won't disturb each other casually, but as long as the other person looks at them, they will immediately respond with intimacy.

With so many details added up, even if Chu Yan himself is not aware of her kindness, his senses will slowly accept and trust her.

Because Dragonborn have an unconscious and keen sense of crisis, their bodies can capture danger signals from some imperceptible details in the environment, but at the same time, those intimate signals will also be absorbed, silently affecting their judgment and evaluation of the other party.

The great nobles of the Thunder Kingdom would never have imagined that the scheming and cunning princess whom they feared so much was actually trying hard to be intimate with the Dragonborn.

However, is this "well-intentioned" approach sincere or false?

It was difficult for Commander Deloya to explain it clearly.

Because many family members and wives, under the guise of "love", do harmful things under the pretext of feeling that as long as they have feelings, they can hurt without fear.

Princess Melissa and Chu Yan had no emotional foundation. Perhaps she just recognized at first sight that Chu Yan was someone she could rely on in the chaotic situation, so she tried every means to please him and sent out signals of closeness with her actions.

"Commander Deloya, please take a seat!" Princess Melissa, as the host, made a friendly invitation gesture and asked Deloya to take a seat.

Commander De Luoya came back to his senses, smiled politely, then sat down, looked at Chu Yan's behavior, and asked curiously:

"Little Lord, are you thinking about something, or are you chatting with the princess?"

In front of Chu Yan, there was a pair of "shackles" bracelets and a "key" floating, and he was looking at them the whole time.

He retracted his gaze, smiled easily, and explained frankly:

"No, I came here to study runes in the quiet atmosphere of the princess' place. We didn't chat, we just sat together."

There was a flash of surprise in Commander De Luoya's eyes. She admired the princess' perseverance even more. If it was just a small gesture to show intimacy during a casual chat, it would still be understandable, but she was so meticulous even when just sitting there.

"That princess is really meticulous." This is not sarcasm, but a real feeling.

Princess Melissa paused, and soon realized the meaning of the other party's words. She simply said:

"We must ensure that the young lord has a happy mood and ponders those obscure mysteries. The young lord is working so hard, so I am nothing."

Chu Yan raised his eyebrows, looking a little confused. He didn't understand what they were talking about. Why did it seem like a secret confrontation?

He forcefully interrupted their conversation:

"Hey, Commander Deloyah, are you here to say that your state of studying those knowledge has become very good?"

Commander De Luoya showed a look of sudden realization, and she affirmed:

"It seems like this is really a good thing done by the young lord. How did he do it? I have never heard of any ability that can make people smarter."

Chu Yan laughed in silence. He controlled the "key" and flew in front of De Luoya, and opened and closed the [Heavenly Spirit Realm].

Commander Deloya only saw a rune on the handle of the "key" flash, and the feeling of "I have become smarter" that she caught disappeared and reappeared at any time.

She was even more incredulous:

"Is there really such an ability that can help boost one's comprehension talent?"

"It takes a lot of energy to maintain this rune, and it's not as powerful as Commander Deloyah imagined. If an ordinary discipline officer were to comprehend the knowledge of the Archangel of Discipline, it would be useless even with the blessing of the [Heavenly Spirit Realm]."

Chu Yan's remarks seemed a bit Versailles, but he really didn't think they were that strange or powerful.

[Tianling Realm] is far from reaching the talent level of the Tianling people themselves, and they really encounter too profound and obscure knowledge. This rune is indeed just an auxiliary role, allowing those who can learn it to understand and master the profound skills more quickly.

But it cannot play a decisive role in helping a fool to comprehend super-high-level knowledge.

Despite this explanation, Commander Deloya was still amazed. She remembered that during an operation, Chu Yan seemed to have taken out this "key", but it was not used for this purpose at that time.

"My young lord, could you please explain the origin of this key? How could it be so omnipotent?"

"It's hard for me to explain, but all these abilities have nothing to do with this 'key'. They are all due to the runes on it."

"Tale?

.. "

Commander De Luoya looked closely and found that every part of this palm-sized "key" was occupied by unfamiliar "ghostly symbols".

Thinking of what his boss said, the archangel "Discipline" also engraved a rune on Chu Yan's bracelet.

So if a rune represents an ancient and powerful mysterious being, then wouldn't that be...

Chu Yan's connections are so wide?!

"In fact, there are some runes that are directly imprinted on my body, but they have no auxiliary effect on others."

Chu Yan had runes bestowed by the Dragon Witch on his body, which immediately silenced the entire audience and prohibited the use of magic. Last time, he had even betrayed his own people.

"So, the little lord is now covered in seals from witches, right?"

Commander Deloya often behaved in a careless and casual manner, showing little interest in anything, but this time she rarely felt envious.

"That's not so exaggerated..."

Chu Yan smiled embarrassedly.

The conversation did not last long. Commander Deloya figured out the reason for his unusually good learning state and quickly went back to explain it to his superior.

Considering that Chu Yan said that maintaining this [Heavenly Spirit Realm] consumes a lot of energy, we should not waste time chatting and must hurry up!

Chu Yan watched the commander aunt leave, his eyes following her beautiful legs in matte black stockings. As she walked, the matte moved with her steps, which was very eye-catching.

He politely withdrew his gaze only when Commander Deloya disappeared.

Such beautiful legs, it would be disrespectful if you don’t give them a glance!

Just then, he suddenly felt his calf being rubbed, and when he turned around, he found it was Princess Melissa.

She was very uncivilized. She had quietly taken off her high heels at some point, and one of her white and tender feet in black stockings with flowers gently brushed across Chu Yan's calf, as if trying to attract his attention.

Although they acted very friendly, Princess Melissa's face had a very indifferent expression, just like the etiquette demeanor in formal occasions, calm and composed.

If there really comes a serious meeting of multiple parties one day, she could give a speech without changing her expression while rubbing her feet against him under the table. It's all possible...

"What's wrong?" Chu Yan asked in a gentle voice.

"My young lord, you seem to be particularly fond of the black outfits worn by the two people in the Sanctuary of Discipline?"

...Could it be because of this that Princess Melissa specially changed into a black dress today?

Chu Yan waved his hand and explained:

"I can't really say I'm particularly fond of you. Princess, your usual white court dress is also very beautiful!"

This is not just a compliment for show, but a sincere one.

The white court dress that Princess Melissa wears always looks like a wedding dress, and considering her status as a widow, it has a unique charm.

"Then why does the young lord always pay too much attention to them?"

"It's just visual trapping. Their socks are matte, and it's fine if they don't move, but once they move, the reflective spot moves, and my peripheral vision feels like something is shaking, so I look past it.

I seriously suspect this is a despicable battle tactic of the Sanctum of Discipline, and it really disrupts concentration."

Chu Yan is not saying that they are using visual seduction tricks or something like that. It wouldn't be that serious if they changed into black stockings. In actual combat, in the eyes of the other party, it would be no different from just wearing black autumn johns.

But this matte black silk is indeed cheating. If you think about it this way, wouldn't it be a higher bonus if you hang all over your body during battles in the future?

Chu Yan didn't bother explaining, he also praised:

"To be honest, Princess Melissa's outfit today is pretty good. It looks fresh and her socks are as good as those of Pope Camilla. Her usual white court dress is also beautiful and I never get tired of it."

Princess Melissa accepted Chu Yan's words in her heart. It didn't seem like an excuse.

She had indeed heard that some hunters were like blind people without realizing it. When the prey was standing at their feet, they might not notice it, but if the prey moved slightly, the hunter would react instantly.

This is probably the same as what Chu Yan said about visual concentration.

"I was narrow-minded and misunderstood the young lord. I will stop talking now, so as not to disturb the young lord from pondering over his knowledge."

"It's okay. Actually, I'm a little exhausted. It's time to relax. I came here just to open the [Heavenly Spirit Realm] for them to assist them."

"Is it time to rest? Should I call a few maids in to help with the massage?"

Princess, you are being too polite. Besides, I am too embarrassed to ask for more... Chu Yan said in a gentlemanly manner:

"...It would be nice to have the princess sit with you for a while."

As Chu Yan spoke, he placed his hands on Princess Melissa's slender shoulders and pulled her beautiful back towards the chair, not wanting her to sit so uncomfortably.

But Princess Melissa's skin was smooth, and Chu Yan pulled it gently, and her suspenders slid down her white arms. However, her chest was big enough to hold up the skirt and not let it slip down easily.

Princess Melissa had no intention of resisting this kind of touch. Seeing Chu Yan trying to withdraw his hand, she held the man's big hand on her shoulder and said sincerely:
