Successors of all mankind

It sounded somewhat like a threat, but the princess simply couldn't understand it. Although she didn't care much about people's opinions, or even their images...

But shouldn't becoming her knight be a really, really good thing?

Power, status, fame, and wealth will all come raining down upon you!

In fact, that's exactly what she asked Yu Le:

"You will possess power far beyond your wildest imagination, a status that others must look up to. Subsequently, your name will be known to every household, and all of this will bring you endless wealth! So, do you really understand?!"

“You can even stay by my side, by my side, the princess of Albion!”

She felt that being able to have someone by her side, and picking that out for herself, was a much better condition than anything before.

Indeed, she was one of the golden bloodlines, the source of all power, and also one of the most beautiful people in the world.

"So why refuse?!"

Is the princess trying to use benefits and promises to make the other party back down and agree?!

The ministers were dumbfounded.

Is this still the Golden Princess they know?

In their memory and understanding, if the Golden Princess wanted something, she would not hesitate to exercise her power and status.

But what is this now?

Are we still asleep?

And why was that guy able to refuse? Even though it was in their best interest...

Their confusion was the same for the Golden Princess.

She was also puzzled that although the other party had rejected her, she did not feel the same disgust and anger as before.

After repeatedly examining Yule, she immediately understood the key, a key that caught her eye.

Because the person in front of her did not evoke any extreme physical aversion in her!

So he simply rejected her, but unlike all his previous encounters, he didn't bring her indescribable nausea and disgust along with his rejection.

This discovery made her want to have the person in front of her even more.

"So, stop refusing and just say yes! Trust me, you'll get far more than you imagine!"

But the more she did this, the more determined Yu Le became of her own ideas.

She definitely sensed something; it's best not to get close to her!

Yu Le, feigning humility as a knight feeling inadequate in his abilities, bowed his head fearfully and said:

"I'm sorry, Your Highness, I'm grateful for your kindness. However, my abilities are far from sufficient to serve as your knight. Please find someone more suitable."

"For example, the knights that you gentlemen have chosen for you?"

The music was an attempt to draw the princess's attention back to the jazz.

But as Yu Le looked at him, Malte was instantly enveloped in a chill.

Because the princess also looked over, with an extremely dangerous gaze!

Oh no, this guy is trying to use someone else to kill someone!

Ah, what a terrifying opponent!

He made the princess believe that our existence was the reason he dared not become her knight. He was inducing this overly willful golden bloodline to exercise the willfulness that His Majesty had suppressed until now!

This way, the Maltese family was severely damaged, allowing him to escape perfectly and become a knight. The Golden Bloodline would also be his shield!

Father, you are right. We have underestimated the successors of Byzantium!

No, I have to go for it!

Marty hurriedly said to the princess:

"Your Highness, his refusal of your kindness makes me suspect that he may have ulterior motives. I request a thorough investigation into his background, and I suspect that he may have been manipulated by someone with malicious intent!"

It's reasonable, but being reasonable is useless.

The more enjoyment exists, the more that completely different feeling contrasts sharply with the glaring, foul odor and the strange terror that still lingers, even though it has improved a lot in adulthood.

She didn't know how to describe that feeling.

It's like you've always thought you live in a filthy place, so you assume everyone is like that, and you think that's the whole world.

But even in such a world, one day you actually smelled clean air.

Then someone tells you, "You can't have this, it's not appropriate."

She had heard this phrase since she was a child. Every time, she endured it.

But this time, she wasn't going to put up with it anymore.

Chapter 11 Rome Endures

Looking at the princess, Marty felt as if he could no longer breathe.

Fortunately, at that moment, a voice broke in.

The man in purple robes calmly stepped between the princess and Marty, humbly cupping his hands and bowing his head, saying:

"Your Highness, since Lord Constantine is not willing, and the other officials also hold different opinions..."

Before he could finish speaking, the princess's question interrupted him:

"Maris, are you going to stop me too?"

Maris was better than others in her eyes, but only slightly.

Their essence remains the same; only their attitudes and purposes when approaching each other differ.

The man in purple robes became even more humble, bowing his head as he said:

"No, Your Highness, I just mean that it would be better to let His Majesty decide!"

This time, after frowning, the princess finally yielded to her father.

The man in purple robes also looked at Yu Ledao:

"Then, Lord Constantine, would you be willing to come with me to see His Majesty?"

"I believe that Your Majesty's wisdom is renowned far and wide, and I also believe that you can trust Your Majesty because of this!"

To see the King of Glory?

Who is the ruler of this world, who is even more powerful than a princess?

To meet an even greater enemy?

Yu Le had considered that refusing might make things more complicated, but she didn't expect it to be this complicated.

The princess was too fixated on him, a complete stranger she had just met.

This exceeded his expectations.

But what should I do now?

If I refuse now, it's like openly admitting to others that I have a problem.

Especially after what this guy just said...

Following the princess, Yu Le also glanced at Maltai with deep displeasure.

Golden bloodline, pure-blooded human.

Marty is probably the first person in history to provoke both of them at the same time.

Finally, Yu Le looked at the man in purple robes and said:

"I don't think there's any problem with that!"

As he answered, Yu Le also scrutinized the purple-robed man before him.

Yu Le should not, in fact, confront the country's supreme ruler at this time, or confront one of his greatest enemies.

But one problem is that he can't choose anything else.

Secondly, he suddenly felt that the purple-robed man's guidance and the princess's appearance seemed too coincidental.

Especially now, his proposal seems to have some other hidden meaning.

Is it simply a matter of being told I can trust the Glory King's wisdom, or...?

A stable life can make people dull, while immense pressure can make people grow rapidly.

When faced with two equally harmful options, choose the lesser one – this has always been the case!

The man in purple robes nodded in satisfaction:

"It's wonderful that you understand, my lord. And Your Highness, what do you think?"

To see my father?

"...good."

After a brief moment of thought, she agreed. Reluctantly, but she did.

Would her father side with her? She wasn't sure. But at least, if it was her father's decision, the ministers couldn't cause any more trouble.

The situation has eased temporarily.

People began to walk toward the throne.

The Golden Princess naturally walked at the front of the group, but she suddenly stopped.

Then, amidst the ministers' fear and unease, he looked at Yu Le at the very back and said:

"Sir, could you stand beside me and not try it out? Even just for a moment?"

She tried to let Yu Le directly experience what power and status are.

This is also what she possesses that makes her most coveted.

That way, he should be able to agree immediately.

Rather than scheming, it's more like a slightly clumsy little girl trying to use all her toys to please a stranger she's just met and get him to stay by her side.

Continue playing with her.

But the toys for little girls are too childish for adults.

"No, Your Highness, thank you for your kindness, but I'll stay here!"

The Golden Princess was rejected once again, which made her turn away with a cold face, but that was it.

The man in the purple robe walked at the very back and stood beside Yu Le.

“My lord, I am very sorry that this has happened. This is not what you hoped for. However, please rest assured that this is the Albion Palace, under His Majesty's rule. Everything is safe!”

"We will not be your enemies either."

Looking at the purple-robed man beside him, Yu Le felt increasingly puzzled; this guy was definitely implying something.

"Lord Maris, I am truly curious, why would you care so much about someone like me who is someone you don't know?"

“You were recommended by Lord Bill, and I am an old friend of Lord Bill. Lord Bill has passed away. Therefore, I must take on his responsibilities. That’s all, sir.”

It's not that simple!

Of course, it's also possible that their friendship transcends their own understanding.

However, Yule cannot believe in this simple and convenient possibility.

“I am a knight from a fallen family, all alone. I have never experienced such a deep friendship. Lord Maris, your friendship with Lord Bill fills me with both doubt and envy.”

Maris didn't answer. He simply smiled, bowed to Yu Le, and said:

"My lord, I am the chief eunuch of the palace. I must go and report to His Majesty first!"

The man in purple robes then left Yu Le's side, passing through the crowd without crossing the Golden Princess.

That's incredibly disrespectful.

Instead, they quickly left via a side path.

He met the throne before all of them.
