Reject me, you damn woman.

"Because this is not an equal contract, but a slave contract~"

"I see. I'm so sorry."

After Lin En finished speaking, he suddenly spread his hands, and a silver light flashed. The contract that was originally handed to Hedwig appeared in his hands again, while the contract in Hedwig's hand was just an ordinary arcane scroll.

"Then I cannot continue this transaction, because around me, there are no slaves, only comrades."

Hedwig was slightly startled when she heard that, then she laughed softly, her body shaking.

"Your Highness Lin En, you are such an interesting person. Unfortunately, you will be disappointed this time. I have already signed the scroll for you in advance, and it will automatically take effect as soon as you touch it."

"But don't worry,"

Hedwig lowered her head and said shyly:

"Because in this contract, the slave object is me."

Suddenly, a huge alarm rose in Lin En's heart. A suffocating feeling like being entangled by a python suddenly came from a distant place, crossed the space, and fiercely entangled Lin En.

At this time, the silver-haired princess raised her head and pushed aside her hair. Her face, which was somewhat sickly flushed, still had the afterglow of a smile and shyness:

"However, I'm sorry, Your Highness Lin En. In order to ensure that I will not be controlled by the arcane magic of other forces or betrayed, the court arcanist of Fire Rose has placed guardianship on my soul. Once my soul is interfered with, the court arcanist will come and destroy all visible enemies without explanation."

"So, in order to survive, please struggle as hard as you can. This is the last test before I make a deal with you, Master~"

Chapter 176: Shocked! The eldest daughter of the Fire Rose Emperor actually secretly...

Rose City, above the palace.

A figure wrapped in flames suddenly rose from a building in the palace, and then, undisguised scorching magic energy violently spewed out, not to kill the enemy, but to accelerate.

These flames, which are usually enough to burn a hundred-forged iron armor in an instant, are now spraying out like crazy under the will of their owner, with only one goal: to speed up, speed up, and speed up again!

Soon, most of the Rose City saw the fiery meteor that streaked across the city. Countless people ran out of their homes to look at it and cheered. The ordinary people did not understand the meaning of this fiery meteor, they were just excited to see this beautiful and spectacular spectacle.

But in the eyes of those who truly understand the arcane arts and those in power, there is only shock.

It was not only because of the powerful magic power that the figure itself mobilized, but also because of its clothes.

The scarlet-hued wizard robe, with golden roses as the backdrop, was the symbol of the Fire Rose Empire's court arcanist.

The Arcanist is a free and lonely profession. He was chosen by the Magic Network and mastered the "magic power". From then on, he went further and further on the road of "seeking".

But at the same time, being an arcanist is also an extremely expensive profession. Just a piece of high-quality parchment will cost several gold coins, not to mention the research of potions, precious materials, and the acquisition of high-level arcane skills and rare items. Each of these is a bottomless pit that swallows up gold.

But not all arcanists are good at dealing with people, or able to monetize their talents.

Therefore, most arcanists would choose to join a certain force and be supported by it, in exchange for helping the other party when needed.

The court arcanist who is supported by the resources of the entire empire is undoubtedly the best paid among them, and also... the most terrifying.

Every court arcanist is either gifted or powerful.

Moreover, he had gone through numerous tests and remained loyal to his country and monarch.

This is one of the trump cards that every country must have. Unless it is absolutely necessary, the court arcanist will not take action, at least not publicly.

Therefore, while the civilians were cheering for witnessing this miraculous scene, countless people were secretly shocked by the actions of the court arcanist.

A court arcanist was forced to use his magic power so wastefully to travel within the imperial city in broad daylight?

What happened?

At that moment, countless forces, both overt and covert, followed the movements of this figure and began to move at high speed, just to get the reason why the court arcanist was making such a big fuss before others.

"Hurry up, hurry up, the Court Arcanist's move will definitely make our headlines in tomorrow's newspapers!"

"There are melons to eat, come on, brothers!"

In a humble building in a slum, the two parties who were discussing something suddenly fell out:

"Damn it! I knew you bastard nobles were planning to plot against us!"

The black-robed man at one side of the negotiation table suddenly overturned the table, and his companions behind him also revealed a terrifying aura, evil, corrupt, and bloody.

On the other side of the negotiation table, however, the people still maintained unusual restraint:

"Calm down. Given the depth of our friendship now, what good would it do me to betray you? Moreover, that aura was not directed at us at all. Can't you see that?"

"Hmph, it's good that you know it. If you dare to betray us, you know what we... and that tower can do."

Seeing the man in black robe sitting back with a gloomy face, the man pressed his forehead helplessly:

"What happened today? The table was overturned twice in one day... But I always feel that the direction that person's aura is going to seems familiar."

"Hey,"

He suddenly raised his head and said to the man opposite him whose face was covered in a black robe:

"Send your people to find out what that person is up to."

"Right on my mind."

.........

In a luxurious room on the top floor of the bustling Chamber of Commerce building, Sir Drake pushed open the door of the room in a panic, only to see his lord, the Third Princess Hilteria, leaning against the gorgeous French window, watching with interest the fireball that streaked across the sky and was falling towards the southern city area.

"Your Highness, you are looking for me?"

Derek spoke hurriedly.

"Drake, send someone to analyze the destination of this guy above us, and have our people wait there in advance."

Drake quickly agreed, but looking at the light in Hilteria's eyes, he was still a little confused.

Hilteria's orders are understandable, but the princess has never looked down upon those court arcanists, so she shouldn't be so interested.

Hilteria was just playing with the ends of her bright red hair with interest.

Normally, this princess who goes her own way would not bother to care about such things that everyone would join in the fun. At most, she would listen to the reports made by her subordinates after the event. But this time, things were different.

With her beautiful eyes moving, Hilteria's gaze descended from the sky and looked towards a corner of the southern city.

Although it was just a hunch, she felt that this matter might be related to a guy she had just met.

.......

Inside the Church of Mother Earth, Sister Nina hurried to the door of the confessional.

"Sister Celitia............"

"I already know, Mammy."

Celitia's voice came from the room.

"Judging from the magical aura, it should be the Fire Rose's court arcanist. He is a young and powerful force, but he has nothing to do with us."

The voice coming from the confessional was solemn and sacred, as if it carried some kind of magic that calmed down Aunt Nina, who was originally a little panicked.

"Sorry, sister, I just lost my temper."

Yes, why should I panic? So what if I am the court arcanist of Fire Rose? This is the Church of Mother Earth, this is the land of gods.

The way I behaved just now was totally inappropriate. It would be disgraceful if those little nuns saw it.

However, what surprised Aunt Nina even more was Celitia.

This sister once again demonstrated her steadiness and composure, which is worthy of respect.

What made Aunt Nina more confident was the calmness in Celitia's tone.

Clerics are a different profession from knights or arcanists, and the power of clergy is difficult to define. Although Celitia is the youngest bishop, the upper and lower limits of a bishop are extremely large.

A floor-brick-level bishop is simply a mascot, and may not even be able to defeat a three-ring arcanist. However, a ceiling-level bishop is no less powerful than an eight-ring arcanist.

The reason why they are still bishops is that some are too humble and some are waiting for the opportunity to be promoted to "red robes".

Aunt Nina had never seen Celitia demonstrate her strength, but the lowest level of the Fire Rose's court arcanist was seven rings.

In other words, Lady Celitia, at such a young age, already has the strength of the seventh ring level?

"However, even so, we still can't be too careless."

Celitia said again:

"Although the imperial election has not yet begun, since we are already in place as judges, there are some duties that we must fulfill."

"what do you mean?"

Aunt Nina asked curiously.

"God gave us eyes to see,"

Celitia said calmly:

"Let's release our eyes and ears to see what the court arcanist wants to do. We no longer need to cover our eyes."

"Yes!"

"I'll let the other sisters keep an eye out."

Sister Nina's spirits suddenly lifted. She seemed to gain strength from Celitia's calmness.

What a reliable sister!

As expected of that person...

In fact, there was another piece of speculative information. Aunt Nina was afraid that it would affect Celitia's meditation mentality, so she didn't intend to tell her. But now it seems that she was worrying too much.

Besides, Celitia is the highest-ranking clergyman in the church now, and it is only right and proper that I should tell her.

"Oh, yes, but speaking of which, the destination of the court arcanist seems to be not far from us."

"Not far?"

Celitia was curious.

"Yes, his destination seems to be the South City, and it seems to be the mansion of the Grand Prince. The sister who came back last said that it seemed that Mr. Lin En had actually come back. Isn't that a coincidence? Haha..."

Aunt Nina's laughter gradually died down.

Because Celitia didn't smile.

"Mammy, I've changed my mind. Don't worry the other sisters."

"Hey, aren't you going to check on the situation?"

Aunt Nina was startled.

"Didn't you just say that we no longer need to..."

"No, I mean,"

There was a sound of a chair being moved in the confessional.

"I'll go there myself!"

"?"

.........

While the outside world was in a panic because of the meteor that streaked across the sky, inside the mansion, Lin En was still sitting on the chair, sipping black tea elegantly, but Hedwig was not so calm.

Her Royal Highness the Princess collapsed on the ground, her skirt spread out like a pleated flower, her plump breasts heaving, her cherry lips slightly parted, as if one could see the heat turning into white mist coming out of the girl's mouth, the intoxicating blush on her face not only did not fade, but became even more rosy and beautiful.

"That's really too much, Your Highness Hedwig. Your Highness and I are very close, but I never thought that Your Highness would think so hard about me."

Lynn took a sip of tea and put the porcelain teacup back on the table beside her.

"Ha...ha, I'm sorry, Your Highness Lin En,"

Hedwig tried her best to suppress her panting.

"But the choice is yours whether to redeem a weak girl, isn't it?"

Lin En was silent for a while. The choice was still his, but the cost of rejection was a little severe.

He had to admit that the development of things was somewhat beyond his expectations. Hedwig was crazier and more...rebellious than he had imagined.

Looking at Hedwig's lower abdomen, which was still glowing with purple light through her dress, Lin En felt a little emotional.

He originally thought that the eldest princess of the Fire Rose Empire was really as Historia said, a good sister who was wholeheartedly concerned about the overall situation, full of responsibility and caring for her younger brothers and sisters, and a princess who was willing to give everything for the harmony of the empire.

It now seems that the former is debatable, while the latter is completely wrong.
