It's not the protagonist, what does it matter if you are trapped in the Shura field

Chapter 464 You are such a popular scumbag!
"Haha! Is this the capital of Lion Garden? That's great!!"

"We are sorry for the poor hospitality. We have prepared a sumptuous dinner for guests coming from afar. I hope you have a wonderful journey in Melendel."

"Haha, Fifth Princess, you are too polite!"

For several days, Lovely personally welcomed delegations from all over the place. As visitors from foreign countries poured in one after another, colorful flags were hung along the main roads of Melendelle.

After all, there are more than just contestants accompanying this situation.

The residents of the royal city seemed to be infected by the festival. Each block was decorated and stalls were set up outside. A wide variety of food tasting activities and specialty product promotions emerged one after another. The streets were bustling with lights and decorations, and every pub was packed with people.

"What did the sheriff of the royal city say?" After chatting with the king of a small neutral country, Lovely asked the knight who was responsible for delivering the message.

"There were a few fights and chaos," the knight responded, "but they are all under normal control. The Vigilante Group doesn't need to worry."

"Really...that's good."

The sheriff also received orders from the prime minister to assist in maintaining public order in the city.

Just as she breathed a sigh of relief and was about to give some instructions on coordination matters, a White Bell Knight rode over on horseback to report to her.

"Your Highness, the Fifth Princess, the delegation from the Hooffire Empire is about to arrive at the city gate."

"Is it finally here?" Loveli's expression darkened as she glanced at Luo Wei who was standing beside her. At this stage, she felt more at ease.

When the war horses with their flaming iron hooves walked slowly into the city gate with their heads held high, the people of Lion Garden who came to watch created an atmosphere that was completely different from the one that greeted other countries.

Looking at the burning imperial flag and the imperial horses that were taller and more majestic than any other horses in Lion Garden, it was impossible for the people of Lion Garden not to show hostility to the only great power in the entire Western Continent that could compete with their country, and they were at war. Because they were at war with them, they had to pay more taxes than usual and were also likely to be forced to conscript at any time.

After all, Lion Garden itself is not a kingdom known for its hospitality.

The goodwill towards other countries is more a result of pride in one's own country.

The Empire's army marched through the city gate in a mighty force. They looked ruthless in their helmets, almost as powerful as an entire order of knights. The golden chariot frames and luxurious formations were a constant reminder that Lion Garden was not the only powerful country on the continent.

Lovely, who arrived earlier, had already noticed the tense atmosphere, and rode a white horse to meet the enemy head-on, accompanied by the Knights.

The entire army of the Hooffire Empire came to a halt when she approached.

Sif, the leader of the White Bell Knights who was standing behind Lovely, had a slightly gloomy look in her eyes. These imperial knights did not make any unnecessary movements when executing orders. I'm afraid each of them was the elite among the elites.

The curtain of the golden carriage was drawn aside, and a young man with a resolute face and easy-going eyes stepped down. He took the horse brought by the servant and performed an imperial gentleman's salute to Lovelli.

"It's an honor to meet you, the fifth princess of Lion Garden," the man with black curly hair said with a kind smile, but it couldn't hide the golden crown on his head, "Please forgive the rude behavior of these knights behind me."

"I see," Lovely pulled the reins and vaguely understood why the Empire sent so many troops. "You should be the rumored Gidenus William Albert Ludwig."

"Just call me Kidd." The man smiled slowly.

No wonder there are so many elite soldiers from the Hooffire Empire following the other side.

The man in front of him is the second prince of the Tihuo Empire, and the queen's first child is a princess, which means that he has the first legal right of inheritance and is likely to be the emperor of the empire in the future.

Of course, it was just what Loveli heard from others. She heard that the eldest princess of Tihuo was dissatisfied with giving up her inheritance rights, and had already obtained the support of Marshal Bei, the patron saint of the empire.

Why would a royal dignitary like this come to Lion Garden?
"Let's talk while we walk?" Prince Kidd II pointed to the road ahead and said a little embarrassedly.

As Kidd climbed onto his horse and rode side by side with Lovely on the main road of the royal city, the knights behind both sides began to move. The knights of the Lion Garden protected the outside of the Knights of Hooffire. They were competing with each other, but there seemed to be a barrier between them.

Facing the people's gazes directed at her, for the first time, Lovelli did not want such support. They completely regarded her as a face to compete with foreign princes.

"This is Rowe Brooke, right?"

While walking on the road, Kidd suddenly looked at Rowe who was following Lovely's horse.

"You still know him?" Lovelli held the reins elegantly. Judging from her aura, she certainly would not be willing to be timid in front of the other party.

"Of course, Marcus specifically mentioned his intelligence, and Difas also spoke highly of him. How could such a talent not make the Empire jealous?"

"Then you can give up this idea." Loveli spoke without showing any mercy to the other party.

"Haha... I was just saying it casually," Kidd laughed heartily, then looked around, "Of course, if you think the current treatment is not good enough, the Hooffire Empire welcomes you at any time. The current system of the Empire has enough space for you to show your talents."

"Hey hey...!" Loveli was anxious.

As soon as the enemy's prince entered the city, he started poaching her people. Kid pulled the reins to apologize, then smiled and said that he just wanted to see him in person.

Luo Wei yawned slowly between the two of them, and he was too lazy to express his opinion.

"Why did you come to Melendel?" Lovely frowned and looked at Luo Wei's reaction, then raised her head and said, "The situation in your country shouldn't be so peaceful, right?"

Kidd didn't look at Lowe again, but looked up and forward.

"Do you even need to ask?" He smiled in a casual tone, "I am the elite champion of Huiyang City, the capital of the Hooffire Kingdom."

……

The venue chosen to entertain contestants from all over the country was a luxurious villa to the west of the main urban area, not far from the Wangli Grand Arena. It was originally used to entertain foreign guests who came to watch the games. After Lovelli obtained consent for its use, it was rebuilt and became as luxurious and grand as it is today.

A series of renovations are being carried out in full swing, including a competition street that suits the atmosphere.

After sending Second Prince Kidd into the annex, Lovely finally breathed a sigh of relief. When she came out of the door and turned around, her eyes became a little resentful.

"What's wrong?" Luo Wei said with a light smile, "You don't think that what he said was really a compliment to me, do you?"

"You are such a popular scumbag," Loveli said resentfully, not paying attention to what he said, "The Craftsmen's Guild, my two brothers, and now the second prince of the Hooffire Empire, how come I didn't realize that you are so popular?"

“So I chose you.”

"If you really had to choose one of them, who would you choose?"

"Kid, right..." Luo Wei spread out one hand and answered without thinking, "He has a good personality, don't you think?"

Lovely bit his arm without any hesitation.

And you are a small fry who has not been praised to the sky by the other party!!

Luo Wei smiled and pushed her down. He said this on purpose. The second prince was indeed very kind and nice to others, but forget about assisting him. He did have his own agenda.

"I didn't expect that the other party came here to participate in the elite competition..." Seeing through his tricks, Loveli held her chin in her hand and began to think.

After the incident in Wuguan City, the Hooffire Empire asked her for the right to host the elite competition sub-district, but unexpectedly, the prince was also implicated.

Isn't this even more troublesome?

Although the essence of competition is to determine the winner, it is not uncommon for contestants to lose their lives. If Kidd died in the elite competition, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"This isn't the most troublesome thing, is it?" Luo Wei said, closing his eyes. "Didn't the contestants from the Principality of Aselant arrive yesterday? They were much more serious than today."

"..."

Lovely was speechless for a moment.

Prime Minister Randall's unprovoked attack caused the capital of the Principality of Aselant to fall directly. The army that had lost its prince still rushed to the frontal invasion line of the Lion Garden without hesitation, and the casualties were extremely tragic.

When their contestants entered the city yesterday, there were still blood stains on their dented armor, and they looked at every Lion Garden person they met with hostility.

Why should I clean up Randall’s mess...!
Being invaded by their own motherland is equivalent to denying their own legitimate identity. It is not surprising that these homeless knights do anything under this situation.

"There is also a demon nation in the westernmost part of the continent that believes in the Dark Sun. It would be suspicious if they could send people to participate in the competition at this time, right?"

"You mean... 'Levi = Korusel'," Lovely looked puzzled, "the distant country where demons and humans coexist?"

"Ah."

Hearing Luo Wei's answer, Luo Fuli immediately remembered what he said before: "There must be war on the mainland during this period."

"Levi = Korusel", only the kingdom of God designated by the present God would have such a strange name, it is a country far away from the hinterland of the continent, and there is not much news from it. Their people did arrive in Melendel yesterday morning, and although they heard that there was a war there, there didn't seem to be much news from the nearby Hooffire Empire.

"What's going on over there?"

"What happened?" Luo Wei smiled sarcastically. "It can probably be described as a dark and chaotic situation. Sixty percent of the country's population is gone."

"??"

Could something so tragic have happened so far away from here?
The fact that they still come from afar to participate in the competition at a time like this really gives people the impression that they are planning something.

"How can you even ask about something so far away... Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask." Lovely gave up.

Luo Wei had nothing to explain. It was a life-or-death battle between the two sides. The Dark Sun was just like that, and they couldn't intervene. In comparison, the war in the central part of the continent did seem like a minor incident. To some extent, it was thanks to Randall's swiftness that the battlefield did not become a meat grinder after being stalemated.

Just like he said before, if you stop a war in one place, a war will pop up in another place, and the situation in Wuguan City and Senkamanda will only be delayed.

And it is said that there is also a war in the East.

However, there are very few contestants coming from there, not because the journey is too far, but because the rule that sword masters are not allowed to participate makes them sneer at this event.

"Rovy?"

A familiar voice came from behind. Luo Wei and Luo Fuli looked over one after another. In the bright afternoon sun, the short golden hair looked particularly dazzling.
