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

Chapter 468 Princess Emily Kersh
at dinner.

As a wide variety of delicious food was served, without Randall coming in to disrupt the atmosphere, the atmosphere at the table was obviously much better than the first time.

Luyi sat close to Princess Emily Cash, making the king laugh.

Vimir finally tasted the royal lobster, but Anaing beside her didn't even have time to speak, which made her sister hold her forehead with her hands.

"Hahaha, great! If there's anything missing, I'll have the servants bring more!"

"Ugh……"

Lovelli shook her head while moving her knife and fork. It was amazing that they could still enjoy the dinner so carefree after knowing the inside story. This group of people could really make a scene wherever they went.

But it's worth it to see my father smile like this.

"Please don't mind," Princess Emily Kash said softly, looking at them, "Your Majesty and I are very happy that you are here. Please treat this place as your home."

"I never thought such a beautiful person was Lovely's mother," Chloe smiled and looked up and exclaimed, "You look really young!"

"Haha, I'm glad to hear you say that."

The few of them chatted casually without any worries. The princess wiped the crumbs from the corner of Luyi's mouth while gently smiling. Every move she made looked beautiful and generous.

At the same time, that fragility makes people feel pity unconsciously.

If you look at the princess and Lovell together, both of them have looks that do not belong to their age, but have long light blonde to white hair of similar color, and ivory-like, flawless skin. The atmosphere between them leaves no doubt that it is the warmth that only exists between mother and daughter.

Luo Wei sat at the last seat and watched the scene quietly.

The princess's physical condition could not withstand too much shock. If he had not considered this, there would be no need for him to talk to Evan.

"Speaking of which, have many important figures from various countries come to the capital recently?" Halfway through the topic, Princess Emily Kash looked at her daughter and asked softly.

"That's true," Lovelli did not deny. "After all, the elite competition is not far away. In addition to the kings of many small countries, the second prince of the Hooffire Empire is also here."

"Then..." Princess Emily looked at the king with a worried look, "Sure enough, we should still come forward, right? The palace can still provide some help.

"No."

Lovell rejected her mother's suggestion.

There was no need to think about this matter. How could her father show up in his current state? She should have considered this before coming. If she left them alone and let them take action on their own, it would be troublesome.

Thinking of this, she glanced at Luo Wei. Could it be that this guy asked her to visit the Queen Mother just because of this?

"This isn't an official visit. These people are just here to compete. Please don't escalate this into a diplomatic incident and cause me trouble."

"But……"

"Don't say buts," Luo Fuli glanced at her father, who was having fun playing with An Ning with the lobster's claws. "I came here today to talk to you about this matter. I will handle it if there is any problem. Anyway, you just don't interfere."

Unable to persuade her daughter, the princess finally compromised after insisting for a few more sentences.

However, because she couldn't help in any way, a lonely look appeared in her eyes.

"Okay, stop looking so pitiful!" Lovely couldn't do anything about her mother, but she was relieved. "I'll try not to make you worry."

"If you encounter any difficult problems..."

"I know, I know! If you do this, I will feel burdened next time I come back. Don't you want me to come back to see you?"

Seeing her daughter's attitude, the princess knew that nothing she said would help, so she did not mention the matter again.

And Saya was observing the king's reaction, frowning deeply.

Since he already knew there was a problem, he was surprisingly indifferent to such things. On the other hand, even though this was their second meeting, the king didn't react at all to that bastard. He didn't even ask who he was or why he was here.

Noticing Saya's gaze, Luo Wei, who was drinking soup from his bowl and staying out of the matter, darkened his face.

Please don't cause trouble for me.

No matter what they talked about, the king was in this state now. No one could help him. In the last round, he had pulled the other party's beard and studied the face closely, but he had not been able to give a proper response.

It was better for him not to respond. If someone looked him in the eye and asked him about his relationship with his daughter and this group of girls, Luo Wei would not know how to answer.

If it were a normal king, he would have grabbed his neck and asked him what was going on.

After the dinner, Princess Emily Kersh gave each of them a box of homemade snacks, even Love got one. While complaining that her mother did not take care of her body, Loveli instructed the maid not to let her do such hard work next time.

"If there is anything missing or needed in the manor, please feel free to come to me..."

"Okay, got it," Lovely pushed her mother to the door, "You should worry more about yourself than others!"

"But you are my daughter..."

The princess was blocked from saying anything else by the door. Lovely turned around unhappily. Every time she wanted to show concern for her, she would end up being the one being cared for more. It was not like she didn't have bakers under her command. Was she really worried that she would starve to death in the manor?

After leaving the palace, the group boarded the carriage back to the manor.

"Speaking of which...has the princess always been in poor health?" asked Vimir, who was sitting opposite.

Because she had heard Luo Fuli mention it before, she paid close attention today. The princess's magic power is thinner than that of ordinary people, but the upper limit of her magic capacity is not low. She heard that noble families like this can often pass on high-quality magic bloodlines, but the princess feels like she can't use magic.

Lovely had nothing to hide about this matter.

"It's not because of a disease or anything, but because she was born weak and couldn't gather magic power. My mother had never left the house before she married into the Lion Court royal family."

"Ah...?" Chloe was stunned when she heard it for the first time. "You mean, you've never left your room?"

"That's right." Lovely nodded.

The carriages were not far apart, and Ayining on the other side also heard it. She knew some prescriptions for regulating qi and blood, but the princess herself had her own court therapist. Before understanding the specific pharmacology and conditioning methods, giving rash advice might not necessarily help the body, depending on the person's physique and suitability of the medicine.

Chloe couldn't imagine what that life was like.

The princess is obviously a very gentle and kind person, but if you think about it carefully, she really gives people the feeling that she is a bird trapped in a cage, as if her wings will be broken by the wind.

"It must have been very difficult for her to give birth to you." Luo Wei's casual voice came from the carriage behind.

"……Um?"

Several people pricked up their ears at once.

Lovely frowned with disdain. It seemed as if this guy knew her mother very well.

And what happened to him today? He seemed to have no presence the whole day. It was he who suggested going to the palace, but it seemed that he just went there to eat and came back without doing anything. His father ignored him at the dinner table, and he ignored his father, and he didn't go to visit his mother.

When the carriage arrived at the manor, night had completely fallen. After the group took a bath, Lovely summoned the knight who came to report.

"The knights of the Principality of Aselant held a secret meeting in a house in the noble district. Levi Krusel's envoys stayed in their room with the door closed all day and did not come out. In addition, several important figures from small countries were touring various parts of the capital, but we noticed that some of their team left halfway and met with someone of unknown identity."

After hearing the information received today, Lovelli remained silent and pondered for a moment.

"Where is the second prince of the Hooffire Empire?"

"Prince Kidd has been fine these past two days, except that he went to the kitchen seven times today, and once he only brought back an onion..."

"understood."

After the knight left, Lovely slowly leaned back in her chair.

All of the people who came at once were prominent figures from various countries, all of them were battle-hardened warriors who had won regional elite competitions. If this force was used by someone, it would be no joke. Gathering them in the annex had the purpose of both protection and supervision.

I really hope they don't do anything too outrageous. …

Melendell, Noble Quarter.

In an old but elegantly decorated house, a group of knights from the Principality of Aselant stood around a long table.

"We are doing a holy cause here, and it's not easy. Thank you for your assistance, Keller."

"This house was originally purchased by my uncle for his retirement. Now he died on the battlefield, at the hands of the knight student he personally taught."

"We experienced the pain of losing our country... I can't imagine how we got through those dark days. Battlefields, conspiracies, smoke, and sharp blades coming from behind. We even swore to protect the people of Lion Garden! But they...! We must take back everything we have lost, while it is still possible!"

"Calm down, we are the only will left of Acelant."

The knights grew indignant.

"Of course I understand! Those villains broke their oaths, but the knights of Acelant will never do that! But what can we do with our current strength? The enemy has no honor at all!"

"We are running out of options... Even if the light of Acelant fades, it must not fade in obscurity."

"Even if we have to die here, we must let the people of Lion Garden see our existence and hear our cry! No matter what, give the order! The will of Aselant lives on!"

The heated words eventually turned into silent anger, and everyone looked at the silent man who remained silent. He was their deputy knight commander.

The man took a step forward and placed one hand on the long table.

"We need to be aware of this matter. We are going to burn the last light of Acelant." The bearded man showed a steady chin under his hood. "Are you ready for this?"

"Yes!"

"Of course!"

"Standby!"

"We cannot use extreme methods, because that will not avenge our enemies," said the deputy knight commander, "nor can we vent our anger on the people, because that would violate our oath, and none of us would survive. Do you dare to come with me?"

"Show them what a knight of Aselant is!" A knight drew his sword.

"It's just a life. My soul has long been buried in that soil!"

The knights drew their swords one after another and raised them together, even though they knew that what they were doing was a one-way journey and might seem meaningless to outsiders.

But they have to do it.

This was Acelant's final roar! If the world is not allowed to see it, history books will not record how unfairly they were treated!
The deputy knight commander was the last to draw his sword.

He was leading these fearless young men to hell, but they had no allies in their former homeland.

"Then..."

The deputy knight commander was about to speak when the ground suddenly shook.

Before they could understand what was happening, there was a series of shakings. The knights held onto the table in shock. Although the situation was minor, what on earth was going on?

"Outside! Go and see outside!" The knight guarding outside rushed in hurriedly.

The knights immediately rushed out the door without even having time to sheath their swords. When the red light from above shone on their faces, everyone's expression was filled with astonishment.

The knights of Aselant watched this scene in disbelief.

"What the hell..."

……

Melendal, Lower Town.

By the side of a canal, two portly men in hooded robes were chatting.

"Don't worry, leave this matter to me."

"Then I'm relieved. The situation in Lion Court is too complicated, and King Compton just wants to take precautions."

"I understand. The current situation is difficult to predict. It is said that even the secret organizations underground in the theocratic world are making moves."

"Haha... our small country just wants to protect itself. Who dares to touch that prime minister... Wait, what is that?"

One of the wealthy men raised his head and looked into the distance. The other also turned around and then stood there in a daze, not coming to his senses for a long time.

After being surprised, the two looked at each other briefly.

Then both sides fell into a long stagnation.

……

Melendel, main city area, Royal Athletic Pavilion.

Kidd, who was playing with his sister, noticed the fire outside the window. He held down her little head, gave the maid a look, and went to the window alone to confirm.

When he saw clearly what it was, his expression darkened slightly.

"It looks like Lion Court is in big trouble."

But soon he looked back.

"It looks like I'm going to be in big trouble too," he said with a wry smile, "Is it true that trouble can't be escaped anywhere?"

……

Melendell, Church City.

As the weather turned cold, pubs with few customers closed earlier than scheduled, which was particularly evident in the Cathedral District.

On the crooked and crowded street, a damp wooden door opened, and a tall figure over two meters tall, wrapped in black bandages, walked out, holding a scepter with a bloody tip. In the room behind him, several demon worshippers whose bodies had undergone abnormal changes were lying crookedly on the ground.

A cold wind blew.

The tall figure raised his head and saw a man in a tattered coat and with yellow eyes staring at him coldly on the low roof across the street.

"We finally meet, Holy Maiden Guardian," Chaham said.

"..."

The figure did not respond.

The cold wind continued to blow. Chaham sat on the edge of the roof. There was no emotion in his clear yellow eyes. The two looked at each other up and down in the night. The air around them seemed to solidify.

At this moment, a muffled sound suddenly came from the distant horizon.

Chaham first observed the figure's reaction, then turned his head. The firelight reflected in his pupils, and his eyes narrowed involuntarily.

Both of them looked in that direction. Chaham glanced at the other person out of the corner of his eye and then smiled bitterly.

He saw——

What he saw was——

In the northwest direction, at the Holy Mount of Uriel, the Lion Palace located under the cliff, suffered a large-scale explosion at this moment, and violent flames rose up.
