If even the Pound family were to participate in this chess game of the king selection ceremony...

Then the chess pieces on the chessboard would probably shake.

However... it is indeed a bit strange that a good-for-nothing young master suddenly awakens extraordinary powers.

Just good luck?

Or was it that César was hiding his incompetence in the past and only showed his talent today?

or……

"Cesare..."

Yves looked at the list on the table, thinking about something. She suddenly said, "Shirley, I have something else for you to investigate."

Under Shirley's puzzled gaze, Yves said softly:

"I want to know if anyone in the royal city has made an extraordinary potion today."

Chapter 9: Visit of the Three Princesses

Pound Manor.

It was late at night, in a secluded garden, and Craig, who had just finished a banquet, returned to his room with a gloomy face.

The moment he closed the door, he couldn't help but clench his fist and slammed it heavily.

"Cesare!"

Along with a 'bang', an angry voice followed.

Originally, according to his expectations, after getting engaged to the Third Princess, Xizel would definitely try his best to resist the engagement for his own freedom, and it would only be a matter of time before he fell out with his family.

And because of Xi Zeer's reputation outside, the status of the Third Princess will also be affected.

But now...4

In just one night, everything changed.

Not only did Xizel awaken his extraordinary powers, but he also suddenly became open-minded and decided to marry the Third Princess. Tonight, he also persuaded his father to stand on the side of the Third Princess.

And it seems that Duke Oka has really been thinking about this matter.

Although awakening extraordinary powers often depends on luck, Xizel's luck is too good... His difficult situation has just begun. Somehow, the goddess of fate has given Xizel the power of "Sequence·Destiny".

If there really is a goddess of fate in this world, what is she thinking?

Why would a guy like César, who has always been lazy and gluttonous, awaken the power of destiny?

Craig took a deep breath, trying to keep himself calm as much as possible, and took out a letter from the drawer.

Soon, he ordered his confidant outside the house to deliver the letter.

Now that things have come to this, there is no point in thinking about these things anymore.

The most urgent task now is to inform Novia's family as soon as possible about Xizel's awakening to become a superhuman.

In the past, he underestimated his good brother.

Or rather, it was because César had been hiding too deeply in the past that he had never taken César seriously.

But things haven't gotten completely out of control yet.

What happened tonight did make Duke Oka start to pay attention to his youngest son, César, again, but that was all.

The Clock Tower's special admissions test will be held in a few days. As long as Caesar fails to enter the Clock Tower in the end, in Duke Oka's heart, Caesar will just be a relatively outstanding child.

But that’s all.

The outcome is still undecided, and everything has to wait until the special recruitment assessment is over...

Craig let out a breath softly, looked up at the night sky outside the window, his eyes burning.

Clock Tower...

Even as the eldest son of the Grand Duke, he still yearns for the Clock Tower.

For the nobles in the empire, becoming a student of the Clock Tower means having unlimited possibilities in the future.

After all, one of the few demigods alive is in the Clock Tower.

In this special enrollment, whoever between him and César can pass the assessment and become a student of the Clock Tower will be the one that Duke Oka will most likely lean towards.

And this concerns the future heir position of the Pound family.

Craig murmured to himself: "The battle between us has just begun... Cesar."

……

Reinhardt. Common people in the Camelot Empire may not know this surname, but for those nobles who mingle in the upper circles, this surname holds a very important position.

In the empire, most nobles would treat the name "Reinhardt" with the utmost respect and awe.

After all, the Reinhardt family had once produced a demigod-level "Sword Saint".

Although it is already a thing of the past, the Reinhardt family still holds an extremely honorable status in the Camelot Empire today.

The current leader of the Reinhardt family is Novia's father, Burton Reinhardt.

However, due to his busy schedule recently, Burton occasionally leaves some matters of the manor to his daughter Novia.

Novia did not disappoint her father and managed the entire manor in an orderly manner. She also kept a close eye on news from the outside world.

Especially the recent news about the Pound family...

And just recently, Novia received news that was so outrageous that she couldn't believe it.

"nonsense!"

In a room full of classical and noble style, a red-haired woman sat in front of a dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror with a tone full of displeasure.

Her charming fair face is adorned with light makeup, and her sexy and graceful body is wrapped in a bright red dress, just like a newly ripe peach, enough to make everyone who sees her fall in love with her and be willing to bow down at her feet.

At this moment, this stunning beauty had a hint of anger on her face, her eyebrows furrowed, and she looked at the intelligence letter brought by the servant. There was a hint of anger in her charming voice: "What the hell is the intelligence agent doing? How can such fake news be sent to me?"

Xizel awakened extraordinary powers in just one night...?

Would anyone really believe something like this?

This intelligence agent has never made any mistakes in the past, so how could he make such a low-level mistake this time?

Novia just thought it was ridiculous.

You know, she and Cesar grew up together as childhood sweethearts, and she knew exactly what kind of person that boy who was several years younger than her was.

In the past, when she was honing her sword skills, Xizel always found ways to be lazy.

His body and mental will had not been fully tempered...but now someone suddenly told her that Xizel had become a transcendent?

"Who is in charge of this intelligence?"

Wu Novia asked immediately.

The servant beside Qi hurriedly bowed his head and said, "It's Master Andrea..."

The moment Liu heard this name, the anger on Novia's face gradually dissipated, and her eyes gradually became stunned and dull.

Andrea, he is the leader of several intelligence departments within the family.

The news that he personally delivered was basically verified by him personally, so it couldn't be false.

Does this mean... that Xizel has really awakened his extraordinary power?

In just one night?

"How is it possible... How could he become a transcendent..." Novia muttered to herself.

The first thing needed to awaken extraordinary powers is a strong mental will, but Xizel couldn't even do persistent training in the past, so how could he awaken extraordinary powers?

How on earth did they do that… ?

Take a potion?

But the materials for the extraordinary potion are priceless, and some of them are extremely rare... Even the Pound family cannot prepare such precious things for Xizel in a short period of time.

The possibility is almost zero.

In other words...it was just pure luck?

Novia could never believe that the boy whom she had always secretly looked down upon had become a transcendent like her in just one night.

At this time, the servant who was responsible for reporting the news raised his head slightly and peeked at Novia's charming face, looking a little hesitant.

Novia barely managed to maintain her composure, not hiding her annoyance at all, and asked, "Anything else?"

"According to what Lord Andrea said, you might have to prepare yourself..."

Novia frowned slightly: "What preparations?"

"Master Xizel may become a real enemy in the future, because he does not seem to object to the marriage granted by Her Majesty the Queen, and he intends to support the Third Princess..."

Novia was slightly startled and subconsciously looked at the servant beside her.

"What did you say?"

He has no objection to this marriage...?

If César's awakening of extraordinary powers was unbelievable to Novia, then the servant's words made her doubt whether she was dreaming.

It was not until an unknown amount of time had passed that she came to her senses.

For some reason, I suddenly felt very uncomfortable and awkward.

Novia's father has always had a very good relationship with the Duke of Oka, and Novia once lived in Pound Manor for a long time.

She and Cesar also met at that time.

In the past, the young boy who was just beginning to fall in love had a crush on Novia, and Novia naturally knew it clearly.

However, when love comes too easily, it often makes people feel cheap.

Not to mention, Cesar was not ambitious at all, and at that time he didn't know how to please girls.

Therefore, when Novia accidentally heard her father discussing engagement with Duke Oka, Novia's disgust for Césaire reached its peak.

Even though Xizel had never done anything excessive from beginning to end, and instead expressed his love in his own way, Novia still felt particularly disgusted.

Novia secretly helped promote this marriage in order to prevent the possibility of marrying César in the future.

But when she heard the servant's words, she felt inexplicably annoyed.

"You all should step aside first."

Soon, Novia asked all the servants in the room to leave. After closing the door, she turned around and slowly walked to the window sill and sat down.

In the dead of night, a faint fragrance permeates the garden.

Novia looked up and gazed into the distance through the window.

Sacrificing César for her own happiness... She was still feeling a little guilty about this today.

So logically, she should have been relieved when she learned that César was very satisfied with the engagement.

But for some reason, Novia didn't feel relieved.

Instead, there is an indescribable complex emotion filling my heart.

After staring at the night sky for an unknown amount of time, Novia whispered to herself:

"Cesare, what do you want to do..."

That night, people from all walks of life in the royal city were in an uproar, and countless people were destined to have trouble sleeping.

……

the next day.

The sunny morning was quite hot and humid, and cicadas were chirping desperately in the treetops.

César had a sound sleep on the big, white, soft bed. After getting out of bed, he stretched himself, feeling refreshed.

He had no idea what happened in the outside world last night, and he had no interest in finding out.

Compared to the outside world, he has more important things to do now.

After changing his clothes, César was about to go to the restaurant to have breakfast and then start his next plan.

However, at this moment, a pair of slightly hurried footsteps approached.
