“You actually escaped from my Soul Realm?”

[Shadow Priest Xi Fan] looked at Su Yu in disbelief.

Exactly how did a first-order mage escape?

Having just freed himself from the Soul Realm, Su Yu was still reeling from the spiritual shaking.

However, he tried to stay calm, saying in a composed tone, “I am a senior scholar, and wisdom is my most powerful weapon. I can think of at least 100 ways to escape that cage.”

“Haha, 100 ways!” laughed Xi Fan heartily.

“Well then, allow me to witness just what other means you have to escape that cage.”

Xi Fan made his move again, drowning Su Yu in a thick black fog.

“Enough!”

Princess Alyssa stood up, her face stern.

With a wave of her golden staff, a massive ice barrier appeared in front of Su Yu, shielding him from the black fog.

A Frost Engraving materialized behind her.

It appeared that the princess was not only an Elemental Wizard, but also a Combat Mage, a class that was only introduced in the sixth version.

“Xi Fan, let me repeat, every senior scholar is a treasure to the kingdom!” she said sharply.

Xi Fan’s face shifted. This was the first time he had seen the princess casting a spell.

However, he had obtained enough information through his probing. He had successfully identified the princess’s limits.

“Alright, for the princess’s sake, I will spare you this time.”

Without even glancing at Su Yu, Xi Fan transformed into a shadowy wind and exited the royal hall.

“As for Princess Alyssa, just notify me if you need my services in the future.”

Xi Fan’s voice echoed in the hall as his wind form soared high up in the sky, disappearing from sight.

Upon watching Xi Fan leave, Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked towards the princess, who looked quite displeased.

Xi Fan was becoming more and more audacious, going as far as to openly defy her orders and arrest someone in front of her!

However, there was no other choice.

Now at a crucial point of survival, the princess needed Xi Fan’s strength. She couldn’t afford to break off relations with him.

“Nemesis, you need not return to Nolan Village for now. Stay by my side so that Xi Fan won’t dare to act recklessly against you.”

“Also, take this scroll. It can let you see through some soul-related spells and prevent Xi Fan’s underlings from dealing with you.”

Once she finished, the princess took her seat on the throne again, revealing a fatigue on her face that belied her age.

She then took out a scroll from her Space Ring and handed it to her steward, Keerderon, who in turn was to give it to Su Yu.

“Thank you, Princess.”

Once Su Yu received the scroll from Keerderon, he promptly chose to learn from it and managed to upgrade it to an Epic grade.

[Insight (Epic)]: Allows one to see the level, attributes, and main skills of the target. The higher the target’s level, the weaker the effect. Some traces of spiritual entities can also be seen.

Note: When you use Insight, you will also be noticed by the target. Use it wisely.

“Then, Princess.” Su Yu bowed slightly.

“What would you have me do when I am by your side? Despite my unimpressive combat prowess, as a senior scholar who answered 26 out of 30 questions correctly in the examination, I believe I can make a considerable contribution to the empire with my wisdom.”

“Oh? 26 questions?”

Princess Alyssa looked at Su Yu with a focused gaze.

She was well aware of the senior scholar’s exam. Most senior scholars have to take the exam several times over several years, barely managing to pass with only 21 or 22 correct answers.

26 correct answers… Perhaps only one person from Goldfinch City can achieve this in a year, and that person would certainly be a top-notch scholar.

“Nemesis.”

Alyssa stood up, walked slowly toward Su Yu, and asked, “Which field are you majoring in? Do you have a deep understanding of war and power tactics?”

Just then, Su Yu received a “highlighted and bolded” game notification that turned his entire game vision red:

“FBI WARNING: Your response will profoundly impact the main storyline, please answer carefully!”

Su Yu’s complexion changed slightly as he received this system prompt.

However, things have already come to this and Su Yu decided to stick to his initial plan.

“Princess, I am not very familiar with wars and power tactics.”

“Really?”

A hint of disappointment flashed in Alyssa’s eyes.

“However, I specialize in predicting the future. I can foresee the trend of wars and the future situation of the Empire.”

Su Yu smiled, his eyes filled with enigmatic amusement.

“Predict the situation?” Alyssa’s eyes lit up.

However, she was immediately on her guard. She was not a fool. Most who claimed to predict the future were either frauds or charlatans.

But she glanced at the Senior Scholar Badge on Su Yu’s chest and asked tentatively, “So, Mr. ‘Predictor’, can you foresee what I am thinking of doing next?”

Su Yu silently smiled, casting a glance at the surrounding guards.

Understanding, the princess said, “Keerderon, escort everyone out of the hall.”

“Understood.”

Keerderon knelt down to receive the command then swiftly left the room with the guards in tow.

Once the guards had fully exited the room, the princess erected a Soundproof Barrier, encapsulating only her and Su Yu.

“You can speak now, right?”

“Yes,” said Su Yu calmly.

“If I’m not mistaken, you meant to head to the enemy’s main camp, Maple City, to negotiate for time. Upon returning, you plan to instigate a rebellion in Forest City to usurp your father’s position. Am I correct?”

The hand gripping Alyssa’s staff trembled slightly, though her facial expression didn’t change.

Canceling the Soundproof Barrier, she walked to the throne, saying as she walked, “Absurd. I would never betray my father. You definitely guessed that wrong.”

Su Yu remained quiet with his smile.

Only the princess herself knew what she really thought.

However, Su Yu was confident in his guess. After all, he had read the script.

“However,” Su Yu suddenly changed the topic, his tone becoming sincere, “The reason I came here was because I foresaw that victory later on would side with you. For the glory of Goldfinch Empire, I am willing to fight alongside you always!”

‘I !!” Alyssa turned to look at Su Yu.

“Ding! [Princess Alyssa]’s affection for you increased by 1, from ‘Indifferent’ to

‘Cool’. ”

“Ding! You gained 1 point in World Prestige.”

NPC’s affection levels are categorized as ‘Wary – Cool – Indifferent – Aware Friendly – Warm’.

However…

“Who would have thought that even Princess Alyssa has affection levels? I don’t remember hearing about any player yielding affection from the princess in my past life…” Su Yu contemplatively murmured.

But he was interrupted by the princess’s words.

Sitting high on her throne, Alyssa looked down upon Su Yu, “Nemesis, I will be hosting an important meeting in three days. It is about negotiating with Maple

City. You will join us.”

“Ding! Your main storyline has been updated! [The Glory of the Goldfinch Empire (8/100)].”

“Mission Requirement: Arrive at the front gate of Goldfinch Royal Palace promptly after 6 hours. Countdown 5:59:58.”

“Mission Reward: 500 Experience Points..”
