Chapter 116


Earl Carson, Prince Alan, and the others arrived at a luxurious restaurant followed by their respective guards and servants .

Once they reached the restaurant, two waiters greeted them respectfully with a bow .

"Your highness, Earl, please follow us . " One of the waiters said .

The earl and the prince nodded and followed after the waiters .

They were led to a private room on the last floor, far from other people's ears and perfect for a secret meeting .

"Young master and miss Alice are waiting for you inside . " The waiter said . Earl Carson nodded and proceeded to enter the room followed by the prince the others . Each one of them was followed by a personal servant, so a total of eight people entered the private room .

When they entered, they saw a young man and a white-haired girl seated in front of a table . An old man and a young female knight were standing behind the white-haired girl, and an ice-cold looking woman was standing behind the young man .

Seeing the group enter, the girl and the young man stood up respectfully . The white-haired girl curtsied elegantly and let out a small giggle .

"Your highness Alan, Earl Carson, it's a pleasure to meet you . "

"The pleasure is mine, Miss Alice . " Prince Alan answered . His eyes shone with a spellbound look when he saw the sickly beauty of the white-haired girl . "You are much more beautiful than the last time we met . "

Alice covered her mouth and giggled innocently . "Your highness has also become much more handsome . " She then shot a brief look to the clearly displeased Christine (Alan's fiancée) and a peculiar light flashed through her eyes .

"Allow me to do the introductions . " Changing the topic, Alice looked at the young man beside her . "This young master is Albert Carmell . He arrived at the capital recently on behalf of his family and accepted my invitation to this meeting . "

The young man smiled . "How can I reject the invitation of a beauty like Miss Alice?"

Alice giggled and remained silent . The prince, on the other hand, looked deeply at the young man .

Earl Carson raised his eyebrows when he heard the young man's name . "So young master Albert is someone of the Carmell family huh . It explains young master Albert's exceptional bearings . "

"You flatter me, Earl Riea . "

The group then started some small talks about different topics and conversed cordially . Soon, some servants brought various kinds of dishes and beverages to the group .

Alice started to eat happily, tasting a bit of each dish . Afterward, she looked at the earl and asked in an innocent tone .

"Right, Earl Carson, it's rare of you to arrive late to a meeting . Did something happen?"

The one who answered was Prince Alan . "Nothing important . We just met my little brother on the way here . "


"Oh? Prince Bryan?"

"No, it was Claus . " Alan said indifferently, but his words carried a slight trace of disdain . "He came to play in the new attraction with my little sister . "

Alice's eyes flashed . Many thoughts passed through her mind in an instant, showing her thousand of different results .



"Prince Claus huh . I met him before . " She finally said .

"Oh?" Earl Carlson showed an expression of interest . "What do you think about him, miss Alice?"

Alice was waiting for that question . "Very handsome and mysterious . Actually, I would like to meet him again . " She smiled innocently and spoke with a slight blush on her face . Her expression was the perfect image of a girl in love talking about her crush .

An awkward silence fell into the room . Prince Alan and young master Albert furrowed their brows in displeasure . Earl Carson, on the other hand, seemed to be thinking about something .

"… Thinking about it, he truly was an interesting young man . " Mia, who had not spoken from the start, suddenly opened her mouth . "Even although I talked to him only for a few minutes, I got the feeling that he is not simple . "

Earl Carson looked at his wife in doubt . "Why do you think so?"

"… I don't know, just a feeling . Right, he asked me to thank you for the gift you sent him . "

"Gift? What gift?" The Earl wrinkled his brows .

"I don't know . He did not explain . "

The Earl put on a thoughtful expression . Claus's words seemed to indicate something, but no matter how long he thought, he could not discern anything .

Prince Alan, seeing Alice's interested gaze and his uncle's serious expression, could not help but interject .

"You are overestimating him too much . Actually, simply by the fact that he chooses this kind of time to go around playing with my sister means that he doesn't have a good future . Anyone else, after learning that he will be exiled in five years, would be trying to find a way to avoid the exile . But that little brother of mine is still coming to see the newest attraction of hidden cave . Or he is very confident in his abilities, or he is a fool . " A smile of derision appeared on Alan's face .



Alice's eyes flashed with a cunning light . "The new attraction huh . I heard that it's an array that uses illusions to simulate enemies . "

"That is right . " Young master Albert said with a hint of pride . "It was created by an array master of our family to train our troops .

The illusions are very realistic and attack the people inside the array using many different methods . Although they can't cause any kind of injury, the feeling when you fight them is very real . "

Alice grinned . "… However, I find the attraction a bit dangerous . "

"Oh? Why is it?" Asked Albert .

"You see… An assassin can use the illusions as cover to kill his target and then escape without anyone noticing anything . "

"Huh? Now that you say it, maybe it's possible . I guess I have to tell my family about it . " Albert smiled at Alice, but it was obvious that he did not take her words seriously .

However, someone else did .

Without anyone noticing, the servant behind the prince left for an instant before returning .

Seeing that, Alice smiled mischievously, but her smile disappeared in the next instant .

She then looked at the prince and the earl and opened her lips .

"Earl, prince, I think it's time for you to tell us why did you invite us here?"



Prince Alan looked at the earl . Once seeing him nod, the prince took a deep breath .

"… As you know, I was chosen as the crown prince a few days ago, so it's necessary for me to forge ties with the different noble families . Think of this meal as an opportunity to talk about future cooperation between your family and the empire . "

"Mmm… However prince, I think you are not qualified to talk about cooperating with my family . "

Prince Alan froze . He looked at Alice and narrowed his eyes sharply . "… Care to explain the reason?"

"After all, the emperor is still alive and young . " Alice stared right into prince Alan's eyes and smiled bewitchingly . "With the emperor's age, he can live easily another 40 years . "

Looking at Alan, the earl, and young master Albert, Alice chuckled gently .

"… And if the emperor does not die, nobody else can become emperor . "

Strangely, nobody found anything wrong with her words .
