Chapter 189: 188 “That’s not the case…” Chapter 189: 188 “That’s not the case…” It must be said that these days, Shane’s na had constantly been on the ears of Beren and others, never resting for a mont.
Although Shane’s affairs were currently only circulating among the nobles and knights, those fellows, in order to gather information related to Shane, either commissioned investigation or ca to inquire personally. Naturally, they found Beren, Alis, and Leon, hoping to learn so information about Shane from their colleagues.
Especially Beren, because of his status as a noble, didn’t know how many higher-status nobles had personally invited him over, either indirectly probing or directly asking, intending to pry information about Shane from Beren’s mouth.
Under such circumstances, the information about Shane beca sowhat known to those young nobles.
Otherwise, how would they even know about the Unique Skill that Shane fabricated?
All was inquired from Beren and others.
Beren and his group, encountering such situations repeatedly, naturally beca suspicious. Finally, after an exchange, the good deeds Shane had done in the Royal Capital were instantly exposed.
Even Vivian had already gotten to know about Shane’s private interaction with Luoqi, and afterward, more than once, she asked him in amazent how it had turned out like this. Thus, it was evident that Shane and Luoqi’s affair had attracted a lot of attention.
At this rate, perhaps one day, even the common people might co to know about this matter.
This gave Shane so headaches, but made Beren, Leon, and Alis very envious and jealous.
In their eyes, they truly found Luoqi and Lusi breathtaking after eting them, and like many others, were instantly subdued by the Princess.
Even Shane initially couldn’t help but stare at Luoqi for so long, and Lu Muya and rica, being the sa sex, began to adore and idolize Luoqi ever since. How much more so for these sons who had been single for so long?
No, that’s not right. Among these three, it seed that only Alis had been single since birth, not to ntion marriage, he hadn’t even had a lover, whereas Beren was already twenty-eight, had long married and had children, and even had a concubine, a true winner in life, let alone Leon, who lived almost building a skyscraper with soft als.
Yet, it was just like that, they were completely dumbfounded, dazed, and then fallen when they first t Luoqi.
How could they not be envious and jealous of Shane?
Alis was still okay, at least he wouldn’t daydream, but Beren and Leon were different.
These two, one a local noble aspiring to climb higher, and the other a gigolo who made a fortune through won, Luoqi with her conditions that were peerless in appearance, strength, and status, could not but stir the hearts of these two frogs… no, two n.
Thus, even at this mont, Beren’s gaze upon Shane beca sowhat complicated, not to ntion Leon, who almost really began treating Shane as an enemy.
Beren had completely not anticipated that this previously thought lucky rookie adventurer, who had just t Laischa and suppressed Killian, had turned into a significant figure in the Royal Capital in less than half a month.
Leon had even less expected that this devil would ultimately win the favor of the Princess, using his re adventurer status to directly climb such an exceptionally high branch.
“I wish it were …!”
Leon did harbor such thoughts.
However, just thinking about Shane’s astonishing strength made Leon lose heart.
Even if he wanted to climb the princess’s high branch, he needed to be qualified.
In Lamijion, with Leon’s tricks, he could still deceive those won who hadn’t seen much of the world or were just greedy for his looks, but here in the Royal Capital, capitalizing on Udilis’s connections, Leon had visited many households in recent days, yet his previously unerring tactics only earned him a snub.
The reason was simple; this place wasn’t isolated like Lamijion, where those with real status were abundant. Naturally, they all tended to choose marriages among themselves, how could they not protect their delicate flowers well?
Moreover, the Royal Capital was reputed as the center of the world, where all the outstanding figures from around the world would appear, including those with high attractiveness, formidable strength, and impeccable families. How could Leon, who relied solely on his looks, compete against them?
In Lamijion, those with strength weren’t necessarily handso, those with family backgrounds weren’t necessarily handso either, and those who were handso, whether they had strength or family background or not, weren’t necessarily good at wooing won.
Therefore, Leon, with his good looks and tricks, could thrive.
But in the Royal Capital, outstanding talent was in abundance, with countless people better than Leon, leaving no room for him to play any tricks.
Given this, Leon had no achievents in recent days and even Udilis began to distance herself from him upon seeing the many excellent figures in the Royal Capital.
For soone like him, trying to woo the peerless Princess would probably an not even being able to enter the gates of the Royal Palace; he might even end up being thrown into the lake to feed the fish.
Knowing this harsh reality, Leon had only one mood now.
To use a phrase from his previous life, it was…
“The city’s ways are deep; I want to return to the countryside.”
That was precisely the case.
Thus, Leon already wanted to return to Lamijion and had adjusted his goals.
As long as he could beco a small Noble’s son-in-law in Lamijion, Leon would be satisfied.
Of course, comparing his own treatnt with that of Shane’s, Leon still couldn’t help feeling envious.
Even so, he didn’t dare to offend Shane.
After all, it was said that Shane now had the Royal Family’s token, essentially acting as the Royal Family’s agent.
Offend him?
He might as well forget about living off won for the rest of his life and start relying on n instead.
Yes, living off won is soft living, and living off n is hard living, no problem there.
Shane had no idea these guys were thinking so much, he simply said very humbly,
“That’s not the case, don’t listen to others talking nonsense. That’s the Princess, soone I can’t afford to aspire to.”
Shane tried to clear the air.
Hearing this, Beren, Leon, and Alis looked sowhat better.
At this mont, outside the reception room, a Female Knight entered.
“Is Mr. Shane here? Princess Luoqi and Lusti would like you to co over!”
She brought such a ssage.
“…”
“…”
“…”
Everyone looked at each other in silence.
Then, Beren, Leon, and Alis all looked at Shane.
Their gazes were as if they were looking at a dog.
