"This really is …"
Thinking back to his current situation, Chen Heng inwardly shook his head, feeling quite complicated.
Back then, Chen Heng had suggested summoning the ruler at regular intervals so that the ruler would not be able to travel all the time.
Over the years, Olivia had used this method very well, and the results had been quite effective.
Because they had been traveling for a long time, many rulers' territories had rebelled, and because no ruler had given the order to suppress them, there had been massive losses.
There were even a few pitiful lords who met with all sorts of accidents and were killed by bandits on the way because they were in a hurry to get there.
Over the past few years, it was not as if Chen Heng had not heard of these things.
However, because he was Olivia's relative and her follower, he had not been on Olivia's list of people that she had summoned to meet.
He had never thought that he would fall for it this time.
Thinking to there, he could not help but shake his head.
In his heart, he knew that the reason for this was most likely because of the letter from before.
Perhaps to Olivia, Chen Heng's letter from before was not a warning but a rejection of her authority.
Was this a warning?
Chen Heng did not know.
He had no way of knowing Olivia's true thoughts, and he could not be bothered to guess.
After hearing about this, he quickly went to Krudo.
"While I'm gone, I'll leave this place to you."
Chen Heng said softly as he looked at Krudo.
"Don't worry."
Krudo's expression was resolute as he nodded, "With me here, there won't be any problems."
Looking at him, Chen Heng smiled and nodded.
He was very confident in Krudo's abilities.
Over the past five years, Krudo had successfully awakened his Life Seed and was now a true Knight.
However, out of consideration, Chen Heng did not spread this news, so only a few people knew about this.
Most people only saw Krudo as a powerful Knight Apprentice.
After Krudo left, Chen Heng gathered some more people and made some arrangements.
Following this, he prepared to leave and head towards the Kutu Royal City.
.....
"Kaelin, is he already here?"
Olivia sat within a luxurious and spacious palace, feeling quite bored as she asked a male servant below her.
On both sides of her, there were two handsome young men serving her. Their expressions were especially respectful.
After five years, Olivia had changed quite a bit.
Her appearance was still beautiful, but now, it was inevitable that she would start to age. Although she used many expensive tonics and still looked young, it could not be compared to before.
However, her figure was still the same. Although it was a little round and swollen, it still looked good and was still maintained.
"Count Narda has already arrived and is currently staying."
In front of him, the male servant lowered his head and said, "Does Your Majesty want to summon him?"
Olivia hesitated for a moment before shaking her head. "No need."
"Let's call him over after we've taken care of the banquet for a few days."
She shook her head and said.
Recalling the tall and sturdy knight in her memory, she felt a little complicated.
"Forget it, we'll see each other in a few days …"
In the end, she shook her head as this thought flashed through her mind.
A few days later, the banquet officially began.
Within a luxurious palace, nobles sat down, but most of them looked quite tired.
It seemed that they had used up a lot of energy over the long journey.
Chen Heng was among them.
As Count Narda and the number one Knight of the Kutu Principality, his position was incredibly prestigious, and he sat at the center.
After a while, after the nobles had arrived, Olivia finally appeared.
She entered the palace and immediately saw Chen Heng.
After five years, many people had changed, and Chen Heng was the same.
Compared to before, his appearance had not changed much, and he was still as handsome and exquisite as before.
However, compared to before, his gaze was incredibly sharp, like a sharp sword that could not be ignored.
He silently sat there, not making a single sound. However, that unique aura and tall and straight figure made him the center of attention, making people feel admiration for him.
Compared to before, his charm did not decrease at all and instead became even stronger.
Looking at Chen Heng, Olivia felt a bit dazed. Only when a servant called out to her did she come back to her senses and continue to smile as she walked to the center.
As everyone watched, she raised the wine cup in her hand and began the banquet.
As the banquet began, female dancers walked around and sat next to the nobles.
From time to time, extravagant sounds could be heard.
One could faintly hear the moans of women and the panting of men.
Chen Heng continued to silently sit in his seat by himself, his expression not changing.
He did not drink or eat excessively; he only ate the right amount of food and patiently waited for the banquet to end.
Outside, gusts of wind blew gently, blowing his loose hair and ruffling his sleeves.
Sitting there by himself, he was like a beautiful scenery that contrasted with his surroundings.
This familiar scene caused Olivia to feel a bit dazed.
As such, she walked up to Chen Heng in front of the surrounding people.
"Kaylin, long time no see."
She smiled as she looked at Chen Heng and made a pose, "Can you dance with me?"
Chen Heng looked at Olivia.
In front of him, Olivia's face was ruddy, and she reeked of alcohol. Her clothes were somewhat disheveled, revealing her decent figure, making it hard for anyone to look at her closely.
"Your Majesty, you're drunk."
Chen Heng's expression was calm as he spoke softly.
Olivia laughed.
She looked at Chen Heng for a long time before saying, "You're not willing?"
Chen Heng's expression was calm and he did not say anything.
Their gazes met, and the atmosphere became quite serious.
The surrounding people sensed the heavy atmosphere and subconsciously retreated from the area.
Of the two people in front of them, one was the kingdom's number one Knight, the ruler of the Sordar region, and the other was the Kutu Royal Family's King, their Majesty.
No matter which one it was, they could not afford to offend either one.
They looked at each other for a long time.
Just as everyone thought that Olivia was going to fly into a rage, she smiled.
"You're still like this."
Looking at Chen Heng, she smiled, feeling both pleased and disappointed.
Standing there, she continued to look at Chen Heng before waving her hand and leaving.
