Chapter 405

"Viscount Borztut has returned to the Imperial City!"

In less than ten minutes, the news had spread throughout the streets and alleys of the Imperial City.

This was because many people had personally witnessed You Lin's return to the Imperial City and the scene of her flying to the center of the Noble District. It was too easy for the news to spread.

After receiving the news, regardless of whether it was intentional or not, everyone rushed toward Borztut's house.

The young masters of the noble families, in particular, seemed to be ready to risk everything as they hurriedly gathered in the direction of Borztut's house.

"Duel!"

"Duel!"

"Duel!"

For a time, this thought became common in the minds of almost all the young masters of the noble families.

Perhaps it was because they were unwilling, angry, or perhaps they wanted to prove that they were not inferior to the rumored viscount, these young masters of the noble families were hot-headed and could do anything.

The people who had gathered in front of Borztut's house were especially excited when they saw Shien's return. Some of them even planned to break the door and barge into Borztut's house.

Unfortunately, they could not even think of taking a step closer.

"Roar —!!!"

In the sky above Borztut's house, right in front of the main entrance, a pitch-black dragon flapped its wings and let out an earth-shattering roar at everyone present.

The angry roar transformed into a powerful gale that blew forward, causing the young masters of the aristocratic families and even the commoners to scream and wail in pain. They either swayed left and right or simply fell to the ground. It was as if they had encountered a Category 12 typhoon. Their faces were filled with fear and anger.

You Lin guarded Borztut's house firmly. Whenever someone tried to approach, she would immediately let out an earth-shattering roar.

Under such circumstances, everyone looked at the terrifying Black Dragon and swallowed their saliva. They were completely stunned on the spot, their faces pale and motionless.

It was obvious that no matter how arrogant they were, they did not think that they had the strength to defeat the famous Black Dragon Adol.

Therefore, no matter if it was the nobles or the commoners, none of them dared to approach Borztut's house.

However, even if they could not approach, they could still make noise.

Therefore, the young masters of the noble families suppressed the fear in their hearts, clenched their teeth, and began to speak one after another.

"We want to see Viscount Borztut!"

"Let Viscount Borztut come out!"

"Viscount Borztut! Come out! "

"If you have the guts to collude … Pfft! If you have the guts to win the favor of Her Highness! Don't you have the guts to come out? "

"Come out and fight me!"

"I must prove to Her Highness that I am more suitable than you are!"

"Come out!"

"Come out!"

Similar curses kept ringing out, causing the entire place to be filled with curses.

This made You! "

A bunch of human ants actually dared to provoke my Lord like this?

You Lin really wanted to take care of all of them with a breath of dragon breath.

However, when Shien asked You Lin to guard the gate, he had instructed her not to hurt anyone here unless someone tried to force their way in.

Therefore, You Lin could only stand at the gate and scare the humans. She spat out a mouthful of Dragon's Breath, which was like flames, as if it was about to burst out of her mouth, causing many to tremble in fear.

If it was any other time, people would have run as far as they could if a dragon gave such a warning.

However, this time, it was not only the reckless commoners, even the young masters of the noble families who usually bullied the weak and feared the strong held back their fear and continued to shout.

It was obvious that these people were not willing to retreat just like that.

People from every corner of the Imperial City gradually gathered here, making the front of Borztut's house extremely crowded.

…

At the same time, Shien had already led the crowd back to the mansion.

"Shien!"

"Mr. Shien!"

Vivian, Tierre, Lumia, and Merica seemed to have received the news of Shien's return. They immediately came out of the mansion and gathered before Shien, looking surprised and overjoyed.

"Big Sister!"

"Big Sister!"

The servants and maids cried tears of joy at the return of La Xia, who had been following behind Shien. They were so excited that Shien almost doubted whether he or La Xia was the master of this place.

Of course, the crowd also noticed the young girls who had returned with Shien.

Needless to say, everyone knew Ai Yi and La Xia.

However, when they saw Lésia and Lilith, they were shocked.

"People who … look exactly like Miss La Xia …?!"

"Could … could it be …?!"

Lumia and Merica covered their mouths in shock.

"They …?"

Tierre also looked at Lésia and Lilith with a frown.

Vivian was also surprised when she saw Lésia, and her expression was solemn. She had probably guessed Lésia's identity.

Back at the outskirts of Lamigion, everyone in Vivian's team had seen La Xia and knew who La Xia was related to. Now that they saw Lésia, who looked exactly like Lésia, they naturally recognized her at once.

However, when Vivian saw Lilith, her eyes trembled all of a sudden, and she stared at her without shifting her gaze.

Lilith's gaze also swept across everyone present, and finally stopped on Vivian. For some reason, she no longer shifted her gaze.

On the other hand, Lai Xia was the one who smiled at everyone generously.

"Nice to meet you all."

Lésia said with a smile.

Previously, at the outskirts of Lamigion, Lésia only wanted to see Shien and not Shien's team. Hence, she forcibly moved Vivian and the others away.

Thanks to this, this was indeed the first time Lésia appeared in front of Vivian and the others face to face. Previously, she had only found out about their existence when she was secretly observing Shien.

This was the first time Lésia, Vivian, and the others met each other in the truest sense.

Vivian and the others looked at each other, not knowing how to react.

If it were any other time, Shien would have thought of a way to solve this problem.

But now, Shien just wanted to understand the situation.

"What the hell is going on?" Sean hurriedly asked Vivian and the others, "I only left for a few days. Why is everyone treating me as an enemy who killed their father as soon as I came back?"

Sean's bewildered words caused the strange atmosphere on the scene to ease up a little.

Vivian and the rest returned to normal. They looked at Sean, who had a blank look on his face, and could not help but laugh.

"If you had come back a few days later, they might really have treated you as their father's killer."

Vivian teased.

"In fact, in the eyes of those nobles, you are even more detestable than their father's killer, right?"

Tierre couldn't help but exclaim.

"How did I offend them?" Shien said as if he was wronged. "How big of a deal is it? Is it necessary? "

Is it necessary?

Yes, it is!

Vivian and the others looked at Shien with a strange look.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Sean felt a little guilty from being stared at. He could only put up a brave front and said, "I didn't do anything to offend so many people."

Well, no matter what, I'll deny it first.

Although Sean himself did not know if he had done anything that would offend the people of the entire kingdom, he did not know what he had done.

Vivian and the others, who did not know what Shien was thinking, could only laugh at each other.

"I say, Shien," Vivian patted Shien's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, this is a good thing."

"A good thing?" Shien could not help but be stunned.

"It is indeed a good thing." Tierre's tone was indifferent as if she did not have any thoughts. "At least, it is for you."

"For me?" Shien frowned.

Lucia and Merica's expressions were different from Vivian and Tierre's. One had a faint look of admiration, while the other seemed to feel wronged. This confused Shien.

In this regard, Ai Yi, who had been silent all this while, felt a little impatient for some reason.

"Since it's a good thing, I don't need to be here anymore. I'll go back to my room and sleep."

Ai Yi turned and left as if she was in a bad mood.

"Miss Lilith, let's go take a look at the room first."

La Xia came back. She seemed to have left at some point earlier to quietly gather first-hand information from the surrounding servants and maids. Now that she seemed to know the whole story, she took the equally confused Lilith away.

"It seems interesting, but it shouldn't have anything to do with me. I'll let La Xia take me to choose a room."

Laxia did not seem to care at all, or rather, she was happy to see Sean running around in circles anxiously as she left with a smile.

"Wait …"

Shien wanted to ask them to stay, but after careful consideration, he decided to settle the matter here first.

Seeing this, Vivian and the others did not keep him in suspense.

"Actually, not long ago, the kingdom sent out a message to the entire human world, claiming that they were going to choose a husband for Princess Rosie."

Tierre bluntly threw out the truth.

"What did you say?"

The sudden news stunned Shien.

Choose a husband?

Rosie was going to choose a husband?

Why?

Shien was confused.

What confused him even more was the words that came after.

"It's all true, Mr. Shien."

Lumia seemed to be worried that Shien would not believe her, so she hurriedly said.

"We … We were also shocked when we found out …"

Melica's tone became more and more aggrieved, like a child whose favorite toy had been snatched away. She was full of dejection.

"Then … then why are they so hostile to me?"

Shien began to have an ominous premonition.

As expected …

"Because the kingdom has announced that you, Viscount Shien Porztut, are the first priority candidate for Princess Rosie's husband."

Vivian's words made the corner of Shien's mouth twitch.

There was only one sentence left in his mind.

"Damn it …"
