The noisy day finally came to an end amidst all kinds of disturbances.
On the second day, although Shien's return was still a hot topic, it was not as sensational as yesterday.
After some people calmed down, they also began to pay attention to some practical topics.
For example …
"Since Hero Shien is back, how is he going to deal with the engagement with Her Highness Rosie?"
"Is he going to break off the engagement? Or is he going to let Her Highness Rosie be his concubine? "
"Will the royal family agree? Will we agree? "
"In any case, I will never agree!"
Similar conversations began to appear from time to time, and they became more and more intense.
Those who were observant would realize that these topics spread very quickly. It was as if someone was deliberately spreading rumors in the dark, preparing to control public opinion, gradually pushing Sean into the teeth of the storm.
However, it was undeniable that many people were indeed waiting for news from the royal family to see how they would deal with the Hero.
Of course, the Hero's attitude was also very important.
Although he was a noble of the kingdom, people with discerning eyes could understand that with his identity and uniqueness, the identity of a noble of the kingdom was just child's play to him.
It was fine if he was willing to admit it, but if he messed up the relationship, it was believed that he would not be too reluctant to leave.
If that happened, the appearance of the Hero in the kingdom would no longer be the kingdom's glory, but the kingdom's humiliation.
Would the kingdom and the royal family compromise because of the power behind Shien, so as to continue to rope in this Hero who had only risen for less than half a year and did not have much sense of belonging to the kingdom?
Many people began to express their concern about this.
Of course, this did not have much impact on the upcoming meeting between the three races.
On this day, the Royal Capital was still welcoming the big shots from all over the world, creating a lively scene of endless streams of people and carriages.
These important figures from all over the world were received by special nobles. Some stayed in the nobles' homes, some stayed in high-class hotels prepared by the kingdom, and some stayed in the royal palace. It could be said that everything was available.
Today, even important figures from the Orc Race, Dwarf Race, and other foreign races began to appear.
It was believed that the closer it was to the meeting between the three races, the livelier the royal capital would be until the important figures from the Realm of Gods and Realm of Demons arrived.
At that time, the Royal City could be said to be extremely lively.
Under such circumstances, Borztutt's house, which had welcomed Shien back, was undoubtedly the place that attracted the most attention.
Therefore, there were still many people who came to visit, hoping to visit Shien and the Hero, creating a bustling scene at the entrance of Borztutt's house.
However, this time around, these people would not act as rashly as they did yesterday when they returned from their visit.
After all, there was a Dark Dragon lying on the ground and taking a nap at the entrance of Porztut's house. The Dragon's Might that it emitted made the horses' legs tremble. The horses did not dare to approach the Dark Dragon. Naturally, the influential figures of the various sects were also trembling in fear. They could only wait obediently, hoping that they would have the chance to see Sean.
Therefore, they did not know that Sean had gotten up early in the morning and was not at home.
Because of this, they did not know that Shien had woken up early in the morning and was not at home.
Sean did not even use the royal token that Rosie had given him to announce at the door and let people in. Instead, he directly teleported into the palace. It was silent, fast, and convenient. He was extremely comfortable.
Naturally, his destination was also Rosie's palace.
"Lord Shien!"
"Lord Shien!"
As soon as they entered the door, a group of female knights from the Sword Saint Regiment knelt down on one knee in front of Sean solemnly. Sean was a little surprised by their heavy etiquette.
"Why are they suddenly so respectful today?"
Shien scratched his head in confusion. He could only nod and walk into the palace.
However, before he could walk far, Shien heard whispers.
"Is Count Borztutt here to see His Highness again?"
"Was it not enough after torturing His Highness for so long yesterday?"
"How … How powerful …"
"I thought that even the Hero would have to rest at home today."
"Shh, don't speak so loudly."
Hearing such whispers, Sean's face couldn't help but turn black.
Needless to say, Shien was in a bad mood.
"What kind of nonsense are these female knights spouting on the outside?"
Shien walked along the corridor with a dark expression until he reached Rosie's room.
"My Lord!"
The four female Knights who were above level 70 knelt down on one knee respectfully when they saw Shien.
But now, not only did Shien not feel happy, he even felt as if his privacy was being peeped on.
He had a feeling that these female Knights were not respecting him as a hero, but as an LSP …
Hmm … It should be an illusion, right?
Shien chose to escape from reality, ignoring the female Knights who were looking at him strangely. He pushed open the door and walked into Rosie's room.
Once he entered, Shien realized that someone had already arrived at Rosie's room before him.
"Should I say 'Welcome back'? Sir Hero? "
Leah sat in the room, facing the door. She looked at Shien with an expression as bitter as her tone.
Behind Leah, Shana followed her as usual. She looked at Shien with a complicated gaze, as well as a hint of respect that was not there before.
Rosie, on the other hand, was sitting opposite Lia and drinking tea with her.
However, at this moment, the princess's eyes were a cold gold, and the aura she exuded was mysterious and holy.
Shien knew at a glance that this drama queen was putting on an act again!
In the past, she was pretending to be a flawless princess. Now that her [Blessing and Prayer] had formed the Authority of Fate, she was pretending to be a cold and mysterious goddess?
She really knew how to have fun …
Instead of exposing Rosie, Shien looked at Leah who had a bitter look on her face and smiled.
"Looking at you, you don't seem to welcome me back, my First Princess."
Shien's teasing did not improve Leah's mood.
On the contrary, Leah laughed coldly.
"If it was the previous Count Portobello who had returned with the identity of a hero, Leah would naturally welcome him. Unfortunately, Count Portobello did not only bring back the identity of a hero, but also a marriage contract that was executed first and reported later."
Lia's words had a hint of sarcasm to them.
Shien knew that this girl was feeling indignant for her sister, so he rubbed his nose and spread his hands.
"If I said that I was executed first and reported later, would Your Highness believe me?"
Shien's words were met with Leah's snort of disdain.
Using the words of his past life, that look would be: "As if I would believe you."
"I think so too."
Shien knew that this would be the result.
One of the top Demons, the Dragon Demon Ai Yi who had killed two heroes and was known as one of the most ferocious demons, actually executed first and reported later. In order to marry herself off, she did not even care about the opinion of her fiancee and directly set the marriage contract?
Who would believe this?
Heroes were indeed impressive, but not to the extent that the Demons would not hesitate to marry off their own demons to win them over.
As for quelling the commotion caused by the revival of the hero, it was even more unnecessary.
To be honest, if not for the consideration of Shien's uniqueness and the fact that Ai Yi did not object to this matter, and her relationship with Shien was already obvious, Sylar would definitely not use this method to quell the chaos between the three races.
In order to quell the commotion, marrying the daughter of the Demon King to a human hero sounded very fake, didn't it?
Therefore, Shien knew that no one would believe him even if he spoke the truth.
At that moment, Shien decided to just say it like that.
"You may not believe it, but my fiancee is a girl who hates marriage. Don't be fooled by people calling her Your Highness all day long, she actually wants to get married more than anyone else."
Shien said this with an extremely serious expression.
"…"
Rosie almost could not maintain her newly erected cold and aloof persona.
I feel that you are implying something, and there is evidence.
Leah naturally did not think that Shien was talking about her sister, but thought that Shien was talking about Ai Yi.
However, when she heard this, Leah wanted to laugh.
"You mean, the great Dragon Demon is actually a girl who hates marriage?" Leah was so angry that she almost laughed. "Do you think I will believe such an absurd statement?"
To this, Shien's answer was very simple.
"It's up to you whether you believe it or not." Shien rolled his eyes and said snappily: "Anyway, that's how it is, you guys can do whatever you want."
"You …" Leah did not expect Shien to be so unafraid of boiling water, and immediately became flustered.
"Alright, Sister Leah." Rosie just happened to stop him everywhere. It was unknown if she was trying to stop Shien from continuing to implicate herself, or if she was speaking up for Shien. She said indifferently: "We have already discussed this matter, you don't have to worry about it."
"Hmph!" Leah coldly snorted, turned her head away, and did not speak anymore.
Obviously, this princess still knew her limits. It was fine to say a few sarcastic words to Shien, but if they really parted on bad terms, then they would be the ones in trouble instead.
Moreover, no matter what, Shien had done her a favor. He had helped her solve a major matter that was related to her life, allowing her to live the life she had today.
Because of this, Leah had once made up her mind to help Shien and Rosie ascend to the peak of this world.
This determination had not changed in the slightest until now.
At that moment, Leah knew when to stop.
Of course, Shien would not take this to heart, and directly sat down beside the two princesses.
"I know that you are very concerned about this matter."
Shien expressed very straightforwardly.
"Let's settle this matter today."
Hearing this, Rosie, Leah, and even Shana all turned their heads and looked at Shien.
Shien shrugged and said.
"Let's go and see your father."
