I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 204, Sections 1.15 and 2: Royal Wars
"Moya really has a big mouth, her voice is too loud." Koya sighed helplessly as she watched Moya shout at her and then frantically run away being chased by a group of guards.

She slowly stood up, supporting herself against the wall. She frowned, looking at her slightly swollen ankle; she had twisted it.

"Hiss~" Koya winced. The sprain was really too painful, to the point that she almost wanted to use the Easter egg to treat the wound. However, since it could only be used once, and she only had one left, she knew she had to save it for a crucial moment.

"I wonder if she'll be alright..." Koya leaned against the wall, looking worriedly to the other side, then said with relief, "With Moya's quick wit, she's probably fine. It's me who's in more danger."

"Why did I have to twist my ankle now of all times?" Ke Ya frowned as she looked at her swollen ankle, but in the end, she took out an Easter egg and ate it.

If a group of guards had come at this time while her foot was injured, she would have been left to die. It's definitely better to eat it now; we can deal with it later.

"Feilu, could you repeat the contents of the dungeon again?"

【I see. 】

This instance is 'A Royal Feast of Extravagance'.

[Task 1: Obtain the largest gem from the Queen's crown]

[Task Two: Find the rarest recipes and create them to present to the Queen]

[Task 3: Gain the Queen's Trust]

[Mission Four: Successfully escape the castle after the feast ends]

[Instance Level: Crown Prince (Special)]

[Now, let's announce the rules of the game.]

[I. The Queen's most beloved daughter was the Eighth Princess.]

[II. Players have the right to freely explore the instance.]

[III. Players who prevent the feast from proceeding.]

[IV. The instance's barrier is the entire royal castle; one cannot leave before the feast ends.]

[5. Complete all tasks. Failure to complete any task constitutes a failed dungeon run, and the player will be immediately eliminated, disregarding the supreme rules.]

[VI. Affection levels will be displayed to players in real-time as numerical values.]

[Synopsis: The Queen's birthday banquet is about to begin, and guests from five other kingdoms will be invited. However, the royal family has a shameful history that is being gradually revealed, and your task is to drag the royal family completely into the abyss.]

Ke Ya frowned slightly, feeling that the rules were different from before. Had she remembered them wrong?

Or has the rule actually changed?

To gain the Queen's trust, and because the Queen's most beloved daughter was the Eighth Princess, the first step was to gain the Eighth Princess's trust.

Where is the Eighth Princess?
Koya walked down the red carpeted corridor, frowning as she looked around. There was no one in sight, not even a maid. It didn't seem so deserted just now.

"Your Highness, this way please." The head maid's voice came from beside her, and Koya leaned out from around the corner.

Before my eyes stood a girl with long, wavy, misty gray hair standing next to the head maid, her face expressionless as she spoke to the head maid, who smiled awkwardly and remained polite.

This guy is...

Mu Ye Gui.

I'm probably not mistaken... because Mu Yin doesn't have that quiet demeanor; he gives off a very high-profile and unapproachable vibe. Even though he jokes around casually, you always feel like he might turn on you at any moment.

I guess just looking at this person makes me feel like he's not easy to approach...

Suddenly, Mu Yegui turned his head slightly to look at the area where she was. His cold silver eyes were deep and calm, as still as an ancient pool.

Koya leaned back against the wall, one hand on her rapidly beating heart.

She was discovered.

But is it okay?
Is Mu Yegui also doing dungeon quests?

"Could you say it again?" Mu Yegui withdrew her gaze, stared steadily at the head maid, and said calmly in a soft, sweet voice.

The head maid was somewhat embarrassed, but still maintained her smile, and said, "The Queen summons you. Does Prince Nightmare have time?"

Mu Yegui looked down at her slender, fair fingers and said softly, "I don't have time." She just wanted to find out about the history related to Fish and had no intention of meeting any queen.

These people are so annoying.

"But you should see the master when you come to the castle, otherwise it's against the rules," the head maid said, somewhat anxiously but still patiently.

"I don't want to see you." Mu Yegui remained unmoved.

There are no so-called lords here, so the royal family holds the greatest power in the Fairy Tale Kingdom. However, this arrangement is ultimately somewhat incongruous; after the lustful lord's administrator took office, the royal family's influence almost completely vanished. That's why this grand feast was held, hoping to salvage the royal family's reputation in other kingdoms.

Just as the two were at an impasse, a handsome young man walked over from afar, holding a document in his hand, and waved to Mu Yegui with a light smile, saying, "Ah? Your Highness Nightmare, you've come at the right time. I have something to discuss with you."

"CEO!" the head maid exclaimed anxiously.

The young man smiled at Mu Yegui, then looked coldly at the head maid, causing her to take two steps back. He suddenly laughed again, placing his slender, white finger on his thin, sensual lips in a 'shushing' gesture.

"Connie, you can't disobey me~" The tone was gentle, but it sent a chill down one's spine.

The head maid nodded stiffly, and could only watch Mu Yegui and the young man leave.

"Who are you?" Mu Yegui asked as he followed the young man.

The young man held the document in his hands, glanced at it briefly, and then chuckled as he said to Mu Yegui, "Sorry I haven't introduced myself yet. I am Tang Xiuna, and I currently manage the Fairy Tale Kingdom as the administrator in place of the Lustful Lord. However, since the castle is the administrative center of the capital, and the council chambers and such are all located here, I can only reside in the castle for the time being."

Tang Xiuna had beautiful, slightly long, layered, dark purple hair that reached his shoulders. However, he didn't seem to care much about it, simply tying it loosely behind his head with a purple ribbon. He maintained a faint smile throughout, as if he would never get angry, giving off a gentle feeling.

I guess so……

Is this person really gentle?
She had heard the name Tang Xiuna before, after Fernana got drunk and she managed to get it out of her.

Shouldn't this person already be dead?

Why is she living in this world as Adele's administrator? Has she been completely assimilated by this world?
"Do you know Fernana?" Mu Yegui asked.

Tang Xiuna paused slightly, his hands tightening around the documents, his fingertips turning slightly white. His expression remained unchanged as he turned to Mu Yegui with a light smile and slowly said, "No, I don't know her."

The representatives from all three parties have arrived.

Moya's side, the royal family's side (Keya), and Tangshuna's side (Muyegui).
