The Forbidden Magic Laws of a Fallen Princess

"Okay, that's enough for today. I'll carry you!"

As I spoke, I stepped forward and helped Lila up with my hand.

Just then, a refreshing fragrance wafted over.

Sigh, this child truly is a wonderful baby, a thousand times better than those stinky men.

"Today's training went very well. I didn't expect that I wouldn't hit you even once with my fireball. You've really improved a lot."

As soon as I put one of her arms on my shoulder, I quickly praised her.

"Really... You should have at least told me... at least let me be mentally prepared."

The compliment I just received did make me feel that Lila was somewhat happy, but she still seemed a little unhappy.

"Actually, in a duel, your opponent doesn't care whether you know it or not. They might attack you right away. This time, I was training your reaction and dodging abilities, so this was great. Maybe you can even surpass Elena's talent."

Yeah, right... You're way behind Elena, there's no way you can ever surpass her in this lifetime.

"Really! That's great! I'll definitely try to get second place in the academy competition and show off my skills."

"Ha, um..."

Unexpectedly, she actually took it seriously, which shows how arrogant this guy is. He really thinks he's on top of the world after just a few compliments.

Left with no other choice, I took Lila back to my room and had Lilith heal her wounds. With so little time left in the afternoon, I naturally went out to fulfill her request and we started shopping and having fun.

However, at that moment, I always felt like there was a pair of eyes watching us.

Chapter Sixty-Seven: Rutes's Stalking and Provocation

Sure enough, just as the chairman had said, two weeks later, a large sum of money was delivered directly to my home by a teacher from the college.

And this huge sum of money isn't just a little bit; it's an enormous amount.

Looking at this bag of gleaming gold coins, I couldn't help but get excited $_$.

Since I have so much money, what else do I need to worry about?

Because the area behind my current home is a forest, and unlike my real world where you are limited to a certain area and any extra space is considered illegal construction, I can extend it as much as I want.

Therefore, there's no time like the present, so let Louise find someone to build a training ground, a swimming pool, a storeroom, expand the stables, and replace and repair the room fences today.

Anyway, there aren't too many things to do.

I've also heard that there's this much money every month, which means I could live a carefree life at the college for six years on that money.

I never imagined that a fallen princess would receive such wonderful treatment. I am so lucky.

However, the day after I received the money, I truly felt that this figure was indeed around me, and it didn't seem to be particularly far away.

"Stop hiding there, come out now."

Although I don't know who he is or where he is, I am certain that he is within five meters of me.

Since we're trying to prevent this "assassin" from launching a sneak attack, we should at least call him out and let him show himself.

Then, a series of clapping sounds were heard, and a familiar figure slowly walked out from behind the tree.

"As expected of Ivy, you are indeed very perceptive. I didn't expect you to detect my presence even though I was hiding it."

"Lutes?!"

I couldn't help but widen my eyes, feeling utterly incredulous.

Ha, I didn't expect that you would come looking for me when I didn't even look for you.

"Yes, it's me."

"Oh."

However, I have absolutely no interest in men, so I responded with a hint of helplessness and emotion on my face.

"My dear Ivy, do you know why I've been following you?"

"Ha, why?"

Ha, who cares why you keep following me? Anyway, if you don't come out, I might find a chance to burn down this whole forest and leave you with no trace of your body.

However, even though that's what I said, the other party is also a nobleman in red robes, so I can't just make a move directly.

Actually, calling him out proves that I've been the most tolerant I could be.

If he doesn't come out, well, don't blame me for turning him into a pile of charred remains.

"Don't you know? I've been observing you for a long time. It was you who stole my father's most beloved magic wand. That ruby ​​is proof enough. In other words, you are my father's killer!"

Instantly, a terrifying killing intent erupted from Lutes' body. Indeed, if his strength hadn't been far inferior to mine, he would have launched a full-scale attack on me.

"Huh? My father's killer? What nonsense are you talking about? I don't know anything about that."

I was completely dumbfounded. Wasn't his father imprisoned by my father and awaiting the King of Allen's judgment? But surely that shouldn't have been enough to lead to his death?

"Ha, you're quite the actor, aren't you? You're actually pretending to be innocent."

"I...I really didn't. Please explain what happened clearly, because I genuinely don't know what happened?"

I really don't know what happened, and I don't want to take the blame for this.

Besides, I obtained this beautiful magic wand through my own cleverness, so there can't be anything wrong with that, right?

"Looks like you're really not one to shed a tear even when you're facing death. Alright then, in that case, I'll explain it to you in detail..."

It turns out that I really didn't know what I heard from Lutes afterward.

King Allen was furious ever since Otto complained to the king about Lutes' father, the pig-headed baron.

However, the pig-headed baron's family had once been kind to the kingdom, so to distinguish between gratitude and resentment, his family was not implicated. Instead, he was exiled to a magic stone mining area on the northern border, where he could return to the royal city after ten years.

But only six years later, Kloster was reduced to ruins overnight, and of course, no one in the entire quarry survived. That's why she harbored such deep resentment towards me and my family.

"If I'm not mistaken, Ivy, you are Princess of Kloster, aren't you?"

It seems that this Lutes is exceptionally clever.

Although I have said that I am a princess of the border royal city, I have never mentioned whether I am a princess of the northern, southern, western, or eastern border.

However, he discovered his father's magic wand with just his own eyes, thus confirming my identity. This guy is indeed not simple.

"So what if I am? How can you prove that I am the one who framed your father?"

"Hehehe, Ivy, the news that my father was falsely accused of trying to rape the princess of Kloster City has spread. I heard that you are the only daughter in Kloster City. However, my father is only interested in adult women. How could he possibly be interested in a little brat like you with no breasts or butt? So, unless he was falsely accused by you, how could my father have stooped to such a level?!"

As he spoke, he pointed a finger directly at me...

And they were absolutely right about the things I had falsely accused.

Yes, he was indeed framed by me...

"However, Ivy, I can't beat you. You're the one who even seriously injured the monster Peach Demon King teacher. Even sixth-grade students don't seem to dare to challenge you. So, I'll give you this staff, which is my father's heirloom. But..."

"But what..."

At that moment, I felt a sense of foreboding.

"I heard you seem to want to stick to your Lila classmate to steal my position as the red-clad noblewoman, right?"

Instantly, a wicked and sinister smile appeared on his face.

"So what if it is...?"

However, since he knows all this, it proves that he is also 90% confident that he can beat Lila.

"Heh, when the time comes, I'll torture her properly, torture her in front of you, make her suffer all kinds of humiliation, because I knew back in the private school that she's the kind of person who won't give up until the very last breath, so it'll be just the right time for you to taste the pain of losing a good friend, hahahahahahaha!"

With that, he flicked his black mage robe and prepared to leave.

"and many more……"

How could I possibly let you hurt my lovely harem member, Lila? You're dreaming! I could easily cripple you right now, and then we'll see how arrogant you are.

However, just as I quickly took a few steps forward, he unexpectedly raised his magic wand.

"Great water spirit, heed my call, and in my name, condense into countless powerful crystals, Xuan Tian Ice Spikes!"

In an instant, he finished chanting the spell, and about a dozen enormous ones appeared directly above his head, then shot directly towards the ground beneath my feet.

Chapter Sixty-Eight: A Difficult Plan Was Needed to Be Made by Lila to Defeat Lutes

"This is... a mid-level spell."

Lutes' sudden use of a mid-level spell, which consisted of about a dozen giant ice spikes, pierced the ground in front of me, which did startle me.

I was really careless this time. I originally thought that this guy, like Lila, could only use low-level magic, so I planned to give Lila special training so that she could challenge Lutes.

Unexpectedly, he actually knew how to cast intermediate-level magic, and judging from its power and intensity, it didn't seem like he had just mastered it; on the contrary, he was already proficient in casting this ultimate move.

Goodness, I never expected that this Lutes was such a cunning man, hiding his true intentions so well.

Even I was fooled, how awful! (〃＞皿＜)

"Now you know how powerful I am, huh? You still want Lila, who doesn't even know intermediate-level magic, to challenge me? You're really overestimating yourself."

At this moment, he turned his head away, and the smile on his face became even more terrifying.
