I, the heir of the great Eastern nation

…………

"Generosity and honesty?"

Baron Karl paused for a moment, then nodded.

"As a prince, he not only generously shared that delicious hot sauce with us, but he also personally invited the Knight of York and the family of old Thor, a serf, to dinner beforehand."

"By the God of Light, that was the lowest of serfs! Just because someone saved him, he actually treated a serf as his benefactor. Even those so-called most benevolent and magnanimous sages of light in stories probably couldn't do such a thing!"

Karl couldn't help but sigh deeply.

Meanwhile, Love, standing next to her, wore an excited expression.

"Yes, a foreign prince who fell into poverty due to an accident, a truly kind person with extremely high moral standards, who values ​​loyalty and always repays kindness, was not teleported anywhere else, but instead appeared in our Greenstone Territory!"

"My dear, don't you think this is clearly an opportunity bestowed upon us by the divine light?"

Upon hearing this, Karl was taken aback at first, then his eyes lit up.

"That's right! If His Highness can be so generous to a lowly serf who once helped him, if we can give him even more help now, he certainly won't treat us badly in the future!"

He was so excited that he couldn't help but grab his wife's hand.

"My dear, you're right. This prince's arrival is undoubtedly the most precious opportunity bestowed upon the Robert family by the God of Light!"

"We are determined to seize this rare opportunity!"

……

That night, Liu Zhao, who felt psychologically safe, slept exceptionally well.

When I woke up the next day, it was almost noon.

Then, the first thing he did upon waking up was to go straight to Baron Karl.

Karl was training in the open space at that moment.

"Baron Karl, I need your help."

Liu Zhao looked serious and stated his purpose frankly.

"I want to go to a magic academy to study magic, but I don't have any money. Could you lend me some?"

Baron Karl was completely stunned.

He was shocked!

To be honest, although he had considered that His Highness might have such a need when Liu Zhao asked him to help find books last night.

But to his surprise, Liu Zhao was so blunt!

According to their aristocratic customs, shouldn't the person of higher status be concerned about saving face first, choose to be tactful and beat around the bush, then guess the other party's unspoken meaning, and only then take the initiative to offer their willingness to help, so that the other party can reluctantly accept, and finally gain both face and substance?

But this prince did not do that at all; he actually came up and spoke frankly and took the initiative to speak.

What does this mean?

This means that even as a prince of a country, he is not only willing to trust me, but also doesn't mind owing me a small baron's favor!

He actually thinks so highly of me!

In an instant, Baron Karl, who was only a few years older than Liu Zhao, couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.

"No problem! Your Highness, leave this to me!"

Baron Karl patted his chest vigorously, his face full of excitement.

His decisiveness surprised even Liu Zhao.

"Um, shouldn't we discuss this with the Baroness?"

Baron Karl smiled confidently.

"No need, I've always been the one in charge of this household."

"Your Highness, when would you like to leave? I'll arrange a carriage in advance."

Liu Zhao thought for a moment and then spoke.

"The sooner the better."

Karl was taken aback.

"Your Highness, is there a need for such a rush?"

Liu Zhao nodded.

"Sigh, there's nothing I can do, Baron. I have to be anxious. I feel very insecure when I think about the current situation. My birth can only give me a higher starting point. Whether I can reach the upper limit ultimately depends on my own efforts."

Only by gaining strong capabilities sooner can I build my own career in this foreign land sooner.

Only in this way can I prove to my family that I was the right choice when I return to my hometown in the future!

Liu Zhao stared directly at Baron Karl.

"Do you agree with what I said, Baron?"

Seeing Liu Zhao's serious expression, Baron Karl's expression also became solemn.

"Your Highness is truly insightful! Karl deeply admires your confidence and ambition!"

Seeing the baron's cooperation, Liu Zhao smiled slightly and couldn't help but reach out and gently pat his shoulder.

"In that case, I'll leave this matter to you, Baron."

Baron Karl's heart skipped a beat. He placed one hand on his chest, smiled, and bowed slightly to Liu Zhao.

"It is my honor, Your Highness."

The two were of similar height. When Karl bowed, from his angle, he could see that under the sunlight, Liu Zhao's smile was not only warm and friendly, but his delicate skin seemed to be covered with a faint platinum halo. Even his originally black pupils turned into an incomparably beautiful pale gold at this moment through the sunlight.

This scene completely stunned Karl.

Golden...golden pupils?

Karl was stunned for a while until Liu Zhao couldn't help but wave his hand in front of his eyes, and then he suddenly came back to his senses.

"What's wrong, Baron? Why are you suddenly spacing out?"

When Liu Zhao asked him a question, Baron Karl suddenly became agitated.

"I apologize, Your Highness. I will arrange your affairs as soon as possible, but I have just remembered something very important that I need to attend to, so I must take my leave now."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Baron Karl bowed again and then quickly left.

Seeing his indescribably excited expression and hurried movements, Liu Zhao couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.

This young baron is surprisingly quite youthful and passionate.

Having achieved his goal of borrowing money to go to school, Liu Zhao had some rare free time and began to stroll around the castle area.

At the same time, what he didn't know was that Baron Karl, who had just left, went straight to his wife, Love.

*Bang!*

The sudden push of the door startled Love, who was combing her hair in front of the mirror. She immediately frowned, glared at him, and put her hands on her hips, ready to lash out.

However, the first words Baron Karl uttered the next second left Love stunned.

"Honey! This time, we've really struck gold!"

"That prince, he's not only royalty... he's also... a descendant of the Celestial Dragons!"

The moment Karl, his face beaming with excitement, uttered those words, Love's eyes widened, her mouth agape, her gaze filled with disbelief.

The baroness stood there stunned, not even noticing the comb that fell from her hand to the ground.

She stood up abruptly, grabbed Karl's arms with both hands, and her voice trembled.

"You... what did you say? A descendant of the Celestial Dragon Clan? That's the legendary bloodline of the gods, the noblest among the elite. Are you sure?"

Carl nodded excitedly.

"Just now, when I was talking to him in the open space, I truly noticed that his skin tone was completely different from ours! He wasn't pure white at all, but a noticeably deeper pale gold! And his black pupils, in the sunlight, turned into a transparent golden yellow, like the shimmering light of amber!"

"Golden skin, golden eyes! There's no mistake, he must be the legendary, supreme, and incredibly mysterious descendant of the Celestial Dragons!"
