In addition to that, there is...

A moment later, when Darkness arrived in a hurry, Ronan wiped the sticky liquid off his hands before letting her lead him to the lord's residence.

……

Inside Aldap's mansion, Ronan met Darkness's fiancé.

This man, named Balta, had a sunny disposition and was in his early twenties. He was said to be the lord's son.

But the two don't look alike at all.

If one is a gemstone, then the other is a grain of sand.

I later found out that it was adopted.

Hearing Darkness's righteous and stern refusal, Balta's hands, gripping the teacup, tightened slightly, and she sighed:

"Did Her Highness Alice give the order herself? I understand. My father was originally looking forward to the marriage between our two families."

"But since the princess has intervened, there really is no other way."

This is called force majeure.

Who would have thought?

In another room, Aldap, who had just returned, heard these words and gritted his teeth.

He finally understood why a meteorite had destroyed everything.

"You forced me to do this, Your Highness."

“I didn’t want to possess your brother either, but you’ve repeatedly thwarted my plans.”

"That young and strong body should be able to support me in this battle for a long time."

Although his heart was filled with hatred, a glimmer of hope also began to sprout in Aldap's heart.

After all, Jedis is a top-tier figure in the capital, both in appearance and strength.

Moreover, barring any unforeseen circumstances, if he succeeds in possessing someone's body, he might even be able to ascend to the throne.

Thinking of the princess's actions today, Aldap clenched his large fist and snorted coldly:

"Lalatina is mine, and you will be mine too. I believe no girl can tolerate being taken by her brother..."

"Once the old emperor dies, I will poison that hero to death."

"At that time, I will make you spend your lives in agony!"

As he envisioned that bright future, a greedy glint shone in Aldap's eyes.

He carefully pulled a necklace from his pocket, his bloated body trembling with excitement.

But just then, with a loud "bang," the door was kicked open.

Wood chips flew like projectiles, a few grazing his cheek.

"!"

He was so frightened that he quickly stuffed the necklace into his pocket, turned his head to look, and immediately flew into a rage.

The hero who appeared outside the door was the very same hero he both hated and feared.

"you……!"

He hadn't finished speaking.

Frillie crossed her arms, her tone revealing undisguised rejection.

“Ronan, I hate him. I heard the whispers just now, and I never expected him to do that kind of thing to us.”

"Yes, I heard that too. Don't worry, he can't escape."

Ronan knew that most of the nobles in this world were scum, but he never expected them to be this scum.

You have to be arrogant in front of yourself.

can only say.

It would be a real shame not to use this fat body as a sky lantern.

"Are you going to surrender willingly or... never mind, this fat pig isn't worth giving a chance."

Ronan shook his head slightly, too lazy to waste any more words. After speaking, he disappeared from the spot and appeared in front of Aldap the next second.

Punch.

boom!

Aldap's eyes widened so much that his eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets, and he was instantly beaten into a puddle of mud.

"Ho..."

He groaned and fell to the ground.

Ronan didn't stand on ceremony and pulled the necklace straight out of his pocket.

It is light gold in color and has Japanese characters engraved inside.

This is probably the incantation.

Not bad.

He put it away and kicked Aldap twice.

He turned to look at Balta.

“We’ve taken your adoptive father with us; he’s utterly wicked.”

"Someone will come to meet you shortly and tell you about the crimes he committed."

"Huh? Why are you looking at me like that? Do you have some problem with my decision?"

Ronan raised his eyebrows.

Since Balta was just an ordinary human, he did not hear his adoptive father's malicious thoughts.

Even so, he knew that the current situation was beyond the control of a mere lord's son.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and shook his head repeatedly.

"No, no, please feel free to do as you please."

But in his heart he was thinking that he had to tell the princess about this.

Even a hero would be far too reckless!

The lord's status was no less than that of a grand duke.

He was beaten up like this.

They must be severely punished!

Chapter 246, Section 247: I persuade people with reason.

A moment later, Ronan dragged Aldap, who was as stiff as a dead pig, away from the mansion.

Balta breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

He then quickly went to the capital to report to the princess.

When he arrived, he found that everyone there had a serious expression on their face, and the atmosphere was solemn, as if something big was about to happen.

Balta reached out and stopped a guard, asking why.

The visitor was the lord's son.

The guards bowed respectfully.

"Lord Alexei, don't you know?"

"Just now, a Crimson Demon Clan diviner predicted that a meteorite will fall tomorrow and directly destroy the capital."

"This incident has made everyone very nervous."

Balta was startled, his eyes widening slightly as he asked in surprise, "A meteorite? If that's the case, why aren't you leaving?"

The guard sighed, "I wish I could..."

He glanced around to make sure no one was watching before lowering his voice.

"It is said that the Hero will intervene. His Majesty the Emperor and the Princess both trust him unconditionally."

"Since His Majesty and His Highness are not leaving, we subordinates naturally cannot leave without permission."

Upon hearing this, Balta raised an eyebrow, the frustration that had just disappeared surging up again, and his fists clenched involuntarily.

A hero, and a hero once again.

What exactly is this person trying to do?

Shooting?

Did he think he could handle the meteorite?

This is clearly playing with the lives of royalty and innocent soldiers!

At this moment, he saw the princess appear, so he quickly ran up to report and questioned the hero's actions.

As the lord's son, he believed he had the right to express his opinion.

However, before the princess could speak, she was scolded by Kureya, who was standing to the side.

"Insolence, Alexei Banies Balta! Watch your words!"

"How dare you question the hero?"

"Someone, take Mr. Alexei away to calm down!"

As the princess's personal bodyguard, she valued the princess's reputation highly and would never allow anyone to question the princess's decisions.

To question the hero is to say that the princess has misjudged him.

Upon hearing this, several guards exchanged glances and slowly stepped forward.

However, once they got close to Balta and surrounded him, they stopped moving, their eyes darting around.
