The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem
Chapter 172 The farce begins
"It's time. We should get ready to meet that idiot."
During these five boring days, Aarons deliberately ran all over Moti City.
Most of the people in the city were neutral about this matter - after all, the two sides in the conflict were an unknown noble on one side and a good-for-nothing young master on the other. No matter who won or lost, it would not affect the lives of ordinary people.
"That guy seemed to have come here on his own airship, with about a hundred people. He just entered the city last night... Rich people really put on a big show."
"Marquis, I just received a call from the base. Her Royal Highness has indeed been harassed a lot in the past few days. Some people even asked Her Royal Highness to leave with them immediately, otherwise they would organize people to attack the base."
"Are these people really brainless?"
Maybe the great nobles still don't take Aarons and Clary seriously until now - in their eyes, no matter how these two young people with insufficient strength and no background resist, they will eventually succumb to their rules and order.
That's why Aarons planned to slap them hard in the face.
"I just looked at today's newspaper. The guy who came is called William Booker. He is indeed the heir to the Duke of Booker's family."
"That little guy doesn't have much power, but he may have a lot of ancient items in his hands - ancient scrolls can store special magic, so you must be careful."
During the Demon War thousands of years ago, humans were able to create props to store magic, but not long after the war ended, this technology was suddenly lost, and no one has ever been able to reproduce it.
If that technology could have been preserved to this day, perhaps human civilization would have advanced even further.
"I don't know what he will bring, and there is no way to prepare in advance... Where is Miss Qianyun?"
"She should still be out there practicing the magic transformation I taught her. Marquis, that child is truly a genius. Please make sure you keep her by your side."
"I'll try my best. Teacher Jiangyue, we should set off now."
Since it was really late, Aarons didn't plan to waste any time.
When he and Jiang Yue walked into the yard, Mo Qianyun seemed to have just finished his practice.
"My Lord Marquis, Master. Is it time to set off?"
"The time is right, let's go."
Although he had no interest in this farce, Aarons still planned to play the role of a good host - after all, this was his home, and not everyone could come here and do whatever they wanted.
As soon as the three of them went out, they saw the bus that the city government had prepared for them. Because the stage was already packed with people, if they didn't use some privileges, they would not be able to get there in time.
"Mr. Marquis, His Royal Highness the Third Prince asked us to tell you that he will not attend this event."
"I see. Luo Lan is quite wise."
The driver was a royal knight under the command of the Third Prince, and two city office staff led the way. After the three got on the bus and sat down, the bus slowly drove towards the stage in the central square.
Although Aarons and Jiang Yue were enjoying the privileges of nobility with peace of mind, Mo Qianyun was obviously a little uneasy - she knew very well that she should not sit in the car with her current status.
"I...why don't you go down..."
"Sit down, we don't mind."
Although Aarons really didn't care much, this kindness made the other party even more anxious.
After discovering the student's embarrassment, Jiang Yue took the initiative to help relieve her stress.
"Miss Qianyun, the Marquis' commission will be over after today. What do you plan to do next?"
"I... don't know yet."
"Didn't you say you would challenge me three times? Then let Teacher Jiangyue spar with you."
Because he realized that the other party was still confused, Aarons deliberately did not invite her. Jiang Yue, who understood Aarons's thoughts, did not take the initiative to say anything to keep her.
——They all believed that this upright girl could make the right choice on her own.
"Mr. Marquis, the car can only go this far. You will have to walk on foot from now on."
"The distance doesn't seem too far, let's go."
Because the surrounding roads were completely blocked by the spectators, the bus was eventually forced to stop beside the square. However, the city hall reserved a passage for Aarons, so they quickly entered the inner field of the stage.
At this time, the heir to the Duke's family was surrounded by a large group of his subordinates and was giving a very passionate speech to the audience.
"Have you all had a good time these days? Today is a day worth celebrating, so I, William Booker, have decided once again to invest 100,000 gold coins in this city so that everyone can live such a good life every day in the future!"
Aarons, who was still looking for an opportunity to go on stage at the back, suddenly had the urge to punch the other person when he heard this meaningless speech.
You can take 100,000 gold coins just like that?! You have to invest so much money in such a shabby city just to get engaged?! Do you have too much money in your family and have nowhere to spend it?!
"Don't be angry, Marquis. Although the Duke of Booker can afford 100,000 gold coins, they will definitely not let this little guy use it so casually. He is just trying to create atmosphere."
"I can't help it...I'll go up when he mentions me."
Because he had personally experienced the pain of being short of money, Aarons didn't dare to spend money casually until now. He would only have less than ten gold coins in his pocket, which was a huge sum of money for him.
Now someone actually said that he would take out 100,000 gold coins in one go, which made him want to just go and rob them.
"Maybe some people don't know why I'm here, so let me explain it to you all! Today, I, William Booker, will hold an official engagement ceremony with the Imperial Princess Claire Armand here!"
After hearing this declaration, there was an immediate outbreak of enthusiastic cheers from the audience below the stage - of course, apart from those who were specifically there to stir up the atmosphere, the rest of the audience were mostly waiting to watch the show.
Aarons had the guts to flirt with the princess in public during the live broadcast. How dare you, the son of a duke, snatch her away?
This must be a good fight!
"You may not know that Her Royal Highness did not have any engagement before. Aarons Moti just wanted to use Her Royal Highness's reputation to achieve his own ulterior motives, so he used sweet words to deceive the innocent and kind-hearted Her Royal Highness!"
Although everyone knew that he was talking nonsense, being able to lie without blushing or beating his heart might be a skill.
"And now, Her Highness the Princess has recognized the true face of that despicable man after my careful persuasion! So——"
"Okay, okay, if you keep talking I'm going to start swearing."
Before the Duke's son finished his passionate and generous speech, Aarons took the initiative to walk up from the stage.
His sudden appearance made the originally excited audience seats suddenly quiet down.
"I wanted to hear what you were going to say, but I didn't expect you to even belittle Claire..."
Seeing Aarons, who was powerless but exuded a terrifying aura, walking onto the stage step by step, even the Duke's son almost forgot to breathe.
"If you don't explain what happened today clearly, then be prepared to not be able to leave the stage intact."
