Because he really didn't want to see the faces of the three people from the Third Prince's side for the time being, Aarons announced to the reporters that he had nothing to say, and then asked the Royal Guards to escort him back to the Marquis's Mansion.

However, since everyone at home had already watched the live broadcast, when he ran back alone in dejection, everyone, including the children, looked at him with strange expressions.

"Don't say anything, let me be alone for a while."

Because he was still a little confused, Aarons went upstairs, went into his bedroom, and lay down on the bed.

Keliya...Why did the princess do this?

His incompetence was well known in the empire, and he had no achievements or hidden talents to boast about. When Marquis Moti and his brother were still alive, almost no one cared about the unlucky young master.

But why is the princess willing to become his fiancée now?

Is it just a temporary expedient? This is unlikely. No matter which party takes the initiative to cancel the engagement, it will damage the reputation of both parties.

If he just wanted to use his identity to stir up the situation, it would be too much of a loss to pay the price of a princess.

So could it be that what the Third Prince said was true - the princess specifically asked to marry him, and that she really had feelings for him?

This is even more outrageous, isn't it? I and Claire have only met once, it's impossible... No, could it be that the unlucky young master and the princess had met somewhere?

“I can’t remember…”

The unlucky young master whose personality and soul have disappeared, has only incomplete memories. So now Aarons can't remember whether he had any relationship with the princess in the past, and even if he asks Xia Ye to help, he can't find any clues.

So if you want to know the answer, you can only ask in person.

"What should I do if she likes the old young master?"

He was not the real Aarons Morty, but an outsider who inherited his body, knowledge, and some of his memories.

If the princess really fell in love with the dull and stupid young master at first sight... then I must never deceive her.

Whether in his past life or this life, Aarons would never do anything despicable and shameless to take advantage of other people's feelings - this is his code of conduct and the arrogance engraved in his soul.

"Alas... we still have to take it one step at a time."

Before getting a definite answer, you can't jump to conclusions.

Therefore, the most important thing he should do now is to find out what Claire is really thinking.

"Anyway, let's deal with the current situation first."

But why do I always feel like I have suddenly become the villain?

……

When Aarons returned to the activity room downstairs, there were only four people left: Karin, Xia Ye, Els and Mary.

The children didn't understand what was going on, they just thought it was very lively. The Mo family couple were just ordinary people, and they didn't quite understand what happened in the morning.

"Master, you changed your identity just by going out."

"Stop talking. I don't understand what Your Highness is thinking."

Karin didn't seem to react, as if she didn't care at all that Aarons had a new fiancée. But Xia Ye was not right at this time - although she was still expressionless as always, the gloomy aura she exuded made people shudder.

She seemed angry.

"I don't understand what your Highness is thinking, nor do I know what agreement you have reached with the royal family. I just want to ask you... Is the contract between you and me still valid?"

Sometimes Aarons would indeed forget the contract he had made with Xia Ye - if he could get a stable territory and a prosperous life, he would no longer have to be bound by Xia Ye.

Now that the princess had suddenly come out and done this, it was equivalent to helping him realize his wish of "being a noble who just eats and waits for death all day long."

"I've said this before, I've never accomplished anything before... Now that I finally have the opportunity, I definitely want to do something with my own abilities."

Whether it is my previous self or the disappeared young master himself, the wishes in my heart should be the same.

"After all, what others give me is not what I earn. Even if I can accept it with peace of mind, it may not be what I want."

Aarons just wanted to prove that he was capable of doing something, and he didn't really want to wait for others to give him everything.

So when he found out after traveling through time that he didn't have any cheats like in the books he had read, he didn't feel resentful.

"So, Mr. Xia Ye, I'll have to trouble you to take care of me in the future."

"Yeah, yeah, that'll do."

Aarons finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xia Ye take the initiative to push up his glasses, and the gloomy feeling on his body instantly disappeared.

"But Master, have you thought about how to deal with the public opinion that will follow? You have publicly announced that you will participate in the competition, and now Her Royal Highness the Princess has come with such a big ship to support you... What will the other contestants think?"

This is the biggest problem now.

——The honorary nobles heard that the territory here could be openly contested, so they came to the border specifically.

After paying the high registration fee to the Empire, they began to study the rules in detail. After the incident in Marvel City, they began to look forward to the official giving a standard tutorial for novices.

Then they saw Her Royal Highness the Princess coming in a battleship and blowing all the enemies into pieces.

——Are you a newbie participating in the battle for the first time? Me too, let's exchange ideas and improve together, right?

"...I was beaten by the final boss before I even left the Novice Village?"

"Yes, they will definitely say that the Empire is defrauding them of their money."

Although everyone except Xia Ye didn't quite understand the strange words Aarons said, they could still understand Xia Ye's explanation.

Her Royal Highness the Princess, who has the support of the royal family, brought such things to the competition. How can others play?

"The ship should arrive here this afternoon, so I will go to see her tonight. I will first give the Third Prince a spiritual message and ask him to prepare--"

"No need. His Royal Highness the Third Prince has already contacted us. A public press conference will be held tomorrow morning to publicly explain your relationship with Her Royal Highness the Princess, and to explain some issues regarding the Battle of Zhengrong."

It seems that the supervisory group has long been aware of how public opinion will change.

So today I must go meet the princess and understand her true thoughts as soon as possible, and then I can give everyone a reasonable explanation.

"There's nothing I can do. I'll leave as soon as the ship comes. Karin and Xia Ye, you guys..."

"I won't go. I don't want to be a light bulb for you and the princess."

"This is a private matter between you and your fiancée. We servants cannot get involved."

...At this critical moment, you two actually want to watch the show?
