As a villain, I really don't want to be pursued by the heroine.

Roy rolled his eyes at her and said, "Just telling the truth."

"Besides, since we are allies, I won't be so easily alienated by outsiders."

Lyanna raised her eyebrows, looking very happy: "Does that mean I am your junior's wife?"

Roy was stunned, coughed twice, and said seriously: "Just an ally."

"We're just allies." Lyanna lowered her head in frustration, like a little snake left out in the cold, which was inexplicably cute.

But in Roy's opinion, this was just a trick of the witch to deceive people.

Roy would not listen to Jason and regard him as an enemy, but he would not trust him blindly either. After all, Lyanna was just a temporary partner.

He held out his hand to Lyanna. "Give it back."

"Must I return it? It's so rare for a junior to give me a gift." Lyanna asked knowingly, spreading her hands and teasing softly, "It's ungentlemanly to ask for a gift back from a lady."

Roy's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he said angrily: "Hey, I just lent it to you, I didn't say I was giving it to you!"

"Good good."

Lyanna responded in a coaxing tone for a while, then took out the [Hand of the Titan] from her storage items.

Roy was dumbfounded.

Because the wand, which originally had a simple shape, was now broken into two pieces.

"What's happening here?!"

Under Roy's murderous questioning, Lyanna said helplessly: "There's nothing I can do. This thing has a limited endurance."

"Don't be ridiculous. You're only Sequence 7. How could it possibly not be able to withstand it?"

"It wasn't me, it was the [Howling Ocean Guard]. The wand and the summon are one, and a head-on collision with a Sequence 6 magical phantom would be quite a strain on it." Lyanna changed the subject and said softly, "But don't worry, junior. The wand's core is intact and can be repaired."

After hearing what Lyanna said, Roy breathed a sigh of relief and took back the wand that was broken into two pieces.

After all, this thing was just a casual trophy, and it had already served its purpose, so I didn't feel too bad about it. However, Jason's [Howling Ocean Iron Guard] was completely scrapped, and there was no way to repair it, which inevitably led to a wave of condemnation from the South Sea Kingdom.

Thinking of this, Roy felt better.

"By the way, I didn't expect that my junior brother actually hid this level of cult items. He is really good at hiding them." Lyanna narrowed her eyes, her tone full of strong interest.

To this, Roy simply responded coldly: "Even if we are allies, it's not polite to pry too much into other people's backgrounds."

Lyanna didn't take it too seriously: "Yes, then let's talk about some topics among allies."

The brown-haired witch stepped forward, gently pressed the boy's shoulder, and whispered in his ear: "I helped you deal with the South Sea faction this time. How do you plan to repay me, your senior sister?"

There is no good thing in the world without a reason, let alone asking for help from a witch?

Although he was not as hostile to Lyanna as Jason, Roy was not naive enough to think that Lyanna would attack him in vain.

Roy pulled away from Lyanna, "I know. I'll talk to Charlotte about the territory and compensation."

But Lyanna sighed as if she was very disappointed.

"Unfortunately, I'm not interested in those."

"Ugh?"

"It's you I want."

Lyanna stepped forward again, forcing Roy to step back subconsciously, but he bumped into the gate of Nanhai Mansion.

The girl was smiling, but her eyes were full of possessiveness, like a hunter. "Like I said before, join the student council."

"this......"

Roy suddenly got a headache.

This guy is determined to poach people!

I had originally said I would use the South China Sea faction as an excuse, but who could have imagined that the South China Sea faction would be so ineffective and collapsed in just a few days! Now I don't even have a reason to refuse!

"Girls have done so much for you, can't you even fulfill such a small wish?" Lyanna wiped away the non-existent tears, with a face full of resentment, as if she was a poor little sister who was toyed with by a scumbag.

Looking at Lyanna's deliberate acting, Roy couldn't help but frown.

But I really owe her a big favor this time.

Without the intervention of the Dark Magic faction, the dispute between Lionheart and South Sea would have continued for a long time, not to mention that Lyanna took the initiative to help him deal with the [Howling Ocean Guard] this time.

If it's to repay this favor, I can consider the student union's affairs...

Seeing the boy's increasingly wavering gaze through the gaps between her fingers, Lyanna couldn't help but secretly raise the corners of her lips.

Sure enough, friendship can move this guy more than the temptation of interests.

But at this moment, a dull question came from behind.

"Witch, could you please stay away from my knight?"

Chapter 53: Falling in love is also part of your preparation (×)?

Roy left Lyanna almost without thinking, went to Charlotte, pulled her aside, pressed close to her, and whispered to her.

This action made Lyanna frown slightly.

The black-haired boy's eyes were not as sharp as when he was facing Jason, nor were they as distant as when he was facing her. Instead, they were gentle and warm like spring sunshine.

Charlotte hesitated for a while, but finally gave up and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say."

Charlotte was naturally unwilling to let Roy join the student union.

But on the one hand, Lyanna did help her a lot, and on the other hand, Roy still wanted to cooperate with her on the matter of the Proof of Kings, so Charlotte had to compromise temporarily.

Roy first smiled apologetically at Charlotte, then turned back to look at Lyanna.

"I can join the student union temporarily, but I also need to remain a member of the Lionheart faction."

For now. And still don't forget the Lionheart faction.

Catching the wariness and alienation in these words, Lyanna's eyelashes trembled slightly, but she still nodded slightly: "No problem."

Charlotte, who was standing by with her arms folded, spoke at this moment, her voice dull and majestic: "Witch, I will never forget your kindness. As long as you do not violate the alliance, Lionheart will naturally regard you as an ally."

"But Roy's case is different. I don't know what you want from Roy, but if you dare to hurt him..."

Charlotte paused slightly, a fierce light gleaming in her crimson eyes, and she released a warning without disguising it.

"Don't doubt it, I will make you pay the price."

However, facing the Lionheart's overwhelming aura, Lyanna smiled calmly: "You suddenly declare your sovereignty like this, Your Highness, are you afraid that I will steal your knight?"

Charlotte's brows sank, but she quickly smiled and raised her head: "You can't take him away from me."

The brown-haired girl was slightly startled, and her originally bright smile was tinged with a hint of coldness.

Seeing that there was a hint of tension between the two girls, Roy quickly stepped forward to smooth things over.

"You've been busy all night, and I'm sure you're all tired. Senior, I'll go back with Charlotte first."

"That's right, we'll go back first." Charlotte repeated it with great force, put her arm around Roy's arm, and glanced at Lyanna lightly.

Roy had no choice but to escort his prince home.

"Senior sister or something, you're calling her that in a very intimate way, right?"

"No way? Isn't this a normal name?"

"Humph!"

Looking at the two of them clinging to each other as they walked into the morning light, Lyanna, who was still lingering in the night, couldn't help but feel dazed, and a strong sense of emptiness emerged in her heart.

Recalling the look the boy had given Charlotte, Lyanna became even more upset.

Lyanna covered her face with her hands, and after a moment of silence, she suddenly smiled faintly.

"It doesn't matter, Roy Ironblad. I'll make you mine sooner or later."

"Something that belongs only to me."

Roy felt a chill for no apparent reason, and looked back uneasily at the Nanhai Mansion behind him, but he could not see the graceful figure, only the wandering figures of countless members of the Nanhai and Dark Magic factions.

Charlotte also gritted her teeth slightly, almost squeezing out a sentence from between her teeth: "Why, are you so reluctant to part with your senior sister?"

Roy quickly explained righteously, "How could that be? I only have eyes for you, Charlotte."

As Roy spoke, he hugged the little princess in his arms. As he expected, Charlotte groaned symbolically, and then her originally stern face softened.

Compared to before, Roy found that he seemed to be getting better and better at dealing with girls.

Although there is still some distance between her and Lyanna, Charlotte is still quite easy to deal with. She will stop being angry after a little coaxing.

However, just as he was thinking this, he heard Fu Dui suddenly say, "Only me?"

"Ah."

Charlotte smiled, revealing a small canine tooth. "Not bad, I'll show it off to that green tea elf when I get back."

"Ah this..."

Roy couldn't help but feel ashamed.

Preface withdrawn.

It seems that even Her Royal Highness the Princess is not that easy to appease.

------------

Lyanna hated it here.

The air was cold and damp, tinged with the stench of blood and decay. Without a ray of sunlight, the darkness was almost pitch black. In the long, suspended corridors, the only people walking were black-robed, expressionless magicians and deformed children chained and dragged along like livestock.

The surroundings were filled with whispers that sounded like wailing, pleading, and curses. The eyes of the children cast a mixture of hope, envy, and hatred, but for the majority, their eyes were already empty and cold.

Lyanna had been one of them.

Like a laboratory animal, she kept taking modified potions that almost killed her.

Every time she passed by here, Lyanna would recall those dark kings, and a bitter taste would well up in her mouth that almost made her nauseous.

But as a member of the School of Dark Magic, reporting to her mentor was her obligation.

She tried her best to hold her breath, walked through the long corridor, and finally reached the deepest part of the Black Magicians' Society and pushed the door open to enter.

In the spacious hall, countless dirty black pipes hung from the ceiling, and at the center where those pipes converged was the old man sitting in some kind of hatch container.

The old man had pale hair, a pale face, and a skinny body, like a candle in the wind.

Even just opening his eyes seemed to take all his strength.

However, his eyes contained a terrifying pressure that was like the abyss and shocked the soul, causing Lyanna to lower her head unconsciously.

It is difficult for extraordinary people to find their way on their own. Nobles are often carefully taught by family members, and every magician is cultivated by his or her own mentor.

Lyanna was able to reach where she is today thanks to the great magician in front of her.

The head of the dark magic school, Ike.

But Lyanna showed no gratitude towards him.

The Southern Prince was right. Those whose minds were corrupted by the dark magic potion had long since become cold-blooded and heartless. Both he and Ike were ultimately exploiting each other, trying to squeeze every last ounce of value out of each other.

"Teacher, this week's report is as follows..."

"In short, the South Sea faction has been completely defeated, and the Dark Magic faction will become the most powerful faction in the academy. Your status in the academy will surely also..."

Before Lyanna could finish her words, Ike sighed impatiently.

"That kind of thing doesn't matter at all."

"You know this without me telling you, right? If you don't get promoted, you'll soon follow in the footsteps of your seniors."

"There are as many mutant and deformed monsters as you want. Your life is not yours to control. You'd better not let me down."

Lyanna bit her lip, but still replied, "I understand."

"I've heard that Hydra's poison sac will appear at a black market auction next week, and I'm already preparing for it."

The dying old man suddenly sneered, like the howling of a cold wind.

"Is getting close to the false king's blood also part of your preparation?"
