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

Roy's first reaction was bandits.

But which blind bandit would dare to intercept a noble's convoy?

Just as Roy was wondering, the carriage suddenly stopped.

"Master is in danger!"

Before Roy could push away, he was pulled out by the black-haired cat girl who broke in.

The little cat girl was so strong that she almost shook Roy's breakfast out.

"Meow! Protect the Master!"

"Qiao, Qiao Ke! Calm down!"

Vanilla's panicked and helpless voice of dissuasion came from the side.

"Is this the time to calm down?!"

If you don't calm down, I'm going to vomit on you!

Seeing that Chocolate was trying to carry him on his shoulders, Roy had no choice but to grab the furry tail. The black-haired cat girl shuddered as if she had been electrocuted, and then softened and put Roy down.

Roy looked carefully, but there was no enemy.

The teams blocking the way ahead are the Wang family team, and the leader is none other than Charlotte's [Cake]!

The door of the royal carriage opposite opened, and the blushing princess stepped out of the carriage, walking slowly towards him with a kind face.

"Miss Kui Ben said she would come to accompany you, but now it seems that it was unnecessary."

The sharp gaze fell on Qiao Ke, making her tremble.

"Master Roy is in such a refined mood, with a black and white cat maid serving him."

Only then did Choco realize that he had done something stupid, and he hid behind Roy in fear.

But Roy raised his eyebrows in delight: "Charlotte came here just to accompany me?"

Remember her territory is not in this direction, which means she took a detour!

"Who's here to accompany you? It's just that that idiot Lisa went in the wrong direction, so I just came to accompany you!" Charlotte immediately turned her head away, crossed her arms, and snorted with forced determination.

Lisa standing by gave an understanding smile and silently bore everything.

Roy didn't point it out, but continued to smile and said, "It's enough that Charlotte is willing to come and accompany me."

"...I told you not to call my name in front of others." Charlotte pouted, her ears gradually getting hot, but there was a hint of joy on her face, which was awkward and cute.

"Come in and sit down? My carriage is quite big."

So Roy successfully coaxed Princess Lionheart into the carriage.

The carriage is not narrow, but it is an enclosed space where two people can be alone facing each other. The air is so quiet that it seems like another world from the outside.

Only then did Roy raise a hint of joking in his voice, "Didn't Charlotte really come here just to keep me company?"

The red-haired girl held up her soft little face and slightly averted her eyes. Her red eyes were filled with shame and annoyance as she softly muttered, "Idiot, isn't this obvious?"

"I just want to hear Charlotte say it herself."

"Hate!"

The air was no longer lonely and gloomy, and a burst of bright laughter rang out.

Chapter 98: Attack

The princess, who is usually arrogant and taciturn in front of others, becomes more talkative when she is alone.

"Actually, there's nothing wrong with my territory, but Leo insisted I go back, saying the capital might be in danger!" Charlotte's face was filled with helplessness and disgust whenever she mentioned Leo. "Are you kidding me? If the dragons really attack the capital, it would be useless for me to hide there!"

"They just care about you." Roy was very open-minded.

"I know! But..." Charlotte straightened up, then shrank back, biting her lip unwillingly: "As a member of the Wang family, I also want to do my part."

Charlotte looked out the window at the leisurely and quiet woods. Her usually elegant and proud face now looked unusually melancholy in the shadows.

Roy felt that she didn't need to be so anxious, but perhaps it was precisely because of this sense of responsibility as a member of the royal family that the girl in front of him would become the awe-inspiring "Lion Flame Princess" in the future, dominating this era.

Nowadays, it is definitely best to be obedient.

However, Roy needs to say more about Leo.

In hindsight, no one except Leo had the motive and ability to arrange this farce at that time.

Roy didn't want to say anything bad about his brother. The Second Prince didn't stop because of the Griffin Trial. His concern for Charlotte's marriage far exceeded the limits of a brother's care.

Why would a prince want to control the princess's marriage? If you think about it in a negative way, it's not just a matter of "brother's desire for control".

For example... usurping the throne.

This is not only for myself, but also for Charlotte's safety.

"Charlotte, about that woman last night..."

At this moment, a cry from outside the window interrupted Roy's words.

"Meow! Master, something's wrong!"

"Choco, you're here again. They say that smelling too much catnip will damage your nose... Hey, I think I'm also..."

What kind of a brace is this?!

Despite his complaints, Roy didn't dare to be negligent. He would rather make a mistake than suffer any real consequences.

"What's wrong?" Charlotte looked at him strangely.

"Orcs have a keen sense of smell. There might be an enemy."

"Enemy? How is that possible?" Charlotte was a little amused.

The golden and red griffin was as eye-catching as a raging fire. Who would dare to attack the Wang family's carriage in broad daylight?

But the next moment, she found that Roy's expression was more serious than ever.

Because in front of Roy, a warning popped up on the panel!

[Warning! Contact with Lionheart detected, triggering the fate-defying mission. Every choice you make will change your fate, please choose carefully!]

[Lionheart·Defying Fate Progress]: 35%

[Current Fate-Defying Node Angel]

Then there was a loud noise outside the carriage and the neighing of a griffin.

"careful!"

Before Charlotte could even react, Roy knocked her down.

The next moment, everything turned upside down.

A crimson fireball struck the carriage the two men were in, triggering the carriage's defensive spells and flipping it over to the ground!

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"Protect Her Royal Highness and Lord Roy!"

Countless black-robed cultists emerged urgently from the jungle. These people rushed into the knights with bare hands, and were able to block sword blades with their bare hands, dent breastplates with one punch, and actually suppressed the guards of Roy and Charlotte's families!

The surrounding swords rang and shook, and blood and flesh flew everywhere.

Roy kicked the carriage door, which had lost its protective function, and dragged Charlotte out by the hand.

"Charlotte! Are you hurt?"

"I'm fine! But you..."

Charlotte looked at the battered young man in panic, but he turned around and smiled, "Have you forgotten again? This little injury is nothing to me."

Roy was covered in wood chips and glass, but thanks to his [Iron Bones], apart from his clothes being scratched, he didn't bleed.

Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, she was secretly glad that if the young man hadn't protected her, she would have suffered a lot.

Just as the two men got out of the carriage and stood firm, several thugs rushed through the knights' protective circle at the risk of their lives.

The black-robed cultist was stabbed by several swords, but he seemed to feel no pain. The muscles under his robes were bulging with veins, and were even covered with a layer of scales that only reptiles have!

Several black-robed believers stretched out their ferocious claws towards the two men, like bloodthirsty beasts!

But they didn't even touch the corners of their clothes.

A gust of fine wind whistled past.

The gust of wind was as sharp as a blade, turning into a straight streak of blood, piercing through the necks of several thugs in succession, splashing out spots of scarlet!

"Sister, I've been watched all over."

The maid's long skirt swayed, and Lisa, holding the wind rapier, was already blocking the two of them.

"Lisa! Why are these guys attacking us?! What the hell is going on..."

"Now is not the time to talk about this. We have to retreat first." Roy interrupted Charlotte's question lightly.

Lisa didn't expect Roy to be so calm. She glanced at him in surprise and nodded, "Your Highness, I'll leave it to you."

Lisa was like a sister to Charlotte, but Charlotte, still in a state of panic, couldn't accept it at all. She shouted angrily, "Are you kidding me? Are you going to abandon Lisa and the others?! As a member of the royal family, how could I..."

"excuse me!"

Now was not the time to argue. Roy put his arms around the girl's slender waist, lifted her up, and then turned around and ran into the depths of the jungle!

A group of black-robed thugs came around from the back and tried to catch up with Roy.

But two petite figures blocked their way.

"I already told you there's someone here, meow!"

"Woo woo, I get it, Vanilla was the one who wronged you, meow!"

The black-haired cat girl is aggressive, while the white-haired cat girl is pitiful.

The group of ruthless murderers were all amused.

Where did this stupid cat come from? It's like meat on the chopping board!

The villain who has already sold his soul to the dragon clan will show no mercy to the cute cat girl.

Coincidentally, the cat ladies also had no intention of showing mercy to them.

A group of villains opened their claws towards the two cat girls, but their delicate faces turned hideous in an instant!

The two petite figures instantly grew thick and dense hair, and their bodies swelled up like balloons.

Then a tiger claw bigger than a human face came down and smashed the thug into a meat patty with one claw!

The tiger's roar was like thunder, and two giant tigers, one black and one white, raged in the crowd like a hurricane!

Chocolate and Vanilla are rare pure-blooded orcs. They are born extraordinary beings and are extremely powerful elite monsters under the command of the small boss of "Angel Rondo", 'Bad Boy Roy'.

Even though he knew this, Roy was still frightened by the two man-eating tigers when he looked back. He thought it was a good thing that he had never offended these two guys in his daily life.

"Roy! How could you abandon them? Let me go back!" Charlotte was extremely anxious and struggled like a big catfish.

"No, those guys are coming for us. Staying here will only hold them back!"

Lisa, Chocolate, and Vanilla were no weaklings, but those villains were so numerous and powerful that if they stayed where they were, they would inevitably be affected. Furthermore, since they dared to attack the Wang family convoy, they must have some strong men among them.

Instead of being trapped where you are, it’s better to escape as soon as possible!

The safest place is still the capital, where the army is stationed. Fleeing back to the capital is the best option.

Chapter 99 True Face

"But......!"

Charlotte seemed to still be struggling, her two beautiful legs in black stockings kicking back and forth, and she was about to fall.

Roy could only slap him and yell, "They are guards, there to protect our safety! If we get caught or injured, their sacrifice will be in vain!"

While those cultists weren't as formidable as true transcendents, they were still incredibly formidable, far beyond the capabilities of the Guard Knights. In the chaos of battle, Lisa and the black and white maids alone couldn't guarantee their safety.

After hearing this, Charlotte finally calmed down.

It's just that I'm a little too content.
