The second contestant to appear was still from the Ice Emperor Fleet, and his name was Kerry.

If Helmo was the epitome of aristocracy, then Kerry exuded the air of a prince. His eyes were a deep shade of blue, and there was a subtle melancholy about him that added to his charm. Standing at 1.8 meters tall, he didn't possess the frivolous demeanor of a playboy.

After bowing slightly to Olivia, Kerry spoke with a serious tone, "Miss Olivia, I won't hold back during our match."

Olivia glanced at Kerry, finding him quite presentable and respectable. He didn't come across as slick or oily.

As for the position, working under the Ice Emperor was an achievement to be proud of.

"Grandpa said I must get married soon... If I don't pick someone soon, he will get angry!"

Just then, Olivia caught a glimpse of Raine who looked impatient and fidgety. His behavior was quite irritating.

Kerry looked good, but only average. The real problem was that Olivia wanted to teach Raine a lesson and make him look bad.

Kerry's skills were on par with Helmo's. Despite he said he wouldn't hold back, he was still eliminated by Olivia in the end.

"I lost fair and square. Your skills are undeniable," Kerry politely remarked to Olivia.

Olivia gave him a polite nod in response.

After a long wait, Raine finally got his turn.

Compared to the two aristocratic princes who came before him, Raine, at 175 cm tall, lacked a certain aura of refinement. He had a slight baby face, which was less about his own youth and more about the fact that he was still in the process of growing.

Raine wasn't particularly handsome, but his appearance was pleasing enough.

Despite his unremarkable appearance, he was the only one who received the special treatment of Olivia initiating a conversation with him.

"Are you Raine!?" The cute little cat mask hid a pair of cold eyes that stared at Raine.

"Yep," Raine answered.

Olivia was almost driven to internal injuries by his nonchalant answer. He was clearly pretending to be clueless, with a face that showed no concern. She really wanted to teach him a lesson!

This topic couldn't be discussed any further, so Olivia changed the subject.

"Do you think you can take off my mask?"

"No, I can't," Raine said seriously.

Olivia's blood pressure skyrocketed. This guy was not going the usual route! He blocked all the humiliating words she had prepared for him.

"You can't take it off and you still went on stage?!"

"I..." Raine remembered what Scout had said. This little girl had a strong sense of self-esteem, so he had to pretend.

In order to satisfy his friend, Raine didn't mention being forced to go on stage.

So when the words were about to come out, he changed his tune, "I...I can't help it. My strength doesn't allow me to be low-key."

Olivia suffered another heavy blow. This guy's skin was too thick? Everyone saw how he advanced and he shamelessly said "strength"!

"Okay, if you have strength, then someone like you with strength, I definitely can't just stand there and do nothing. Fists and feet have no eyes, it's not my fault if you get hurt."

"Heyheyehey, do you have any misunderstandings about the rules? It should be me to get your mask, you just need to protect it. Why would you hurt me?"

"I'm willing!" Now Olivia had nothing to fear. This man would definitely not come to take off her mask. Someone had told him that he reluctantly participated in the competition at the urging of Scout.

Looking at his performance on the field, except for the first round where he crushed other people's plots, the second round was just for show! This further confirmed that Raine definitely didn't want to grab her mask.

Since that was the case, there was no need for the defense at all, just attacking. If she really ended up hurting him, just say "the best defense is the offense." With Grandpa backing her up, no one would say anything.

Raine found this woman to be unreasonable.

A bell rang, and the match began. In the instant the match started, Olivia struck towards Raine's chest with both palms.

Raine didn't expect this woman to attack so fiercely, and he was about to be unable to dodge in time. But he suddenly thought of a way.

He didn't know why the woman had such a big grudge against him. In that case, she definitely wouldn't want him to marry her. So she would definitely do everything to protect her mask. Since that's the case, he could ease her attack on him by pretending to go for her mask!

Raine didn't defend himself but instead grabbed towards Olivia's mask.

"You!" Olivia almost went crazy. Why didn't this guy defend against her attack and suddenly try to remove her mask?

However, in order to protect himself, Raine had already activated his "Tiger's Fang". His basic attributes had reached 840! While improving his resistance to being struck, his speed was also not to be underestimated!

Olivia wanted to protect her mask with all her might, but Raine's hands were already on her face. Olivia instinctively moved backward, but instead of avoiding Raine's hands, she accidentally pulled the knot behind the mask, and it came off...

At this moment, the whole arena fell silent.

Everyone's mouths were wide open, looking at this scene in disbelief.

That guy was holding Olivia's mask in his hands!

"Oh my god, really? He took it off!"

"It hasn't even been five seconds yet. Do these two have a secret relationship? Look, Miss Olivia didn't even defend herself, obviously waiting for him to take off her mask."

"Now that you mention it, that's probably what happened! Miss Olivia only needed to defend, but she suddenly attacked in this match, and she didn't even hit him in the end. She was probably just putting on a show!"

Everyone seemed to have discovered a great secret.

Trajan stood up excitedly and asked the scout, "Did he take it off?"

Scout took a look and nodded in confirmation, "He did it!"

Trajan breathed a sigh of relief. He never thought that it would actually work!

The two most shocked people in the arena were undoubtedly the two people involved. Raine still had his hands raised in front of him, with a look of shock on his face.

Why do I have a mask on my hands? Is that girl stupid? I told her to protect her mask properly, why did she have to attack? If you're going to attack, at least protect your mask. Why didn't you take any defensive measures and just attack recklessly? How much do you hate me to abandon all defense and just hope for a fatal blow?

Olivia stared with her eyes wide open, she couldn't understand why this person would abandon his defense to remove her mask.

If you didn't want to marry me, why did you risk your life just to take off my mask? Are you crazy?

Outside the arena, Fancy jumped into Armin's arms, "Armin, men are all liars. He clearly said he wouldn't marry her, but look at him now, this big liar!"

After a few moments of silence, Olivia finally spoke up.

She felt very wronged right now as if this was God's greatest punishment to her, but with so many people around, her grandfather's reputation could not be defamed by others, so she had to accept this outcome.

"Raine, you won..." she said, tears the size of beans falling from her eyes.

Raine put down the mask and saw Olivia's face.

This was an unexpectedly beautiful woman. Even in her current state of distress, made people feel compassion. But unfortunately, Raine, who was always vulgar, was not impressed by her beauty.

"I'm sorry, this was a misunderstanding, I... can't marry you," Raine said in a low voice.

Olivia looked up at Raine in surprise. At this moment, the boy's face was devoid of any jokes, teasing, or mockery. He was very serious.

"What did you say?" Olivia couldn't believe her ears. Could a man who saw her like this still say such a thing?

Money, wealth, beauty, status, it could be said that everything that people in the King class Sea dream of was now right in front of Raine!

Raine handed the kitten mask to Olivia. "I said I can't marry you!"

"Why not?"

"Because...I won't stop my footsteps here!" Raine said firmly.
