Chapter 454 Auction trap (31)
As I looked at the fourth prince, I couldn't help deeply knitting my brows after hearing him say this.
To anyone else, this should have been a dream.
After all, the promise of a free favour from the fourth prince was something that countless people in this kingdom wanted.
However, it was anything but a dream for me.
I knew that once I made this request, he would be free to do whatever he wanted with me. It would wipe out the debt of this one favour that I had already done for him, freeing him to do what he wanted with me without any regret.
That was the worst case scenario for me.
This time it was killing a prince...what would it be next time?
Would he make me start a coup with him next time?
I definitely couldn't allow that to happen.
But if I were to reject him...would that offend the fourth prince?
He was going out of his way to make this offer and if I rejected this offer directly, it would seem like I didn't appreciate him and this offer. It would make it seem like I was looking down on him and his kindness.
So it was all about how to decline the fourth prince.n).o..v((E..L/-b-(I)-n
I looked at him in silence for a bit before finally deciding on what to do.
"Your highness, thank you for this kind offer, but I will have to reject it. It was a deal that was about necessity for both of us, so I can't feel right about taking anything. We were just doing what we needed to do." I said in a slow and calm voice.
The fourth prince raised a brow as if he was surprised by this before saying, "Is that so. Are you sure that there isn't anything that you want?"
I shook my head and said, "I just hope that your highness will continue to look out for me in the future."
The fourth prince gave a nod before saying, "Of course, I've already given you my promise that I would and I won't back down on that now."
This time, it was my turn to be surprised.
After all, I never thought that the fourth prince would be so enthusiastic about making this promise.
It was as if he had something personal at stake here...
That was also why I couldn't help feeling that there was something bad here...almost as if something bad was about to happen to me.
I suppressed that feeling and said in a polite voice, "Then I'll have to rely on your highness in the future."
The fourth prince revealed a wide smile as he nodded in agreement.
But then as if he felt that something was off, he said, "No, I can't just let you go back empty handed. I should give you something for everything that you've done."
"Shadow Five." The fourth prince suddenly said and a cloaked figure suddenly appeared in the carriage.
It seemed that she had been here the entire time, but she had hidden herself. As for how she had hidden herself, I really had no idea...
The fourth prince turned to the cloaked figure that had already fallen to one knee and said, "I want you to keep protecting Count Zwein for me. Be sure to follow his orders and keep him safe."
Though her face couldn't be seen, it was clear by her body language that she seemed disappointed by this.
The fourth prince didn't seem to notice this at all as he turned back to me and said, "In addition to this, I will be giving you a few more things that will help you with your territory."
I was taken aback by this sudden generosity from the fourth prince, but I quickly said, "Your highness, there is no need for that. As long as your highness is willing to support me, then that will be enough."
The fourth prince knitted his brows when he heard this.
He just looked at me with this frown on his face before coming forward to say, "Are you looking down on me?"
I couldn't help trembling when I heard this.
This was the one thing that I was afraid of when trying to reject the fourth prince's offer.
But before I could say anything to rectify this, the fourth prince suddenly revealed a smile and said, "I can guess what you are thinking, but you don't need to worry. I won't involve you in anything else from now on since there's no need for you to be involved. I will take care of everything on my own and you can just return to your territory until it's time."
"It's time?" I couldn't help repeating under my breath as I didn't understand what he meant by this.
However, before I could ask the fourth prince, he already sat back down in his seat and looked out the window.
The look on his face made it seem like nothing I said would change his mind...so I could only sit there with a worried look on my face.
I didn't know what the fourth prince had planned, but I didn't think that it would be anything good.
I knew what kind of personality the fourth prince had because of my knowledge from the game, so I knew that whatever plan he had...it would be very bad for me.
I just couldn't stop it...
All I could do was think of a way to minimize the damage so that I could protect the things that I cared about in the future.
As we traveled through the streets, I heard the fourth prince mutter under his breath, "If I don't make sure that his place has everything, I'll never hear the end of it from her...She'll surely be angry that I didn't take care of everything."
I couldn't help looking at the fourth prince with a strange look, but he was completely lost in his own world and wasn't in any mood to talk to me.
However, there was a bad feeling that built up inside of me...
It felt like something was going to happen, something bad.
