As Paladin flew over his city, he noticed many citizens looking up at him and waving happily. Paladin clicked his tongue in annoyance as he ignored them and flew straight towards the largest building in the middle of the city. This is the Palace of the ruler of the Thinkers. The king of thinkers was the only thinker that Paladin could respect among this sorry bunch of idiots. The king and the royal family are the only people other than him that try to improve the city. They are not like the other Thinkers that are comfortable with whatever they have, The royal family is always looking for ways to improve and make things better! This is why Paladin respects them.

This floating city was designed by the royal family. Paladin could have designed it himself and he already knew bout ten ways to improve it and make it better than it currently is, but he wouldn’t tell them about that. Let them have this achievement since they are the royal family and let the citizen at least be able to brag about the royal family to other celestials. Paladin had no intention of becoming the king and if he goes and does something unnecessary like improving the floating city, then the citizens will surely try to make him the king and he will become stuck in this place like some sort of animal. Paladin loved his freedom so he would rather just keep a low profile!

After arriving at the large palace, Paladin saw a beautiful woman looking at him through her balcony from a very far distance. This is the third princess of the Thinkers and the woman that has been pursuing Paladin for more than a thousand years. Her name is Sella and she has been trying to make Paladin marry her for ages. It wasn’t because she was trying to use him and she didn’t have any ulterior motive. Paladin has watched her for a long time to see if he would find any ulterior motives and he was surprised when he didn’t. It was just that Sella truly loved Paladin and she was always trying to be close to him. Paladin wasn’t very comfortable around her. He didn’t understand how any Thinker can feel that emotion called love. It didn’t make any sense to him

Immediately Paladin saw Sella he released a sigh in his heart. What sort of woman is this? No matter what he did she would never leave him. Paladin had tried everything to make Sella leave. He had even told her that he was not interested in children like her, but Sella would never agree. Sella was only three thousand years old and she was a child to someone like Paladin that had lived for millions of years. Immediately Sella saw Paladin she brightened up and waved at him from the balcony of her room. Paladin knew that he would only be here for a few moments so he just waved back as he went and landed on her balcony. He asked her what was wrong? Why did she call him?

Sella smiled as she spoke

“Is it wrong to want to talk to the person you love?”

“I just thought I’ll come home to see my king. I didn’t know that you were trying to bring up an array for the city. Why didn’t you ask me? I would have helped,”

The king sighed at Paladin. Paladin understood things far faster than other Thinkers and he was also one of the smartest Celestials you will ever meet. But Paladin needs to stop this smug attitude of his. It was really annoying and it made people avoid him because they would not be able to tolerate it for a long time. The king had no idea why the princess was so infatuated with Paladin. She wasn’t his real daughter, he can’t have children, but she was still like his daughter and he would never understand what she saw in this man.

If other people know that this is Paladin’s real attitude then they won’t like him at all. And the king knows that Paladin doesn’t care about things like that. Paladin was even supposed to be king, but the bastard refused it because he used the excuse that he was busy for the creator. What a load of bullshit. Paladin could handle the creator and being the king of this city at the same time, and he will still have enough time to do his inventions if he wanted. Paladin just hated being tied down to one place.

Paladin grinned when he heard the king sigh and he finally decided to stop playing around as he spoke up with a clear voice.

“We have a problem coming towards us. Have you heard of the chosen names Han Luo?”

The king perked up once he heard the name before he started to laugh. The king waved his hand to the side and Paladin was surprised by the reaction that the king had. Was it even funny at all?

“Han Luo? Why are you suddenly speaking of this? I’ve been hearing a lot of rumors around the city that this Han Luo beat you in the temple. Don’t tell me that you came here because of that? I don’t think revenge is befitting of you,”

Paladin felt his eye twitch in annoyance! Did the king think Paladin was so petty? Why would he even try to get revenge by asking for help? Do you think I’m like those damn cultivators that only know how to call for reinforcement? If I’m getting revenge then it will be through my own power.

“Watch what you’re saying, King. I didn’t come here to be laughed at,”

Paladin was now serious and the king immediately realized that his assumption was wrong! He sat up straight and gained a serious gaze as he looked at Paladin. Paladin was not very happy right now. He came here to warn the king about Han Luo and this is the sort of thanks he gets? Paladin considered leaving, but he decided not to. Even if he didn’t like the king’s reaction, Paladin still needs the king to start preparing for Han Luo. Han Luo is not going to be easy to deal with alone so I need to put as many people between him and me.
