"First Prince, Hugh Lust Vincias enters the battlefield," Yelled out a man wearing knightly armor.
A young man of inherent handsomeness, golden hair, and golden eyes shining, walked in from the entrance and silently reached the center of the arena. Unlike other days, he didn't have a Monkey with him.
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm While, in the audience seats, already filled with people, royalty, maids, and even knights, they stared at him in obvious respect but with a bit of mirth.
And,
There in the middle of it all roamed a clueless monkey.
The Monkey Prince, the first prince, was believed to be one of the most talented of this generation excluding Lilly, of course, he was respected.
But the Monkey part made him a unique man.
The audience seats got filled with quiet chatter, it was a very special day today, out of the 20 princes and 7 princesses. 13 princes came to watch and 6 princesses came alongside.
It was indeed, a special day.
And of the 13 concubines, 8 of them were seated alongside their sons or daughters, each scrutinizing the first prince.
He was wearing a Golden martial robe and had tied his hair back to help him focus on the battle.
Then, everyone looked towards the other side of the entrance with anticipation, what is the Null prince like?
The time ticked by and the promised time neared, some people started having frowns on their faces; especially, Emma, Anna, and the Blueflame Twins.
Valeria was out of the stage and doing her own business. But Emma had joined the others earlier.
Just as the people were having thoughts of the Null Prince not showing up, a melodious giggle rang out and broke the murmurs.
Everyone's heads turned and their eyes shined.
Shoulder-length black hair, a pair of dark eyes, and an extremely chiseled physique. Harry, slowly walked in from the entrance of the audience area, and on his hands was a woman calmly laying in a princess carry.
She was none other than Lilly, his beloved sister.
And both of them were wearing black and clean royal robes.
The male part of the audience was immediately attracted to Lilly.
Without speaking, Harry took the lead and walked towards his mother's seating with a calm smile.
Everybody turned silent against his slow steps.
Near Emma, Harry gently let his sister stand up on the floor but unlike the onlookers expected, he didn't immediately head for the battlefield but instead, he wrapped his hands around his sister's waist and she closed her eyes.
Harry's face calmly went closer to hers and before all the kingdom's higher-ups, their lips met, and they kissed each other.
Some Young Princes had their eyes widen and their jaws go slack. While some women had starry eyes.
But down below in the Battlefield, Hugh looked on with a dark face. YOU DARE!!
But the Null Prince and his Sister didn't care and their kiss deepened and lasted for several more seconds before they broke it.
After that, Harry said, his voice loud, "I will come back in a bit and we will continue that elsewhere."
Lilly nodded with a red face.
Smiling, Harry turned around and glanced at the First Prince below. Their eyes met, and the others could feel an electric spark in the air.
Bur Harry chuckled and ignored him before looking towards his mother and blinking. Had he been strong enough to kill the King, he would have kissed her too.
He then looked towards the other concubines, 8 of them out of the total 13. 'Man, it is colorful.'
All of them had all sorts of dressing and all of them looked similar in some way. He smiled and greeted, "Hello stepmothers."
The eight of them all looked at him in intrigue, and a grey-haired but young-looking third concubine said, "Hello, nephew."
The others all nodded along with her. All adorning a smile on their faces. And a red-haired woman added, "The thing with your sister was quite a spectacle, young boy."
Harry smiled shyly and scratched his cheek.
The concubines all chuckled, and a yellow-haired lady among them pinched the red hair one in the midst of it all.
'Which of you is the one who poisoned me?' Harry's deep eyes laughed at their faces but they didn't notice. They only saw a young respectful prince.
But deep down, his apathetic self kept scanning each of them and their actions for his potential enemy. But he couldn't find one.
He then looked towards the seat for the King and Queen, they were indeed absent.
And finally, he looked towards the Princesses, and smiled, "How are you, ladies?"
These girls were sure filled with guts, all coming here wearing their pajamas. Even he hasn't thought of doing that.
Who was the instigator of such a fun game?
He really lacked information on their big Family Tree, he had to learn after he unlocks his [world of the mind].
For now, he was ignorant on many sides.
But of course, there were some people he knew among the mix. For example Miwa; he even had sex with her in the disaster timeline after all.
The Princesses blushed due to the shame of wearing such a thing to a big event and looked at one particular princess, a white-haired, blue-eyed woman.
Harry smiled at her and she smiled back.
Then she replied, not out loud but directly into Harry's mind, "I know you barely know all of our names, but Null Prince, let me give you an offer."
Even though surprised, Harry didn't show it and just turned around, but the voice continued, "Defeat the first prince in whatever ways and one of us is yours."
All of the 6 princesses there looked at him in anxiousness. Harry raised an eyebrow and without speaking further, looked towards the 13 princes.
The fuckups were all looking at him with scrutinizing eyes.
He shook his head and ignored them, then walked towards the arena's side, jumping and seating himself on the side rails, he looked at the knight who announced earlier and said, "What are you waiting for? Announce."
The knight straightened up and yelled: "The Null Prince, Harry Lust Vincias has arrived."
Harry chuckled, indeed, still called the Null Prince, huh?
The audience held their breaths and looked down, all of the maids were looking on with starry eyes and all of the butlers were ready with snacks.
Shifting his gaze, it locked onto the Monkey Prince and the boy looked back at him, but Harry again ignored him and made his system pop up.
Indeed, it is time I use all the points I accumulated.
He clicked on the air madly and the spectators looked with wonder, was he mocking the first prince?
Hugh just calmly frowned and closed his eyes in wait. 'Come, come here.'
Whereas Harry felt an intense stream of Watery Wave-like coldness passing through him and breathed out in refreshment.
And with that, his body was about the peak Stage 1 strength he deduced from Bamboo's fight. All his stats had reached 20 straight.
Except his Soul limit that is.
This was the effect of 2 days of hard work.
But he still had 10 points remaining, if this wasn't the limit, he could grow even stronger.
But now, with his new tricks, All attributes at 20, and his kickboxing experience, it was enough to beat a monkey.
He closed the system and cracked his knuckles, he needed a mirror to use DreamWalker and have full control of his strength.
He shook his hand, and a piece of mirror-like armor materialized above his princely clothes, hmm... He looked into it and shifted his mind. All the added strength came under his control.
[Rainbow's Beauty] was a gift to copy clothes.
Clothes in the end seemed to include armor.
He chuckled and jumped down.
The people followed him with their gazes.
Stunned, was the prince a body gifted to dare jump down from 30 meters up?
Their visions blurred and Hugh opened his eyes.
Harry didn't wait and the moment his legs touched the ground and before the ground could tremble, his legs flashed.
It went directly for a kick against Hugh Vincias's head.
Hugh's eyes widened, and Harry's legs went through his head. But Harry only laughed, "Indeed, your speed is much faster than mine."
The afterimage of the first prince vanished and his true self appeared in the distance, and said with a calm tone: "Your speed is not bad for a Body Gifted either."
"Oh, is it?" Harry chuckled and clenched his hands.
His whole body started heating up, he focused his eyes on the prince and said, standing in the proper form, "Come, show me the speed of the fastest first Stage."
Hugh looked at him in disdain, and said in the same calm tone: "Your gift sure is disappointing for a Null who got a gift."
Harry smiled, "Is it?"
A hand touched his face and before Harry could react, he was thrown with tremendous force towards the side walls.
"It is," said the fastest prince, his voice calm.
The slow Knight from the side yelled anxiously, "The Challenged duel between the princes begins!"
