Chapter 189 - 133: The Fiancée of the Crown Prince (Extra for Mu Su Su’s Tips)
Easily defeating Horn, Qin Chu proved his strength, and as he moved within the Imperial City, Wozworth no longer arranged for palace guards to follow him, but the palace still had a large number of guards.
When the guards saw the Hero appear, they stood at attention, but their curious gazes inevitably fell on Karlin; these two Heroes certainly were one oddity after another.
The First Generation Brave would occasionally bring people back, and the Second Generation Brave Warrior did the same, yet even more peculiarly than the First Generation Brave—first, he brought back a giantess and then, in the blink of an eye, a girl.
But this girl was filthy from head to toe, could she be a beggar from somewhere?
The guards’ scrutinizing and suspicious eyes made Karlin feel afraid, she had experienced many such looks filled with disdain, disgust, and exclusion. Subconsciously, she wanted to draw closer to Qin Chu, but felt too dirty to do so and worried that she would soil the Hero’s clothes, so she curled up into a small ball.
Qin Chu glanced at Karlin, then turned his attention to the guards at the door, "Remember this, starting today, Karlin will live here. There will be times when I go out, and you must protect Karlin well. Should anything happen to her, I will inform Wozworth of your dereliction."
Originally, some guards viewed Karlin with contempt, but hearing these words, they immediately put away their scorn. If the Hero complained directly to the Emperor about their negligence, they would not be able to keep their heads on their shoulders.
"It’s okay, Karlin, don’t be afraid."
Qin Chu patted Karlin’s little head, comforting her.
