Chapter 81 - 3.21 Calm Him Down
Lu Yizhou was coming out of the principal’s office after discussing the Flower Festival that would be held in a few weeks time in the Alaze Kingdom. It was an annual festival that ran for one full week with a long list of events such as the night market, auction, games but it wasn’t the one which was enough to draw the attention of the Crown Prince of Versatine Kingdom. It was the main event: Arena Fighting. A one-on-one freestyle battle between all Alphas throughout the kingdom. Everyone whose secondary gender had manifested was eligible to join and more often than not, the event would become an opportunity for the Emperor to recruit Alphas into his Elite Guards. Citizens could also bet on the winner and make fortune from it. Arena Fighting was the most awaited and popular event in the Flower Festival and also one of the main plots in the original world.
Ryan, the main protagonist, would enter this event, defeating every single Alpha in the kingdom with his wits, charm and graceful strength, earning him not only the admiration of many omegas but also the Emperor and Princess Rosemane’s attention. It was through the event that Ryan would be recruited into the Elite Guard after he graduated from school and became Rosemane’s personal bodyguard. The two’s love story started from there on. The dignified Princess and her loyal guard, it was a marvelous story of two individuals with different status full of plot twists, a tear jerker through and through.
Altair’s father, the Emperor of Versatine Kingdom, demanded him to join the event to promote their kingdom’s fighting style in Alaze. That was also what the Principal relay to him earlier. This event was also suitable to announce the Crown Prince’s identity and create the exchange student program between Alaze and Versatine. It was like throwing two birds with one stone. Being the nonchalant beastman he was, the original Altair had no plan to follow his Emperor father’s demand. He disliked attention and loathed crowds with every fibre of his body. Despite this event being the easiest way to build cooperation between two kingdoms, he opted to take the long measure instead for his own convenience. That’s why his stay in Alaze was suspended until months otherwise he could already leave after around a month. In the end, no one even realized that he was the Crown Prince of another kingdom. He came and went silently, never leaving any traces.
Lu Yizhou was contemplating his choices; he certainly had no problem joining with the mere purpose of being the main protagonist’s stumbling stone. He was confident in his own strength and he got the feeling that defeating the main protagonist would offer him immense satisfaction. Talk about him being the villain but it was a small price after the horrendous crime Ryan had done to Oliver in the original plot.
If the main protagonist was truly as exceptional as the original plot made him out to be, this would just be a small obstacle in his road to supremacy, no? However, Lu Yizhou knew for certain that if he did everything too quickly, the Emperor of Versatine would be satisfied with Altair’s performance and demand him to move from one kingdom to another to do the same thing as he did in Alaze.
If that happened then...he would have no excuse to stay by Oliver’s side.
[666: Just bond with him then! If you’re his Alpha then you have every right to stay in Alaze as long as you want!]
Lu Yizhou pinched his brows, sighing.
[666: Honestly bzzz....bzzz... 666 doesn’t understand why Host is hesitating. Do you mind forming a bond with Oliver?]
