Chapter 10: Hoping you won’t die too soon
That’s right, this was Lathel’s true way of thinking.
He knew perfectly well that at this very moment, Lucien was certainly working hard in training or seeking some miraculous opportunity to defeat him.
But as for Lathel? He didn’t need to do anything special—just enjoy the life of a prince and claim as many women as possible.
He glanced at the two maids and asked in a gentle voice, "What is Lucien doing right now?"
One of the maids immediately approached, took out a small scroll, and respectfully presented it to him with both hands.
Lathel picked up the scroll, read its contents, and couldn’t help but smile with disdain.
According to the information sent by Catherine’s spies at Carol Academy, Lucien, devastated by the news of Selvia’s marriage to Lathel, had decided to enter Blackskull Forest.
"Blackskull Forest, huh?" Lathel murmured. "There’s a legend there about the Awakening Stone, isn’t there?"
The maid quickly answered, "Yes, Your Highness. There are many rumors that in Blackskull Forest there is a stone known as the Awakening Stone, which can grant the possessor a special ability."
Lathel nodded lightly, handing the scroll back to her. "Keep watching him."
"Yes, Your Highness." The maid took the scroll and hurried out.
