Chapter 1328: Purification
Since they were young, Lory and Lucas were not only taught how to fight and defend themselves but also how to be the leader of the country but since the future king was Lucas, the pressure on Lory wasn’t as much as Lucas after all Lory’s main job was as a supporter and frankly, they didn’t want to make her life any harder than it already was.
Because of that it never crossed her mind that one day she would replace Lucas’s position as the temporary leader of the kingdom. To make matters worse, Lory has already gotten used to being spoiled by Zhao Li Xin, yes, she might help Hei Shen’s problems here and there, but it is not mandatory besides the four King’s Palace do not want to bother Lory too much as well.
As a result, Lory becomes nervous when Fargo asks her to replace Lucas, but she understands there is no other way because, besides Lucas, she is the last royal blood in the kingdom.
After showering Lory changed into more appropriate clothes even though she wasn’t sure there would be anyone else besides the Archknights, but since she was a child she had been taught to dress according to the rules when in the palace environment.
Lory wore a dark gray turtleneck dress and tied her long hair into a low bun. The simple dress perfectly accentuated her small waist and slender figure, making her look feminine yet strong.
Lory walked down the stairs barefoot, carrying a pair of high heels in one hand and holding onto the banister with the other.
The woman looked carefree but she exuded the dignity and pride of a royal princess, something that could only be born, not learned.
Because of that, Zhao Li Xin knew from the first time he met her that she was no ordinary woman, that she was special despite her status as a humble maid at that time, and at that moment he found himself helplessly in love with her right at first sight.
Meanwhile, Lory was too preoccupied with the mountain tasks that are waiting for her so she did not notice a certain man staring at her with fiery eyes.’
Lory threw her shoes on the floor and then raised her hand asking for Zhao Li Xin’s hand, [Help me,]
Zhao Li Xin held Lory’s hand as she put on her shoes, after she finished she stomped her shoes on the floor for a while a moment later her forehead creased in dissatisfaction as she felt uncomfortable wearing high heels again after so long.
