Hero? Are You Worthy?-Chapter 156 - 115 Angelica’s Intelligence (7)_2

"Yes, it was on the third day after the master left."

"What was the content of the oracle?"

Angelica shook her head, her face full of apology, "I’m sorry, I was not able to find out the specific content of the oracle. Saint Monica is extremely secretive about the oracles, but it seems to be related to Asina. The day after receiving the oracle, Saint Monica specifically met with Asina."

Qin Chu didn’t get angry because Angelica had failed to obtain the information. He patted Angelica on the forehead, softly saying, "It’s okay, I have instructed that your life is the most important thing."

Immediately after, Qin Chu carefully pondered the situation. There was indeed a big difference between the second week and the first week; at least during the first week, the Earth Mother Goddess Sect had not received an oracle.

It was highly possible that this change was caused by himself.

But he couldn’t judge what kind of impact this change would bring him.

"Anything else?" After being silent for a while, Qin Chu temporarily set aside the matter of the Earth Mother Goddess Sect’s oracle and asked.

"Everything with Augustus is very calm; he hasn’t done anything special."

Calm?

That old fox was not someone who could calm down easily. The so-called calm was probably just a facade for others.

"Nor has Wozworth done anything against you, master. Apart from preparing to select a Princess from the Royal Family to send to the palace, Lord Wozworth’s attention is more on his eldest son."

"Prince Lance?"

"Correct, Prince Lance," Angelica nodded her small head, her expression growing solemn, "Master, Prince Lance is someone who must be taken seriously. He is very dissatisfied with your and Rose Vesper’s departure from the Imperial City for several days. I heard that he has even publicly expressed a desire to kill you..."

Qin Chu touched his nose.

Indeed.

Though he was innocent, merely taken out of the city by Rose Vesper, for Prince Lance, who was very fond of Rose Vesper and had very strong possessiveness, seeing the woman he liked return late at night after leaving the city with another man for several days, would naturally be furious.

"The relationship between Lord Wozworth and Prince Lance has also become very bad. It is said that Lord Wozworth is already preparing to call Prince Lance’s fiancée from the Duchy, hoping Prince Lance will marry soon and give up on Rose Vesper."

Qin Chu felt slightly amused. As one of the strongest on the Sky Dome Continent, Lord Wozworth was now beset with worries due to his son’s marital affairs.

The struggle between the power of the church and the power of the king has always been intense.

As the highest representative of royal authority, Lord Wozworth would not hope for, nor would he ever allow, his son to marry Rose Vesper.

After all, although this son was very talented in cultivating Fighting Energy and Martial Arts, and could be considered smart, he paled in comparison to the cunning Holy Daughter, Rose Vesper; were they to marry, he would definitely be eaten up without a doubt.

Speaking of Lance’s fiancée, Qin Chu even had some recollection, a lady who was very elegant and incredibly gentle, raised with the strictest education from childhood, striving to be fit for a Princess consort."

Although she had hardly ever met Prince Lance, due to the ideas instilled in her since childhood, she wholeheartedly loved Prince Lance. In the end, she was publicly rejected by Lance in a public setting, where he declared that if he could not marry Rose Vesper, he would rather remain alone for the rest of his life than marry her.

Eighteen years of affection shattered in an instant, and before the eyes of countless nobles and clergy, she suffered such humiliation. This Quasi-princess could not bear it and consumed Night Sleep Flower, falling into an eternal, peaceful slumber.

The death of the Quasi-princess directly sparked a rebellion in the Duchy, leading to the disaster of a civil war for humanity while they faced threats from demons. The Oville Empire suffered the unnecessary loss of hundreds of thousands of lives.

Because of this incident, Qin Chu considered Lance to be an idiot, even more stupid than a pig.

If he had been just an ordinary person or even a minor noble, then Lance could have pursued his own love.

But he was not, he was the Prince, bearing the entire Oville Empire on his shoulders; his marriage could not be swayed by his own emotions. If he could not even understand this, then letting him ascend to the Emperor’s throne would only bring disaster to the Empire.

In fact, Lord Wozworth had already become thoroughly disappointed with his eldest son afterward, preparing to cultivate the Third Prince—a son who, although not as strong as the Prince, was more steady and rational.

"Master, please be careful. Recently, there have started to be some strangers around the palace; although they wear clothes of ordinary nobles, their gait reveals well-trained soldiers. Prince Lance is very impulsive, and he might..." Angelica said softly, "Moreover, Nicholas has had multiple contacts with those people."

Qin Chu understood that Lance was very likely to provoke confrontations and possibly even assassination attempts. From what he knew of Lance, the guy was truly capable of such actions.

After all, to Lance, what happened to the Sky Dome Continent was far less significant than whether or not he could gain Rose Vesper’s favor; in his eyes, Rose Vesper was the most important.

Well, actually, Qin Chu felt that Violet was the most important right now. Her background spoke for itself; even if Asina’s proportions were more exaggerated, there was still a gap in overall scale.

An opponent like Lance was easy to deal with. He wasn’t on the same level as Rose Vesper, Augustus, or Wozworth.

The truly fearsome enemy was the type who hid in the shadows and struck from behind—Qin Chu had experienced this firsthand.

Actually, the Prince had already begun to act; it was just that Angelica hadn’t noticed yet.

Violet, clutching Qin Chu’s other hand, looked straight ahead. Her lips were hidden, but her soft voice carried on the breeze directly to Qin Chu’s ears:

"Seventeen meters behind, there are four tails, Class Thieves, likely assassins."

"There are two people near the window of the hotel on the left."

"Three people inside the clothing store on the right..."

"Judging from the fluctuations in their aura, they are probably around Level 60, average strength..."

Level 60 was considered quite impressive on the Sky Dome Continent, but in Violet’s eyes, it was only average.

Qin Chu’s lips curled up in a slight smile; he did not respond but continued to quietly look ahead on the road.

Not far in front, a middle-aged general in his forties with a full beard, making him look like a stubborn youth, approached at a quick pace with a group of soldiers wrapped in bloody bandages on their heads and arms, with a few even using crutches...
