Chapter 101: 101, Princess’s favorability increases, main storyline Chapter 14_1

Translator: 549690339

Deep inside the manor, in one of the reception rooms, Su Yu saw Princess

Alyssa.

It was as if Alyssa had just taken a bath, wearing her snow-white loungewear.

No emblematic headpiece adorned her head, and her hair was loosely draped over her shoulders instead.

She did not resemble the dignified princess right now, but adopted more of a girl-next-door aura instead.

Alyssa sat as the master of the hall, cradling Cat Morning Star in her arms, looking a bit tired.

“Your Highness, what important matter do you have that you call me over this late?”

Upon entering the hall, Su Yu immediately paid respects to the princess.

“You came!”

Seeing Su Yu, the princess perked up a little.

She rose from her seat and slowly walked towards Su Yu.

Cat Morning Star opened its eyes from inside Alyssa’s embrace.

Sweeping with its paw, a semi-transparent shield enveloped both Su Yu and

Alyssa.

Of course, Su Yu recognized this shield.

[Sound Barrier].

It appeared that Alyssa had something important to say.

Alyssa sauntered up to Su Yu, stopping about a meter away from him.

This was the first time Su Yu had spoken with the princess at such close proximity.

So close, he could even feel the princess’s breath.

Yet, the princess did not speak.

She merely stood in front of Su Yu, her sparkling eyes surveying him.

Su Yu found the princess’s behavior a bit strange. What exactly was wrong with the princess today?

Had she suddenly taken a liking to him?

This was impossible, as the favorability level hadn’t increased.

If this wasn’t the case, what was the reason?

Su Yu couldn’t find out.

Since he couldn’t figure it out, he decided to stop pondering.

Su Yu stood unmoving, maintaining his respectful posture.

About a minute later, Princess Alyssa finally sighed lightly: “Too weak.”

“Too weak? You’re referring to…” Su Yu exhaled, glad that the princess had finally spoken.

“Your power, it’s too weak.”

The princess turned her back towards Su Yu and slowly walked back towards the head seat, “If your power reached above the fifth order, you could provide me with much greater help.”

“Every person’s power increases gradually.” Su Yu spoke with a small smile, “I might be weak now, but just as a humble caterpillar transforms into a butterfly, I will stand at the peak of the world one day, overlooking the earth!”

Err, that perhaps sounded a bit naive, Su Yu quickly reflected.

But then:

“Ding! [Princess Alyssa’s] favorability towards you has increased by 2 points, and it has risen to ‘indifferent’.’

“Ding! Congratulations, you have gained 3 World Prestige points.”

Su Yu was slightly surprised, who would have thought his naive words would win him Alyssa’s favor?

In addition,

“Princess’s favor astrally increases ‘World Prestige’! Tina, look at her!”

Su Yu started speaking of Tina, who was far away in Orleans City.

If Tina’s favorability could increase World Prestige, he would have gained his own fiefdom, and enjoyed a warm home with his wife and kids long ago.

No wait, he didn’t have a wife.

Su Yu began to drift in thought.

Having returned to her seat, the princess asked, “Nemesis, regarding this morning’s negotiation, do you have any opinions?”

It wasn’t until then that she started getting down to business.

Hearing the princess mention the morning negotiation, Su Yu sighed in relief.

Thankfully, he had conducted a detailed analysis of the entire negotiation process.

If he was like the other players who merely rushed through the tasks without paying attention to the story, and couldn’t answer, the favorability that the princess increased might just be lost.

Su Yu gathered his thoughts and gave his speculation:

“From my observations, Your Highness, you were just buying time during the negotiation. On one hand, you were waiting for the army at Forest City to assemble, on the other hand…”

“Not just you, Duke Seifer was also buying time, intending to…”

“Coincidentally, Duke Landilus is also buying time. If my judgment is correct, he will attack you on your return journey to Goldfinch City…”

Su Yu explained his analysis in detail.

Listening to Su Yu’s analysis, the princess’s eyes gradually began to light up, showing a look of appreciation.

Although Su Yu’s abilities were quite unremarkable, his analytical skills were truly admirable. His speculation about her movements and purpose coincided perfectly with her own intentions. Was this the foretelling scholar’s greatest strength?

Even Cat Morning Star peeked out from the princess’s embrace, looking at Su

The human in front of it seemed quite young, but he seemed to have some ability.

It might be useful for something in the future…

Hearing Su Yu’s analysis, the princess nodded in agreement: “Correct, just as you have stated, we are indeed buying time.”

“How long are you planning to stall?”

“Ideally, we would stall for half a month.” The princess answered: “After half a month, the Forest City’s assembly will be complete, and my goal would be accomplished.”

“Half a month?” Su Yu rubbed his chin, falling into thought.

Half a month wasn’t a long time.

Yet, half a month was sufficient for Duke Landilus to make his preparations.

When they returned to Goldfinch City, there was bound to be a major battle, the scene of battle would inevitably be much more difficult than the previous one.

Alyssa, unaware of Su Yu’s thoughts, continued to speak, “But, we can’t sit idle during this half month… Nemesis, can I trust you?”

“Of course, I’m always your staunchest ally.” Su Yu responded promptly. “Very well! Then, let me tell you the real reason why I called you here today.” The princess spoke:

“In fact, after we entered the city, we have been under the strict surveillance of

Duke Seifer. It is difficult for me to stay in contact with my undercover agent in Maple City.”

“But it’s different with you. You are an adventurer from another world and may have some unknown methods to dodge Duke Seifer’s surveillance. Therefore, I need your help to deliver this letter to a man named Colin Phil who lives at 213

Green Valley Street.”

As she spoke, she picked up a beautifully packaged letter from the table next to her.

“Ding! Your main line has been updated! [Glory of the Goldfinch Empire

(14/100)].”

“Mission requirements: Deliver the princess’s letter to Colin Phil at 213 Green

Valley Street.”

“Mission reward: [Primary Energy Elixir (Gold)] X1, Experience Points X500.” “A golden potion!” Su Yu’s eyes lit up.

[Primary Energy Elixir] is a universal recovery potion made from spiritual energy.

Mages can use it to restore mana, while warriors can use it to restore rage, and likewise, other professions can use it as well.

Most significantly though, this potion can be taken back to reality!

Anything that can be taken back to reality has to be good.

“Okay, Your Highness, I will definitely complete the mission.” Su Yu promised earnestly.

“Alright, then I’ll wait for your message here.” The princess nodded..
