Chapter 446: Pick Only One Treasure (1/2)
”What a surprise. I didn't expect to see a royal blood here in my palace.” The skeleton's voice was cold and deep, ”What does the princess have to do in my place?”
The skeleton was truly stumped. After all, this type was he who hated the most! For turning his haven upside down, for making things worse for them who only wanted independency. That family deserved a fate worse than death!
The princess couldn't help but feel the thick killing intent that the skeleton was directing towards her. It made her spine feel cold as a chill was crawling under her skin. It was nerve-wracking feeling, but all she could was stand there. After all, she was in the deep territory of the skeleton. No matter what, she wouldn't be able to escape here unless Jin Rou helped her to do so.
Jin Rou looked at the princess and the skeleton with a smile, ”Indeed, this is Shale Prime. The current princess of the imperial family. But I advise you not to put your hatred on her. After all, she is innocent as before those things happened to you, she is not yet existing.”
If Shale was born before the incident happened, Jin Rou wouldn't try to help the princess and let the skeleton uphold his grievances. Unfortunately, it wasn't the case as the princess was innocent and didn't know anything of it. Thus, he was helping her right now.
The princess looked at Jin Rou with puzzled expression. She didn't expect that the last man she expected to help her was actually helping her right now. She couldn't help but thought what might be the benefits in it that he was willing to put a word for her?
After hearing this, the skeleton calmed down and retracted his killing intent. The other party was right, the woman was innocent and didn't know anything about what happened. So he shouldn't be unreasonable. Furthermore, he didn't want to offend this young man if it's possible. After all, Jin Rou had the capability to turn this place into ashes with his power!
The princess sighed in relief after crossing the death bridge safely. For a second, she thought that she's going to die here pointlessly.
”Thank you for understanding, King Uranasia.” Jin Rou bowed politely. It was a formal etiquette to show respect towards a certain high ranking person.
”No need for the formal gestures.” The king waved his skeleton hand yet he was feeling great deep inside. After all, a man of this level had actually shown respect towards him, ”Anyway, since you have reached this place, I am giving one item that you want here inside. For the both of you, you can choose one each.”
Then, countless treasures appeared surrounding this throne room. They were in a sealing formation of a grid, binding each treasure by one perfect square.
”Pick only one, please.” The skeleton pleaded, ”This place only let a person take one item, if it's more than that, I'm afraid that I don't know what will happen. After all, no one has yet to dare to do it.”
