Chapter 475 - Courting Methods (2/2)

The only reason he got to know this young master was because he initially used is magic to brainwash the young mans soldiers. In order to blend in with the people here, he had no choice. Rhys did debate which identity he should use, he could have used a nobles identity. But if anybody pried and asked too many questions, the situation would be very bad for him. That was why he chose the identity of a solider.

But this man saw him, the young heir of the family. Wei sighed. ”Is you relationship with the Second Princess not going well?”

Rhys frowned when he heard those words. Indeed he understood why Wei would think so. His gaze landed on the stack of colorful stack of books Wei brought him. Books on how to succeed in love, how to get along with your beloved, how to chase the girl and how to make her happy..

He knew it was futile reading such things. These books will only suggest something superficial. Lyn would see right through him, if he used the methods in these books. But what else could he do?

”I have tried everything on that woman and yet she isnt budging.”

Wei rolled his eyes. ”Are you sure? I bumped into her on my way here, and she kept looking over at the window to this room and was blushing.”

Huh?

”I dont know-- well since it is you I can pretty much guess what you tried to do to her. But it seems to work.”

Rhys shook his head and explained everything that has happened the last few days. He tried to leave out a few things but Wei saw right through him.

”First of all, let me confirm the girls age..”

”Seventeen.”

”Sir Rhys, I understand that the Sound Kingdom may have different rules but here in the Mist Kingdom…”

”I know.” Rhys interjected. ”It is a rule for the first class elite and even more so for the royal family.” When Rhys learned of this rule recently, he felt very frustrated. He then recalled his past actions towards her and regretted everything.

It is easy to forget her age because of her appearance but that does not mean he should dismiss it.

”There is no book in this pile or any in the empire that could tame a beast like you.” Wei shook his head. ”Honestly, did you not tell me that you were her lover in your past lives?”

At first Rhys only played around with this theory, he could not be too sure. But as more time passed by, the more Rhys realized that Lyn truly resembled that woman. He picked up one of the books. ”So, you believed me when I told you that?”

”How can I not believe you? The magic you used on my soldiers is a magic from several decades ago.” Wei shook his head. ”Don't tell me you use that magic in public?”

”I do.”

Wei slapped his face with his hands. ”Good grief..and you wonder why people are wary when you make a move?”

Rhys looked at him with a skeptical expression on his face. He did not think about this before.

Why do I have to hide?

For the longest time he had that mind set but listening to Wei speaking, he now understood that it would be troublesome if others found out. If they found he had his memories of his past life, then they would use him as a tool for war.
