Chapter 357 - Fourth Prince (3) (1/2)

”Before you say anything. Let me explain first!” The Fourth Prince said quickly.

”I knew what you will decline this. But let me explain first. If, after hearing my explanation, you still want to decline, then that is fine.”

The Fourth Prince had guessed Auron's thought. The first thing that came up to Auron's mind when he knew that the Fourth Prince gave him a village was his secret. It was unconsciously coming up to his mind. He had to protect his secret, so he was going to decline it.

Auron was still weak. If he received this village from the Fourth Prince, it would pique everyone's attention. They would begin to investigate Auron's background. Although there were only a handful of people that knew Auron's secret, he still had fear inside his heart.

Moreover, Auron believed even though he was weak right now, but with his cheat, he would become stronger. Way stronger than ordinary people. At that time, Auron would obviously get a village on his own. So, instead of taking a risk here, he wanted to decline the offer.

But, the Fourth Prince had something to say. Obviously, Auron would listen to him first. There was nothing wrong with listening to a prince's explanation.

”I know you will be afraid that your secret will be exposed. That was why I offered some solutions. I know that these solutions would not eliminate all the possibilities that your secret could be exposed.”

”I introduced you to Uncle Wang because I intended to use him as a cover for your identities. I will spread out a rumor about him being the village's head instead of you. While the real village's head would be you.”

”As Uncle Wang will be used as a cover, I will send him to help you develop the village. When you feel that you have strong enough, you can show yourself to the world.”

”However, I have to tell you something. Although I can lie to the whole world about your identity. I cannot lie to my family. If you accept this offer, I have to tell the truth to my family, especially my father.”

”I will not tell them about your secret, but I need to tell them that I gave the village to you and use Uncle Wang as your cover.”

”I knew they would be suspicious. But, I will try to convince them about your contribution to the expedition. I hope that they will leave the matter alone. That was why I can only help you as far as covering your identity.”

”As you have heard that some people who receive a village from us will get at least some resources to help them build the village. However, I cannot do that. I will not give you anything lest they will be more suspicious. Not only that, but I will also put your village in the most remote place.”

”That is all that I can try to help you. Now, it is your call whether to accept it or not.” The Fourth Prince ended his explanation.

Auron pondered for a minute. It was a difficult choice for him. The temptation from the Fourth Prince was real. However, the risk was also big.

The Fourth Prince saw Auron was pondering. So, he gave Auron some time. He just stood up there and waited for Auron's answer. Meanwhile, Uncle Wang also astonished about this news. The Fourth Prince never told him anything about this.
