Chapter 186.

The Little Prince’s Inheritance

Although she had already received physical affection, Valentina still didn’t want to reveal her true feelings.

So, when she accidentally showed her emotions towards Noah’s hand earlier, she thought she had definitely exposed herself.

But unexpectedly, a miraculous coincidence occurred, and she didn’t expose herself after all.

Since she didn’t, the princess naturally continued to put on a disgusted attitude.

After all, only by showing disgust and dislike could she possibly be pampered.

Now, she was willing to do anything to get more of Noah’s attention.

“Ha… it’s still like this, really terrible.”

After making a low-class, yellow joke, Valentina intentionally pressed her forehead, which didn’t hurt at all, and let out a deep sigh.

“Thank you, this is the best compliment for me.”

Noah smiled evilly, enjoying the princess’s disgusted gaze towards him.

“…Hmph, anyway, this book is a key to investigating the demon tribe. You can take it if you want, I won’t stop you.”

The princess intentionally showed an attitude of not wanting to bother with Noah, directly putting the book back on the shelf, and then changed back into her outerwear, preparing to leave the room.

Since she knew that this sleeveless outfit had no effect on Noah, she didn’t need to continue wearing it. Instead, she put on her outerwear and went out, maybe she could encounter an opportunity to get close to Noah.

“What? You’re leaving just after coming back?”

Noah didn’t take the book, but looked at the princess who was changing clothes with her back towards him, asking about her next move.

“Unlike a certain idle god who takes pleasure in teasing people, I have many things to do, okay?”

Valentina didn’t turn her head, but responded to Noah with a casual tone.

Then, without caring about Noah’s reaction, she walked out of the room by herself.

“Really dare to say that, then I want to see what the princess is going to do.”

Without any surprise, Noah, who was locked in the room, followed her out.

Just like before, he followed her from a few meters behind, gazing at her back with an interesting expression.

This, of course, made Valentina feel delighted, which was exactly what she wanted.

Even without speaking, just being gazed at by Noah made her feel a strong sense of security.

The princess walked ahead, stealing glances at the god she loved behind her, while her mouth curved up slightly due to her successful calculation of Noah.

The two of them walked in the palace, one in front of the other, and for a moment, they fell into an unusual silence.

However, Noah was not as carefree as he seemed.

He gazed at Valentina’s back, actually thinking about what had just happened.

Because earlier, when he pointed to the sentences with emotional descriptions, the first two times were actually pointing to ordinary texts.

At that time, the princess’s state was a bit off.

It was as if she couldn’t hear his voice, intently gazing at something in front of her, and her breathing was rapidly accelerating.

It was just like a nun having a fit of hysteria.

But what was she reacting to?

It couldn’t possibly be his hand, could it?

Noah didn’t think he had any likable elements, and he had been treating the princess with extreme rudeness and coarseness from start to finish.

So, was it that she suddenly saw the defeat scene that should have happened to her but didn’t due to Noah’s interference?

Was the world’s will and the goddess trying to shake Noah’s determination, so they decided to take action against Valentina’s true body?

The current information was insufficient, and Noah was only speculating.

It seemed he needed to observe the princess’s situation again, keeping a close eye on her to avoid any unexpected events.

As Valentina walked ahead, feeling happy because she was being gazed at by Noah.

And Noah, walking behind, was thinking about Valentina’s affairs.

At the end of the corridor, two conspicuous figures of similar height appeared.

Not only did they attract Valentina’s attention, but Noah also noticed their presence.

They were Valentina’s twin siblings, who had almost no drama in the original story.

The third prince, Elliot, and the third princess, Veronica.

Both were around 14 years old, with heights of around 1.55 meters, and were a very beautiful pair of golden-haired twins.

However, the little prince looked like a spoiled brat, with a strong sense of self-confidence in his expression, and he mostly spoke one-sidedly with his sister, showing that he was an outgoing and proactive person.

The little princess looked more introverted, with a soft and weak appearance, occasionally agreeing with her twin brother’s words, and was very cute.

Both of them were dressed formally, like Delia, in white-based, gold-accented noble attire, which clearly showed their royal status.

Valentina, on the other hand, although her clothes were also of high quality, was not wearing a restrictive formal dress, but a black short skirt that clearly showed her leg curves, and her upper body was more like an adventurer’s attire than a noble lady’s.

However, even without the difference in attire, Valentina’s silver hair, which was distinct from the golden hair of other royals, immediately set her apart from the others.

“Who am I supposed to be? Isn’t this Valentina? Has the investigation of the demon tribe ended?”

When the four of them met in the corridor, the first to speak, unsurprisingly, was the little prince Elliot.

His tone was nothing like that of an older brother; it felt more like he was addressing a subordinate, very casual.

“…No, it’s still too early. The demon race is very good at disguising themselves; we can’t even guarantee there aren’t any remnants left in the capital.”

Valentina, accustomed to her younger brother’s casual manner of speaking, simply shook her head in a normal way, responding to the young prince’s question with neither humility nor arrogance.

“What? I thought the great hero who prevented the assassination attempt on the palace would be able to resolve this quickly. Turns out you’re not so impressive after all.”

Upon hearing this, the young prince smiled as if he had been waiting to do so all along—seemingly disappointed, but actually quite pleased.

He was openly mocking Valentina’s abilities.

“Hey, Your Highness, your brother may be a bit better than Prince Mori, but he doesn’t seem that great either. Shouldn’t you give him a slap to make him behave a little?”

Before Valentina could respond, the third person to speak was Noah.

He urged Valentina to take action in a tone that suggested he was merely watching a show.

However, with Noah saying this, the young prince showed no reaction at all, as Noah only allowed Valentina to perceive him.

Hearing Noah’s words, Valentina felt a surge of happiness.

The divine being must have said that because I was being bullied! He cares about me!

She had originally thought her brother was merely an enemy who spoiled her mood.

But now it seemed her brother wasn’t so bad after all!

At least he could play the villain, making the divine being concerned for her!
