Chapter 16: Love at First Sight
The perception of the demigods is powerful; even if they don't use any additional spells, they can easily monitor units of the size of a town just by relying on the resident's blessings on their bodies.
As for the Land of Dreams.
In the next-door unit built two streets from the imperial palace, Hella can occasionally monitor anything around it.
It's a pity that there is a powerful secluded barrier underground in the land of dreams, enough to block Hela's detection.
Therefore, what Hela could perceive before was that shortly after Rhine entered the Land of Dreams, the aura of the evil dragon's body suddenly erupted underground.
However, other than that, Hela needed to learn the details.
Of course, it is enough to understand this step.
The Haiyin Empire is a country with powerful religious forces.
In this country, there is only religion.
That is the strongest human deity - the Crystal Goddess, Order.
In such a country, being branded a heretic is simply the end of the world.
It is almost certain that once the truth is exposed, Prince Rhine's inheritance rights will no longer exist, and he will also face religious trials. There is a high probability that his life will not be saved.
but,
Hela didn't want to make such a big fuss.
This has nothing to do with Rhine,
Hela is not interested in the politics of the Haiyin Empire and has no likes or dislikes towards the prince. Regardless of who is in power, they will not mistreat them.
Even if the prince died, she would not feel any distress.
However...
Now, she has a sister (Sia) who is also involved.
In the end, Hella did not visit the prince.
Instead, she decided to blackmail the prince.
At this time, Rhine had just returned from the Land of Dreams,
After returning to the palace, he separated from Constance, and according to the schedule assigned to him by the palace, he still had a swordsmanship lesson to attend.
And when Rhine was halfway there,
Hela walked towards him with a smile.
Originally, Hela planned to get straight to the point and tell the truth before the prince. The prince had just done something terrible at this time, so she guessed he was naturally nervous. It would be convenient to scare the prince first and then negotiate.
However, a mishap happened.
Hela smiled: "Your Highness Rhine, this afternoon..."
In the middle of the sentence,
The smile on Hela's face froze.
Because the moment Hela saw Rhine,
she didn't know why...
Her heart suddenly trembled like it was getting an electric shock!
Hela found out in surprise.
Today's Prince Rhine is extraordinarily chic and charming,
His light-coloured eyes, short black hair, confident and calm smile, and decent attire are all amazing...
Hela likes it.
In a trance, Hela even forgot her purpose of calling Rhine.
Rhine saw Hela and smiled respectfully: "It's Her Excellency Hela. I heard that you made a triumphant return from the Emerald Plain, and I just wanted to find a chance to visit Your Excellency to clean up the dust for Your Excellency."
"Ah...Your Highness is polite."
Hela was a little incoherent. She didn't know why, but after seeing Rhine, her heartbeat got very fast, and even her brain became challenging to use.
Rhine smiled at Hela, seeing that Hela didn't seem to have anything to say, then exchanged a few words with her and then left.
Stay where Hela stands,
Hela was stunned for a moment.
She touched her cheek, feeling a little surprised.
so hot...
I... blush?
Hela couldn't figure out what had happened for a while. Why did Prince Rhine suddenly become so charming today?
And by the way...
Hella was silent.
"...What did I want to do with Your Highness just now?"
oh!
Right!
I'm here to blackmail the prince! There will be a hush money!
However, Hela turned her head to look at the departing prince. The handsome and straight figure of the prince was gradually fading away, but in Hela's heart, there was still the aftertaste of love at first sight...
Speaking of blackmailing His Royal Highness.
For a moment, she felt... a little unbearable.
never mind,
Change your target.
It was a rare opportunity to make money, of course, Hela couldn't let it go, since she didn't want to blackmail the prince, she couldn't go to the prince.
Hella obviously had no other choice.
Then she can only take my good sisters to blackmail!
