Chapter 40: Invitation

"You mean to say that Knight Kailin has never had a woman before?" 

Looking at her female servant, Olivia looked quite surprised. She could not help but feel surprised.

"Indeed." 

Her female servant was also quite surprised but still nodded, "At the very least, there is no such information."

"How are Knight Kailin's looks?" Olivia asked out of confusion.

"I'm not sure," the female servant shook her head before saying, "But from the information I have, he seems to be quite a handsome man."

"How can a handsome man like that remain pure?" Olivia frowned as a few bad thoughts appeared in her mind.

This fellow, could it be that there was something wrong with his body… or orientation?

However, after thinking about this, she eliminated the first possibility.

After all, since he was a Knight, it was unlikely that there would be something wrong with his body, especially given that he was still so young.

However, for his sexual orientation, that was indeed a possibility.

Olivia thought for a moment to herself.

Even though she did not know much about it, she had heard of men who did not like women and only liked cute males.

She wondered if Knight Kailin was such a person.

After thinking of this possibility, she asked the female servant about this.

However, the answer was again quite surprising.

"Not even men?" Olivia looked quite surprised and felt quite speechless.

Of course, she knew that for such secretive things, it was difficult to dig up information.

She rapped her knuckles on the table and said after a while, "Since it's like this… find an opportunity."

She looked at the female servant and said calmly, "Hold a banquet in my name and invite Kelly.

"Based on what I know, Kailin is good friends with Kelly, right?"

"Yes," the female servant respectfully replied.

"Very well." 

Olivia nodded, "Tell Kelly to bring Kailin no matter what.

"Then also notify Verna's people about this," she said softly. 

Thinking of the problems that Verna had caused recently, she felt a headache coming on, "Don't let her make any more trouble."

It seemed that the things Verna had done recently had made her big sister feel quite troubled.

With this news, hopefully she would be able to calm down for a while.

"Banquet?" Chen Heng looked at Kelly as they walked in the peaceful manor, and he frowned as he said, "Who is it this time?"

"It is a banquet held by Princess Olivia; I heard that not many people were invited."

In front of Chen Heng, Kelly wore black clothes and grinned as he said, "What do you say? Do you want to go together?"

"Princess Olivia…"

He felt quite surprised.

He naturally knew of Princess Olivia.

In fact, it could be said that for those within the Kutu Royal City, there was no one who did not know of her.

She was the eldest daughter of the Kutu Principality's King, and she was his most outstanding daughter.

It was said that she was not only intelligent but also had exceptional talent as a Knight. Even though she was not very old, she was already a powerful Knight and had led her Black Soil Corps in the north to attack neighboring countries. She also held great military power.

Similar to another Prince, she was one of the top contenders for the throne.

With Chen Heng's personality, he had long since done some research on Princess Olivia. He had even made some contingency plans and considered drawing close to her.

However, because Princess Olivia was often not in the Kutu Royal City, even though Chen Heng had various plans, he was unable to carry them out.

This time, this Princess Olivia had suddenly come back.

Chen Heng could not help but wonder why this was.

In that moment, Chen Heng thought of many possibilities, but his expression remained steady as he smiled and said, "I am honored that the Princess would invite me.

"When the time comes, I'll have to trouble you to bring me over."

No matter what, as one of the top contenders for the throne, Princess Olivia had great power.

Even though she did not summon Chen Heng, Chen Heng wanted to find an opportunity to get close to her.

Since he had the opportunity to get to know her, he naturally could not miss it.

"Very good." 

Hearing Chen Heng's reply, Kelly's expression did not change, but he inwardly let out a sigh of relief.

He had been quite worried that Chen Heng would refuse him; if that had happened, he would have been in a terrible position.

With Princess Olivia's personality, since she had asked him to bring Chen Heng, Kelly had to do so no matter what.

Otherwise, the consequences would be quite severe—Princess Olivia did not like useless people.

Thinking about Princess Olivia's face, Kelly could not help but shudder.

They chatted for a bit longer, after which Kelly left.

Looking at Kelly's leaving figure, Chen Heng felt quite strange, and he shook his head as he also left.

After returning to his residence, he came to an empty training area.

There were not many people around, making it seem quite peaceful.

This was a training area that Chen Heng had set up for himself, and ordinarily, only Chen Heng used it and was thus quite empty.

Standing there, he held his sword and swung out waves of sword wind.

Within his body, waves of Life Energy began to gather as Chen Heng moved.

Over the past half a year, under his diligent training, Chen Heng had made great progress in the Knights Breathing Technique.

The effects of the Body Forging Technique and Knights Breathing Technique working together were incredibly good.

According to Corripo, with Chen Heng's current Life Energy and constitution, he had just about reached the benchmark to awaken a Life Seed. Soon, he could try to awaken one through various methods.

This process was quite dangerous, and if he failed, he would lose a lot of his Life Energy. This was irreversible, making it quite a dangerous process.

Once one failed, one would essentially be like that one's entire life and not have many more opportunities.

Ordinarily, in a Knight's life, they only had one or two chances.

    That’s what I’m talking about. In such worlds, with all the magical powers that can be wielded by men regardless of gender, there simply cannot be a sustained patriarchy and denigration of women.
    Very often, I read in magical worlds, where women can be very strong magicians or cultivators, still there is always a king, and a woman can not inherit the throne, despite her strength or talent. This is obvious delusion and such simply cannot be, in such worlds. )) Books like this, just a breath of fresh air. )))
    I think it should be obvious that in such worlds, the throne rights will be held by the strongest and the smartest, worthy regardless of gender. )))

    Apparently I misunderstood something, because Verna says that her mother has brought or been with some men but she thinks they are inferior to the MC
