My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start

Chapter 431: The Key To The Great Library

“That’s right. Antonio and I are doing that so that Watson can interact more with the noblemen and expand his network in the kingdom for the future. As for waking him up, we’re doing it so that he can seize the time to go to the Royal Academy to train and avoid slacking off. Everything is for his own good,” Reid said.

Samuel nodded.

“Master!”

At that moment, Watson’s tender voice came from behind Reid. He could not help but tremble as he turned his head. He saw Watson behind him, and his eyebrows twitched. He was staring at him with a strange expression as if he was trying to hold back something.

“Watson, what’s wrong? Did the two ladies who just entered your room do something to make you angry?”

“They did not make me angry. On the contrary, Master, I can’t accept what you’re doing right now! Didn’t I tell you yesterday that I would not see anyone no matter who came? It’s fine if you did not want to help, but why did you take the initiative to send an outsider into my room?”

“Antonio and I weren’t too clear about that. Who did you tell? ”

“Senior Samuel.”

“Samuel, what’s wrong with you? Did Watson tell you that he was tired and could not see any guests? Why did you let so many people in? Apologize to your junior brother.”

Reid frowned and turned to scold Samuel, who was holding the two holy relics. He was stunned. He was at a loss. Reid gave him two holy relics to force him to agree. Why did he blame him?

“Master Reid, Master Antonio, please postpone the quarrel between you guys! I brought the members of the Saint Laurent family here because I had something important to tell Watson. Time is limited. Can you let us talk to Watson first?”

After watching for a while, among the many nobles waiting in front of Reid, the leader, an old woman wearing a veil and a purple dress, laughed and interrupted Reid’s reprimand of Samuel. In their eyes, that time, it was clearly Reid and Antonio who had used Watson to receive a wave of gifts. However, after Watson discovered them, they did not want to bear Watson’s anger, so they could only blame Samuel.

None of that was important to them. What was important was that after the competition yesterday, the head of the Saint Laurent family, the old woman in front of him, asked his subordinates to investigate Watson’s matter. According to their investigations, they had really found some important things, forcing them to come to the Sword Saint’s courtyard to see Watson.

“Madam Ophelia, what you said makes sense.” Antonio nodded to the old woman in front of him, then looked at Watson. “Watson, let’s put our matters aside for now. This is Madam Ophelia. She is the current head of the Saint Laurent family. She came to see you today because she has something very important to tell you. The room has been prepared. The two of you can have a good chat.”

“Yes, Master.”

Watson agreed. He sized up the woman named Ophelia. Through the veil, he could still see a trace of familiarity on her face. At the same time, the way Ophelia looked at him made him feel warm.

Was it because they shared the same blood?

Watson could not help but think about that. He knew that his father, Edward Garry, had committed some unforgivable sin, so he was expelled from the Saint Laurent family and was exiled to the border, and that old woman in front of him was very likely to be his father’s relative.

Watson had a vague guess as to what the Saint Laurent family’s head wanted to talk to him about. Under Samuel’s lead, they came to an empty room in the Sword Saint’s courtyard. There were more than ten experts from the Saint Laurent family guarding outside.

After the door closed, Ophelia walked to the sofa in the middle of the room and sat down. She pointed at the opposite side and said, “Watson, you sit down too.”

“I wonder what Madam Ophelia wants to talk to me about?” Watson asked after sitting down.

“A genius like you should have a certain guess as to why I came to find you. Why do you think I came to find you?” As Ophelia removed the veil that had been covering her face, she revealed a white-haired head with a ruddy face and a pair of sky-blue eyes as deep as the ocean.

“Edward is my son, and I am your grandmother. Is he well, living at the border? ”

As expected, she was here to find her family.

Watson sighed in his heart. “Father is well. Don’t worry, Madam Ophelia.”

Watson did not know what mistakes his father had made to be expelled. No matter how Watson asked Edward, he would not say anything. Of course, that was not important because he only needed to know that after his father was expelled, the Saint Laurents did not look for him again. That was enough.

Before he awakened the system, his family had lived on a chicken farm. They lived a miserable life where they could only drink a bowl of soup a week. They also had to face the jealousy of other farmers. Where was the Saint Laurent family at that time?

Even though he had awakened the system, the dangers he faced were even more terrifying. Nightingale, an assassin sent by the border count, had looked for him. There was also the greedy Mage Guild that wanted to attack Blackmoon Castle. Even Antonio wanted to eliminate them in the beginning. Where was the Saint Laurent family then?

Since the Saint Laurent family had given up on them, to Watson, even if they were related by blood, they were only strangers. That was why he did not look at the Saint Laurent family when he went to the royal city; he had not paid any attention to them.

At that moment, after seeing his outstanding performance in the exhibition competition and knowing that he had obtained the title of the kingdom’s number one genius, the Saint Laurent family’s matriarch had looked for him. Her motive was very obvious.

“Watson, I know that you have a grudge against me and the Saint Laurent family for letting your father live at the border for such a long time without caring about anything. However, we also have our own difficulties! After all, the order your father received back then was sent by His Majesty. Instead of carrying out the mission, he let go of the target. Under such circumstances, the Saint Laurent family and I have no way to protect him, let alone visit him. Otherwise, His Majesty would be furious. Your father’s life was spared because my husband and I pleaded with the King.

“We have four children. Your father, Edward, is the youngest! The other three of his older brothers are not as outstanding as him. Therefore, when my husband was still alive, he loved Edward the most. Unfortunately, after Edward made a mistake and left, my husband quickly died of depression. I inherited his position! Forgive me for locating you so late. It was our fault that the Saint Laurent family did not let Edward stay, but now we want to make up for it. Can you give us a chance to make up for it, Watson?”

Ophelia spoke passionately, especially when she recounted her husband’s death, she took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears at the corner of her eyes.

When a normal person faced such a narration, they would definitely be moved to the point of sympathy. However, it did not work with Watson. He was not an average youth but a 30-year-old adult. He had often seen that kind of method used to incite the other party’s feelings.

“Madam Ophelia, there’s no need to say those words. Just tell me your purpose. What do you want?”

“Watson, I want you to return to the Saint Laurent family and become a part of us once again! If you agree, we can even bring your father and your family back to the Saint Laurent family. I’ll negotiate with the family and cancel the judgment against your father. What do you think?”

“I think it’s fine.” Watson thought for a moment and nodded.

Ophelia’s face lit up. Unfortunately, the smile on her face did not last long; it stiffened when Watson said, “I can join the Saint Laurent family. But I want 100 holy relics.”

“A hundred holy relics? Watson, did I hear wrongly? We don’t have that many. We are sincere in asking for your return. Also, I’m your grandmother. Do you think it’s appropriate to propose conditions to me?”

“Why not? In my opinion, a hundred holy relics are not much. Furthermore, that is only the price for me to return to the Saint Laurent family. If you want me to address you as my grandmother or the other uncles and aunties of the Saint Laurent family, you’ll have to pay an additional price. Of course, you can choose not to pay. If that’s the case, I think joining Ptolemy or the Campbell family would be a better choice. They should be much more generous than the Saint Laurent family.”

Watson’s words made Ophelia’s eyes widen. She did not know what to say to refute him.

Boom!

At that moment, the door was pushed open. A burly middle-aged man with brown hair and a mustache entered the room, his angry blue eyes locked onto Watson.

“Mother, I told you not to tell Watson that. Back then, my good-for-nothing brother abandoned the Saint Laurent family because of a woman. Now, this little brat is just like him. He doesn’t know etiquette, righteousness, and shame. He asked for benefits from the Saint Laurent family, his own family! If you want to pay him 100 holy relics, you might as well expel him from the family. After all, our family already has Nia.”

“This is—”

The man looked somewhat similar to his father but had a sturdier appearance and build.

“His name is Carlos. He’s my eldest son and also your father’s eldest brother. You should call him Uncle.” Watson immediately understood why that man was so angry with him.

“Mother, why are you explaining so much to the little brat?”

The man named Carlos came in front of Watson, grabbed his collar, and pulled him from the sofa. He said fiercely, “Little Brat, I’m warning you. Don’t even think about hitting on my daughter. Otherwise, I’ll kill you. Do you understand?”

“Yes, Master Carlos. In fact, I’m not the one thinking about your daughter. She’s the one who’s thinking about me. If you can restrain her and make her stop looking for me, then I’ll be very grateful.”

“You detestable kid, what nonsense are you talking about? How could my daughter fall for a guy like you? Today, I’m going to teach you a lesson and make you understand that some words can’t be said carelessly.”

Carlos stretched his fist outward to punch Watson’s face. However, the moment he stretched his fist, a thin layer of solid ice condensed around it. That caused his body to freeze, and he turned his head. Behind him, Nia, who was in a maid uniform, slowly walked into the room from the outside. Along the way, the members of the Saint Laurent family revealed fear on their faces. No one dared to stop her.

“Father, what are you doing?”

“Nia, my sweetheart. Father, I’m helping you to teach this impolite brat a lesson. He said that you’d taken a fancy to him. I won’t let him off easily after making such a joke! Don’t worry. I don’t need you to make a move. I can defeat him myself.” Carlos doted and fawned over his daughter.

“Father, just as Watson said, he is my master now. I took the initiative to ask him for that! If you want to attack Watson, even if you are my father, I will do my best to stop you.” Nia reached out with her right hand. A faint chill appeared in her palm, which made Carlos’ eyes flash with a trace of fear. “Nia, you want to attack me because of an outsider? As your father, I am very sad.”

Compared to fear, Carlos’ expression was more of a disappointment. He ignored her. After entering the room, Nia went straight to Watson’s side and smoothed the corner of Watson’s clothes, which had become wrinkled because of Carlos. “Master, are you hurt?”

“I’m fine.”

Then, Watson turned around and walked out of the door. Without turning his head, he said, “Let’s go, Nia. Otherwise, we won’t be able to make it to the Royal Academy’s opening ceremony! As for you, Madam Ophelia, remember the conditions I said. I want 150 holy relics, not a single one less.”

“Watson, you said 100 holy relics! How did it become 150?” Ophelia could not help but exclaim.

“Because of him.”

Watson pointed at Carlos and then left with Nia.

“That detestable brat!” After being called by Watson and adding 50 holy relics as bargaining chips, Carlos was so angry that his face turned ashen. He clenched his teeth tightly. “Mother, that fellow is not sincere about cooperating with our Saint Laurent family at all. I suggest that we find an opportunity to simply kill him so that he won’t be so arrogant in front of us! Or, we can use the excuse of treating him to a meal as an excuse to poison the food and control him secretly. If he doesn’t cooperate, we won’t give him the antidote. When the time comes, let’s see if he still dares to make such excessive demands.”

“Shut up, Carlos! Killing Watson and poisoning him? How did you come up with so many stupid ideas? You should understand how terrifying Watson’s strength is if he can defeat Nia. Do you think those things are useful to him? Also, Watson is now the Princess’ fiancé, one of the future heirs to the kingdom. If the King finds out that we made a move on Watson, what do you think he’ll do?”

“Then what should we do?”

“What else can we do? Watson wants 150 holy relics. Even if the Saint Laurent family has to sell everything, we must get our hands on those holy relics! We must get Watson to join our family. With Watson’s ability and the assistance of the Saint Laurent family, in the future, it won’t be difficult for him to defeat the other princes and become the true heir of this kingdom. At that time, the Holy Dragon Kingdom will have a Saint Laurent as the King. How glorious will that be?”

Watching Watson leave, Ophelia could not help but clench her fists, her eyes flickering.

“In the past, due to a moment of carelessness, I let Edward go, causing the Saint Laurent family to lose a genius. That matter has already caused me some regret. This time, I won’t let you go again, Watson.”

….

At the Royal Academy.

After discussing it with Ophelia, Watson immediately went back to change his clothes, preparing to head to the Royal Academy. Accompanying him were the three beauties—Kiana, Nia, and Christina.

Initially, Nia was wearing a maid’s outfit, but that outfit was too eye-catching. Under Watson’s firm request, Nia changed her maid’s outfit into a pale yellow dress. That egg-yolk dress was Christina’s previous outfit, and it fitted Nia perfectly.

Christina was in a white robe, Nia was in a yellow dress, and Kaia was in a golden-red dress. The three women were of different ages, but they were like different kinds of flowers, competing for Watson’s attention. The entire street became bright and beautiful. Many passersby turned their heads and looked at the three beauties, unable to recover from their daze for a long time.

“That is Princess Kiana, right? I just went to the Royal Academy yesterday to watch the competition. Princess Kiana ran to the stage after the competition and even kissed Watson!”

“The girl next to her is Nia. As expected of the strongest genius in the kingdom, Watson. He has been hugging both of them since early in the morning. It’s really enviable.”

“Who is the last woman beside Watson? She looks very mature. In terms of looks, she doesn’t seem to be inferior to Miss Nia and Miss Kiana.”

“How can you be so ignorant? That person is the daughter of the current Sword Saint, Miss Christina, nicknamed the Swordmistress. It is said that she has been living with Watson for a very long time. Perhaps they have a relationship too! It seems like Watson has many more women who like him. If only I had half of his strength. Perhaps I could attract one or two women as well.”

The discussions of the passersby around entered Watson’s ears, making him not know whether to laugh or cry. Only a day had passed, and in the eyes of everyone, he was already a playboy. In order to change that image, he subconsciously teleported a few meters to the side, pulling a certain distance away from the girls.

Who would have thought that just as he teleported out, his body would bump into something soft?

“Ah, who suddenly appeared and scared me? Running so fast on the streets of the capital, don’t you have eyes? If you don’t need eyes, I can help you dig them out.” Following the girl’s rebuke, Watson turned his head and apologized. When he saw the face of the person behind him, he was stunned.

“Miss Lily?”

“What? Watson?” Rubbing her chest, Lily saw the person’s face and heaved a sigh of relief. Her angry expression eased a little.

Charlotte, who was beside Lily, saw Watson and came over to greet him with a smile. “Watson, Lily is in a bad temper today. Please don’t take it to heart.”

“Bad temper? What’s wrong with Miss Lily?”

“After you and Nia fought yesterday, His Majesty arranged for us to start a new round of matches to set the ranking. In the end, I got fifth place, and Lily got the eighth place. She’s not happy.”

Charlotte pretended to be relaxed. As soon as she finished speaking, Lily rushed in front of her and tried to cover her mouth with her hand. She looked a little annoyed. “Really, Charlotte, why did you tell Watson about that? The reason I got eighth place was not that I was not strong enough. It was all because of that monster, Nia. Yesterday, she used an unknown method to freeze me, which affected my performance.”

After Watson left yesterday, the kingdom immediately identified Watson as the strongest genius in the kingdom. Nia got second place. After a series of battles, Augustus successfully got third place, Christina was fourth place, and Charlotte was fifth place. Lily did not know how she performed so abnormally, but she was defeated by two platinum-tier weapon users and only obtained eighth place. It was also worth mentioning that Casey got tenth place, but that was not why Lily was unhappy.

“Did I do something bad?”

As soon as Lily’s voice fell, Nia, who was not far from Watson, walked forward. Seeing Nia’s appearance, Lily’s expression changed. She exclaimed, “You… Why are you with Watson?”

It was not only Lily but Charlotte’s expression changed as well. With a conflicted expression, she nodded. “Greetings, Sister Nia.”

After the competition, she heard that Nia had a fight with her family. Nia wanted to see Watson, but the Saint Laurent family refused her wish. Nia injured a few of them and forced her way out. She heard that that morning, Madam Ophelia had personally brought people to the Sword Saint’s courtyard. She did not know if it was because of Nia that she wanted to question Watson.

“Hey, Watson, aren’t we going to the Royal Academy? Then let’s not chat on the road. Let’s hurry up and leave.” Kiana also reached Watson’s side and grabbed his hand in an attempt to lead him away. That action made Charlotte and Lily’s eyes widen.

“Not only is Sister Nia here but the Princess and Lady Swordmistress are also here.”

Christina nodded slightly, indicating that she had seen them. Meanwhile, Kiana snorted coldly and ignored the two girls. In Kiana’s eyes, any beautiful woman who appeared beside Watson, anyone between the ages of one to eighty years old, was her enemy.

“If I did anything excessive in yesterday’s competition and made you feel unhappy, I apologize,” Nia said softly. Lily waved her hand awkwardly since Kiana was present. “Forget it, forget it. Let bygones be bygones. The reason I did not get a good result yesterday is also related to my lack of strength! If I had half of yours or Watson’s strength, even if I made a mistake, I would still be able to get into the top three.”

As they spoke, the group walked forward. The number of people in the group changed from four to six, which was still increasing.

“Excuse me, are you Young Master Watson? I saw yesterday’s match. It was too exciting. My name is Camille. Can you give me an autograph?” A girl wearing a Royal Academy uniform asked. She looked about the same age as Watson. She held a piece of parchment in her hand and looked at Watson with a fervent gaze.

“And me, I’m also a new student at the Royal Academy. Furthermore, I’m a member of the warrior department; I’m from the same department as Young Master Watson.”

There were more than ten noble girls following behind the young girl. They surrounded Watson while chattering, pushing Kiana and the others who were originally beside him to the side. That made Kiana so angry that she stomped her feet. “One, two, three…twelve! Twelve unknown women are surrounding Watson. I’m Watson’s fiancée. Are they looking down on me? Don’t let me find out which family those people belong to. Otherwise, I will definitely teach them a lesson.”

Under the embrace of the many beautiful girls, the passersby on the surrounding streets looked at Watson with even more envy. They wished they could switch places with Watson and let them take over Watson’s place to enjoy the feeling of being surrounded by beautiful women.

Finally, Watson arrived at the Royal Academy entrance. As soon as he entered the academy, a large group of students immediately rushed out. Those students were both male and female, and among them, there was no shortage of teachers from the academy. Their eyes were filled with joy as they looked at Watson.

“Watson, you are finally here. As the most outstanding talent in the Royal Academy in the past hundred years, your arrival will definitely allow the academy to rise to a higher level.”

“Even His Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time! Today is the opening ceremony, and at the same time, it is also a ceremony to award you and many other geniuses. Let’s hurry over.”

Under the escort of many students and teachers, Watson and the others quickly arrived at the inner part of the academy. The auditorium was decorated with bright gold and jade, and the floor was covered with a red carpet. The seats were gradually filled with people from the academy. Everyone’s eyes were burning with passion, and in front of them was a spacious platform. King Landhar III sat on a throne on the platform, and ten geniuses stood in front of him.

All those geniuses were part of the 16 geniuses who entered the finals yesterday. Watson saw Augustus, Casey, and Lana, the girl named Nero, who Augustus defeated, and a few platinum-tier weapon emissaries selected by King Landhar III.

At that moment, those geniuses were led by Augustus to stand in front of King Landhar III. They all puffed out their chests and looked proud. Obviously, becoming one of the 16 geniuses in the kingdom was a very happy thing.

While Watson was looking at them, those geniuses also noticed Watson and the others’ arrival. Their proud expressions were somewhat restrained. In their eyes, Watson was unquestionably the strongest. In front of Watson, they were like green leaves against bright flowers. Among them, Augustus was looking at Watson with anger in his eyes.

He wanted to team up with Watson to defeat Nia. In the end, Watson did not listen to him. As a result, the Campbell family’s holy relic was wiped out. Under McGee’s fierce resistance, Armand did not dare to use any more holy relics on him. The weapons that he had fused were platinum-tier weapons that His Majesty the King had sold in the market.

Those platinum-tier weapons were worth 10,000 gold coins each. If they were damaged, they could be replaced. Watson could never take another holy relic from Augustus’ body again. Unfortunately, there was a massive gap between being transformed by platinum-tier weapons and being transformed by holy relics. Augustus could no longer display the strength of a starlight-tier elite. He could only barely reach the level of the diamond tier. That made him hate Watson even more.

Especially when he saw the faintly discernible Wheel of Reversal and the Limitless Compass floating behind Watson, his expression became even angrier. Those two weapons should have belonged to him.

“Watson, you are finally here! You are the only ones left among the kingdom’s 16 geniuses. Since you are all here, I will begin to present the prizes.”

When King Landhar III saw Watson, his eyes flashed, and his voice filled with dignity resounded throughout the entire venue. There were whispers of Watson’s attractiveness and how one would like to receive the awards with the geniuses, but the King ignored them.

“Today is an important day for the kingdom. After the two-day match, today is the Royal Academy’s opening day. Today, I will present the kingdom’s Medal of Honor to those 16 geniuses who have made great contributions to the kingdom. I hope that in the future, all of you will be able to improve your strength and make great contributions to the kingdom.”

As he spoke, King Landhar III walked up to Watson and the others. With his signal, the 16 geniuses stood in a row with Watson as the leader. King Landhar III took out a gold and red medal with a dragon embroidered on it and placed it on Watson and the others’ chests.

Everyone who received the medal nodded and thanked King Landhar III. Watson was no exception. He lowered his head and looked at the Gold Dragon Medal pinned on his chest. He realized that that medal was not only made of gold; it was also decorated with diamonds. The craftsmanship and raw materials alone could not be compared to ordinary jewelry. Furthermore, there was a magical aura on the badge. It seemed to be able to release a protective shield to protect the host. It was an excellent gold-tier peak magic tool.

“The Medal of Honor has been distributed. Next, I will give Watson an additional reward.”

After walking one round, King Landhar III returned to Watson. He picked up the crown on his head and gently fastened it on Watson’s head. Then, he reached out and gently stroked Watson’s hair.

“If you wish to inherit the crown, you will have to bear its weight! Watson, I bestow upon you the title of the Fourth Prince of the Holy Dragon Kingdom. You will have the right to freely enter the palace and have the same status as my other three sons. That crown is my gift to you. I hope that you will study hard in the Royal Academy and work hard to become a qualified monarch one day.”

“Yes, Your Majesty. I will not let you down.”

Watson knelt on one knee respectfully and bowed his head.

“Let’s call it a day for this medal ceremony. I still have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first. Next, Principal Brand will give a speech.”

With those words, King Landhar III left the academy under the escort of his group of guards. Replacing him was a white-haired old man who came onto the stage. He looked at Watson and the others with gratification and then began a long speech. “Today, we welcome these new students to the Royal Academy. This time, the number of students is ten times that of the past. This indicates the rise of the Royal Academy and the rise of the kingdom—”

Listening to Brand’s speech, Watson felt like he was in a math class when he was a child in his previous life. Fortunately, Brand spoke for ten minutes before his speech came to an end.

“Next, I shall announce that the opening ceremony of the Royal Academy has come to an end. Next, the teachers will lead you to your respective classes. Before that, Watson, come here. I also said that I would bestow the key to the Great Library to the winner of the competition. Now, here is the key, Watson.”

Brand took out a golden-colored key on a chain around his neck and waved at Watson. Watson immediately went forward, and Brand hung the chain around his neck. “Watson, from now on, you are the gatekeeper of the Royal Academy’s Great Library. Anyone who tries to enter the library, be it students or teachers, will be subjected to your scrutiny. At the same time, you have the right to enter the library and flip through books as you wish. I hope you can make good use of that right.”

“Yes, Principal Brand.”

Watson reached out and caressed the golden key on his neck. The golden key suddenly grew an elf-like wing on its back, and it gently flew up. It drilled into the back of his neck and turned into a golden key-shaped mark, disappearing.

“Watson, it seems that we are going to be separated. If I had known earlier, I would have chosen to train as a warrior. That way, we can go to class together.” Lily first looked enviously at the golden key that had disappeared from Watson’s neck. Then, she revealed a reluctant expression.

As a genius of the Campbell family, she had heard that the extensive library contained all the knowledge in the kingdom. She also knew how powerful that key was.

“All of you should just leave. Going to class with Watson is a privilege that only I should have,” Kiana said from the side with her hands on her hips. She looked at everyone else. “Why aren’t you leaving? Do you want me to invite you to leave?”

Lily and the others could only retreat because of Kiana’s imposing manner.

“I don’t want to leave Master either. Later, I’ll apply to change the department,” Nia, who was the only one who did not leave, said expressionlessly.

“Annoying Woman! You’re here again. I already said that you’re not allowed to follow Watson anymore.” Kiana waved her fists at Nia angrily. Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel again, Watson covered his forehead and sighed. At that moment, a deep voice sounded beside Watson.

“Watson, right? I’m a teacher in the warrior department. My name is Blue. I hope that all students who choose the warrior department will follow me to the classroom.”

Watson turned his head and saw that the person talking to him had braids on his head. His skin was dark, and his figure was more robust than ordinary people. He was nearly three meters tall and carried a heavy sword on his back. He gave off the feeling of being as steady as a mountain.

“Nia and Kiana, the two of you should stop arguing. Nia, you better get to the mage department now. That is my order as your master! And Kiana, as a princess and not a student of the royal academy, please don’t pester me at a time like this. Leave now.”

“Since it’s an order, alright, my master,” Nia replied respectfully. Kiana complained unhappily, “Watson, I’m a princess. How dare you scare me?” However, a hint of redness appeared on her face, and her breathing gradually became heavier. It was apparent that she liked Watson’s stern scolding.

Turning his head, Watson smiled at Blue, the teacher with the warrior department, who was somewhat surprised when he scolded the princess. “Teacher Blue, let’s go.”

Following the warrior teacher, Watson arrived at the warrior department in 20 minutes. The Royal Academy had four departments corresponding to the four major occupations in the kingdom. Among them, the mage department’s classroom was in the west, the warrior department was in the east, the priest was in the north, and the archers’ classroom was in the south.

The warrior department’s classroom in the east was a huge building.

‘I wonder what Teacher is going to teach us today?’ Watson thought with anticipation.

He took off the crown bestowed by King Landhar III and played with it in his hands. ‘I’m one step closer to the throne. The next step is to recruit as many geniuses as possible in the Royal Academy to become the backbone for me to overthrow the King. He gave me the right to become the future King and conferred me the Fourth Prince’s title. It will be much more convenient for me to do whatever I want. I’ve also obtained the key to the Great Library. After class ends, I’ll go there and use the fusion system to learn.’

The entire kingdom had accumulated hundreds of years of knowledge and secrets. If he learned all of them, one could imagine how much his strength would rise.

The geniuses behind him saw that scene. Most of them looked envious, while a small number of them curled their lips and looked unhappy.

“That guy is too arrogant. Even though he is strong and awarded the crown and the key to the Great Library, he should not be so happy, right?” someone from the warrior department said in a sour tone.

His words did not receive the approval of the people around him but instead made them laugh.

“Why so jealous? Did you eat lemon?”

“If you were the one who got the title and the key to the Great Library, I’m sure you’d be even happier than Watson.”

Most of the people who said that were girls. Then, they turned around and chased after Watson’s figure with their sparkling eyes. Some people clasped their hands together. “It is said that Watson was born in a small noble family at the border. It is all because of his hard work that he can achieve his current status. A hardworking man is the most handsome. In my heart, Watson is completely different from those who rely on their background to succeed. They can’t do it themselves and will only be jealous of others.”

The people who had just ridiculed Watson suddenly turned red in the face. “Bullsh*t, I’m not such a person! Even if I am, I know one person who would definitely not be like that, and that person is Augustus. Young Master Augustus even changed his body in order to win. He is willing to do anything to become stronger. That is a true man, a true elite. He is completely different from a guy like Watson who relies on his talent and puts in very little effort to act so arrogantly.”
