7 Analyze Target

When Alu arrived at the place, Rivik and Roux turned their eyes to him.

Roux only glanced at him for a moment before looking away with an indifferent expression while Rivik looked sneered.

According to information that Alu reads, this Rivik also doesn't like Hawke. And he often bluntly mocked Hawke.

"I thought you wouldn't be able to break through in the next few months." He said with a sneer

Alu, who was disguised as Hawke, immediately answered Rivik's taunt.

"Rivik, don't be too arrogant. Our cultivation is the same now, and who can reach higher in the future is still undetermined. There are so many people who have been overtaken because they are too arrogant." Alu replied in the usual Hawke way of answering when he was teased by Rivik.

"Humph." Hawke snorted. "I'll cut my own leg if you can do that." He answer.

"But, at least you don't embarrass our royal family too much." He added, making Hawke's face turn red.

Right after Rivik spoke, Roux's gaze suddenly locked onto the palace door.

When Alu looked there, he found three young women coming out of the palace.

Alu's gaze was fixed on the woman in the middle. The woman looked quite beautiful with a tall body and golden brown hair.

It was the Blue Spiritual Kingdom's Princess, Reva.

But Alu didn't really pay attention to her beauty. Instead, he used his senses to investigate her cultivation.

"This woman's talent is quite good." Said Alu quietly.

Looking through the slightly radiating aura from her body, Alu estimated Reva's spiritual source might reach around one thousand six hundred spiritual sources. That's a pretty high number for a princess of a kingdom.

Of course, because the breakthrough time wasn't that long either. If she cultivated for some more time, her spiritual source might be able to reach the number of spiritual sources possessed by the Crown Princes of the Great Kingdom.

...

When Reva, who was followed by two women who looked like her personal servants, walked out of the palace, she looked at Roux and her brother.

"Let's go." She said with a friendly smile before leading the people to leave the palace.

She didn't greet Alu, and she didn't even glance at him as she passed Alu who was currently pretending to be Hawke. The way she ignored Hawke's existence was all too obvious to anyone.

ALU doesn't care even if his real self is ignored by others, not to mention when he's just disguising himself as someone else.

Alu then followed suit a little behind Rivik and Roux.

While on the way, Alu occasionally looked at Roux who seemed to be staring at Reva.

"Hmmm, another genius who fell in love with a woman." It didn't take Alu too long to figure out Roux's hidden feelings.

It was commonplace for geniuses with no background to join the royal family, but the way Roux did it according to the information Alu read was a bit too much. It was now clear that he did that because he also had his own goals.

If Reva's talent were a little lower, he might be able to achieve his goal. But apart from Reva's higher talent, Reva is currently also owned by the Crown Prince of the Great Kingdom.

"Or is there another secret that is beyond people's expectations." Alu tried to guess while he turned his gaze towards Princess Reva up ahead.

In other people's eyes, Alu seemed to admire Reva's beauty, but he was actually trying to see her reaction.

His father said that the Blue Spiritual Kingdom Princess also loved the Holy Wind Kingdom's Crown Prince. However, even though they might still meet often, how could two very young people from two different kingdoms fall in love so easily. Moreover, their relationship happened only because of an agreement between the two kingdoms.

Most relationships because of such an agreement will usually meet with resistance from the woman.

"But no matter what, if there really is something hidden, it can be used if this kidnapping plan doesn't work out."

....

Not long after, the party led by Princess Reva arrived outside the palace where there were quite a number of young people waiting. Not far behind them, was a spiritual ship with the Blue Spiritual Kingdom emblem on the hull.

Among the young people, Alu could even see Hawke's friends who went to the entertainment place with Hawke.

They stared at Hawke with curious eyes. They seemed to want to ask where he had been missing during the past few days.

But because of Princess Reva's existence, they didn't dare to speak. They could only follow the other young aristocrats to pay their respects to Princess Reva.

After Princess Reva nodded, she then walked up the spiritual ship ladder. People followed behind her.

The Blue Spiritual Kingdom was not as wide as the Phoenix Kingdom and the spiritual ships they rode on were also much faster than ordinary passenger spiritual ships. Hence, the trip to the royal borders also did not take too long so there were no private rooms on the ship.

People including the Princess herself are currently gathered in the main hall of the ship where there are rows of tables and chairs complete with dishes to accompany their journey.

Hawke who is the king's nephew naturally sits at the main table along with the Princess and other high ranking nobles. However, Hawke's existence seemed to be ignored by them.

They held the conversation without letting Hawke join in.

Since they were about to meet with the Crown Prince of the Holy Wind Kingdom, the conversation also revolved around that Crown Prince.

They talked about his talents and various accomplishments in recent times.

From their conversation, Alu now knew that the Crown Prince seemed to have better talent than most of the Crown Prince of the Great Kingdom.

But Alu is more interested in other things. His gaze was more often directed at Princess Reva to see her reaction.

"I don't think she hates the crown prince." ALU concluded after some time of observation.

....

"Oh, by the way, I heard the Great Prince of the Phoenix Kingdom is also very talented. Rumors say that he is very unexpected." Alu then spoke.

When people heard what Alu said through Hawke's mouth, not only the people at the main table were silent, even the people at the other tables also fell silent.

Kingdom of the Phoenix!

In the Blue Spiritual Kingdom, this kingdom is as popular as the Sacred Wind Kingdom.

But while the Sacred Wind Kingdom was popular because they helped protect the Blue Spiritual Kingdom, the Phoenix Kingdom was just the opposite. They are well known for their constant attacks on the kingdom.

The people looked at Alu with strange eyes.

Since they were currently talking about the Crown Prince of the Holy Wind Kingdom, his words were clearly meant to compare the two Princes.

The silence didn't last long. After the people recovered, they immediately spoke up to refute Alu's words.

"Humph, how can that Prince of the Phoenix compare to Prince Varog." Someone snorted.

Prince Varog is the name of the crown prince of the Holy Wind Kingdom.

"That's right. I heard he never even showed himself in public. Even the people in the capital of the phoenix kingdom never saw his face."

"He may not be as good as the rumors say, which is why he never showed himself. I thought the phoenix kingdom was just spreading rumors to increase their prestige."

Of course, they were all defending the Sacred Wind Kingdom's Crown Prince.

While they started talking, Alu once again glanced at Princess Reva. It surprised Alu a little that Princess Reva didn't actually speak. She just listened to the conversation with a casual smile.

Of course, just because she didn't speak, it was still not enough for Alu to conclude. However, Alu also didn't see any anger on her face when her fiancé was compared to others.

"Looks like this Princess Reva doesn't really love that Crown Prince. But from her previous reaction, she doesn't seem to mind getting into a relationship with him either. It might be for the good of their kingdom's relationship. She seems quite open-minded." ALU draws conclusions.

If Princess Reva really doesn't want a relationship with the crown prince of the Sacred Wind Kingdom, Alu will try to reveal the truth in public so that people will know that Princess Reva has been lying all this time.

Compared to making the Sacred Wind Kingdom retreat, making the relationship between the two kingdoms damaged was much better for the Phoenix Kingdom. Without the Sacred Wind Kingdom protecting them, it would be very easy for the Phoenix Kingdom to conquer the Blue Spiritual Kingdom.

Of course, Alu did all of that, not because he really cared about the Kingdom of the Phoenix that he thought of a way for the Kingdom to conquer new territory. All Alu wanted was the advantage of conquering that new territory.

Every help that Alu gave to the Kingdom of Phoenix, his father had to pay a fair price.

"Well, I'll take a look at the situation first. Even if Princess Reva doesn't mind their engagement, there is still a chance to break their engagement as long as she doesn't really love the crown prince."
