246 The Princess Bystander

(MC POV)

"How did you learn of your potential?" I chanced asking princess Guiying who remained smiling at me.

Her smile widened, "It was quite interesting actually. When I had returned to the palace, my parents had planned for me to marry into one of the Major Houses to ensure their loyalty. I'm sure you are familiar with that kind of setting?"

"Let me guess, you were to marry the head of the house who happens to be some ugly, fat bastard?"

"Teehahaha~ Master does know them!"

"And in defiance of such a decision, you materialised a Technique for the first time?" Lian Li guessed.

"Mmm… Does senior sister have such an experience before?"

"You could say that, yes."

The two of them shared a knowing look before the princess turned back to me, "As cliche as it sounds, I did find out my talent through that incident. But it is unfortunately a rather niche element."
