Chapter 565 Personality

As Fang Li returned to the audience hall's entrance, it seemed that the meeting had finally concluded.

Under the urging of the guards, the grand doors gradually opened, allowing numerous Knights in uniform and officials in court dress to emerge from the audience hall.

Shortly afterward, these individuals noticed Fang Li's presence one after another and one by one, they began to whisper to each other, some in surprise, others with apprehension.

"Isn't that Emilia Sama's Knight?"

"Isn't his name Fang Li?"

"So, he hasn't left yet..."

"Why is he wearing the Royal Guard uniform?"

"Could it be that he's joined the Royal Guard?"

Amidst these whispers, many seemed hesitant, as if they didn't want Fang Li to overhear, quickly leaving while keeping their heads down.

Clearly, the impact Fang Li had on these people had not fully subsided.

Especially the officials, who slunk away one by one, leaving only the Knights in uniform to salute Fang Li before departing.

Perhaps this was due to the presence of Reinhard, Julius, and Ferris.

Before long, the candidates for the throne also emerged from the audience hall.

Naturally, Emilia was among them.

"Fang Li..."

Upon seeing Fang Li, Emilia couldn't help but feel joyous at first, but when she noticed Fang Li's Royal Guard uniform, she was suddenly taken aback.

It wasn't just Emilia; even Felt was surprised.

"Nii-Chan, what's going on?" Felt looked at Fang Li in astonishment. "How come you're wearing this annoying outfit?"

It wasn't Fang Li who answered Felt's question, but Reinhard.

"Felt Sama," Reinhard addressed her with respect. "Just now, Fang Li accepted our invitation and joined the Royal Guard."

"Joined the Royal Guard?" Emilia finally reacted, feeling extremely surprised as she said to Fang Li, "So... does that mean you've become a Royal Guard?"

"Only in name," Fang Li shrugged, saying, "So, just treat me as a lazy Royal Guard, and don't think too much about it."

One sentence brought smiles to many faces.

But there was one person who not only didn't feel surprised but seemed rather pleased by the situation.

"Indeed, this world revolves around me."

Priscilla waved her fan, her crimson eyes fixed on Fang Li as she smiled charmingly.

"Now that you've become a Royal Guard directly under the Royal Family, as soon as I become queen, you'll naturally become mine as well. It's fate, no, it's my will."

Regarding Priscilla's theory, which sounded reasonable but also somewhat twisted, the others didn't comment, but Fang Li was starting to get tired of it.

"Perhaps," Fang Li glanced at Priscilla and said with a faint smile, "Instead of relying on my charm, it's thanks to my exceptional luck that I have a partner. It's quite confident of you to say such things."

"The only person who says I lack charm is you in this world, but because you're my husband, I forgive you," Priscilla said nonchalantly. "Anyway, you belong to me. Before that, just enjoy yourself with the Half-Elf over there."

Leaving behind these words, Priscilla left on her own.

"Well, that's how it is," Al greeted Fang Li and said, "Being favored by the princess for so long without getting tired of it, maybe she's really fallen for you, brother. Think about it carefully. Anyway, my princess is quite extraordinary. She should be able to satisfy you, right?"

With that, Al followed Priscilla and also left.

"Hmph." Felt seemed quite displeased as she shouted at Fang Li, "Nii-chan, don't actually become a stiff Knight, or I'll have seriously misjudged you."

After saying this, Felt also walked away.

"Well then, I'll take my leave too." Reinhard wore a perfect smile that left no room for criticism as he said, "Everyone, see you later."

With the swish of his Knight's cloak, Reinhard turned sharply and followed Felt.

Among the remaining Royal Selection candidates, one looked earnestly at Fang Li, while the other appraised him with assessing eyes. Eventually, they both left a comment.

"Now that you've become a Royal Guard, as the representative of the Karsten family, I look forward to your future performance," Crusch said with dignity and elegance. "Ferris, let's go."

"Yes, yes, yes~~~" Ferris responded cheerfully, waving to Fang Li. "Then we'll be off, Fang Li Kyun. See you later~~~"

Compared to this lively master-servant duo, another pair displayed their personalities just as vividly.

"I am quite interested in you, but it seems we're short on time. I'm very busy, so I hope we'll have a chance to chat in the future," Anastasia said in a very business-like tone, smiling. "Remember to visit Hoshin Trading Company sometime?"

"I'll take my leave as well." Julius bowed formally to Emilia Sama and said, "Emilia Sama, will you be leaving the Royal Capital soon? I wish you a safe journey!"

So, Anastasia and Julius also left.

In the end, only Fang Li and Emilia Sama remained.

"Um..." Emilia Sama seemed unsure of what to say and could only nervously say, "Roswaal seems to have left earlier."

In other words, only Emilia was here now.

To this, Fang Li just smiled faintly.

"Well then, let's go."

Hearing this, Emilia was somewhat stunned, then hesitantly pointed to herself, somewhat uncertainly saying, "With me?"

"Why?" Fang Li chuckled, saying to Emilia Sama, "Don't you want me to go with you?"

"N-No...that's not it!" Emilia Sama quickly shook her head, then took a deep breath, becoming serious, "You're right. There are many things I should apologize to you for."

With that said, as soon as Fang Li finished speaking, he suddenly extended his hand and, with a loud "Pā," forcefully flicked Emilia's forehead, making her cry out in pain.

Immediately, Fang Li turned and walked away.

"W-Wait!"

Seeing this, Emilia, holding her forehead, hastily followed.
