Girl Hero: Revenge on Goblins!-Chapter 348: D128. Fourteenth Princess_2

The Fourteenth Princess stood gracefully in front of the Hero, extending her hand with a cheerful smile, just one step away.

"Nice to meet you! You must be the Hero that my uncle, the Count, mentioned in his letter. I am the Fourteenth Princess of this Kingdom, and I will be the witness at your knighting ceremony."

"Please teach me a lot!"

Within just a step’s distance, the Princess’s face, the metal rings on her hands and neck, and the reflection in her pink pupils all became clearly visible.

Reflected in those pupils was the somewhat stiff face of the Hero, who found that the various ceremonial knowledge she had forcibly memorized was completely useless in front of the Princess’s unexpected act. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

There was no sign of the terminal illness the Hero had imagined on this Fourteenth Princess.

However, the Hero could feel her emotions—curiosity, recognition, admiration... and a bit of hidden envy that was soon replaced by a seemingly innate strength and optimistic demeanor.

Although she was not a Transcendent, her clear temperament seemed to have the power to affect others, unconsciously easing the tension in the Hero’s heart.

She had once felt similar things from another person—a close friend with the same hair color as her, who also used to share her joy and happiness like sunshine, striving to make the people around her feel the light; but that person ultimately couldn’t withstand the more cruel reality.

At that time, the Hero couldn’t help her.

But the Fourteenth Princess, in the presence of many guards, still resiliently faced everything.

’Should be able to become good friends,’ the little girl’s words in the letter briefly flashed through the Hero’s mind.

The Hero also faintly understood why the Fourteenth Princess was the King’s most beloved offspring.

Her expression relaxed, with a touch of sentiment and a bit of solemnity, she gently held the delicate hand.

"Indeed, nice to meet you, Princess."

Despite multiple protections, the palm felt too fragile to the Hero—not metaphorically, but genuinely, as a body without magic power is no harder than glass before a professional of the Hero’s level.

However, the Hero did not treat her like a fragile item; instead, she tightened her grip just right, passing through the thin, invisible magic defense to let the Princess feel the real touch.

"Let’s get along well." The Hero’s smile was pure, her emerald green pupils showing sincere kindness.

The Princess’s pink pupils widened slightly, then a touch of smile emerged.

"Of course! I am looking forward to it."

The Count and the Princess’s personal attendant quietly observed the conversation between the two, not intervening.

His tall figure was perfectly positioned near the Princess, neither overstepping nor too distant, always ready to respond to any situation, which also made the Count nod slightly in appreciation.

Feeling the Count’s gaze, the Demon Hunting Master turned around and bowed slightly in greeting.

The Count nodded in response, then, sensing something, looked towards the Demon Hunting Master’s seemingly plain clothes underneath.

"That model is the latest development, isn’t it? Still good?"

The Demon Hunting Master looked surprised but then nodded in understanding.

"As expected, Count, though not a combatant, but..." He didn’t continue, simply responding.

"The new model is very effective, both in magic conduction and firepower."

He slightly opened his collar, revealing a glimpse of the steel-like gleam—it was the latest arcane firearm developed by the Border.

"I heard that the Shooter Guild has started dividing into firearm faction and archery faction?" The Count nodded in satisfaction and curiously asked.

"You caught me off guard... Although there’s no fundamental difference in magic wielding skills, new things and traditions always clash," said the Demon Hunting Master somewhat awkwardly.

"Hmm, true enough," the Count no longer pursued the matter and redirected his focus back to the increasingly intimate conversation between the Hero and the Fourteenth Princess.

The Demon Hunting Master, while observing the conversation between the Princess and Hero, also looked somewhat reflective.

’So that’s the rumored Hero who defeated the Phoenix... So young, seems only a little older than the Fourteenth Princess.’

Initially reserved, the Hero’s gaze towards the Princess was very respectful, appearing envious when looking at the gorgeous enchanted gown, and becoming somber when noticing the magic suppression metal ring.

Though a very nice girl, to the Demon Hunting Master, all these behaviors seemed ordinary, and certainly as expected—she likely considered it natural to show this slightly submissive demeanor in front of the Princess.

The sky blue hair, although pure, carried an unnatural aura of magic, probably from some expensive dye—while not bizarre, it also indicated that this Hero did not hail from an ancient Noble lineage with pure blood and hair, as those born with high noble symbols typically do not alter their appearance with foreign substances.
