"Holy shit, this woman!"
Lynn was stunned by Ivyst’s declaration that sounded almost like a confession made publicly.
including Hillena, everyone was stunned.
For a moment, countless eyes filled with various emotions were cast on him.
Among them, many people finally recognized Lynn’s true identity, feeling surprised for a moment, and began murmuring to those around them.
This was the first time an Imperial Princess had publicly revealed her marriage in such a public occasion.
Although it was uncertain if it was true, if the events of today were spread, it would definitely cause a sensation in Glostin.
Feeling the scene gradually getting out of control, Hillena’s expression gradually became serious.
She raised her voice slightly, adding a touch of imperial authority to her usually gentle gaze.
A moment later, the surroundings finally quieted down.
Hillena took a deep breath and then looked solemnly at Ivyst, who seemed somewhat nonchalant in her wheelchair, "Did you decide this matter yourself?"
"Shouldn’t one decide their own marriage?"
Ivyst chuckled, looking towards Hillena.
Usually, the antagonistic Imperial Princess who was overwhelmed by her now seemed to possess an ease and comfort in her presence.
Hillena’s expression grew colder, "You are being unreasonable."
"The marriages of the Royal Family should be arranged by the Holy Oak Organization. How can we decide it for ourselves?"
The purpose of the Holy Oak is to maintain the purity and sanctity of the royal bloodline. Hence, every member of the Royal Family with Saint Laurent blood is not entitled to decide their marriage independently and must undergo the Organization’s selection to choose a partner with suitable family background, appearance, and personality.
Even Saint Laurent VI, before he ascended the throne, could not escape this destiny.
"Retract your words; I will pretend as though I did not hear them and will ensure that no one spreads word of what happened here."
Hillena asserted her authority as an elder sister.
She was actually trying to protect Ivyst.
If what happened today really got out, ultimately she would be the one punished by His Majesty or even have her scores in the King’s Election docked.
Even Colonel Hayden, who had been silent, was sweating profusely as he interjected, "Princess Hillena is right, Princess Ivyst, please withdraw your statement. The Military Department will also not spread this."
I just don’t want to mess with things like the King’s Election. Why do these people always like to stir up trouble for me?
Clearly, he also realized the gravity of the issue and had to break away from his stance of keeping himself safely out of trouble.
Suddenly, the atmosphere somehow became tense.
Ivyst slightly squinted, glaring at the group who seemed about to stage a coup against her.
Then she gently squeezed Lynn’s tightly held hand, brewing her emotions slightly, and a trace of lingering pity appeared in her eyes as she looked up at her beloved ’puppy.’
They are all bullying the owner...
Her vivid red eyes seemed to be communicating just that.
Isn’t this expression a bit too much?
Lynn unconsciously averted his gaze, trying to adopt an indifferent stance.
Hillena was very serious and even called out her full name.
However, Ivyst did not pay heed to her sister and continued to look up at Lynn the entire time.
As if she was very certain that this guy would soften his heart and help her.
Finally, under this bizarre atmosphere, the youth could no longer bear it and sighed slightly.
"Ladies and gentlemen," the boy, while being held by the woman in the wheelchair, spoke gravely, "I think, rather than focusing on some trivial matters concerning the Imperial Princess, we should consider what to do after resigning from the Military Department."
Hearing his inexplicable words, everyone was stunned.
Resigning from the Military Department?
How did he switch from Ivyst’s issues to this topic?
Even Hillena was puzzled about the connection between the two matters and immediately frowned at Lynn.
Feeling everyone’s astonished gazes, he shook his head, "Didn’t you understand?"
"You will soon be dismissed from the Military Department, a bunch of dead fools."
"Utter nonsense!" Colonel Hayden finally lost his patience, "If you have something to say, say it directly; there’s no need for alarmist talk here."
Hearing this, Lynn looked at him, then nodded: "In that case, I’ll make myself clear."
The next second, he lifted his hand and pointed towards a group of people in the distance: "There is a spy from the Demon Clan among you!"
When the black-haired, blue-eyed youth appeared in the Jump Transition Matrix, an odd sensation as though he did not belong in this world suddenly emerged in Xiya’s heart.
It was not him per se, but that guy on the platform named Lynn Bartleion.
He seemed like an impurity rejected by the entire world.

Yet, paradoxically, they were helpless against him, letting him freely navigate through the river of time.
The hatred and disgust that originated deep within his heart swept over him again.
Xiya clenched his fists tightly, forcibly suppressing the urge to kill him on the spot.
This was an enemy he had to eliminate.
Even though it was their first meeting, a notion inexplicably emerged in Xiya’s heart.
Throughout, the black-haired, blue-eyed youth never glanced at him among the crowd.
