The people around gradually quieted down, and even those who were initially resentful of Lin Fu were shocked, showing a look of compassion and admiration in their eyes.
People are like that.
Many things, that they cannot do themselves, they admire in those who can.
Consequently, everyone’s gaze towards Lady Nora and her group changed, becoming rejecting and unfriendly.
"Damn it," Celia cursed softly, about to rush over but was held back by someone.
"Don’t add to the chaos. You don’t know the backstory, so don’t recklessly put yourself forward," Nolan said, losing his usual nonchalant expression, looking somewhat grim.
"Hmph!" Celia gasped angrily, shooting a spiteful glance at Theresa in the distance.
"I know you and Theresa don’t get along, but she is a Princess now, not the defeated opponent of her childhood," Nolan said with a hint of ridicule. The Great Nobles all knew about Princess Therese’s dark history.
It happened when Theresa was still a Prince’s daughter, and Joseph IV was choosing a companion for his younger daughter.
Theresa was among the candidates but was not chosen.
Theresa saw this as a disgrace, especially after she became a Princess, she felt even more ashamed.
Over these ten years, the bad relationship between Celia and Theresa was widely known. At many gatherings, efforts were made to keep them apart.
Now, Theresa’s sudden and inexplicable targeting of Lin Fu, no one knew what was behind her actions, and what if there was some trap?
"Hmph! Stubbornly ignorant."
Lady Nora verbally scorned with disdain, but in fact, she was already nervous and frightened, beginning to sweat profusely on her forehead.
She had timed her visit to coincide with Major General Fu Xing boarding the Asgard, so during this period, even if discovered, the people of the Eighth Fleet wouldn’t know Lin Fu’s true identity and couldn’t convey it to Major General Fu Xing’s ears.
But if time dragged on, what would happen was uncertain.
Lady Nora truly hated Lin Fu now. Initially, she had thought the Princess was making a big fuss over a tiny annoyance, but now she could empathize with the Princess’s feelings.
She surreptitiously signaled to the person standing beside her holding a tray, who, already impatient, stepped forward and kicked hard at the bend of Lin Fu’s leg.
Lin Fu was already enduring with her strength depleted to the level of internal injuries. She couldn’t withstand this.
She immediately blacked out and fell forward with a thud towards the ground.
Everyone cried out in dismay just as Lin Fu’s knees were about to hit the ground, and in that moment, her body suddenly flipped over. The maid only saw a flash of cold light as Lin Fu pulled out a beautifully crafted war blade from the tray.
A head flew into the air.
The unique cold gleam of High-energy Weapons formed a beautiful crescent in the air.
It dazzled everyone’s eyes.
Lady Nora suddenly felt as if her perspective was lifted high, the people below looked smaller, wondering how that detestable ant still hadn’t kneeled down?
Then everything went dark, and she breathed her last.
At that moment, countless eyes were fixedly staring at the girl who had taken the blade, some even forgetting to breathe, their minds blank.
Princess Therese, who had always been elegantly engaging with her classmates, no longer had a smile on her face.
Her usually elegant, perfect face turned ominously somber.
"This just got interesting."
Qin Mo’s light smile vanished, revealing a hint of mockery.
