Chapter 386 386: The Goal?

Everyone in the hall saw the Princess kiss Gabriel out of nowhere. However, none knew the truth.

Princess Xin suddenly rushed forward to kiss Gabriel only to find her body frozen in place as her lips were about to touch Gabriel's. It was as if some mysterious force was holding her in her place, making her unable to do anything.

From the back, it indeed looked as if the Princess was embracing and kissing Gabriel but only she and Gabriel knew the truth.

Gabriel didn't let Xin come close to him without taking precautions. He had already placed some safety mechanisms in place to prevent any sneak attacks.

The Princess' lips were so close to Gabriel that he could even feel her warm breath on his face.

"What do you think you're doing?" Gabriel asked with a heavy frown.

"Trying to prevent a battle." Xin couldn't move her body yet she could at least speak.

It didn't matter how scared she was of Gabriel or how amazed she was at his unique abilities. Since she had already taken this step to prevent the battle, she had no other choice.

Gabriel didn't understand what she meant. How did her attempt to kiss her save a battle? If she really wanted to save her brother, there were way better methods.

"I don't need you to stop battles for me." Gabriel took a step back. Xin was free from the restriction and she was allowed to move.

To the others, it instead looked as if the two were finally done with their long kiss and were finally stopping their public display of affection.

"That man, no wonder he wasn't scared of the Royal Guards. He already made the Princess fall for him!"

"What a lucky man!"

Some spectators were praising Gabriel's luck since he was in a relationship with the Princess while the others were jealous of him.

Gabriel didn't care what others thought. He didn't need the support of a Princess to achieve his goals. He already had an Empire of his own after all? What Prince? What Princess? He was the Emperor!

He picked up one of the seven keys on the table, leaving the six keys for the others before leaving.

The Princess remained behind, not knowing what to do next. She had just pretended that Gabriel was her boyfriend and the man left without any reaction. If the truth was out, her brother was definitely going to find him!

"Cough, look what you did! You made him so angry that he doesn't even want to talk to me!" The Princess was riding a tiger and now she had to keep that play up. She couldn't tell the others the truth until she was back in Yann.

She explained the ignorance of Gabriel as him being angry with her because of her brother and the ones who attacked him.

The Prince was standing in his place. His jaws were dropped and he didn't even know how to react.

'Wasn't she also the one who asked the guards to beat the man up before realizing who he was? Now she's blaming me? What did I even do?' The Crown Prince could only scratch the back of his hand.

No matter how fierce or arrogant he was, it was also true that he doted on his sister for the most part. If she truly loved the man, he wasn't going to make her upset.

He walked closer to his sister and patted her head lightly. "Don't worry. No one can stay angry with my cute little sister. I'll apologize to him. Come."

"Argh." The Princess didn't know what to do. Gabriel had finally left. There was no need to approach that calamity again! Unfortunately she couldn't tell her brother that. "T-there's no need. He's a little shy! I'll talk to him myself. Just stay out of it and don't get close to him. I'll bring him to you myself when he's ready."

Gabriel was already in his room, having no idea that he was already made out to be a shy man who was the future son in law of the Yann Empire.

He closed the door of his room from inside and straight went for a shower. It was already late at night and he wanted to sleep after the shower and leave early in the morning.

"Go ahead. What are you waiting for?"

The Prince stood near Gabriel's room, poking the shoulders of his sister, telling her to knock.

Even as the Princess tried to convince him that Gabriel was shy, the Prince didn't let her do as she pleased. He also wanted to meet with his future brother in law and brought Xin with him to introduce the two.

"Don't worry. I'm sure he won't be upset. Who can stay angry with my cute little sister for long?" The Prince further motivated Xin.

At the moment, only the two of them were there to show their sincerity. The Crown Prince had already left their guards behind in the distance.

Xin's heart was racing. In her eyes, Gabriel was a ruthless dark mage who could kill without blinking an eye. What if she accidentally annoyed him by coming here and she was killed along with her brother?

Unfortunately, there was no way out. She couldn't tell her brother that she was lying before. If that happened, she knew her brother was going to make things even harder for Gabriel.

Seeing his sister still hesitate, the Crown Prince took the lead himself and knocked on the door before stepping back and pushing his sister ahead. "No need to thank me."

The Princess felt her face turn red in anger. What thanks? She was instead cursing her brother for being so dense. She wanted to run from there but couldn't.

Gabriel was still in the shower when he heard the knocking on the door. He ignored the knock for the first time, but when there was a second knock, he decided to check who it was.

He stepped out of the shower and donned his clothes before opening the door.

Opening the door, Gabriel noticed a young man and a young woman standing outside.

"What are you doing here again?"

"W-we..." The Princess initially stuttered but before she could finish her sentence, she froze, noticing Gabriel's expressions change. She grew scared that he was displeased.

She didn't know that she wasn't the reason behind Gabriel's surprise. It was just that Gabriel sensed the same presence and that presence was coming from inside the room.

Frowning, he turned around. When he entered the room, he was all alone, but currently, there was another person in the room. The window was also open now, making it evident that the second person entered through the window.

Gabriel left the Princess at the door and walked back to his room.

"Well, he's quite an odd one," the Crown Prince smiled wryly seeing Gabriel's bizarre behaviour but he didn't think too much. He held his sister's shoulder and entered the room with her.

As Gabriel hadn't closed the door, to them it seemed as if he was telling them to come inside. The Crown Prince just thought that Gabriel was shy like the Prince described.

Gabriel walked back to the room, and found a young lady, lying on the bed lazily.

The lady had a small fruit in her hand which she was eating while lying in bed.

"Do you have any idea how hard it was for me to find you? You ran without even waiting for me," the young lady exclaimed. She was none other than the Holy Priestess of Summoning.

"How can you abandon your poor wife like that?" She sarcastically stated as in the eyes of many people they were husband and wife, even though in reality, they weren't even that close.

"Isn't my wife the one who left me alone at the Church and disappeared, only to come back with an enemy?" Gabriel responded, shaking his head lightly.

"Is my husband angry at me?" Avilia jokingly stated, laughing charmingly. "Anyway, this time I came here to talk to you about that. There's something important that I need to tell you."

Avilia just finished speaking when she noticed that two more people had entered the room, looking at her in a daze, especially the Crown Prince.

"Wife? Husband?" The Crown Prince frowned. "This cheating bastard? He already has a wife yet he made my sister his girlfriend?"

He couldn't believe his eyes. The boy that his sister loved was a cheater?

"Your sister is his girlfriend?" Avilia couldn't help but laugh. She didn't believe this in the slightest but she still found this whole thing interesting.

She stood up and observed the Princess. "It seems my husband really found a beautiful concubine."

"When he told me that he was going to make a harem of hundreds of beautiful ladies, I thought he was coming. Who knew he was being serious and already started."

Gabriel's face twitched uncontrollably. What hundred people harem? What nonsense was she spouting?!
