White Vulture could honestly say, Prince Rhine... was the most handsome man she had ever seen.

Unconsciously, White Vulture let out a dazed smile, her heart growing restless...

Damn it...

I really want to have a beast-like Azalea Secret Ritual with him!!20

"Ahhh my head! My head is going to split!!!"3

Sigh, wait, why did another one die!

However, in the time White Vulture was stunned, Another Goblin had its skull blown off by Hela.

Rhine rebuked, "Why aren't you speaking? Are you still trying to toy with me? Do you think your own Life is so worthless that you'd go out of your way to annoy this Prince!!"2

The Goblins were already so terrified they were losing their minds, their spirits broken.

And in this deathly silence, Finally, the Goblins, thinking fast in their panic, used their trembling hands to pull a Dwarf miner who was spectating from the edge of the crowd in front of Rhine.

The Goblins' mouths trembled incessantly, "Your Highness... he... he... is..."

"Oh~"

Rhine suddenly realized, and a smile appeared:

"So you're the leader of the Golden Land, nice to meet you!"3

Rhine's anger completely vanished. He warmly shook hands with the Dwarf, "You'll have to deal with these Goblins properly later. It's not okay for them to joke around with foreign guests like this, right?"

The Dwarf miner looked utterly bewildered, not knowing what to say.

Then Rhine spoke for him.

"I imagine Your Excellency must be wondering why I've come to the Golden Land, correct?"

Rhine, still smiling, said to the Dwarf miner, "I'm a bit tired today. Arrange a room for me to rest first. We can discuss other matters tomorrow."

And so, Rhine's negotiation with the Golden Land concluded.

The result of the negotiation was that the Golden Land lost three high-ranking officials, and a Dwarf miner who knew nothing became the theoretical highest authority.

Thus, The Golden Land completely descended into administrative chaos.

Coupled with the Nether Realm corruption issue within the Golden Land, that very night, countless Dwarves fled the Golden Land in droves. And some rumors began to spread along with these escaping Dwarves.

Rhine's initial plan had been achieved.

He naturally knew who the true power behind the Golden Land was, and he was also very clear about the current situation of the Golden Land.

However, There were some things he could pretend not to know.

Based on Rhine's past experience, This Goblin in charge was treacherous, cunning, and unscrupulous – an extremely annoying fellow.1 Killing him in advance would save some trouble.

As for whether the Dwarves would seek retribution for Rhine causing such a scene in the Golden Land.

Ha.

Having already seen through the Golden Land's eventual fate, Rhine knew very well, That in at most two weeks, there wouldn't be a single Dwarf in the mortal world with the leisure to care about the life or death of a Goblin.

"Your Highness! Your Highness! Are you satisfied with our performance this time?"

With the situation calmed, Rhine, led by the Dwarves, headed towards the guest rooms prepared for VIPs in the Golden Land.

Along the way, the automatons eagerly emerged from spatial rifts, seeking praise and rewards from Rhine.

Rhine smiled, "You all did very well."

The automatons' cheeks flushed, and they eagerly asked, "Then Your Highness... can you give us some more rewards?"1

"You all, this isn't home..."

Rhine smiled indulgently, "But alright, come to my room today, and I'll give you a supplementary lesson on operating Life divinity."13

At the same time, Hela, following behind Rhine, looked at the automatons and Rhine, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.

Unlike the last time they hunted Obadiah, Today, Hela had faithfully completed Rhine's task.

Thinking about it...

Unrealistic expectations began to surface in Hela's mind. Perhaps Rhine should treat her like a doll, too, and give her a reward?

Naturally, Rhine hadn't forgotten Hela. After sending the dolls away, Rhine walked over to Hela's side. "Thank you, Lady Hela." Rhine said sincerely, "Thank you for being willing to carry out my orders. Without your help, I absolutely could not have subdued those Goblins. I can't offer you any material compensation right now, so I can only express my gratitude in words. I'm truly ashamed..."

Rhine's words touched Hela once again. A moved smile appeared on Hela's face, and she softly comforted Rhine. "No, please don't say that, Your Highness Rhine. Didn't I say it? I am willing to serve you with all my heart. You just need to accept my loyalty with peace of mind." Rhine's expression stirred: "Hela..." Hela's eyes were full of affection: "Your Highness..." Rhine: "Alright then, I'll take the dolls to catch up on their studies. Goodnight!" Hela: "???"

After expressing his verbal thanks to Hela. Rhine was going to thank the dolls with actions.

Finally, For the sake of convenience in catching up on studies, Rhine shared a bedroom with the dolls. Hela slept in the room next door.

It's time to go on the shelves...

As for a statement, there isn't much to say. Let me address some issues that everyone is more concerned about.

First, the author is a full-time writer, so there's no issue of running away. This book is the best-performing one I've ever written. As someone who has sought refuge, I now personally consider this book to be the peak of my creative career, so I will definitely put forth my best effort to finish it well.

Regarding bonus updates, there probably won't be any. To ensure the quality of the book, I will limit the daily word count to what I can manage. There will be no bounties set for the entire book; updates will only be increased when encountering situations that might stall the climax to ensure the reader's experience.

The group number for full subscribers will randomly appear at the end of a chapter within the next week. As long as you can find the group number, I will directly assume you are a full subscriber. Additionally, I personally suggest that everyone try to join the full subscriber group.

Furthermore, as an author who has written three fanfictions before debuting with original works, let me add a side note: for this original work, I can clearly feel that many of its interesting and outstanding aspects are built upon the experience from my previous three fanfictions. The most obvious example is Miss Keqing, who was "persecuted" in various ways for 700,000 words in the previous book. Through that twisted affection for Keqing in the last book, I've come to understand many plot points that would make the heroine unhappy but would delight everyone... Wouldn't you agree, Miss Hela?

Lastly, I wish everyone good health, and also...

60. My relationship with Your Highness is very good... really very good!

Tonight, the Golden Land welcomed a complete and utter carnival.

With the sudden death of the top leader, the management of the Golden Land fell into immense chaos, and the grassroots employees completely lost control.

In fact, If the management had been united in the face of the first leader's disappearance and chosen a new figurehead, the loss of just three high-ranking officials would not have affected the entire administrative structure.

But in reality, faced with the tempting vacant throne, the Goblins were dazed and immediately began a frantic power struggle.

Thus, ignoring the chaotic Order, ignoring the rioting Dwarf employees below, and ignoring the approaching Prince Hain, The Goblins engaged in their final carnival in the out-of-control Golden Land.

As Rhine hadn't slept all night, during his free time, he used the dolls' senses to witness the entire process of the Golden Land's order collapsing.

After a night of chaos, One-third of the Goblin high command had exited due to various accidents, and the Dwarf miners had basically all left the Golden Land.

After all, the Nether Realm's corruption in the Golden Land had reached an extremely dangerous level, and the Dwarves had long been living in constant fear because of it.

Now, without the suppression of the Goblin higher-ups, the Dwarves worked together, blew open the Golden Land's treasury, took their owed wages and interest, and quickly left the Golden Land.

The Nether Realm's corruption, the intensifying power struggles, and the various long-suppressed contradictions in the Golden Land erupted completely with Hela's three executions, collapsing in an instant!

The once glorious Dwarf holy land was reduced to mere scattered feathers in the blink of an eye.

However, the Goblin higher-ups were still caught up in the unstoppable struggle, fighting each other to the death for power that no longer existed.

In this night filled with conspiracy, scheming, murder, madness, greed... and all sorts of intertwined emotions in this out-of-control night, the intense emotional sparks bursting forth in everyone's minds became nourishment for the growth of the Nether Realm.

In a single night, the Nether Realm's corruption rose by another ten points.

Very good...

Everything is within grasp.

The Nether Realm's corruption escalated further, and the innocent bystanders had all been cleared out.

Rhine's plan entered its next phase.

And at this moment, Rhine suddenly heard a knock on the door.

A charming female voice sounded from outside the door: "Your Highness Rhine, do you require breakfast?"

Breakfast?

Although Rhine was considered a VIP of the Golden Land, the dwarves had all fled the previous night.

Therefore, theoretically, it was impossible for Rhine to expect anyone to serve him anymore.

However, in reality, that wasn't the case at all.

Rhine opened the door and saw an excessively tall rabbit-eared beauty, gazing down at him with affectionate, blue-green heterochromatic eyes.

Hmm, This was a member of the Demon Sword Sisterhood with rabbit demon blood.

Even though the Golden Land's employees had fled, the Demon Sword Sisterhood, hired by the deceased Goblin CEO, had miraculously chosen to remain in this mess.

And now, they were even taking on the role of waitstaff, bringing Rhine breakfast first thing in the morning.

If it weren't for the overly ambiguous and greedy look the rabbit-eared girl gave Rhine, he would have truly believed the Demon Sword Sisterhood were paragons of contractual obligation and professional mercenaries.

"Apologies, Your Highness. There was a riot in the Golden Land last night, and all the dwarves in charge of the kitchen escaped. This is just a humble meal we've prepared for you; I hope you won't mind..."

Rhine smiled and thanked her: "May I know your name?"

The rabbit-eared girl revealed a seductive smile: "If Your Highness wishes to know my name, why not come to this room to find me... This humble servant will await Your Highness's visit anytime."
