Caught in the Act in Front of His Wife? (3)

The boss was beaming with joy today. All the seats in the arena were completely full. Even if the ticket price were increased tenfold, they would still sell out instantly. His business hadn't been this good in a long time.

There was no way around it; the duel between the eldest prince and the Hero was simply too eye-catching. One was a royal member whose reputation remained intact and whose talent was outstanding, while the other was Hero from another world who possessed two Transcendent Authority.

The two main characters have not yet appeared, but the arena is already packed with people.

The noise was deafening, and a large crowd was even crowding the corridors and passageways. The shameless shop owner had started selling standing tickets, and the price was exactly the same.

The only thing that annoyed the boss was the royal family. The Earth Mother Church and the Holy Church took away a lot of tickets, all of which were VIP seats, and they didn't even pay for them... This made the boss curse in his heart for three days and three nights.

In the VIP section, Wadsworth, Saint Monica, Augustus, and Zimmerman sat in the center, with some members of the royal family and important figures from the Church scattered behind them. Apart from Zimmerman, only Natia from the Sage Mountain came.

Natia had been in seclusion on Sage Mountain for the past few days, seemingly needing to calm down. However, upon hearing that Qin Chu was going to duel with the First Prince today, she couldn't resist breaking out of seclusion.

At this moment, Natia's brows were furrowed, and her face showed visible worry.

Zimmerman gave his best student a strange look. For Natia, who always had a cold expression on her face, such an expression was definitely rare.

She certainly wasn't worried about the eldest prince... Could it be that the cabbage she'd painstakingly raised was really going to be eaten by Hero?

This made Zimmerman feel a fatherly displeasure... Although he understood that Natia needed to have some contact with the world, otherwise her future would be quite lonely and bleak, and the Hero's talent was undeniable and indeed a very good choice... but he just felt uncomfortable.

"Who do you think will win?" a languid voice came from the royal family.

It is the third prince, Bernard Abshien.

He wasn't particularly talented in Battle Qi, but among all the princes, he was definitely the most cunning and treacherous. After the eldest prince lost power, Bernard was immediately given important responsibilities and was now riding high.

"The Hero will prevail." The answer to Bernard's question came from a bewitching young woman in a long purple dress.

A slender leg peeked out from under the skirt, her rounded toes swaying back and forth in her black high heels, revealing the smooth curve of her arch.

The black lace stockings contrasted beautifully with her fair skin.

Bernard sighed somewhat helplessly. This was his younger sister, Carol Abshien.

She has a very beautiful name... well, she is quite beautiful too, but her behavior is completely unlike that of a member of royalty. She even crosses her legs... it's just too inelegant.

The king was also quite troubled by Carol. He arranged for several etiquette teachers, but without exception, all of these elegant etiquette teachers were driven away by Carol with a leather whip.

Her personality is extremely twisted. A duke's son was deeply in love with Carol and once publicly confessed his feelings to Carol. However, his own sister pulled out a metal collar from somewhere and declared that she didn't need a boyfriend, but she did want a well-behaved and obedient pet...

The Duke turned green with rage, and Bernard gets goosebumps just thinking about it.

It seems that Father is preparing to send Carol to the Hero's side; it should be within the next day or two.

Bernard withdrew his gaze. "Carol, you seem to trust the Hero quite a bit? However, you might be overthinking it. Although I also dislike my older brother, his talent and strength are beyond doubt."

Carol gave a dismissive scoff and said nothing more.

In fact, almost everyone in the arena shared Bernard's sentiment; no one believed Qin Chu could win, as the difference in strength between the two was simply too great.

The Crown Prince's publicly stated level is 75.

The Hero, whose public level is 47, has a notable achievement of defeating Horne, who is 60, seemingly by sneak attack.

It's important to know that the higher the level, the greater the difference between each level.

Although Qin Chu smashed dozens of wine bottles on the Crown Prince at the banquet, it was only because Qin Chu's unethical and shameless sneak attack stunned the Crown Prince.

Once the eldest prince is prepared, Qin Chu will have no chance to launch a sneak attack.

At some point, the tone of the discussion shifted, and even the betting odds changed, from who would win to how long the Hero could withstand the Crown Prince.

"I bet 1000 Mana; the Hero can hold out for five minutes."

"Are you kidding me? That's the First Prince! Level 75, while the Hero is only 47. That 28-level difference is impossible to sustain for that long. Besides, I heard the Hero even stole the First Prince's fiancée. She's currently living in the Hero's Palace, and they've probably already... you know... done that already. Just imagine how the First Prince will feel! He'll absolutely hate the Hero! Once it starts, I reckon it'll be a raging storm. In that situation, the Hero probably won't even last a minute. I'll bet 1000, three seconds..."

"Don't be too certain. Of course, I'm not saying the Hero will win, but have you ever heard of a cat playing with a mouse? I feel the Crown Prince won't defeat the Hero so quickly. He might just make a fool of the Hero and humiliate Hero in front of so many people. I bet half an hour..."

"Hehe, I don't think so. I believe the Crown Prince will use overwhelming power to instantly kill the Hero. I bet 500, one second..."

In the preparation room, Qin Chu in a chair, closing his eyes to rest.

Angelica, Violet, Ekaterina, Athena, and Antasia were all with them.

The soundproofing here wasn't very good, and outside noise clearly reached Angelica's ears, which made Angelica very uncomfortable.

"Angelica, there's no need to get angry over those people. Everyone's just having fun..." Qin Chu lazily stretched his arms.

"However, it would be a bit embarrassing if no one bet on me to win."

"Although my rank is indeed not as high as the Crown Prince's, I've been receiving guidance from Athena for the past three days and three nights, so I do have some confidence."

Athena's pretty face flushed slightly, and she glared at Qin Chu with a hint of annoyance.

"So let's have a little fun, a little gambling is harmless, right...?"

"Angelica, go to the betting odds and place a small bet, just a token amount, nothing too much..."

"One hundred million would be fine!!"

The second update is here.

Chapter 150 Husband's current crime? (3)

"No way? Someone actually bet on the Hero to win? And they bet a hundred million?"

"God, is this a case of having too much money to spend? A hundred million Mana is going down the drain."

"It would be so much better if you gave it to me."

"Shh, don't talk, it's starting."

Someone placed a bet of 100 million on the Hero to win, which caused quite a stir among the crowd.

Amidst the clamor of the crowd, the long wait finally came to an end, and a referee led the way, temporarily filling in as Grand Master of the Royal Guard Knights, Morton.

Morton is very strong; even if something unexpected happens, he will be able to stop it in time.

Just after Morton appeared, a tall and handsome figure emerged from the passage on the left. Although several days had passed, the Crown Prince looked much thinner, but his elegance remained undiminished, and he even appeared more noble and charming.

In an instant, cheers erupted again in the arena, which had just quieted down. People were waving their tickets frantically and shouting at the top of their lungs. There was no doubt that these were nobles who had bet on the Crown Prince to win.

These people made up almost 99.9% of the people in the arena. Almost everyone thought it was a duel with no suspense. No one believed that the Hero could win when the level difference was as high as 28 levels.

Because this is a fair and just arena, where the Hero have no chance to launch a sneak attack.

These people don't care about the consequences if the Hero lose; they just want the thrill.

Moreover, although the eldest prince's status is no longer as noble as before and he has lost the right to inherit the throne, he is still a nobleman and a native of the Skyvault Continent.

Although the Hero came to save the world, he is ultimately just an outsider from another world.

In this situation, the approval ratings were almost overwhelmingly one-sided.

As Qin Chu gradually emerged from the other side, the sounds suddenly ceased, making the difference between the front and back all the more striking. Only a few voices remained, seemingly praising the Hero's courage.

As the figure slowly approached, the eldest prince's pupils suddenly contracted.

The moment he saw this person, the moment he saw that face, the anger in his chest would surge uncontrollably, his eyes filled with intense resentment, wishing he could devour Qin Chu alive.

It's all because of this damned bastard that he fell from being the heir to the throne to being nothing.

It's all this bastard's fault! He stole Saint Rosweisse from me and enjoyed her body, which was meant for him, before I did.

It's all that bastard's fault! He made me lose face at the banquet and stole my fiancée.

All the hatred surged to his head at that moment, and the eldest prince clenched his teeth so tightly that they were almost crushed, with bright red blood seeping between them.

Just as Qin Chu was about to reach the exit, he suddenly stopped and turned to look behind him.

This scene drew a chorus of whispers from those around them.

"No way, are they too scared to fight?"

"I paid."

"Getting scared at this point? Pfft, coward."

"Duel is sacred. Go for it like a man, don't make me look down on you..."

"That's how outsiders are; they have absolutely no Knight."

Even in the VIP seats on the high platform, Wadsworth, Saint Monica, Augustus, and the others wore strange expressions, all having the same odd thought: Could the Hero really be afraid?

If you were scared, you should have said so earlier. Why embarrass yourself in front of so many people?

The eldest prince frowned slightly, then a triumphant smile spread across his face. He opened his arms, seemingly already the victor of the duel. "See? This is the Hero you've been waiting for."

"He didn't even dare to step into that sacred arena."

"Is it really appropriate to entrust the hope and Fate of the Skyvault Continent to such a person?"

He bowed gracefully to all around him, responding to the thunderous cheers and the mockery of the Hero.

Brown eyes smugly scanned the surrounding stands, trying to spot Rosweisse and show her who the real warrior and the true man were.

Rosweisse, only a man like me is worthy of you. Trash like Qin Chu is not worthy at all. I will not despise your body that has been defiled. As long as you are willing to look at me again, I will become your most loyal Knight.

Unfortunately, the eldest prince couldn't find Rosweisse; the crowd was simply too dense.

"Lord Morton..." The Crown Prince's gaze was fixed on Qin Chu's retreating figure as he addressed Morton, the referee, "Shouldn't you declare me the winner...?"

"This guy's too scared to come up anymore, there's no point in waiting any longer..."

Although the eldest prince felt very regretful that he couldn't personally teach Qin Chu a lesson, it was worth it to let everyone see the cowardly side of Hero.

However, before the Crown Prince could finish speaking, a figure suddenly emerged from the passage. Her pure white dress made her look like an angel descending from heaven, and her ice-white hair swayed behind her.

Even the eldest prince had to admit that she was a very beautiful woman.

This is his former fiancée, Antasia.

The eldest prince frowned slightly. What was he going to do?

Does this mean Antasia should fight him in Qin Chu's place?

What a shameless coward! You actually pushed the woman to the front; you've completely disgraced men.

Just as the Crown Prince was feeling smug, Antasia, who had walked up to Qin Chu, stopped. She stood on tiptoe, completely oblivious to the tens of thousands of spectators in the arena, wrapped her arms around Qin Chu's neck, and kissed him on the lips.

In an instant, a deathly silence fell, and everyone's face was filled with an eerie expression.

The eldest prince, in particular, trembled violently as if electrocuted, his initial smugness instantly turning into a twisted and frenzied expression...

They actually kissed right in front of him...

In an instant, the eldest prince was so angry he felt like his lungs were about to explode.

Shameless bastard! He's Antasia's fiancé, and his fiancée is kissing another man right in front of him...

The nobles in the stands exchanged bewildered glances. What was this all about?

"I think this must be the Hero's plan, trying to demoralize the Crown Prince. Didn't you see how furious he is? Poor thing..."

"How exciting would it be if something like this happened in front of my ex-fiancé..."

"I suddenly had a strange thought: maybe I should go back and try getting a girlfriend..."

After a brief kiss, Antasia gracefully stepped back, completely unaffected by the surrounding gazes.

Qin Chu touched his lips somewhat blankly, his expression strange.

"Hero, I wish you a resounding victory!"

Antasia then gave Qin Chu a graceful bow and disappeared into the passage.

Antasia's actions seemed to have set a precedent, and soon Angelica appeared from behind, her face flushed with shyness. Just like Antasia had done, she kissed Qin Chu on the lips. "Master, be careful."

Angelica's figure had just disappeared when Ekaterina appeared before Qin Chu, her long, crimson hair flowing freely.

Then there's Athena...

One after another.

These women are all incredibly beautiful and sexy; to have any one of them would guarantee a lifetime of happiness and comfort. And yet, they're lining up for the Hero?

A peculiar smell seemed to permeate the air around the stands.

"Am I jealous? What about you...?"

"My teeth are almost falling out..."

"Damn it, so many pretty girls, I wish I could have one of them."

For a moment, many onlookers looked at Qin Chu with envy, Envy, and hatred, wishing they were the ones standing at the entrance of the arena at that moment.
