On the third floor of the Ekte Craftsman's Association, there is a spacious atrium surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glass windows. The large area of natural light makes the entire floor feel bright and airy.

A deep azure carpet stretches across the interior of the atrium. On either side are shop windows displaying a variety of merchandise, as well as a service counter and meeting area.

Lance and Huberlian had just stepped out of the doorway.

Their attention was immediately drawn to what lay ahead.

This layer appears to be very sparsely populated, with only one prominent feature—

A comfortable and spacious lounge area with plush sofas held the attention of a young man with light golden hair. Dressed in simple attire, he sat amidst several senior members of the Digital Card Maker Association, like stars orbiting the moon.

Due to the youth's introverted yet composed manner of speaking, he became even more eye-catching.

And seated beside the youth was a maiden adorned with silver-rank crafter's insignia, her raven tresses shimmering with an amethyst gleam in the sunlight.

Although she didn't dress elaborately to stay with the youth, the noble air that naturally emanated from her was undeniable. She must be a carefully adorned noble miss.

People who can be received as honored guests by the Card Masters Association are generally rare.

He must be of extraordinary rank and status.

Before Lang could express his thoughts, Huberlian seemed to have recognized the young man's identity at first glance.

Her face turned pale immediately, she grabbed onto Lance's sleeve and hurriedly prepared to turn and leave.

But.

Because Ranch and Huberly were already quite eye-catching, it just so happened that they caught the sharp gaze of the young man with blond hair.

"Huberlianne And, Ranchi"

The unassuming yet distinguished young man gazed in slight surprise at the Huberlian and Lanch at the foot of the stairs.

He immediately smiled, stood up hastily, and quickened his pace toward the two of them.

"Oh... there's no escaping this..."

Hubert murmured softly, letting out a quiet sigh.

"This is a good person, but also a troublesome one..."

When Hubertian once again gazed upon the youth with flaxen hair who had already passed, a wry smile graced his face:

"Good morning, Your Highness."

"Good morning, Your Highness."

Lanche, noticing Huberlian's subtle attitude, also followed Huberlian in greeting the young man.

Upon hearing Hyberlian's words, Lance instantly realized that this young man was Princess Vivienne's brother.

... is also the brother Vivian mentioned, who might be a little bit problematic.

But Ranch had never seen Huberlian so unwilling to meet someone.

"I didn't expect to run into you guys at the Cardmaker's Association."

Arinorr beamed at the two people before him, seemingly having completely forgotten about the deep purple-haired girl waiting for him in the distance.

Although Ranch didn't say anything, he was a little confused.

This prince doesn't seem like someone who lacks propriety. So what exactly is the problem

I came to the Association of Card Makers with my friend.

Hubert lowered her head and mumbled, seeming almost afraid to meet the prince's gaze.

"Well then, I'll lead the way! You can trust me, my knowledge of this place rivals even that of a high-ranking attendant!"

Arnold spoke sincerely and enthusiastically.

He also apparently seemed to be someone who would show genuine kindness to Huberlian.

This couldn't help but make Lynch even more confused. Why would Huberlian look so awkward

However.

Lan Qi gradually felt an unignorable, intense gaze upon him.

It seems to be staring straight at them.

He hurriedly looked in the direction of the gaze and soon noticed that, at the same time, the girl who was ignored by Anor on the sofa seemed to be staring at Huberlian. A sense of tight security seemed to be about to waft over through the air.

Even though, in Lanchi's eyes, Eleanor’s attitude towards Huberlian was probably just like that of a brother to his sister, to the deep purple-haired girl, it was both like facing a formidable enemy and fraught with jealousy and vigilance.

After silently observing for a while, Lance finally started to understand.

Huperlyan seems not to be afraid of this cheerful prince, but rather doesn't want the deeply guarded, dark purple-haired girl to misunderstand.

They two seem to have known each other for a long time and their relationship is not superficial.

Huberly looked at Ranchi with tears in her eyes.

She believes Lanchi should have understood already.

Prince Minming Aenor only treated her as a sister because he was very close to her father, Duke Mihaya. Every time he saw Huberlian, he treated her just like his own younger sister Vivian.

In the eyes of the purple-haired girl who cherished Enol but was never treated with such kindness in return, Hubrian seemed to pose a great threat.

Faced with Prince Einor's request to entertain the two of them.

At the same time, he was still that super honest prince who casually abandoned the purple-haired noble girl.

Huperlians wouldn't dare accept this statement!

Lance saw Hubley's pitiful expression and understood.

He decided to help his good friend Huberlian.

"Thank you for your kindness, Aenor."

Lanche gazed intently at Anor, neither agreeing nor refusing Anor's kindness. He merely thanked him first.

As long as the purple-haired noble girl's attention is drawn to herself, she won't misunderstand Huberlian anymore. Naturally, Huberlian will also be free from this pressure.

Indeed.

As soon as Lance spoke, a bright light shone in Eleanor's eyes.

"Ranchi, I've had many questions about art that I wanted to ask you, but hearing that you're very busy lately, I didn't want to disturb you."

Although this was Aenor's first time speaking with Lance, the sincerity of their connection felt like two souls meeting after years of longing. It was as if they had a thousand words to share with each other.

"It's an honor to meet you, Lord Eon. Vivian also told me about you."

Ranch smiled wryly and said.

Of course, he wouldn't refuse the chance to befriend such an approachable prince.

Compared to his sister Vivian, he didn't even have a hint of pride.

So, what did Vivian say about me

Arnold's interest was piqued by Ranch's words.

She thinks you are very kind and a respectable and reliable older brother.

Lance replied with his characteristically high emotional intelligence.

Although Vivian didn't say it exactly like that, Lance thought the meaning was pretty much the same.

Moreover, to help Huberlyne, he also needed to attract the prince's attention.

"Is that so"

When Arnold heard this, his face lit up with joy.

Because the behind-the-scenes evaluations heard from third parties are generally true.

It's clear she's been praising you all along.

While continuing to say things that made Anora happier, Lancel noticed that Hyberlian had finally let out a sigh of relief.

She was indeed because of the purple-haired girl.

Their relationship is definitely not bad, on the contrary, Huberlian should have been taken care of by the purple-haired girl, which is why she cares about her so much.

“What else did Vivian say”

Arnold even went so far as to sling an arm around Lance's shoulder and inquire.

Then, Lance and Lan started chatting like old friends. It seemed as if she had admired Lance for a long time and now they were getting along very well, their conversation flowing effortlessly.

However.

For some reason.

After chatting for a few more sentences.

Lance felt that sour, stinging gaze hadn't weakened, it had actually intensified!

Only then did Lanchi realize that when he had caught Anor's attention, the purple-haired girl had indeed stopped staring at Huberlian.

What I never expected was.

Prince Arnor and he became instant buddies. This surge of affection in less than a minute seemed to surpass the purple-haired girl's years of effort.

It seems like her jealousy has backfired onto herself!

"…"

Lan Qi pondered for a moment, as if an idea had just sprung to mind, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch with a faint, almost imperceptible curve.

Hubberly, who had just let out a sigh of relief, suddenly realized something was wrong!

She frantically pleaded with her eyes fixed on the violet-haired girl.

Don't look at Ranch anymore, really don't look...

As a fine young man, he has always been a person of integrity and would never stand to see others in trouble.

If you stare at him again, he's going to get into trouble!

Today, three updates, and there's a big chapter coming later.
