A Demon's Journey

Edwin had no idea that his little trick had aggravated the Third Prince very greatly.

He just intended to irritate all of the princes to activate them so they would begin attacking him. By reading the memories of those subordinates, he could find out more about their respective princes.

As for the Third Prince, Bianca would tell him that Edwin was someone approved by Spencer Russel. However, she could assist him at an appropriate price naturally.

And the price wasn\'t going to be cheap. This was how Edwin believed he could extract the maximum benefit from this situation.

Bianca was dressed in greenish-colored official clothing that she would normally wear to meet some important delegates.

Her dress flew from top to bottom and had a scoop neckline, which gracefully revealed the delicate dress worn below it. Her dress\'s exquisite, buttoned-up fabric covered her stomach, where the continuous flow was broken up by a slender leather belt worn fairly high around her waist.

Her sleeves were purposely too long and a little wide. These were the same fabric and color used to outline the edges of the dress.

Following Bianca to Bernado Valliadis\'s personal villa was none other than her trusted maid. Officially, this was the case.

Another person was following Bianca. Naturally, this was Edwin.

In the night, his concealing techniques would be much more effective. Thus, he agreed to this timing to meet with Bernado.

Bianca and her maid had left through a secret passage that wasn\'t guarded by the Royal Guards. Thus, they had no idea that Bianca was no longer in the mansion and had gone to meet up with the Third Prince late at night.

A couple of hours later, the three reached their destination.

There was a single guard stationed outside this private mansion of the Third Prince.

Edwin was surprised as he sensed nearly 16 warriors inside this mansion, including the one at the gate.

14 out of these 16 warriors were 5 Star Warriors. The last remained two were 4 Star warriors!

\'Even a random prince has so many 5 Star Warriors as his guards? That\'s impressive.\' Edwin thought.

Edwin was actually wrong to think that. Excluding David Valliadis, the other princes only had 7-9 warriors at the 5 Star Rank.

The Third Prince possessed great prestige amongst his siblings. Naturally, this was due to his business of dealing with raw materials for Arrays.

Thus, he had a lot of contacts in the Array Association. So, he could naturally afford the services of all these 5 Star Warriors.

Bianca and her personal maid entered through the front door while Edwin jumped across the wall.

Soon, Bianca entered the mansion and came across a servant who was waiting for them.

"Greetings, Miss Bianca. His Highness has been waiting for you," The servant bowed as he greeted Bianca.

Bianca nodded her head and replied, "Take me to him."

Bianca and her maid were led to the internal hall where the Third Prince was waiting for them.

There was a hint of a sneer on Bernado\'s face as he stared at Bianca and her maid.

It vanished from his face a moment later. Bernado stood up and greeted Bianca with an amicable smile on his face, "Thank you for accepting my offer, Miss Bianca. As you know, there would be a greater chance of our meeting to be discovered in the day than in the night, so I was forced to choose this time for us to meet."

"That\'s not an issue. Tell me what you wish to discuss with me," Bianca was rather straightforward with her words.

"Haha… You are just as frank as I have heard about you, Miss Bianca. Please take a seat first," Bernado said to her while pointing at the seat placed for her.

He then focused on the maid behind Bianca and spoke, "I am afraid your maid can\'t listen to our talks, though."

The maid frowned, and she was about to respond when Bianca suddenly spoke, "Alright. She will leave the room."

The maid didn\'t want to leave Bianca here with Bernado. However, she couldn\'t disobey Bianca in front of Bernado. That would affect Bianca\'s prestige.

She focused on the room and sensed that there was no warrior in this room other than Bernado.

Bernado only had the strength of 4 Star Warrior. Thus he couldn\'t harm her mistress.

If the other warriors were about to attack, she could quickly close the gap between herself and Bianca and act as a shield for her, allowing her to flee.

"As you command, Madam."

Around this moment, Edwin was gazing inside this room outside the window. Naturally, he had used Shadow Concealment Technique to cover his body, and he was nearly transparent right now.

Even if Bernado or someone else stared at the window, they would not notice Edwin.

The door to the room closed. Bianca sat on a chair in the middle of the room while Bernado sat near a desk on edge.

"Before we start talking about the main issue, I wish to know something, Miss Bianca," Bernado spoke with a very calm tone.

Meanwhile, Edwin continued to stare at Bernado with his Mystic Eyes of Perception. The room was completely soundproof, but Edwin could hear whatever Bernado was speaking through Bianca.

The fact that this was a completely soundproof room wasn\'t known to Bianca\'s maid. She had failed to notice that array in the room.

"What is it, Third Prince?" Bianca spoke with a monotonous tone.

"I heard that a man had been seen together with your daughter. The two were holding hands and displaying rather intimate behavior. Who is this person?" The Third Prince was holding back a great deal of his anger as he asked this question.

Edwin frowned greatly as he couldn\'t see through the Third Prince\'s emotions.

\'What is going on?\' He asked himself as he wondered he couldn\'t see the Third Prince\'s emotions. His Mystic Eyes of Perception had never failed him.

He changed his target and focused on Bianca. The color of emotionless was visible to him. He then focused on the other warriors in the mansion and could see their emotions as clear as day. However, this skill didn\'t work when he stared at Bernado.

\'Is he wearing some sort of spiritual clothing that prevents my Mystic Eyes of Perception to see through it? That must be the reason.\'

Although he couldn\'t read the Third Prince\'s emotions with his Mystic Eyes of Perception, Edwin was experienced enough to figure out his emotions by reading his face.

\'Anger and envy….\'

"That man\'s name is Azaroth. He is a warrior my husband met during his recent mission. He saved my husband\'s life by taking a blow on his body while my husband was injured. He is a 4 Star Warrior, which is quite impressive for someone of his age. He is also very brave and an honest person. Thus, my husband has an idea of matching him with my daughter." Bianca created a story out of nothing as easily as batting her eye."

She added at the end, "You can consider him Sophie\'s fiance."

"Fiance?" Bernado\'s complexion turned rather ugly.

He considered Sophie as his woman and to hear that she had a fiance. It pissed him off more than anything.

Edwin could see how angry Bernado was right now and frowned \'Isn\'t he getting too emotional?\'

"However, I am not in favor of this match. This man, in my opinion, is unworthy of my daughter.." Bianca spoke towards the end, which startled Bernado.
