This Lord is Very Scientific

"There's a conspiracy!"

Rica confirmed, "My big brother is best at concocting these schemes."

Lin Ke curiously asked, "Are you so sure?"

In his impression, the Eldest Prince had a stubborn temperament, was not entirely upright, and yet was the "Child of Light."

For someone so stubborn, making a decision to stand firm was quite normal.

A person's character and thoughts can change over time, accumulating social experiences and gaining wisdom.

But they might also never change from beginning to end.

Some people are stubborn from childhood, becoming stubborn old men.

Others are inherently romantic, maintaining their nature unwavering from youth to old age.

In Naseng, Lin Ke witnessed the centuries-long life of Ove, who remained socially anxious, likely spending centuries watching lightning pass by, so his character and experiences did not change much.

In past lives, when Lin Ke read novels, he often thought some people lived for tens of thousands of years, yet their character was still terrible and their intelligence lamentable.

But later, thinking about it, people who lived for tens of thousands of years might have lived in only one way. Their intelligence and entrenched thinking already determined their lifestyle, their approach to friends and foes alike.

So, looking at the novel from another perspective, one saw this person's low intelligence, and that person's poor emotional intelligence.

Yet oftentimes, this was the mistake of experience, believing that living longer definitely equated to becoming more formidable.

But the truth was far from it.

Therefore, Lin Ke thought that perhaps the Eldest Prince became the legendary Eldest Prince only because he had strong lineage, a powerful background, and strength.

In reality, he might be a glory-hound, sister-obsessed, stubborn fool.

Now, from Rica's words, the Eldest Prince was actually involved in a conspiracy?!

"When I was a child, I had a brother who wanted to enslave my big brother's soul. My big brother used a scheme to transfer that enslaving power to our father, resulting in my brother nearly becoming a fool!"

Rica explained briefly, "By the way, my big brother was only twenty then, and the other brother was six."

Lin Ke: (ㅍ_ㅍ)

Your family activities are quite interesting.

"But I'm just a small lord, and your Eldest Prince..." Lin Ke was puzzled, but before he finished, Rica interrupted him, "Stop boasting!"

Rica gave Lin Ke a disapproving look, "It certainly isn't because of you!"

"Then why is it?" Lin Ke asked, falling into deep thought himself.

Rica was in the same state.

Unfortunately, Rica couldn't think clearly and felt irritated:

"Forget it, forget it, you handle these brainy things. From here on, you think for us, and I'll protect you, fighting outside."Lin Ke: ...

I never agreed to this, sister!!

His mature mental age made it hard for him to be swayed by a six or seven-year-old kid...

Starting at three years with a maximum sentence of death.

Lin Ke felt he couldn't get over this mental obstacle. Rica was too wealthy, giving off vibes that he might become a kept man, aside from which Rica was simply too young.

Small in every aspect.

"Ahem, uh... Rica, why don't you come back with us? You could help out too." Lin Ke quickly changed the subject.

"Alright, I love fighting and killing; I found I'm quite suited for it." Rica cheered, "Finally, I can drain blood again! It was so boring with the Dark Maiden. I couldn't actually suck the worshippers' souls, it was painfully dull..."

As she mentioned this, Lin Ke clearly felt a small disturbance coming from Azanen Wall.

"Enough talking, grab a mount and let's ride together... Um, except mine."So as to prevent the Dark Maiden from emerging and imprisoning Rica again, Lin Ke quickly waved his hand.

Rica immediately jumped onto Lolita's mount, "Lolita, I missed you!"

Lolita carried twin hammers on her shoulders, robustly exclaimed, "Haha, sister! By the way, did you see that Qing Cha? His skin looks so good, cool white skin..."

Rica nodded enthusiastically, "Yes, yes, yes! Why is that..."

Lolita quietly whispered in a voice everyone could hear, "You must know, that Qing Cha is pale, pretty, and clean-looking; the deceased one was a hot-blooded soldier top..."

Lolita started narrating, while Rica listened with hearts in her eyes.

Good grief, this could really lead kids astray... Lin Ke was speechless; why were his followers so abnormal?

Thankfully, Knicks and John were good, Watson and Lamiel were decent, others seemed fine too... Counting all in, only Lolita was constantly chaotic!

Lin Ke preferred not to hear Lolita's filthy words, so he began steering his Gula Cow back.

Having probed the general situation, it was time to return; he needed to stay close to his people and protect them.

Lin Ke led the People's Knight Order swiftly away, leaving the magnificent Great Wall surrounded by Magical Beasts.

Just after Lin Ke departed, the silhouette of the Dark Maiden reappeared, looking in the direction Lin Ke had gone, expression indifferent.

Suddenly, a voice sounded beside the Dark Maiden:

"Rica really likes that young noble, hmm, I like him too."

Wisps of fog condensed from the air, forming a human figure.
