Seventh Prince’s Debauchery Made Him Into A Title Holder

Chapter 2 - A Bargain By Sacrificing Engagement

As soon as Ayeon arrived at the dining table, the Emperor, Empress and his other step-siblings instantly locked their gaze on him.

This was something Ayeon had already anticipated the moment he decided to eat with the rest of the imoerial family as he usually got his meals delivered to his and his siblings' pavilion. After all, no one but his three sisters and personal servants assigned to them had seen him since the day he started to visit the Imperial library the moment he started walking. Which was at 2 years old.

Ayeon had long snow white hair that stood out from everyone in the Arcadia Kingdom. His facial features were otherworldly, which arose the thought that it came from his mother as she was a half-s.u.c.c.u.b.u.s but it was only because of him expelling all the impurities inside his body. One thing he had noticed was that levelling up had to do with the spiritual energy in the air, so he used it for other purposes than levelling up. His eyebrows were sharp like a sword yet between his brows gave off a gentle feeling; dangerous yet harmless. His eyes were of a bright golden colour that gave others a slight suppression when looking at them.

"Cough.."

Ayeon coughed.

Everyone in the room felt awkward because of the cough and started talking to forget that they were staring at him for quite a few minutes.

"Are you going to try to join the Sacred Nurture Academy next month?"

The Emperor asked.

"Maybe, maybe not."

Ayeon smiled mysteriously with an expressionless gaze.

The Empress only gazed at him without speaking a word. She was the same age as the Emperor. Over 200 years old. However, her appearance spoke volumes, indicating that she was only an aging woman in her mid 40s. If one didn't know better, they might just think that and not delve into it deeper.

The only reason humans could survive without becoming extinct in this world was because of the amount of lifespan levels gave you along with your lifespan at the start. Of course, being the weakest race, they also had the shortest longevity.

Every 10 levels granted you an additional 100 years of life along with the amount your bloodline gives you depending on the rank.

The Emperor still looked like in his 30s as he was at level 150 compared with the Empress who was only at level 70.

"You are late to dinner."

His older step-brother, the Third Prince, Bruno reprimanded me while the other step-siblings didn't bother to talk to him and kept quiet.

"Sorry, I was strolling through the palace before Myra found me."

Ayeon smiled softly.

"Hmph. Don't be late next time. Also, if you join the academy and encounter trouble, just use my name."

Bruno advised me.

"I understand." Ayeon nodded but inwardly was surprised.

'It couldn't be that he's already started scheming for the throne did he? Plotting to kill all the other male Princes? Or is he just wanting to genuinely help me? Only time will tell I guess.' Ayeon started making assumptions.

After that, Ayeon stayed silent throughout the meal and only responded when his opinion was asked. Sabrina and Alexia weren't there as they were out managing their mother's auction shop that she left behind after her death.

Just as the dinner was about to be finished and Ayeon could finally head back, the Emperor questioned him.

"Ayeon, you're not engaged to anyone right?"

"Indeed, I am not engaged. Why?"

Ayeon nodded his head.

"Well, I'm going to engage you to the Fel Family's young miss."

"The Fel Family!?"

Ayeon frowned.

"The Fel Family is one of the 12 pillars of the Arcadia Kingdom and it would be a good marriage between you two. Also, the rumours are that she is one of the capital's 10 great beauties. So you won't lose out."

The Emperor explained while at the same time enticing him.

Of course, he already knew who and what the Fel Family was so he didn't bother to listen to what the Emperor said and only focused on the information regarding the Fel Family's young miss.

Ayeon tried to recall everything he could about the Fel Family's young miss but couldn't remember as he hadn't paid attention to his generations of the nobles in the capital.

The things he knew in this world was not that much as he mostly focused on reading historical records of the geography of Mystical. It had twelve continents and the Arcadia Kingdom was situated in the Cloud Continent.

The kingdoms in the Cloud Continent had 4 top-level cities governed by someone at level 150 which includes the emperor, where one of them is the capital. Under these four cities, there was 16 high-level cities governed by people at level 100. 32 middle-level cities were governed by level 75s and under them were the 64 low-level cities that was governed by those at level 50.

"Alright, but on one condition."

Ayeon tried to bargained.

"What?"

The Emperor felt uncomfortable at being at his mercy in this but he has to give in this time to gain the Fel Family's support and power.

"You cannot decide my sisters' engagements."

Ayeon smiled.

Myra who was listening to them had some tears in her eyes.

I should tell big sisters about this agreement.

Myra mentally took note.

"This.."

The Emperor had difficulty choosing on this matter as he compared his choices. On one side was a man who could rope in every female in the kingdom with his looks and the other was three extremely beautiful girls that could rope in every male in the kingdom as well.

"Alright!"

After some time the Emperor agreed. He weighed the benefits and got the idea that Ayeon could marry multiple women and his sisters were only a one-time use in politics.
