"What's going on with Liangzi? Am I still in a dream?”Makoto Ito was originally very happy about the system's mission. After all, this meant that he would have a decent income. However, after reading the mission introduction, he was dumbfounded. He almost jumped up and pointed at the system to scold it.
"Host, please accept reality. Everything is real. Please work hard tomorrow. This is the first step to getting rid of your reputation as a scumbag.”
"Hey, your gloating tone is too obvious. Besides, if I really do this tomorrow, I'll definitely die.”Makoto Ito's face was full of despair, and he felt that his future was bleak.
Ryoko suddenly appeared from the system and patted Makoto Ito's head to comfort him,""Take it easy. If you don't follow the system's instructions tomorrow, you won't be able to live either. Why don't you take this opportunity to think about the specific measures for tomorrow? If you perform well, there might be a chance for you to survive.”
"Are you trying to comfort me? Why do I feel like crying even more? But you're right. I have to pull myself together.”Ito Makoto looked at Ryoko expectantly with a pair of big tearful eyes.
Under Ito Makoto's gaze, the smile on Ryoko's face grew wider and wider. Ito Makoto's expectations grew as well, but suddenly, Ryoko's expression changed. She spread her hands and said," There's no countermeasure. You'd better rely on yourself. Just improvise tomorrow. I won't give you any help."”
The merciless words shattered the hope in Ito Makoto's heart, and the expression on his face collapsed.
"It seems that I can only rely on myself tomorrow. I hope that the princess is not a difficult person to get along with and can show mercy. Seeing that she is so beautiful, she must be a gentle and virtuous person. This way, with my rich experience in picking up girls, the chances of winning a chance of survival will be much greater. I won't cultivate today and sleep well to maintain sufficient physical strength for tomorrow's 'big battle'.”Makoto Ito immediately laid down and fell asleep. If Makoto Ito knew the true appearance of the princess, he wouldn't be sleeping so soundly now.
Ryoko looked at Ito Makoto's performance and nodded thoughtfully.
The next day, the sun rose silently. Ito Makoto woke up early today. He looked nervous and kept thinking about his plan for today. At this moment, a sudden voice interrupted his thoughts.
The sound of metal rubbing against each other could be heard outside the prison, which had been silent all this while. It was like the sound of armored soldiers walking in ancient movies. The door of the cell was opened, and a soldier wrapped in thick armor walked in from head to toe. The thick smell of blood hit his face. This was definitely the killing intent that came from experiencing real battles on the battlefield, and he was very strong.
When Ito Makoto saw him, his legs trembled uncontrollably. It seemed that the cowardice engraved in his bones could not be changed in a short period of time.
"Makoto Ito, I've been ordered by His Majesty to bring you out for trial.”Although his words were not hurtful, the contempt in his eyes was very obvious.
Makoto Ito didn't care about the soldier's contemptuous gaze. This was something he had expected. Most importantly, Makoto Ito knew that the moment that would decide his fate had arrived. He quickly calmed down and patted the soldier in front of him. Shaking pair Then, he followed the soldier out.
The soldier looked at Makoto Ito's performance and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. However, that was all. He did not need to pay too much attention to a person who was about to die.
Makoto Ito followed the soldier out of the prison. Only now did he realize how huge this prison was. It was built underground, and there were many cells inside. They crisscrossed and could not see the end. Without someone familiar with the terrain to lead the way, an ordinary person would never be able to walk out of it for the rest of his life.
When they reached the ground, the glaring sunlight made it hard for Makoto Ito to open his eyes. Breathing in the fresh air, Makoto Ito once again sincerely felt that it was great to be alive. After walking with the soldier for about an hour, Makoto Ito finally arrived at the palace.
Along the way, he was pointed at by the surrounding commoners. They looked at him with contempt and disgust. Words of schadenfreude could be heard everywhere. Some even clapped and cheered. From this, it could be seen how much people hated Makoto Ito's predecessor, but he seemed to be used to it. It seemed that he had gradually been influenced by this body. If it was him who was still in school, he would have long been unable to stand the gazes around him and found a " hole " to hide in.
After entering the Divine Dragon Empire's palace, although the memories of his predecessor were still in his mind, he could not help but be shocked by the buildings here. This place was too prosperous, and the majestic aura assaulted his senses.
Turning left and right, after walking for a long distance, Makoto Ito finally arrived at the main hall. The soldier who led him to the main hall door left. At this moment, many nobles and ministers had gathered in the hall. The handsome young man sitting on the dragon throne must be the current emperor of the empire, Long Haotian. Standing beside him was the third princess of the empire, Long Yue 'er, the victim of this incident. Other than that, there was also a middle-aged man with a worried expression. His face was old and his long beard fluttered in the wind. He first attracted Ito Makoto's attention. That must be the father of this body. He was the closest family member of this body, but to Ito Makoto's soul, he was undoubtedly a stranger.
"Ito Makoto, do you know your sins?" The dignified man sitting on the dragon throne spoke first.
Makoto Ito was shocked by the dignified words and immediately came back to his senses. Sweat flowed down his forehead unconsciously as he stammered," Yes, I was wrong. I admit my guilt, but please give me a chance to explain."”This was the result that Makoto Ito had thought about for the entire night. He would plead guilty first and then gain a chance of survival.
After listening to Ito Makoto's words, Ito Zhi could not stand it anymore." Cheng 'er is so stupid. How could he take the initiative to confess? If he refuses to confess, perhaps I can still protect him with my life, but this way, sigh.”
Contrary to Ito Zhi's thoughts, the nobles were happy to think that Ito Makoto was doomed, especially Ito Zhi's old rival, Marquis Zhou Xiatian, who almost laughed out loud. He felt that his arrangements would not be of use today. He had thought that it would be a tough battle, but Ito Makoto's explanation was laughed off by him.
Long Haotian's interest was piqued. He had thought that Ito Makoto would refuse to admit his guilt." Then tell me your reason."”Although he was very interested, the expression on his face did not change.
"Yes." Ito Makoto thought for a moment and said loudly," This is all because I love Princess Long Yue 'er too much. I fell in love with her the first time I saw her. When I went back, I couldn't taste her food and couldn't sleep at night, so I did such a despicable thing. However, I only wanted to have a good talk with her when I kidnapped her. I didn't have any ulterior motives. In order to express my love, please be a witness."”
Makoto Ito took a deep breath and looked at Long Yue 'er affectionately. He shouted,""Princess, please marry me. I will protect you for the rest of my life!”
As soon as Ito Makoto finished speaking, the hall fell into a deathly silence.
