Chapter 64: Chapter 64: The Duke’s Heir VS The Underdog Female Supporting Character (Part 4)
He awoke from chaos to find himself transford into a creature neither human nor ghost.
His mind inexplicably filled with many mories, such as once being the king of the Demon Clan that dominated the entire continent, later being sealed into this necklace by a cunning human, and after thousands of years of drifting, it finally landed on a human.
He was certain that he was not this so-called Demon King.
Because the mories before this soul directed him to seek out human souls, sothing he would never do.
So, who was he really? Where was the original owner of this soul?
He pondered this question for a month and was still clueless.
Not until today did he finally realize, no matter who he was before, nor where the true body of the Demon King had gone, from the mont he regained consciousness, he had beco the Demon King.
His gaze pierced through the void, gazing toward the direction of the Royal Capital.
At the bottom of his heart was an inexplicable longing, as if in that distant Royal Capital, sothing extrely important was calling out to him.
Before the sun’s outline even appeared on the horizon, the Duke of White Rose’s Mansion was bustling with activity.
Veronica got up early, put on her Swordsman’s Warrior’s Attire and began her daily essential morning training—even with her gifted talents, her current strength could not be achieved without painstaking effort.
Filled with the power of Fighting Spirit, Gu Shengyin thoroughly enjoyed this sensation. In her previous two worlds, whether as Jiang Lingzhen or Cheng Xizhi, they were weak won who couldn’t even truss a chicken, but Gu Shengyin essentially admired strength and greatness.
Not to ntion, according to the plot progression, in two more years, Eve Heather would bring the Demon King to the Royal Capital, and before that, she needed to enhance her strength as much as possible.
Thus, the servants in the Duke’s mansion found that their princess seed to be working even harder than before.
Duke of White Rose, Richard stood in front of the window in his room, watching the small figure in the training ground earnestly practicing the swordsmanship he had taught her a few days ago.
His Grace the Duke was undoubtedly an extraordinarily handso man, it is said that even Her Royal Highness the Princess had taken a fancy to the Duke’s graceful looks, willing to marry down. Yet His Grace the Duke chose his current wife, Veronica’s mother.
As Richard watched his daughter, pride inevitably surged through his heart: although his wife and he only had this heir, Veronica had not disappointed him, she was intelligent, powerful, surpassing any heir of any other family.
His Grace the Duke had no doubt that under Veronica’s leadership, the glory of the White Rose Family would illuminate the entire continent.
Gu Shengyin’s life was extrely regular: mornings consisted of routine training, afterwards she’d have breakfast with her parents, then she’d take the family carriage to the Carter Royal Academy for her studies, dine at school at noon, not returning to the Duke’s mansion until three in the afternoon.
Though the Duke of White Rose was strict, he was a good father who knew how to educate his daughter; after returning ho from the Academy, Gu Shengyin could spend her ti as she wished.
Whether she wanted to go out with noble girls to enjoy themselves, listen to an opera, or even visit the slums to the west of the city, aside from assigning soone to protect his daughter’s safety, the Duke of White Rose wouldn’t interfere with her too much.
Sotis when his wife disapproved, he would persuade her, “A qualified leader must have their own ideas. Veronica is already thirteen years old, at her age, I had already accompanied my grandfather onto the battlefield for the first ti. Dear, you have to trust our daughter.”
