His Royal Highness System

Chapter 518. 506. Competing for Candlesticks
In order for the two of them to survive these three years, the first test is today!

──Please!Miss!
Feng Qianchen clasped his fingers, and after concentrating on praying for a while, he heard an interrupting voice.

"Weird~ You look nervous, Mr. Sinister Fake Gentleman~?"

Approaching with a deliberately sarcastic tone and gesture, was a red-haired beautiful girl comparable to a fashion model.Her outfit is reminiscent of a flamboyant fairy, and she stands out from the crowd.

"Thank you for being so full of words before, what's going on? Is it really that, you have an empty mouth, don't you have the strength? Oh heh heh heh!"

"I thought who it was, isn't this Miss Pulikai?"

"It's Priquet! It's not Priquet fart, it's Priquet! Don't mistake it for such an obscene name, okay?"

Pulikai fart, that is, Rosette Pulikai was so angry that her head was smoking with indignation, she rudely sat on the seat next to Feng Qianchen.

Amy tilted her head in surprise from the other side across Feng Qianchen and asked:

"Sir, who is that?"

"I heard it's Miss Alice Angel's tutor."

"Oh, my name is Amy, and I am Miss Merida's exclusive maid. If you are willing to get along with me, I will be very happy."

Amy stretched out her hand through Feng Qianchen, so the expression of Rossetti, who was originally angry, changed, her eyes sparkled like a child receiving a snack, she held Amy's outstretched hand and shook it non-stop.

"Can I chat with the maid? My name is Rose! Please help me!"

Although I didn't quite understand what she meant, she seemed very happy anyway.

"What! I thought everyone in my family was sinister at heart, but it turns out that's not the case! There seems to be only one fake gentleman who can play with girls' hearts, so I don't worry!"

"That would be great, you'd better leave me alone..."

After Feng Qianchen responded perfunctorily, he turned his gaze back to the stage.

"...Why, seeing your heavy face, are you so worried about Miss Merida?"

"of course."

After all, it's your life at stake!
Rosette held her skirt coyly and continued to ask questions:
"Well, uh......Frankly speaking, how is it going! Do you think Miss Merida has a future?"

"Not bad."

Feng Qianchen replied immediately, still staring at the stage, and continued:
"Although the young lady doesn't have any outstanding talents, she understands quickly. The young lady is honest and serious by nature, and will immediately absorb what I teach her."

Confirming his true mood, Feng Qianchen himself nodded in agreement.

"Miss is worth teaching, and she will continue to grow."

"Hehe. It's all thanks to Mr. that Miss is so honest."

Amy interrupted with a smile on her face, so Feng Qianchen looked at her in surprise.

"Thanks to me?"

"Yes. Because the lady admires the gentleman very much."

Hearing what she said, Feng Qianchen didn't feel bad, but felt a little itchy on the back.

"Oh~..."

Feng Qianchen slowly turned his head to look at Rosette who didn't take it as a joke, but just whispered.

"Speaking of which, why do you ask such a thing?"

Rosette murmured:
"...Because my lady seems to care about it."

"Oh……"

"Oh you big-headed ghost, fake gentleman!!"

Then, the trumpet sounded loudly, and the auditorium was even more cheering.

"Oh! It's finally time to start!"

As Amy said, it's time for the end-of-term open.

The contestants of the first match entered the arena on a total of five stages one after another.

The place where Merida and Nerva battled was a forest stage with dense trees.

"Look, sir, over there! It's the lady!"

Feng Qianchen hadn't tasted this feeling of stomach tightening for a long time.

The tension he had never experienced when he was standing on the battlefield made Feng Qianchen's heart pounding.

Rossetti's student, Alice Angel, was nowhere to be seen on the stage, and the three of them naturally focused their gazes on the forest stage.

The game rules are as follows:
The upper limit of a group is five people, and each group will be assigned a base to light the blood of the sun, called a stronghold called a candelabra, and protecting this candelabra to the end is the victory condition.

Smaller candelabrums can be seen here and there, and the fire can be lit or extinguished by infusing mana into these small candlesticks.

After the 15-minute time limit, if the large candlesticks of both teams are safe and sound, the side that lights more small candlesticks wins.

If we only focus on attacking, our camp will be sniped; having said that, defending alone will not win the game.

The most important thing about this rule is to strike a balance between offense and defense.

This regulation is based on the Revelation Strategy of the elite army conceived on the premise of military operations with a small number of soldiers who will go in and out of the night realm after years of continuous research.

If you want to capture more strongholds, you must have the awareness to conflict with the soldiers of the enemy team.

Feng Qianchen confirmed the composition of Nerva's team.

The enemy team consisted of four people.Captain Nerva's rank is a fighter with exceptional offensive and defensive power.There is another fighter, the third is a swordsman, and the last one has the rank of clown.

Fortunately, there were no defenders such as gunners, priests and magicians, and expectations were not lost.

And Merida's group is composed of five people.Although the number of people seems to be more favorable, the teams of both sides probably didn't count Merida as combat strength, so it is essentially four against four.

──They can only underestimate Merida like this now, just wait and see!

Just as Feng Qianchen was staring at the stage with stern eyes, Rosetti looked in the same direction and moved her face closer.

"Did you know that the captain of the opposing team seems to be called Miss Nerva? She has just learned an attack skill, and the evaluation level is said to be D."

"I know very well."

"How is Miss Merida?"

"...Unfortunately, this week is too much to teach her the basics of her usual attacks."

On the stage that Feng Qianchen overlooked, the members of the two groups were walking towards the center of the stage.

This is for shaking hands before a game.The start of the game is approaching every minute and every second, and the heat in the arena is endlessly rising.

The girls on both sides of Feng Qianchen trembled.

"Ah, it's true~ On the contrary, I became nervous while watching~!"

"Me too! It feels like I can hear the lady's heartbeat!"

"Then you are really powerful, and it doesn't help if you are nervous..."

Feng Qianchen who was sitting in the middle of them said so with a dumbfounded expression on his face, but Feng Qianchen couldn't take his eyes off for a long time, staring at Merida's every move.

The contestants began to shake hands on their respective stages.On the open square in the center of the forest stage, the members of the two teams also passed each other in reverse.

When the two people at the back of the line passed by, Nerva slapped Melida's palm hard.

Even from a distance, it could be seen that sparks quickly burst out between the two.

Each team returned to their camp and took their positions, and finally——the game was finally about to start.

There is a huge hourglass in the center of the arena, which counts the 15 minutes of the time limit.

Beside the hourglass stood two lecturers of the academy, one holding a lever, the other a trumpet.

"start!"
