Evolution of the Ruined Heir - Chapter 15: Corner

“It is said all over the Imperial City that the eldest young master of the Song Family has been entangled by a not-so-popular little internet celebrity, who is actually a wild girl from the mountains, desperate for fame. She livestreams farming, selling sweet potatoes and radishes every day under the name 'Youzi Live Room,' which sounds so off-brand!Until one day, the entire internet was clamoring, and the platform crashed.The Agricultural College's official blog reposted 【Youzi Live Room】, asking, 'Are there any more of the newly developed seven-color seeds? Waiting online, urgent!'A famous movie star reposted 【Youzi Live Room】, lamenting, 'Failed to get the watermelon my sister planted, so sad...'KM Empire's official blog reposted 【Youzi Live Room】, the Prince couldn't get lychees, willing to purchase at a high price!The Chinese Medicine Association's official blog reposted 【Youzi Live Room】, exclaiming, 'It's fine if you can't grab the fruits and vegetables, but must you compete for the herbs too?'Song Family's eldest young master reposted 【Youzi Live Room】, saying, 'All three meals are homegrown, without additives or pesticides, what do I do with all this nutrition?'Chi Youyou exclaimed: 'Song Shiyu!

It was in the middle of the night that the woman who would be the Duchess came to see me.

She said my father and mother died, and my kind uncle became king.

She said it’s not worth it for me, the crown prince, to be living in hiding, too.

“A while ago, Your Highness had been hiding from me. With all due respect, is that for the sake of survival? Just because your parents died doesn’t mean you have no reason to survive. Actually, that fact alone made it all the more reason why you should live. If you die now…”

If I died now?

When I asked her while looking at her eyes, the woman eventually brought out the harsh truth with empathetic eyes.

“It’s like a dog’s death.”

“That’s rude….”

It’s been a long time since I said that. In a short while, he has been treated as a madman and beaten to death just by saying similar things. She loosened her arms that held me and I suddenly stiffened up due to it. Because I thought she might have loosened her arm to hit me. But she didn’t.

She knelt down with one knee in front of me, just like a knight.

“Hastred’s Sarian raised her salutations. May you accept it gladly.”

My first knight is beautiful and kind.

“Are you on my side?”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

It was all a lie.

In a world where reality shifts with every roll of the dice, a man daily partakes in an extraordinary game with the gods, his actions dictated by his decisions and the face of the dice. He takes great joy in this game until the tables turn, and he himself becomes a piece on the game board. Now, the dice are in his hands, and it’s his turn to shape his own destiny. It’s time for the Snowman to play his part.
