"Who are you?"
It wasn't an accusation or a question; it was simply an inquiry.
As if she believed that once she asked the question, she would absolutely get an answer, the young girl straightforwardly expressed her question.
Fang Li tilted his head and met the girl's gaze with a faint, indifferent smile, giving his response.
"At the very least, I can confidently say that I am definitely not a Hero, Miss Priscilla."
Upon hearing Fang Li's words, the one who reacted wasn't the girl herself but Natsuki Subaru.
"Priscilla?"
Natsuki Subaru raised his head and scratched his chin, muttering thoughtfully.
"Why does that name sound so familiar?"
It was only natural for Natsuki Subaru to find the name familiar.
After all, he had spent an entire month in the Royal Capital living in Reinhard's home, so he had gained some knowledge, including some notable characters.
And the arrogant girl in front of him was one such notable character.
Priscilla.
Full name, Priscilla-Barielle.
Barielle is a well-known noble family in the Kingdom of Lugnica, similar to the Mathers clan, and both have been granted their own territories.
However, Priscilla is not a blood relative of Barielle but the wife of the previous head of the family. After the head's sudden death, she inherited all his assets and territory.
Priscilla's notoriety isn't limited to her multiple marriages.
At the young age of 19, this young woman has married seven husbands.
However, all her husbands died under various circumstances without ever touching her.
Because of this, Priscilla is quite renowned in the Kingdom.
She is known as the "Bloodstained Bride."
Priscilla is also famous for another reason.
"One of the candidates for the throne of the Kingdom of Lugnica is observing someone attempting to rescue her while being beaten by a group of gangsters plotting against her in this alley?"
Fang Li chuckled and spoke to the girl, "You have quite a unique taste."
"That's right." Natsuki Subaru immediately agreed, then suddenly realized something, his eyes widening.
"A candidate for the throne?" Natsuki Subaru stared at the girl in astonishment, raising his voice as he exclaimed, "You are the so-called 'Bloodstained Bride,' the Black Widow!"
"You're only realizing this now?" Priscilla responded assertively, "Not knowing who this one is, where on earth did this clown come from?"
"…So that's how it is." Natsuki Subaru covered his face.
"An arrogant noble Ojou-sama setting? Could it be that she's the type with a tough exterior but a tender heart? If I can break through her haughty exterior, maybe I can conquer her?"
"But a candidate for the throne? Isn't that too challenging?"
Seeing Natsuki Subaru maintain his prone position on the ground, lamenting yet speaking confidently to himself, Priscilla frowned.
"What on earth is this clown saying? Could it be that he's trying to entertain this one with foolish words? That would be quite a dull show!"
"Thank you for your harsh and unpleasant evaluation! Miss this one!" Natsuki Subaru's face contorted slightly, unsure whether he was angry or humiliated, and he shouted at Priscilla, "You look so beautiful, why must you have such an exhausting and thankless setting?"
In response to Natsuki Subaru's words, Priscilla gave a look of disdain.
"It's well known that I'm the most beautiful in the world, and the world revolves around me. Your attempt to win my favor with such mundane flattery is neither clever nor entertaining. You should stick to your clownish antics."
With that, Priscilla raised her closed fan, pointing it at Fang Li.
"Moreover, I've given you permission to introduce yourself. Why are you leaving this clown to deal with me?"
Priscilla's arrogant attitude caused Fang Li to furrow his brow.
(So self-important...)
Wasn't she?
If he hadn't seen it for himself, Fang Li would never have believed that someone could truly believe the world revolved around them.
But here she was, demonstrating that mindset.
And she wasn't just pretending; she genuinely believed it.
Of course, from a certain perspective, Priscilla's words weren't completely inaccurate.
Because she, like many others, possessed a Divine Protection, making her a fortunate individual.
Hers was called the Divine Protection of the Sun.
This Divine Protection provided her with various boosts during the daytime.
In other words, as long as it was daytime, everything Priscilla did, every action she took, would benefit from the sun's favor, making outcomes skew in her favor.
Perhaps the seven husbands who died without ever touching her could be attributed to this Divine Protection.
With such luck, Priscilla's belief that the world revolved around her wasn't all that surprising.
But Fang Li wasn't going to buy into her self-centeredness.
"You say the world revolves around you, right?"
Fang Li looked directly at Priscilla and gave her a calm smile.
"In that case, the world will eventually reveal my origins to you without you even asking."
"Moreover..." Fang Li approached Priscilla, standing right in front of her.
Priscilla looked at Fang Li with a hint of confusion.
The next moment, Fang Li reached out and gently gripped Priscilla's chin, lifting her face to meet his.
Priscilla's deep red eyes changed expression.
They became more dangerous.
But Fang Li didn't seem to notice; instead, he playfully held her chin, lifting her face up, bringing their faces close as if he were about to kiss her, and he whispered to Priscilla.
"I don't know what your seven previous husbands were like, but let me tell you this: men don't like women who are overly aggressive."
"If you don't want to end up as a single old woman wasting such a beautiful appearance, you should probably tone down your attitude."
"Just because the world revolves around you doesn't mean men will too..."
Leaving this statement behind, Fang Li released Priscilla's chin and picked up the dumbfounded Natsuki Subaru from the ground, dragging him away like a piece of trash out of the alley.
Priscilla was left staring in the direction of Fang Li's departure, her gaze intense. Then she suddenly smiled.
The smile was both cruel and filled with childlike innocence.
"Daring to speak to me like that?"
"Interesting. Let's see if you will revolve around me after all..."
