The Extra's Survival

As Lucas spoke about the things to his heart content and about the thoughts that have been buried deep inside the heart, the entire atmosphere turned silent except the ripples created by the smooth breeze carrying the alluring fragrance of the flowers.

The ladies accompanying the princess frowned seeing the boy who was slightly nervous at the beginning speaking fearlessly with a serious expression about the life of death seriously as if he had already encountered death.

Julian frowned hearing Lucas ’s words. Se had just asked the question casually to get to the main topic but she hadn ’t imagined for a moment that Lucas ’s answer and views would be so heavy.

’Only by fighting with life on the line, one can overcome their limits. ’The words were struck directly in one heart.

The moment Lucas started speaking, she looked at him straight in his eyes to catch any falsity in his speech. But contrary to her expectations, Lucas spoke resolutely looking straight into her eye with a cold expression, an entirely different look from the one he was giving now.

His eyes seemed to fill with a certain fear of the unknown along with a strong will and determination to crush down every obstacle that will come across his path.

Being born in the royal families which were filled with countless schemes and deceptions peoples and meeting the nobles from an early age, she can be said to be quite proficient in reading a person ’s expression and knowing whether the person was speaking a lie or truth and the boy sitting before him was speaking entirely truth.

’Just how many life and death situations, did he go through at this young age. ’Julian thought. She had already started to admire the boy before him subconsciously.

While the princess and her escorts were lost in thought on hearing Lucas ’s speech, on the other side Lucas frowned after spouting everything, he spoke everything, he could to make the princess believe in him but he couldn ’t understand what went wrong as they were all staring at him with a shocked expression.

’Just what amazing things did I say while spouting all those bullshit to draw such an expression from them or Did I fail in her test? ’Lucas racked his mind thinking about the princess who seemed to be testing him from the moment he entered.

Lucas himself didn ’t know that his speech would have such a profound effect.

Julian had already been in many situations. Even if there were hard times for her. A situation where her life was in peril was close to none.
