Acting as if he owned the place!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She initially found it baffling, then amusing, and coupled with her already unstable mental state, couldn't help but burst into laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then this person actually told her to shut up?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this most luxurious room of the entire palace, Lu Ce sensed something amiss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he'd never stayed in any noble residences in this world...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since when did normal people's bedrooms contain giant boulders?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, this human-sized rock occupied the very center of the room, while the bed where the princess lay was pushed to the periphery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stone bore a strange sword-like hilt protruding from it, its shape peculiar, concealing something within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sword in the Stone?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is this how wealthy people normally decorate their homes?...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who... are you?......\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, the princess couldn't resist speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any attendant witnessing this would have been shocked speechless - had the princess regained her senses so quickly?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She's already speaking coherently?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, getting a sane sentence from her was harder than reaching the heavens!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apparently, even mentally deranged lunatics can't stand being ignored.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce still paid her no mind, placing both hands on the giant stone and exerting force!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his current strength, lifting something of this shape shouldn't be problematic if it were just ordinary rock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet despite his efforts, the object didn't budge an inch!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now genuinely intrigued, Lu Ce mustered his full strength to shift it, but still failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What... are you doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The princess was utterly bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of lunatic had wandered in here? How had the guards let this person through!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She nearly called for help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce dusted off his hands and finally turned a contemptuous gaze toward the princess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're the other princess here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The princess's eyes filled with confusion. Normally she'd appear completely deranged before outsiders, but the absurdity of his question left her no time to act crazy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The question itself seemed crazy enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you mean... other?......\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What, does only one side get a king piece on the chessboard?\" Lu Ce took several steps forward, looking down at the \"princess\" on the bed. \"Though you seem considerably inferior.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What nonsense was he spouting!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The princess nearly lost it completely, especially when hearing the word \"princess\" - instant splitting headache, her entire being screaming to unleash madness!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With tremendous force, she tore a huge gash in the curtain before her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting on the bed was a disheveled woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet no matter how bedraggled her appearance, nothing could obscure her striking beauty - lips painted blood-red with smudged lipstick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lu Ce had no intention of commenting on her appearance, simply staring down imperiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All creation exists for my taking! No exquisite person or object deserves to match me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unconcerned with his thoughts, the princess began frantically clawing at her hair, emitting pained wails.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I! I'm no princess! I'm not the princess here aaaaaah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice reached piercing levels, practically becoming sonic attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce's golden mask wrinkled slightly as he scratched his ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good that you understand.\" Then he shot her a warning glance. \"But next time, just speak properly. No need to shout.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The screaming stopped abruptly again, the princess's manic eyes returning to confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked up at Lu Ce dumbfounded, as if to say: How could you just accept that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... I'm not the princess... then who am I?\" As the frenzy faded, she immediately switched to another disorder, muttering to herself like someone with hysteria.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\" Lu Ce looked down at her. \"Begging me to give you an identity?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The princess froze again, her eyes gradually filling with madness as she began clawing at the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Identity... identity! I need no one to give me identity!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Princess! I'm not princess, not princess! Then who is princess?! Aaaaaah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She started shrieking again, but this time Lu Ce was prepared, merely commenting drily:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There is no princess here. Only a king.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who's king!?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am king.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The princess fell silent for a full minute, her gaze gradually calming. After Lu Ce's series of maneuvers, she became docile, sitting quietly on the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if her madness had been cured, her eyes slowly changed, like awakening from a long dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she heaved a long sigh, sat up properly on the bed, adjusted her appearance, and said softly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry......\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But... who are you? Why did you come in?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Weren't you listening? I'm the king.\" He frowned while surveying the room. \"You're mentally ill. Why do you get this better room?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The princess gave a bitter laugh at this absurd person's words, marveling at what new lunatic she'd encountered today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But perhaps it was for the best - normal people saw her as crazy, but at least this one might actually converse with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this room... really better?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Enormous sorrow suddenly overflowed from the princess's eyes as she looked around her surroundings, saying mournfully:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hah, what's the point? This is just the princess's room. It doesn't care about you as a person - only as the princess.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... have long since had enough of living here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lu Ce remained his usual self, completely indifferent to her sorrowful tone and the obviously loaded statements that would give normal people pause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He simply nodded and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good that you're being sensible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Had enough, you say? Since you put it that way, pack your things and leave. I'm taking this room.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Princess: ?\u003C\u002Fp>",970,"2026-06-02T09:03:27.233Z",1,"novelbin.me","efeedface93150e4980d3c8be0968174f95321313bfdb8a472c3f5260260d184","pain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-chapter-285","pain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-chapter-283",867,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-cover.jpg"]
