I Have a Dice Left by a God-Chapter 366 - 233: Estella’s Troubles

The princess doesn’t have to be one. She has mastered the Hidden Power, and with Chris and Keli as her guardians, she can travel the continent. Besides, with the help of the Round Table Conference, there’s nothing to be afraid of. Her father always dislikes her contacting Hidden Power. Is it because he’s worried her wings are strong enough for her to run away from home?

But who made her a Divine Favored? She learns quickly. The teachers at the Celestial Principle School also joke about her marriage; she really feels troubled. It seems everyone hopes she gets married, even her traditionally rational teachers. But no one cares what she really wants.

The maids have become quite neurotic too. Although they hide it, their gazes still have a strange look. Those in her palace are better, while those from other palaces occasionally laugh behind her back. Honestly, there are moments when she feels she would be better off like Amosa. No one would dare do this, perhaps she’s not a good person, but she surely lives freely, with a father who dotes on her more than anything.

But that’s just wishful thinking. In her dreams, she’s omnipotent, but in reality, she can hardly breathe under her father’s gaze.

Chris and Keli watched as the Princess’s expression kept changing. She clenched her fists at times and hung her head in despair at others. Having watched for a while, Chris flew away speechlessly, unable to bother with a child’s adolescence; the sea and sky await her.

Keli jumped into Estella’s embrace, gently rubbing her head against the Princess, hoping to offer some comfort.

Estella stroked Keli. At times like this, she might have confided in her second brother, but now he has been thoroughly educated, and even rumors of his romantic affairs have diminished, busy with his own affairs, surely unable to help her. Mentioning any rebellious ideas might even scare him.

After thinking through, the person she could confide in emerged. Running away isn’t an option, but finding someone to chat with isn’t a problem.

Feeling the die vibrate, Li Xin guessed it might be Miss Aries and responded, descending beneath the starry sky.

"Good evening, Mr. Gemini."

"Good evening, Miss Aries."

Estella smiled faintly. Mr. Gemini is a presence that stabilizes emotions. "Mr. Gemini, I must trouble you again; I’m in distress."

"Miss Aries’s distress must be out of the ordinary. Feel free to speak, let me hear it." Li Xin laughed, "If it’s because of excessive wealth, I can help."

Estella giggled and shook her head gently, clearly having made up her mind, "I don’t want to get married!"

"Ah?" Li Xin paused, what rabbit-like situation is this?

"Mr. Gemini might have heard something about this. In fact, my father and mother do have plans to choose my husband at the upcoming Honor Celebration. I also know I might be a bit selfish and capricious, but I’ve thought about it for a long time. I don’t have plans to marry right now, nor do I want my life to sink into a quagmire like this." Estella said.

In this era, noble marriages are political power chips; there’s no such thing as free love, especially for princes and princesses. Occasionally finding mutual affection is a stroke of luck.

"Miss Aries, I completely understand, but what do you plan to do?" Li Xin asked.

Estella felt much more comfortable. She knew Mr. Gemini understood; anyone else would definitely create obstacles and preach endlessly.

"I plan to sneak out with Chris and Keli to fulfill my dream of traveling the continent." Estella said earnestly. She had long imagined this since way back, but it was just a little princess’s fantasy. However, with her growing power, the development of the Round Table Conference, and the Celestial Principle Academy’s discussions, words fell on attentive ears. Now, the Celestial Principle School emphasizes the importance of practice. Dare to dream, dare to act, staying at the idea level equals nothing.

"Miss Aries, I believe you’ve thought and planned it out. But your beauty is a great danger out there. The world isn’t entirely like Hedan, accurately speaking, Hedan is the safest and most orderly place I’ve seen." Li Xin said, but honestly, with Miss Aries’s looks, her absence of a noble status could lead to chaos.

"Mr. Gemini, I can wear a nun’s robe, and I have a Secret Item that can change my appearance for a certain period." Estella replied, having considered this issue.

Li Xin smiled bitterly, "Miss Aries, you underestimate the world’s evil. If you live cautiously day by day, you may hide successfully, but in the long term, it’s painful and joyless. I trust Chris and Keli are powerful Spiritual Ability creatures, but sometimes it’s hard to prevent some situations."

Poison, spells, etc., these forces may not be strong, but once targeted, they’re truly difficult to deal with. Miss Aries doesn’t seem to be a person who’s gone through ordeals, and those who have are scarred from climbing Knife Mountain.

Estella weakly leaned back in her high-back chair and sighed lightly. She knows Mr. Gemini is right; she’s not a silly sweet princess. Saying these things is because... sigh, she can’t speak.

Seeing the dejected Miss Aries, Li Xin thought for a moment, "Miss Aries, so far, finding a spouse is just a theory. There is no need to rush despite preparations. You can take it step by step; what if the candidate is someone you admire? On a different note, if the chosen one is not to your liking, you can think of ways to make him retreat. As long as there’s a buffer, you can have plenty of time. Running away from home is a last resort, the final trick."

Estella thought about it, it makes sense. Even though the selected ones aren’t likely to be to her liking, she’s met them all and had interactions. Arrogance is ingrained in their bones, constantly bragging about their feats, too childish.

"Mr. Gemini, I trust you, but if such situations arise, I lack your adaptability and persuasive power. In emergencies, I may not have a chance to escape." Estella still spoke with some concern, having witnessed Mr. Gemini’s conquest of the Celestial Principle Academy, that confidence and infectiousness pinpointing solutions convinced her that Mr. Gemini is capable, but she is not; especially when facing her father, words fail her, and her courage diminishes.

"There’s always a way," Li Xin said, "I’ve discovered a hidden usage of the Twelve Zodiac Star Disc."

"Oh, Mr. Gemini, any new discoveries?" Estella immediately perked up.

"We can enter within the Star Disc, summon each other through touching the stars. Actually, the soul can reach the other party." Li Xin explained.

"Ah! Really, is that possible?" Estella suddenly opened up a new world, doesn’t this mean she can travel the world in another form.

"Miss Aries, the process is not as ideal as it seems; there are many restrictions," Li Xin said, "I suspect it’s more of a soul arrival, and going to the target in that way is quite dangerous, requiring a thorough grasp of soul and location understanding. Otherwise, it’s easy to get lost. I recommend not trying rashly. Another point is that the target must completely open their soul, no resistance, or I will, due to losing coordinates, become permanently lost."

Estella thought for a moment, "Mr. Gemini, do you mean using the target’s Divine Relic for guidance, the soul temporarily stays within the soul’s body?"

Li Xin nodded, "I’m not entirely sure, but that interpretation works. Miss Aries, have you heard of similar situations?"

Estella nodded, "Soul anchoring existed long ago, with Divine Relic capable of it, though it requires incredibly powerful Secret Items as a medium. Never thought our Twelve Zodiac Star Disc could accomplish it."

Estella sighed at the Withered Wood Monastery’s might, worthy of being the Holy Land devoted to the Supreme God.

Li Xin thought he discovered a new world, only to find it existed long before. Underneath the mysteries, nothing surprises him anymore. Soul anchoring requires both sides to have enough trust, for both the one opening the soul and the one journeying.

"Mr. Gemini, let’s try!" Estella suddenly said, her tone filled with excitement.
