As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime - Chapter 76
Chapter 76: Women’s Fault Again
“Why are you staring at me?” Monn asked curiously at the three women staring at him.
The three women glared at each other with eyes full of fighting spirit. All of them wanted the chance to dance with Monn.
Just as they were glaring at each other, Monn said, “Please proceed without me, I’m getting something to eat.”
Monn then turned around and left, ignoring the three women in astonishment.
He then found a quiet corner and enjoyed the desserts all by himself. The three women could only keep glaring at each other.
The First Prince’s eyes lit up when he finally managed to catch Monn being alone. With heavy feet, he walked up to Monn.
He looked at Monn at leisure, and his eyes were flashing with excitement.
The prince opened his mouth, and said with a deep voice.
“Cardinal Monn, please fight with me!”
The First Prince’s voice made a few of the nobles at the banquet look at him.
Not only did someone gloat, “Haha, I didn’t expect that the cardinal would actually be targeted by His Highness the First Prince!”
“Just in time for the First Prince to teach him a lesson! He actually dared to act so intimate with my goddess, the First Princess!”
Everyone stared at Monn, hoping that the First Prince would teach him a lesson!
Monn had a mouthful of sweet food in his mouth, and his eyes glanced indifferently at the First Prince who had come to announce his challenge to him again.
He shook his head in his heart, feeling a wave of boredom.
He continued eating while looking elsewhere, and said faintly, “Didn’t I say that I won’t do anything unrelated to work during working hours?”
The interest on the First Prince’s face did not diminish at all. He continued, “Then let’s wait for you to fight with me when you’re not working!”
Monn frowned when he heard that. He felt that this First Prince was really haunting him.
He then said coldly, “I will not fight with you in my private time. That would be a waste of time for me.”
The First Prince’s expression became displeased. “Nothing is workable. I think you just don’t want to fight with me!”
Monn nodded decisively, “That’s right. I just don’t want to fight.”
“You’re not afraid, are you?”
The First Prince crossed his arms over his chest and used this clumsy goading tactic.
Monn did not react at all.
“This cardinal isn’t afraid of the First Prince, is he? To think that the king was flattering him just now, I think he must have been deceived by him.”
When the crowd saw that Monn did not dare to accept the challenge, they began to mock him.
Monn was not moved at all. He did not want to waste his time on other things.
When they saw that Monn was not going to accept the challenge, everyone lost interest.
They were muttering about this coward and then gradually shifted their gazes elsewhere.
Wasn’t it better to spend time looking at beautiful women? What’s the point wasting time on a coward?
But some people did not think so.
As a young genius of the kingdom, Kyle could be said to be the person in the entire kingdom who could almost be engaged to the eldest princess.
But at this time, an unfamous cardinal suddenly appeared, and he even looked like he was in love with her.
How could Kyle, who had already regarded the first princess as his exclusive property, accept this?
Seeing His Highness the First Prince had taken a step forward, Kyle, who had been observing for a long time, finally could not sit still.
He stood up and walked past the crowd. He held a glass of red wine in his hand and had a gentleman’s smile on his face.
It made people think as if he wanted to get to know that cardinal well.
Only Monn frowned, sensing a malicious gaze,
“Nice to meet you. My name is Kyle. I am the heir of the kingdom’s Lisina family.”
Kyle smiled and greeted Monn, as if he was trying to make friends with him.
Monn did not look at him when he heard that. He continued to stare at the food in front of him and let out a faint “oh”.
This kind of attitude could not help but make Kyle angry.
How dared you not give me face, this detestable red shirt!
He vaguely frowned and continued to smile, “Why, Cardinal Monn, don’t you want to introduce yourself?”
Hearing this, Monn finally raised his head.
Seeing this, Kyle felt a little proud in his heart.
See, you still had to give me some face. After all, I am the heir of the Lisina family!
Not long after, he saw Monn’s expression as if he was looking at a fool. He calmly said, “Don’t you know my name?”
Kyle’s face stiffened.
The introduction that he mentioned was obviously not just about knowing the name. Of course, he had to reveal a bit about his background.
Originally, in his heart, he thought that this cardinal was, after all, the heir of a powerful noble or something. Otherwise, how could he enter the eldest princess’ line of sight?
Just because he was the cardinal of the Aldrich?
In this day and age, there were too many cardinals.
If they were all so honorable, wouldn’t the Aldrich have long established their authority in the kingdom? What other matters would there be in the royal family?
But now…
He shook his head and suddenly felt that he had been too careful.
How could this cardinal have any background?
Otherwise, with the power of his Sena family, he would have met such a person.
It was probably just a little cardinal.
As for why the King emphasized introducing this cardinal, Kyle felt that it was probably to give face to the Aldrich.
But he had never thought that since the saintess was here, why would he still introduce a small cardinal?
After thinking it through, Kyle looked at Moon without a smile on his face.
He looked down at Monn and sneered, “How dare a little cardinal be so arrogant? I advise you to stay away from the eldest princess. She is not someone you can have a relationship with!”
Hearing Kyle’s words, Monn instantly understood.
So he was Princess Cheryl’s suitor.
As for Princess Cheryl, Ace, and Heidi, although Mon didn’t seem to care about them on the surface, he felt troubled in his heart.
Counting the days, ever since he met Ace, he had been encountering countless troubles because of women.
Monn really did not know what to say.
Now, another one had come. Monn was really fed up with it.
His gaze at Kyle gradually turned cold. He did not have the slightest intention of wasting time on him.
The aura of a peak-stage saint instantly rose from his entire body.
His red robe fluttered even though there was no wind.
This aura caused the atmosphere of the entire banquet to become quiet.
Almost everyone present had extraordinary strength. This instant’s aura caused their expressions to change drastically.
“This is the strength of a Saint!”
“Who is it?”
While everyone was searching for the owner of this aura…
The First Prince who was standing in front of Monn and Kyle had a different feeling.
Kyle’s expression instantly became terrified, as if he had seen a prehistoric beast!
He was so frightened that he hurriedly took a few steps back. With his amethyst rank strength, there was no way he could withstand the saint level aura that was coming at him.
