Chapter 13 - The Lazy Prince - Episode 13 - The New Body

*Knock knock knock*

After the knock on the door, a woman's voice was heard, "Madam, the meals are ready and Your Majesty is waiting for you at the dining table."

Shun said softly, "Okay."

After the maid left, Shun stroked Sily's head and whispered in her ear, "Wake up, princess, it's time for dinner..."

Sily slowly came to her senses and opened her eyes. She let out a slight cry of shock and jumped back when she realized Shun's face was right next to hers. Normally, the width of the bed wouldn't cause any harm from jumping back. But...

Dong!

Sily was thrown backward, hitting her head against the wall and falling to the floor! She was still unaware of what had happened because of the pain in her head. But soon, surprised and curious by what had just happened, she looked at her hands, and saw something even more surprising! 

Despite being the hands of a young girl, they were covered in considerable dirt and injuries from the hardships of her life. But now her hands were made of jade, and they were the hands of an elegant, beautiful lady!

In her astonishment, she looked at her arms and legs, then rushed to the mirror standing on one side of the room and looked at herself, and couldn't help but be shocked again. 

In the mirror, she saw a girl about 1.55 meters tall, with skin like jade, as beautiful as a fairy, in a lovely red lace dress! 

Her brown, straight hair cascaded down her back, shimmering brightly.

Sily, still unable to understand that the person in the mirror was herself, first touched the mirror, then brought her hand to her face and stroked it. After examining herself in the mirror for a while, she was finally convinced that this fairy-like girl was herself, but she still couldn't understand how this miraculous transformation had happened!

Just as she thought this, Shun suddenly came to mind, and she turned her head to look at him. Shun smiled and, looking at Sily who was staring at him in astonishment, said, "Actually, it's nothing important. I simply cleansed the accumulated impurities in your body with energy, adding and tightening my energy to your meridians and muscles to create a stronger and more robust physique. So, your current physique is exactly that of a builder, meaning that even if you just focused on cultivating energy without doing anything else, with enough time you could reach the pinnacle of this world... Unfortunately, if you had been born with a slightly better physique, I could have created a special physique for you, and with that, you could have competed at the top not only in this world but also in higher worlds..." He let out a long sigh as he spoke the last words, as if he were sad.

Sily didn't understand some of what he said, but the best thing she understood was that Shun had purified and strengthened her body.Could he really make even an average-looking beggar like himself suddenly appear like a fairy simply by purifying him? Was he truly a god?!?

Although shocked, Sily was a sensible girl and quickly took a deep breath and began to calm down. Then, blushing slightly, she looked at Shun and said, "Thank you."

Shun got out of bed and waved his hand, saying, "It's nothing, it was only a few minutes for me," and then started walking towards the door...

Sily was speechless. In just a few minutes, she had transformed from an average beauty to a fairy who could be considered a true beauty even in this world! Moreover, she hadn't even noticed it while she was asleep...

When she realized that Shun had already reached the door, she was standing there blankly. She immediately ran after him, caught up with him, and as she started walking beside him, she asked, "Where are we going?"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, didn't I? They've prepared dinner, that's why I woke you up."

"Ah..." Actually, she had been hungry even before she fell asleep, but now she realized she wasn't hungry at all. Perhaps this was the effect of Shun filling and renewing her body with energy?

After walking a short distance, they emerged into a wide corridor where a maid was waiting. Seeing Shun and Sily approaching, she bowed and said, "Please follow me."

Then, walking ahead, she escorted Shun and Sily to the dining hall. After a short walk, they stopped in front of a large double door. Two armored guards stood beside the door; upon seeing the maid and the two following her, they immediately opened the door, and the maid stepped aside, gesturing inside, "Please."

Shun began to walk, and although Sily walked beside him, she felt a little nervous. After all, in less than a day, she had transformed from a beggar who couldn't even find food to survive on the streets to a girl who could sit at the same table as the king and eat. How could she not be nervous?

(YN: She has a god by her side!) 

Passing through the door, they entered a large hall. In the center of the hall was a large dining table laden with various dishes. The King sat at the back of the table. The First Queen and the Crown Prince sat to his right and left, while the other princes, princesses, and concubines were arranged in their respective places. There were now exactly 25 people at the table, including the princesses and princes! 

'Are all kings this lustful?' Shun couldn't help but think. Although he had read harem novels, seeing it in reality was quite different from reading and imagining it.

There were only two chairs on the other side of the table. Shun sat in the middle, and Sily sat next to him. 

Just then, Sily entered, surprising everyone in the room, especially the men. Even the King couldn't help but glance at this beautiful girl occasionally, but because she was next to Shun, he didn't dare think anything of it.

The princesses...Even the queen and her concubines looked at Sily's skin with astonishment and envy. The king finally couldn't resist asking, "Lord Shun, is this...?" He looked at Sily and asked.

Shun looked in the direction the king was looking, surprised, and asked questioningly, "Sir?"

The king and the others were silent. The king coughed slightly and continued, "Ahem, um, who is this beautiful young lady?"

Shun looked at the king in astonishment and asked, "Don't you know her?" He seemed quite surprised.

The king was about to go mad with anger. 'Why would I ask if I knew her?! Besides, if I had known such a beautiful young lady before, she would even appear in my dreams, how could I forget her?!' Even though he thought this, he couldn't stop thinking for a while, but still no figure came to mind. But soon the thin girl who was walking with Shun came to mind, but he shook his head in disapproval, thinking, 'impossible'. That average-looking and thin girl had nothing in common with this fairy-like beauty in front of him! 'But, now that I think about it... wasn't this feast prepared only for that girl?'

Thinking this, he turned his eyes to Sily and began to examine her carefully. Soon he noticed her clothing and his eyes widened in shock. He couldn't help but shout, "Is that you?!"

Everyone except Shun was startled by his shout. Meanwhile, Shun had already pulled a plate in front of Sily and himself, placed two pieces of meat on their plates, and begun to eat.

Those who had been startled by his shout looked at the King questioningly. The King was still staring at Sily with astonished eyes. 'This is impossible! I saw her just half an hour ago; she was only frail and average-looking, her hands were covered in wounds, and her skin was not good due to her poor upbringing. But! It's only been half an hour, how could she have undergone such a miraculous transformation?!'

After thinking this, his eyes fell directly on Shun. 'He must have done it! Only he could perform such a ridiculous miracle!'

Ignoring those who were staring at him in astonishment, he politely asked Shun, "Master Shun, this is young lady Sily, I apologize for not recognizing you." "I didn't expect her to change so much in such a short time..."

Those around them were surprised to hear this. They had never heard the name Sily before, but it must be the name of this fairy-like beauty. But after a brief thought, some of them remembered the frail girl who used to accompany this god-like man!

As they thought this, they said in hushed, trembling voices, "Impossible!"

Especially the princesses, concubines, and the queen, after realizing this, began to examine Sily with astonished and fiery glances. If they learned these secrets, their futures could be much better! After all, what girl or woman wouldn't want to be beautiful?

Sily could no longer withstand the fiery gazes falling upon her, and at that moment Shun spoke, "Enough, Sily can't eat." These words instantly made everyone else at the dinner table feel as if they had woken from their dreams. 'That's right, a god is sitting at this table with us right now!'

However, they didn't dare do anything to upset Sily again and slowly began to eat their meal.
