"Qingyue, ehmm!!!" The Holy Moon Emperor cleared his throat, approaching his daughter while signaling Jellal to follow.
Of course, Ye Qingyue was also a smart woman. As she stared back and forth between her father and Jellal, she began to guess their purpose.
"This young man is the young noble of the Heaven Race, his name is Jellal. He can be said to be the most talented genius, no youngster can match him. All are defeated with a single move." The Holy Moon Emperor began to speak.
His words sounded quite exaggerated but they were the truth, nothing was just exaggerated.
Jellal was indeed that strong and his reputation was indeed that great.
Before the Holy Moon Emperor could continue speaking, Jella suddenly interrupted, "Your Majesty, can you leave us here?"
Jellal had better plans, so he didn't wait for the Holy Moon Emperor to talk about the engagement.
The man was slightly surprised while Charlotte raised her eyebrows, somewhat doubtful as she looked at Jellal.
Although confused, the Holy Moon Emperor responded quickly. He nodded and said, "well, it's better if you speak for yourself!"
He turned around and strode to leave from there after saying that, inviting Charlotte, Elsa, and Safira to leave as well.
The three immediately followed him but still constantly glanced back.
Ye Qingyue stared at her father until he disappeared before looking at Jellal again, seeming to want to say something but was confused.
Meanwhile, Jella asked, "may I sit down?"
He asked for permission to sit in front of her.
His tone sounded polite so Ye Qingyue changed her mind slightly. She originally thought that Jellal was the kind of noble who would use his background to impose his will, but it seemed that he was the type who had manners.
Of course, that did not make Ye Qingyue lose her guard.
Arrogant nobles were sometimes very troublesome, but courteous nobles could be a very scary type.
She thought for a while before inviting Jellal to sit down with a gesture of her hand.
Her loyalty was only to her fiancé whom she thought was dead, so she always thought to avoid interactions with men who had certain desires for her.
However, she knew that she was now in a territory where self-determination was very difficult without enormous personal power.
Here, she inevitably had to live by the rules that had become customary.
Unfortunately, she was still very weak indeed.
She was an unrivaled genius in the small world, but here she struggled to even compete with ordinary people.
If it wasn't for her father having told her that she had an extremely extraordinary hidden talent, she probably would have lost the spirit to continue cultivating.
The problem was that even a being as powerful as her father who claimed nothing could kill him except for the creatures sleeping underground could not act freely as he wished.
Some parties could actually force him into decisions he didn't want to make.
She understood that. Even if her father was somehow a petty man who would use his daughter for his own benefit, there was no way he would have directly brought this guest to see her.
She understood that he was also in a state of distress, unable to refuse.
Jellal then sat down, showing a faint smile while looking at the woman's face which he had to admit was very beautiful.
In fact, in his past life, he had the desire to take her straight to the mattress.
However, he had to delay because the woman's talent had not fully awakened and her cultivation had not reached a sufficient level.
Currently, she was only in the Dragon King Realm, too far below him.
"Perhaps you can guess why I'm here," said Jellal, starting to speak.
The woman remained silent, seemingly not planning to say anything.
"My wish and that of the Heaven Race is for me to marry you. Honestly, the main factor is because of your talent, Immortal Moon Heart."
Jellal chose to be completely honest, not hiding anything because in the process of winning a woman's heart, honesty was more important even if it was bad.
Ye Qingyue's eyes blinked twice after hearing that.
At the same time, Jellal took out a ring, a gold ring with silver lines, it looked simple but sparkled very sharply.
Ye Qingyue, who was initially surprised by Jellal's honesty, frowned when she saw the ring.
"We, the Heaven Race, always impose our will," Jellal said again, starting to make Ye Qingyue's expression change.
Imposing one's will! This was something that anyone hated when they were on the weaker side.
"Am I not able to refuse at all?" Ye Qingyue finally asked, no longer able to remain silent.
"Yes..." Jellal nodded lightly, then placed the ring right beside her palm that was on the table.
Ye Qingyue fell silent after hearing Jellal's answer, thinking again that Jellal was just an arrogant type of noble.
It was just that Jellal's style didn't look like an arrogant noble when she thought about it.
The man said his desire to force with great calmness, as if he wasn't being threatening.
Meanwhile, Jellal suddenly continued, "although I may force this engagement relationship, I will try to get your heart so that this relationship becomes pure."
Ye Qingyue was slightly surprised to hear that, but then pressed her lips together, as if she wanted to sneer.
It was because she thought that she would never accept another man in her life.
Unfortunately, Jellal knew what was on her mind.
"I already know about your life where you grew up. You had a fiancé that you began to love, and your fiancé had died after fighting a powerful enemy. You began to be unable to forget him, thinking that he was the only one in your heart."
"You!" Ye Qingyue's eyes widened when she heard everything Jellal said.
However, Jellal did not give her a chance to speak.
"You know, wise people often say; your partner is the one who can accompany you until you are old. The one who leaves first is not the one destined for you. You don't have to be so fanatical about your past life which is actually very short compared to your future life.
"That guy, he must have been so amazing that you swear he's the only one in your heart even though he's dead. However, if you think like that, it will make you unable to feel any more happiness in your life, such as the happiness of having a spouse, children, and offspring, and the happiness of having friends when you are old.
"Actually, very few people are with their first love. Even if your fiancé doesn't die, it doesn't necessarily mean that your relationship with him will continue. Either you or he did something that disappointed each of you and you chose to end the relationship.
"It's just because you haven't had a relationship with him long enough that you haven't encountered anything like that.
"The important thing in life is to remember that each of us is an individual. We may build bonds with others, even die for the ones we love, but while we are still alive, we have the right to look for new people to find new happiness."
Ye Qingyue, "..."
