"Alice Princess, please go back to the palace first, and Nicole, you go home. I'll visit your mother's house later and deliver the letter tomorrow," Edgar stood on the dock, smiling at Alice and Nicole and said slowly.
"Yes, I haven't seen my mother for two months. See you tomorrow! Nicole, I'm leaving first!" Alice smiled and got on the royal carriage.
"Nicole, I'll send someone to escort you home. I'll visit your father and mother later," Edgar smiled and held the little girl in his arms. He kissed her lips and indulgently sucked her saliva in the air.
Nicole blushed and softened in Edgar's arms, looked at Edgar and said, "You have to hurry up! Anyway, Mother doesn't like that Lis!" Nicole didn't know that there was no longer a family of Flames or a Lis in the world.
"Yes, I will!" Edgar smiled and let go of Nicole, calling over a team of soldiers to escort her home.
"Yes, how does it taste?" Suddenly, Sun Shangxiang jumped out, bending over and smiling at Edgar.
"Good, but I'm more interested in tasting your taste now!" Edgar winked and hugged Sun Shangxiang from the waist. Sun Shangxiang jumped a long way away, stuck out her tongue at Edgar and said, "It seems that the prince wants to catch me, but he still has a long way to go!"
"There's no way out of my hand!" Edgar paused for a moment, looked at Sun Shangxiang and smiled, then darted after her. Unfortunately, Sun Shangxiang's speed was quite fast, and Edgar had to exert all his effort to spray her.
"Sun Shangxiang, don't play anymore! We have something to do! Let's go!" Edgar gave up catching her and stood on the side, smiling at Sun Shangxiang.
"Is the prince going to propose?" Sun Shangxiang smiled and asked Edgar.
"Yes! Sun Shangxiang, would you be my bride?" Edgar smiled, even though Sun Shangxiang had just been summoned for a short while, but it felt like they had known each other for many years. Even joking at this level, Sun Shangxiang would not get angry.
"No way! I'm going to find Red Alda!" Sun Shangxiang smiled and darted onto the boat. Sun Shangxiang's temperament was similar to that of Red Alda, and the two of them became very good friends without taking long.
"Prince, the hotel has been arranged, shall we leave now?" Rebi, who had finished negotiating with the diplomat from the Morning Star Elf Kingdom, came over to ask Edgar for instructions.
"Yes, let's go to the inn first. Oswin?" Edgar frowned. Since the inn had been arranged, of course they should move in immediately. But at this critical moment, Oswin was nowhere to be found.
"In the morning, Oswin大人 had looked for the prince, but the prince was not there. Oswin大人 told the prince to relax, saying that he would not delay the prince's business!" Rebi bowed and slowly explained.
"Yes, I understand. Prepare everything and leave one person here to inform Oswin Lord, we're leaving!" Edgar thought for a moment and instructed Rebi. He thought, "After meeting the elf queen and establishing diplomatic relations tomorrow, we'll build an embassy directly. Then we won't have to stay in a hotel anymore."
"Yes, Lord!" Rebi bowed and noted down all the arrangements. He began to make a schedule. Edgar nodded when he saw that everything was arranged, and walked back to the yacht satisfied.
The Luna City dock is directly connected to the upper, middle, and lower levels of Luna City. The elves use a type of unicorn-like creature as a mount and also use it to pull carts. Edgar and the elf diplomat rode in a diplomatic car at the front, followed by a dozen carts carrying goods. The entire team, in a long procession, headed towards the guesthouse.
Edgar had never seen an elf city before. The foundation of this city was twenty-eight elf trees. These elf trees were much larger than the ones Edgar had seen in Silver Lake last time. Under the natural magic of the elves, the twenty-eight elf trees were divided into three levels - upper, middle, and lower. Many tree trunks similar to stairs connected the three levels.
There were huge silver or green thick fruit on the tree trunks. The silver thick-wood fruit is ripe, and you can build structures inside it by emptying the cavity. The green ones are still growing.
"Is Prince satisfied with this place, Your Highness?" the diplomat asked, getting out of the carriage and showing Edgar the inn inside and out. He smiled and asked.
"Not bad, a bit bigger," Edgar smiled. The elf inn was indeed nice. The inn had an area of several football fields. The thick-wood fruit shell was used to build the elf-style hollow buildings, with delicate architecture, intricate hollow patterns, and all showing the unique art of the elves.
"As long as Prince is satisfied, that's all that matters! I'll leave now, Your Highness. Please let me know if you need anything!" The diplomat smiled and said after seeing that Edgar was satisfied. He then went back to the palace to deliver orders.
"Where did you go?" At 10:30 in the morning, Oswin arrived at the inn safely. Edgar frowned and asked, looking at Oswin, who looked somewhat disheveled.
"I met a few good opponents and fought with them. Everything is settled now! Please wait a moment, Your Highness. I'll change my clothes and we can leave immediately!" Oswin smiled. Although his clothes were disheveled, his demeanor and aura were still as calm and elegant as before.
"Yes, everything is ready. Go and change first!" Edgar nodded. He was quite lenient with his subordinates, as they would not betray him anyway. Edgar said goodbye to Oswin and walked quickly to the Red Alda room. Sure enough, Red Alda, Blue Alda, and Sun Shangxiang were all here. The three women were sitting together, talking earnestly.
"Red Alda, Blue Alda, Sun Shangxiang, I'm coming for you! I will hold a grand wedding to marry you in the future!" Edgar opened the door and the three of them turned to look at him. Edgar looked at them earnestly and said.
"We'll talk about it later. For now, you should take care of Nicole first!" The three of them were taken aback and felt a touch of gratitude. No woman wants a grand wedding. Sun Shangxiang was the first to recover from her emotions and smiled at Edgar and said.
"Okay then! I'm coming!" Edgar smiled and closed the door. He then boarded the special carriage of Luna City and headed for the Moon Morning family.
Edgar was now heading for the Moon Morning family, accompanied by Oswin. Edgar changed to a plain carriage and after half an hour's journey, the caravan arrived safely at the shell where the Moon Morning family was located.
Edgar got off the carriage, and Reno rushed to the door and threw the invitation inside. The guard at the door looked at the invitation and was startled. He hurriedly went inside.
"Prince, our lord of the house has a message for you!" A middle-aged butler appeared soon and bowed respectfully.
"Raybe, you take care of these things!" Edgar nodded and instructed Raybe. Edgar himself only took Oswin with him and followed the butler inside.
The butler led Edgar and Oswin to the living room, where a thirty-something elf was sitting in a chair, watching Edgar with interest.
"Lord, Prince Edgar has arrived!" the butler bowed to the person in the room and said hurriedly.
"Yes, you may leave. Have the lady come here," Taylor Moonrise looked at Edgar and thought to himself, "What a strange young man. He looks like he's in his early twenties, but his level of cultivation is the same as mine. And the person behind him, I can't see through him at all. At least he has saint-level cultivation. The Starry Kingdom is indeed powerful. A prince has a saint-level person by his side."
"Prince, please sit," Taylor knew what Edgar was here for, but he didn't show any expression. He stood up and bowed to Edgar, inviting him to sit down.
"Thank you, Lord. I came here today unannounced, so please forgive me," Edgar smiled and didn't mind. He and Taylor had never met before, so if he was too enthusiastic, it would seem like Taylor was trying to climb the ladder of success.
"You are the prince of the Starry Kingdom, Edgar?" Just then, a woman in her thirties walked into the living room. When she saw Edgar, her eyes lit up, and she smiled and asked.
"I am Edgar, and this is my chancellor, Oswin. Hello, madam," Edgar smiled and said slowly. Look at the woman, who is only about twenty years old, with a slender and seductive figure, and her face bears a resemblance to Nicole's, Edgar immediately understood that this person was probably Nicole's biological mother.
"Thank you, Prince, for saving my daughter this time!" Scythe looked at Edgar and bowed. Edgar was more familiar to her than anyone else, after combining the information from the Starforge family and Nicole's account, Scythe felt that Edgar was much better than Rice.
"Madam, there's no need for that. Anyone would have done the same in that situation," Edgar stood up and quickly returned the favor, thinking to himself, "This is the future mother-in-law. And according to Nicole, she's the real boss at home."
"I wonder what Prince has come here for?" Scythe sat beside her husband, looking at Edgar and liking him more and more. She watched Edgar playfully smiling and slowly asked.
"The prince fell in love with Nicole at first sight and hopes that Madam will sacrifice Nicole and give her to the prince," Oswin smiled and stood up, looking at the Taylor couple.
"But Nicole has already been engaged to the young lord of the Flame family..." Taylor knew that Rice was already dead and buried, but he had to mention it anyway. "Why say so, Lord? The House of Flames has already been destroyed by fire last night, and Lord Rice is dead. Does Lord Rice want Lady Nicole to mourn for a dead man?" Oswin seemed to have been prepared for this, and spoke calmly.
"Yes, since Lord Rice is dead, my dear daughter has the right to choose again! But this matter still depends on Lady Nicole's opinion," said Sigi before her husband could speak, and stepped forward, looking at Edgar.
"Then, where is Lady Nicole? We can ask her opinion," Oswin smiled. Since Nicole is free to choose, the matter is basically settled. Oswin has seen Nicole's performance on the ship very clearly. Nicole saw that everyone was looking at her, blushed, lowered her head, and twisted her skirt with her small hand.
"Bring the lady to the drawing room," Sigi nodded and said to the waiting servants outside. Today, Sigi has been asking Nicole about the journey since she returned, and is very clear about Nicole's performance. If there is no unexpected event, this marriage is almost certain.
After a while, Nicole walked in wearing a sky-blue long dress. When she saw Edgar, she was delighted and walked up to him, calling him "Father, Mother, Prince."
"Nicole, will you marry me?" Edgar walked up to Nicole and knelt down, holding the engagement ring he had prepared earlier, staring fixedly at Nicole.
"Yes!" Nicole's face flushed red, not expecting Edgar to pull out this move. Red-faced, she lowered her head and twisted her skirt, nodding lightly and taking the ring from Edgar's hand. (It seems that they got engaged twice, with two engagement rings, but the first one was brief and informal, so please don't get hung up on that here.)
"Yes, congratulations!" Oswin smiled when he saw Nicole accept Edgar's proposal. Taylor and Spike also smiled, as they actually agreed to Nicole and Edgar's marriage in principle.
First, Edgar and Nicole are in love, and second, Edgar's strength is great. Now, everyone can guess that the destruction of the Flame family was caused by this person. None of the people present are fools, and it is a good thing for everyone to ally with such a powerful force.
As for Edgar's numerous female companions, that is not the main reason. Edgar is a prince, the future king, having three thousand beautiful women in his harem is nothing unusual.
"We'll have a formal engagement ceremony after meeting the queen!" Edgar smiled and took Nicole's hand back to their seats. Nicole's face turned even redder when she heard Edgar's words.
