[Vol. 3] Chapter 90: Cherish the Present Moment!
Upon hearing that Prince Carloy was beaten up, Ifia immediately became interested.
Although she did not want to get involved with the affairs of the main characters, now that she heard about the Prince Carloy getting beaten, it seemed acceptable to listen to the aftermath. It seemed that Ifia’s anticipation was heard, and at that moment, Jessica continued to speak.
“Originally, we left the palace to search for the missing Prince Carloy. After failing to find any trace, morale was low, and we almost got into a quarrel on the way back. But unexpectedly, as soon as we returned, we saw him!”
“Except for looking a bit worn out, Prince Carloy is unharmed, which immediately relieved the nobles. It should have ended there. After all, finding the person was the best outcome. However…”
Jessica shook her head in silence, but thankfully still remembered Prince Carloy’s status, refraining from using coarse language. However, her expression was filled with disdain.
“Upon seeing us, Prince Carloy lost his temper and wanted to engage in combat with the second prince of the Taric royal family.”
After being imprisoned for several days with restricted food and drink, Prince Carloy was no longer in his usual robust state. Facing off against the second prince of the Taric royal family was clearly an unequal situation, resulting in him being beaten up badly.
At that moment, Jessica silently watched, and with ill intentions, nudged Austin with her elbow, asking why she wasn’t going to help.
Prince Carloy dared to act because he probably felt supported by having “his people” there, so he disregarded the consequences. However, most of the nobles accompanying the envoy were pampered individuals.
Helping out?
Impossible!
After all, if they were to step forward to help, they would end up being the ones getting beaten.
Even though Austin was cunning, of course she wouldn’t act stupid. Instead, she pretended that her prolonged horseback ride had made her feel unwell, thus going up to help would only make matters worse.
Then, with suggestive remarks, she implied that she needed cuddles and kisses more than Prince Carloy did, in order to recover her health. This caused Jessica to roll her eyes in disbelief, too fed up to dignify Austin’s shamelessness with a response.
Therefore, the whole group remained silent, watching as the second prince finished his assault. Afterwards, Irene shed a few tears, and they carried the unconscious Prince Carloy back to his room before each returning to their respective lodgings to rest.
Although the process was somewhat absurd, Jessica was genuinely delighted to see Prince Carloy being beaten up!
Nowadays, she is so excited in her speech that she’s almost dancing with joy. She wishes her literary skills were even higher so that she could have more vocabulary to describe Prince Carloy’s miserable state.
Despite Jessica never particularly liking Prince Carloy, her aversion towards him has multiplied exponentially since arriving in the Taric Kingdom.
“I feel like ever since we boarded the ship, Prince Carloy has lost his mind. His words and actions lack the usual rationality, which is truly perplexing,” Jessica summarized, expressing some doubts.
But considering human fickleness, perhaps leaving the Sith Empire, breaking free from constraints, has revealed Prince Carloy’s true nature. Or maybe…
Jessica glanced discreetly at Miss Barlen, who was speaking with Princess Sissi not far away. Miss Barlen had been shining brightly in the Taric Kingdom recently, not only in appearance but also with her powerful reputation.
Being compared to such an outstanding person made Prince Carloy, who was still acceptable before, seem incompetent. It was like tearing off the veil of shame from the Sith Empire, revealing the truth.
Perhaps it was this revelation that made him so irritable. Especially for someone as arrogant as Prince Carloy, it’s unbearable to see himself inferior to Miss Barlen in every aspect.
“Perhaps it’s just intermittent madness, something us ordinary people cannot comprehend,” Ifia remarked, knowing the original plot and thus understanding the situation.
In the fragments of the storyline, after Prince Carloy was rescued, he had the audacity to blame poor Amelia in his irritable state! Now, his conflict with the second prince of the Taric royal family seems trivial in comparison.
“However, besides Prince Carloy getting beaten up, I also noticed something strange about the members of the Taric royal family,” Jessica continued, revealing her observations after recounting Prince Carloy’s embarrassing incident.
Despite the attempts of the Taric royal family members to conceal it, they always show some flaws that Jessica’s sharp eyes cannot overlook, allowing her to notice the differences. And…
Jessica glanced up at Princess Sissi, who was even more remarkable, as she couldn’t even be bothered to disguise herself. She boldly displayed her red eyes and sharp teeth. It was all very peculiar!
Upon hearing her friend’s question, Ifia hesitated momentarily. She had been debating whether or not to reveal the matter regarding the special species, but considering how frustrating it was to be kept in the dark by the system’s refusal to spoil, she made a decision.
The feeling of being kept in the dark was unpleasant indeed. It wasn’t necessary to reveal everything, but selecting certain details to broaden her friend’s knowledge seemed like a good idea.
As long as she didn’t mention their dealings with the dark elves. So, Ifia selectively touched upon the grudge between the dark elves and the Taric royal family, providing a brief description of the ugly appearance of the dark elves in detail, which left Jessica utterly shocked, her mouth hanging open in disbelief.
“Wow, Ifia, your adventures sound so thrilling and exciting! I really regret not going with you!”
Suddenly hearing about the secrets of the special species, Jessica regretted it so much that she wanted to beat her chest and stamp her feet. She really wanted to see it with her own eyes!
Due to Jessica’s openness to new things, upon being surprised by the existence of the special species, she quickly accepted it after a moment of astonishment.
This was also a major reason why Ifia chose to disclose it. If it were someone else, they would definitely think it was just a made-up story.
Now, with Jessica enthusiastically applauding, Ifia, the narrator, was also very pleased. However, Ifia didn’t forget to give a detailed account of Amelia’s bravery and prowess.
“You should be grateful you didn’t come with us. We encountered an illusion as soon as we entered the Dark Forest. If it weren’t for Amelia deciphering the illusion, we might have all been wiped out.”
Because of the embarrassing affair with the illusion, Ifia felt reluctant to mention it. She had initially wanted to skip over it entirely. However, now, in order to praise Amelia in an elaborate manner, Ifia chose to reveal a little bit.
Every time she praised Amelia, Ifia felt even happier than praising herself. There was a sense of pride and honor, like showing off her own exclusive protector.
Hehe, Amelia, with her exceptional beauty and formidable strength, is Ifia’s… good friend. Others can only envy her.
Today, Ifia, still the stubborn mouthed champion, couldn’t help but feel a sense of joy in her heart as she thought about Amelia. It seemed like Amelia sensed something, causing her to look up.
With the demon’s heightened senses, Amelia could hear clearly even if they were far apart, as long as she was willing. Watching Ifia excitedly recounting their experiences in the Dark Forest, especially when she elaborately praised Amelia, Amelia couldn’t help but lift the corners of her mouth.
She didn’t expect to be held in such high regard by Ifia.
Amelia usually had a stoic expression. Even though she was stunningly beautiful, her sharp and aggressive demeanor made people hesitant to look at her. However, as long as there was a hint of warmth in her expression, that beauty would transform into astonishing charm.
Just like now, seeing Amelia’s smile, those around couldn’t help but steal glances, their eyes revealing admiration.
Powerful and beautiful, Amelia Barlen is the perfect ideal for all the people of the Taric Kingdom.
Unfortunately, it seems like she already has a partner…
Ifia’s anticipated unfortunate outcome had come. When Jessica eagerly questioned about the illusions, Ifia hesitated and responded vaguely, attributing it to partial memory loss.
However, apart from that, she could vividly describe the horrors of fellow travelers being consumed by the illusions. Hearing this, Jessica trembled in fear and no longer clamored to go on adventures together!
As a fan who liked to observe from the shadows, Jessica had always paid attention to Amelia Barlen. It could be said that she had witnessed firsthand how Amelia, once as aloof as a lone wolf, gradually became more humane, like a high mountain flower plucked and infused with worldly fragrance.
Therefore, regarding Miss Barlen’s previous style of behavior, Jessica was well aware… Despite appearing noble and elegant, she was actually extremely indifferent. In simple terms, it was “others’ life or death, none of my concern”!
Thus, even though she wasn’t present, Jessica could guess that Miss Barlen solved the illusion so quickly because of Ifia. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have bothered with others.
In other words, Princess Sissi and the others were able to return safely, all thanks to Ifia. By calculation, rounding off, Ifia was indeed their great benefactor! Princess Sissi and the others should be very grateful to Ifia.
“Miss Ifia, regarding the reward for the mission, I will handle it as soon as possible. You will have the results by tomorrow at the latest.”
As Jessica was pondering these thoughts, Princess Sissi was also reminded by Amelia and promptly approached to discuss the reward, which made Ifia immediately smile with delight. Next, they would await the arrival of the gold…
……
Originally, Ifia thought the Taric royal family would drag their feet, but to her surprise, everything was delivered the next day. Amelia had someone send it to the fleet, ready for departure back to the country this afternoon. This swift departure made Ifia breathe a sigh of relief.
After Amelia proposed the return voyage, other nobles in the envoy did express objections. However, when Amelia said, “If you love the Taric Kingdom, then stay,” they were silenced.
As for Prince Carloy? After being severely beaten by the second prince of the Taric royal family and being weak from days of confinement, he remained unconscious. Therefore, after rejecting the Taric royal family and Princess Sissi’s pleas, the Sith Empire envoy set sail.
It’s worth mentioning that due to the sudden departure, other nobles didn’t have time to exchange their gold…
Only Jessica and Austin, who received insider information in advance, as well as some others who prepared in advance, made a fortune this time. Others could only regret and sigh in frustration.
Standing on the bow of the ship, Jessica’s mouth couldn’t stop curving upwards due to her overflowing coffers, so she had to use words to divert attention.
“This departure feels a bit hasty, I wonder when we’ll have the chance to come back again.”
Beside her, Ifia felt a pang of guilt as she raised a hand to touch her nose, wishing she could tell Jessica that there wouldn’t be a next time. Cherish the present!
She also wondered when the dark elves, who had cured the curse of abandonment, would strike against the Taric royal family.
How would the Taric royal family respond? Ifia was curious about this, but not overly so. As the fleet turned and set sail back to their homeland, everything related to the Taric Kingdom was left behind, no longer of concern.
Now, she should carefully consider how to spend the enormous amount of money she had acquired overnight!
While Ifia and Jessica engaged in conversation, Amelia, who had previously excused herself to find the captain, stood alone at the rear of the ship.
The sea breeze fluttered, causing her silver hair to billow as her purple eyes remained indifferent, staring at the gradually receding Taric Kingdom. Suddenly, she smiled. At that moment, demon horns emerged, and her red eyes flashed with a cold and ruthless light.
Without anything offending the demons, they could continue to live unscathed. Therefore, the Abyssal Domain instantly unfolded, disregarding the protections of the world’s rules.
Countless magical energies transformed into black threads, rushing towards the Dark Forest at great speed. They then entwined around the necks of the dark elves, causing them to struggle desperately.
Elder Sylei was surrounded by countless black threads, and amidst its terrified screams, the black threads suddenly became extremely sharp, piercing its body instantly.
At the same time, the black threads pierced the hearts of the dark elves, binding their souls and directly swallowing them into the Abyssal Domain.
The dark elf clan of the Taric Kingdom, who had just been cured of the curse of abandonment, did not escape this calamity.
They were wiped out, with none spared.
