Chapter 124

No reply was heard, but it continued to talk,

"The next time I meet that scumbag, his life will end right there .

"

The green meadows swayed as the wind gently brushed passed the while silhouette, making it obscure .

"If it weren't for you who pleaded for him, I would've killed him regardless if he's being protected or not .

"

"You!

" The white silhouette's voice trembled, it then flicked its sleeves as it destroyed the surrounding meadows .

"What do you find so special in him!?

" Its voice sounded irritated .

"That trash has forgotten about you the moment he is with another woman .

" It sneered as it argued back .

Harrumphing in a cold voice, it questioned,

"What do you know about men? I have lived for over 50,000 years and I didn't find not one of them reliable and trustable!

"

As if it heard something delusional, it sighed,

"You're hopeless! But I do agree that thanks to him, what is supposed to be difficult than ascending the heavens had been made much easier .

"

It looked around the area and uttered,

"I don't want to stay here anymore . The only way to increase our power is to gain that immortal inheritance which he mentioned before to you .

"

Nodding its head in agreement, it answered in a cold voice,

"Alright, I promise that I won't touch him . . . But that depends on him . If I see him again then he will be dead without doubt .

"

. . .

Davis and Evelynn's journey continued for about three weeks .

During this time, they dropped by many towns, and kingdoms .

They were welcomed and treated extravagantly by all the people .

They faced no hindrance as they were dressed luxuriously, symbolising that they were from the Royal Family . Their journey was smooth without any trouble .

Their relationship grew as they talked to each other, shared many of their past experiences, discussed about the world .

Not only that, but there were many awkward and slightly amorous moments in their journey which made Evelynn's heart flutter as she experienced being a maiden in love .

But to Davis, it was outright hell .

He wanted to kiss her, but couldn't . He wanted to make her feel good, but couldn't .

Halfway through the journey, he gave up as he cursed himself and the heavens for still having an adult-like mentality with the body of a child even though he looked like a teenager . It was like a limiter that disallowed him from taking the next step in their relationship .

"I want to die . . .

" Just when Davis muttered listlessly, Evelynn suddenly shouted,

"Look!

"

David got up and looked at the horizon ahead of him . His long hair swayed gracefully as the wind brushed past him .

The Golden-Horned Wyvern roared as it suddenly sped up .

"Looks like we have arrived . . .

" Davis said with a smile on his face . He looked at the distant red walls which had numerous blazing flame emblems on it .

On top of the walls were several silhouettes, they stood as if they were waiting for something or someone .

"Who are they?

" Evelynn tried to focus her gaze but her vision couldn't get that far .

"Yo, the Ashton Emperor is personally here to welcome us . Looks like he hasn't still given up yet .

" Davis cleared his thoughts and said in a comical tone .

Evelynn giggled at his comment and nodded her head .

During the time she spent with him, he had talked to her about how he felt on having two engagements . He even explained how his and Shirley's engagement got cancelled from his point of view .

She took all those with a pinch of salt, half believing, half disbelieving .

Before she left, her father had warned her about many things, and one thing he mentioned was that men lie or exaggerate about some matters concerning their women .

Evelynn decided to follow her father's advice and be cautious whenever their topic dwelled to another woman .

She held his hands and looked straight with disordered breaths as she felt somewhat uneasy .

Davis kept looking towards the walls . He was able to identify the appearances of the silhouettes that were in the distance .

'Hmm? Shirley is standing there too? Haha, she must have been forced by her father to come over to personally welcome me as well . Holy moly! It feels good to be a person who is respected and revered by others!' Davis thought as he was finally able to realise one of his long-forgotten fantasies from his previous life .

The Golden-Horned Wyvern neared the walls as it roared again . It did a backflip as it plummeted down beside the walls .

Davis cursed it in his mind, but he picked up Evelynn and jumped off from the saddle, making a perfect entrance by landing on the walls while holding her in a princess carry .

He then let her down as he searched for that golden-horny wyvern .

From the direction of the outskirts, it floated up slowly as it flapped its wings and landed on a guard tower .

The guards were horrified but didn't attack it as they knew who this mount belonged to .

Davis swore that one day he would make it suffer, but thinking about how it carried them for almost a month, he couldn't help but smile at its playfulness .

He turned his head and clasped his hands,

"Davis Loret from the Loret Empire, greets Emperor Ashton!

"

Evelynn who got nervous from the fall hurriedly clasped her hands and bowed slightly,

"Evelynn Cauldon, Fiancee of the Crown Prince of Loret Empire, greets Emperor Ashton!

"

Davis widened his eyes slightly and let out a grin as he felt fortunate from her introduction .

"Hahaha! Good! Good! What an intimate couple! That landing was almost perfect except the part for her clumsiness!

" Emperor Ashton laughed loudly .

Davis smiled wryly as he knew that this man was always straightforward with his comments .

But in this situation, it was like he made a jab at Evelynn's self-confidence .

And as he expected, Evelynn blushed slightly from shame, but surprisingly stood her ground as she held his hands while putting up an elegant facade .
