The Special Envoy
"Who is she?"
This question sounds familiar.
Kang De then realized what he had overlooked.
Back in Myanmar, Iron Son had reminded him to remove the scent he'd picked up from Xiaoman to avoid being detected— Leona was one thing, but her nose wasn't that sensitive, nor was she close enough to sniff him so closely...
But A Xing will.
Although A Xing has transformed into a stunningly beautiful, aloof, and capable woman, her attitude towards me remains exactly the same as it was on the Holy Seal Archipelago. She'll cling to me, hug me, and even remind me not to drink too much, eat and drink healthily, and sleep on time. She'll also rub against me without any restraint.
And it also inherited that beast-like sense of smell and intuition...
"Who is she?"
Xiaoman only saw the knight's cross-dressing photo, while A Xing smelled the scent.
And it gave off a soul-searching look that seemed to say, "You've got another cat out there."
A Xing gazed at Kang De, a faint light gleaming in his golden eyes, and asked once more, "Who is she?"
Seeing that Kang De remained silent, she pouted slightly, and her voice changed a little. "Is it your wife?"
"... Of course not," Kang De immediately said, "It's Xiaoman (the 14th solar term)."
"Xiaoman is... Old Wang?" A Xing's voice rose eight octaves. "She's a woman?"
Kang De asked doubtfully, "Otherwise what?"
A Xing's mouth dropped open in surprise. "You never told me this before!"
Kang De was even more confused. "Didn't I say that?"
A Xing came to his senses, his cheeks puffed up completely.
He even looked somewhat exasperated.
It's like a childhood sweetheart heroine and a new girl who suddenly appears in the story. After a long period of open and covert struggles, battles of wits and courage, and even when they think they have the upper hand, they discover that the male lead actually has a childhood promise and memories with another woman who suddenly appears.
This kind of shock is the most fucked up and infuriating.
Because A Xing's biggest advantage over Tina is "I always got there first," he's practically a junior compared to Xiaoman Man.
She stared at Kang De, her expression shifting like magic, after all, not long ago she was just a carefree gorilla, and no one had ever taught her about matters of the heart.
A Xing's situation is actually quite strange.
Having taken on a human form, she lies between human and beast in terms of intelligence and instinct, vaguely possessing human shame and morality, yet sometimes acting on animalistic intuition. Faced with the current situation, she is both anxious and angry, and then lets out a howl as she hugs Kang De.
Rub and rub hard, from top to bottom, from left to right.
"Stop, stop, something's not right with this business."
The A Xing's tall, voluptuous body rolled and rubbed against him, providing the ultimate in pleasure. It was clearly a very enjoyable thing, but the thought of the other party's gorilla form made Kang De feel very strange. Moreover, it was really not right to take advantage of the A Xing so easily, given its trust and lack of vigilance.
Seeing that the A Xing was even leaning in to move its tongue, Kang De was startled. "Hey, what are you doing?"
A Xing said in a muffled voice, "Kang De can only have my scent on him!"
"Don't do this, don't do this..." Kang De tried to dodge the little pink tongue, complaining, "Even Xiaoman didn't treat me like this."
As soon as he finished speaking, A Xing stopped what he was doing. "Really?"
Kang De said helplessly, "Of course it's true. Who would act like you? A young lady like you should be more reserved."
A Xing's mood visibly improved suddenly.
With a soft smack, Kang De felt a warm, wet sensation on his cheek as A Xing licked him like a pervert. Ah Xing smiled broadly, as if he had won a battle.
"Really..."
No one would be angry if a beautiful girl of this caliber did this to them.
Kang De sighed, pushed A Xing aside, sat up, and looked at the sky. He had been on Earth for two more days; it was probably afternoon here in the other world. "Is everything alright?"
A Xing said, "Yes, Hong San has come looking for you twice."
Kang De suddenly stood up, walked towards the door, and nodded, saying, "Yes, it must be urgent."
A Xing pursed his lips, stood up as well, watched Kang De's retreating figure, then chuckled again, reaching up to touch his lips, seemingly still savoring the memory...
After all, she had only recently become human, and many of her instincts and consciousness were still as chaotic as those of an animal. She couldn't describe how she felt at this moment, and could only simply and bluntly summarize it in two words—it felt amazing.
Kang De opened the door and called for Hong San Hong San arrived as quickly as possible.
Your Highness.
Hong San didn't say much, nor did he ask any questions. After bowing, he said directly, "The elven envoy arrived three hours ago, causing some commotion. Everyone is waiting for you."
A miraculous victory cannot build the confidence of the entire nation, because confidence and fervor are built on Kang De himself. Everyone understands that whether the arrival of the angelic messenger brings the clarion call of war or a peace treaty can only be decided by Kang De and the other side.
Kang De nodded and said, "The fact that the A Xing is still here guarding me means they haven't resorted to violence, and nothing unpleasant has happened yet."
Your Highness is wise.
Hong San said, "In fact, we only saw the Gryphon Rangers and Pegasus Knights escorting the Starshining Phoenix as it descended from the sky. They did not enter the city, nor did they approach Valentan, nor did they send any messengers to issue a note. Instead, they paid their respects and commemorated the site at the battlefield ruins."
Kang De smiled. "Is this the arrogance of an elf?"
Hong San replied, "Of course. They consider themselves a superior race, arrogant and conceited, and despise humans. Even if they suffer defeat and are forced to send envoys, they will never stoop to such a lowly position. That word simply doesn't exist in their dictionary."
Kang De walked alongside him, with A Xing following behind. The two engaged in a question-and-answer dialogue, and all the maids and stewards they encountered along the way bowed and stepped aside, their eyes filled with reverence and admiration.
As members of the Vidal Chamber of Commerce, and among the people in the city who had the closest daily contact with Kang De, they had every reason to revere Kang De.
The arrival of the elves' messengers stirred up unrest and much discussion, but all the unease ended at this moment, because Prince Kang De, who had remained silent and inactive until now, finally emerged from his room.
Kang De gazed at the sunlight outside and said softly, "Looks like I'll have to help the elves compile a dictionary."
Hong San exchanged a smile with him.
Kang De asked, "How do you think we should deal with these guests who have come from afar?"
Hong San, already confident and prepared with his prepared remarks, replied without hesitation, "The elves were extremely arrogant, but we and they all know that the elves lost this time. This is common knowledge. However, as a world hegemon and an old empire, the elves value their dignity and face extremely highly."
"Goth's country was weak, and the crisis of national subjugation was not yet over. Substance was more important than appearance. In other words, if the appearance of the spirits was taken care of, they would make concessions on the substantive aspects. Therefore, from Goth's point of view, he should have acted proactively and even humbly."
Kang De glanced at him. "So we need to be proactive?"
"Wrong!"
Hong San stated decisively, "That was from Goth's perspective. But Your Highness doesn't just represent Goth, or even primarily Goth! Because you are the one who defeated the elves. As a powerful being with immense destructive force, you will undoubtedly awe the entire world. It's no exaggeration to say that the whole world is watching you. Therefore, you must demonstrate to the elves and the world your pride and stature as an unparalleled powerhouse and a strategic deterrent!"
"Because in this world, mere humility and kindness will not earn respect; instead, they will become a reason for people to take advantage. Only the humility and kindness of the strong will be respected. As the victor, you must spread the name of the strong! Because in this world, there is no reason for the winner to be subservient!"
Hong San's tone was resolute.
He is a world apart from his previous subservient, complacent, and even obsequious self.
Kang De nodded and said, "That's right. Although I don't know much about the art of diplomatic negotiation, I certainly won't act like a coward to the elves."
Hong San laughed and said, "So, please show us the intimidating power and arrogance of a peerless expert."
"Yes, I understand." Kang De closed his eyes, then opened them again, his gaze now different. He said calmly, "Did the elves get my permission to go and pay respects to the souls of the battlefield?"
Hong San looked at Kang De, nodded and smiled, "That's exactly the feeling—I do have a plan."
He pondered for a moment and said, "According to the conventional rules of the battlefield, everything belonging to the loser, including their corpses, belongs to the victor; it is the victor's spoils. All the remains, fragments, and surviving weapons and supplies of that battlefield ruins belong to you. Therefore, for the past two days, I have organized women and children to collect and weave vines and brambles to enclose a part of the battlefield and put up signs saying that this is His Highness Kang De's private property, and a visitor fee is required."
"You're planning to charge them?" Kang De laughed. "What's the price?"
Hong San flashed his gleaming teeth. "One copper coin per person, double for elves, double for trespassing, pets are free, souvenirs will be charged separately, and food for pets inside will also be charged separately."
"Damn, you're so mean."
Kang De clicked his tongue and said, "Don't let the elves kill the ones we send to collect fees."
"Don't worry, I'll arrange it. The elves might not dare to make a move, because making a move would mean ruining the peace talks, and given the elves' so-called etiquette and rules, they wouldn't do that."
Hong San said, "Please sit here and wait a moment, Your Highness. If the elves don't take the initiative, we have plenty of ways to torment them. If they consider themselves a powerful empire and are arrogant and conceited, we'll teach them a lesson. It's just that this method is a bit underhanded, but it doesn't matter. In the eyes of the elves, we are all barbarians anyway."
Kang De nodded, not caring about that. "So who is the elven envoy?"
Hong San replied, "I still don't know his identity, but the scouts report that judging from his attire and entourage, he should be a prince."
