"I'm not good enough for him anymore. I need to become better... better!"
The idea grew and spread like wildfire in Angela's mind.
This intelligent young woman's heart was completely filled with only Sun Fei. She didn't realize when she started to become like this, nor did she want to know... However, she resolutely began to obsess over this, and this mentality even made her feel ashamed when facing Sun Fei.
Unfortunately, Sun Fei, who calls himself a " Banbu Casanova" but is actually a complete philanderer, failed to notice Angela's mindset.
Dinner was still in progress.
"Oh, right, Alexander, actually Her Highness the Princess also ordered several dresses designed by you... Hmm, she also picked out a few [Milk Armor]..." Angela didn't know what 'Milk' meant, but she thought the word was cute, and then, as if remembering something, she said it naturally.
Sun Fei immediately burst out laughing.
God, Lord, Buddha... Can you imagine a pure, fairy-like girl, standing before you, calmly and seriously saying the word "Milk"? You beast, you beast! Sun Fei couldn't help but scan a certain part of Angela's body, his blood boiling with lust.
"Oh, really? What color did the Princess choose?" Sun Fei Earth Inquiry.
"Red... Oh right, and the blonde little Loli Jima on the other side of the rose table finally finished eating. This little Loli, who was pampered like a little sister by Sun Fei and Angela, tried hard to participate in this slightly inappropriate topic. She tilted her head and thought for a moment before answering, "Her Highness the Princess chose all red [Milk Armor]."
here we go again.
Another innocent Loli, her face impassive and her heart pounding, blurted out the word "breasts." Sun Fei coughed repeatedly, barely managing to keep himself from spitting out the Apple he had just chewed.
" Alexander, are you feeling unwell?"
Seeing Sun Fei's red face and thick neck, Angela Earth Inquiry some concern.
"Uh... no, no, hehe!" Sun Fei changed the subject, saying, "The weather is really nice today..."
Dinner time passed quickly in this enviable and heart-pounding atmosphere—of course, this atmosphere was merely Sun Fei's wishful thinking.
The servants cleared away the dishes, and Angela and Jima went to digest their food. Hand in hand, they decided to go to the palace garden to see the big black dog that had been idly 'hibernating' these past few days.
This Big Black was found by Angela three years ago in the wild behind Chambord City. It was said to have been only the size of a palm at the time, small and adorable. Who knew that in those three years it would grow so rapidly, becoming as big as a calf, incredibly strong. Although it certainly didn't look like Big Black, appearing no different from an ordinary mongrel, this beast was exceptionally intelligent and loyal to Angela and Jima. However, for some reason, it didn't seem to like Sun Fei, its future male owner, baring its teeth and showing utter disdain upon seeing him...
However, ten days ago, this energetic dog suddenly fell into a deep sleep for some unknown reason. No matter how much she called it, she couldn't wake it up. It wouldn't eat or drink all day. Angela consulted the most famous veterinarian in Chambord City, but they couldn't figure out what was wrong. Angela was very anxious about this...
Of course, every outcome has a reason.
Sun Fei hadn't told his beautiful fiancée yet that the reason the dog was in such a half-dead state was because, during his experiment with the [ Hulk Potion ], he had impulsively pried open the dog's mouth and poured half a bottle of the potion down its throat. The poor Big Black hadn't died from the pain, but it was probably still suffering from the [ Hulk Potion ]. His lively figure disappeared through the doorway, and Sun Fei stood up and went to the window of the main hall.
For some reason, Sun Fei suddenly thought of the mysterious princess of the Zenit Empire. This princess was up to no good. She had been in Chambord City for more than ten days, but she never took the initiative to ask to see Sun Fei, the King of the vassal state. She didn't come to see Sun Fei, and Sun Fei didn't go to see her. The two of them were like children Dou Qi, seeing who had more patience and could endure for longer.
"Hehe, she actually chose a red bra. It seems this princess is quite the sly one, hahaha!"
Sun Fei laughed shamelessly.
Lost in his morbid reverie, His Majesty the King failed to notice that his sinister and terrifying appearance had given the servants cleaning the palace goosebumps.
"Your Majesty, the Holy See's Master Mazola and Knight Commander Luciano request an audience."
Just then, a guard suddenly came in to report.
Sun Fei recognized this guard. He was one of the 23 Stonebridge Warriors, named Michael Ballack. He was a burly man who looked honest and righteous. He had a square face, slightly curly black hair, and sharp features. His large, bright eyes gave him a very trustworthy appearance.
Sun Fei at the entrance of the main hall of the palace and saw the priest Mazzola and the knight leader Luciano waiting respectfully at the entrance. Behind them were several neatly dressed squires carrying several large boxes.
Upon seeing Sun Fei, the two men approached with fawning smiles, but Sun Fei didn't even greet them. He simply snorted and went straight into the main hall. The two men, having been snubbed, were extremely embarrassed, but dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction, and obediently waited at the entrance of the hall.
After a while, Shi Ballack came out and said, " King Alexander invites you both in."
Overjoyed, the two hurried inside, gesturing for their attendants and cultivators carrying the large chests to follow. Once inside the hall, they walked on tiptoe, holding their breath in silence, afraid of making any noise that might disturb Sun Fei. Reaching the throne surrounded by two lion-shaped magical beast statues, they immediately prostrated themselves in reverence. "Your Excellency... Mazzola and Luciano greet Your Excellency."
What do you want from me again?
Sitting high on his throne, looking down at the two, Sun Fei neither denied nor confirmed the address of "Sir." However, to Mazzola and the other man, this question was an Sun Fei of his hidden identity, further solidifying their suspicions. They hurriedly and eagerly replied, "We only learned of Your Excellency's true identity today. We greatly admire Your Excellency's status and deeds, so as soon as we finished arranging the church, we immediately came to formally pay our respects and listen to Your Excellency's teachings."
As he spoke, Mazzola gestured to his entourage and the monks to open the two blacksmithing boxes they were carrying. Instantly, beams of multicolored light burst forth from them, and within this light, there was a faint surge of magical power, giving Sun Fei a strange feeling of déjà vu.
"These various magic stones, along with several magic scrolls, are a token of our respect to Your Majesty, Luciano and I. We hope you will like them," Mazzola said obsequiously, gesturing for his attendants to carry the large iron chest to the stone steps beneath the throne.
Sun Fei remained silent.
He walked to the first iron box and looked inside. It was filled with strangely shaped stones of various colors, including red, yellow, blue, and white, radiating a soft light. What was strange was that each stone of a different color emitted a faint magical fluctuation—some gentle, some cold, some fiery, and some heavy. The various magical auras of different attributes rose and fell in the air with the flickering of the different colored lights.
Sun Fei reached out and grabbed one of the magic stones, his brows furrowing slightly.
His heart was filled with astonishment, because these so-called magic stones that Mazzola spoke of were exactly the same as the various [ Chipped Gem ] in Diablo in Sun Fei's eyes. Not only were their appearance and shape identical, but even the faint magical aura contained in the stones was exactly the same. Sun Fei was certain that they were definitely the same thing.
But how did something from the Diablo World end up in the real world? And judging from what Mazzola and Luciano said, while these magic stones are precious, they aren't exactly rare or scarce, otherwise the two of them wouldn't have been able to produce such a large box of them all at once.
Sun Fei tossed the [ Chipped Emerald ] back into the iron box and looked at the other box.
The second iron box didn't contain magic stones, but rather a dozen or so scrolls of various materials, meticulously bound together with fine gold threads. Each scroll was a different color, and while they didn't seem to emit any magical energy, they were covered with densely packed magical patterns, occasionally flashing with subtle light. Although there were only a dozen or so scrolls, Mazzola had used an entire iron box to hold them, demonstrating that the value of these scrolls was definitely no less than that of the box of magic stones.
Despite having previously perused the royal archives of Chambord City, Sun Fei still didn't know much about the profession of mage in the Azeroth Continent. He couldn't discern the level of magic inscribed on the scrolls, nor could he recognize the somewhat obscure and difficult-to-understand magical characters. After picking up and examining dozens of scrolls, he still couldn't figure it out.
"I'll accept these things."
Sun Fei showed no politeness whatsoever. How could he refuse such a valuable gift offered to him? Moreover, the gift was from Mazzola and Luciano, the wretched duo of the Church. Even if he plundered those two completely, Sun Fei would not feel the slightest guilt.
"Ah, that's wonderful! As long as you're happy, sir... as long as you're happy!"
Upon hearing that Sun Fei agreed to accept the gift, the two breathed a sigh of relief, their faces beaming with joy. This meant that the esteemed [ God's Favored One ] was satisfied with their performance and his attitude was beginning to improve. This was a good sign; with a little more effort in the future, they could win even more favor from the lord.
"There's something I'd like to know: how did you know that evil Undead Magic had appeared during the battle of Chambord City?" Sun Fei suddenly asked. "Was it an order from His Holiness the Pope of the Zenit Empire, or did the information come directly from headquarters at Ten Thousand Streams Peak?"
Mazzola and Luciano exchanged a strange glance before Mazzola finally answered honestly, "Your Excellency, this information didn't come from the higher echelons of the Church. It was a mysterious, cloaked man in black, acting strangely, who told us this on our way to Chambord City."
The second update: A college classmate I hadn't seen for four years finally returned from the army, so I made a special trip to Baoding to see him. Time flies, and looking back now feels like a dream.
