Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds-Chapter 389 - 389 Will You Marry My Daughter?
389 Will You Marry My Daughter?
The Grand Duke relented.
Tedrell’s most precious treasure.
Tina begged for a long time.
He wished he could give it to Kang De when they first met.
Tina felt that Kang De needed it very much.
This was because this treasure could help Kang De break… oh, no, complete his life.
The princess hoped that Kang De could cherish it.
Therefore…
“…Is it you?”
Most importantly, Kang De’s mind was still in a daze.
This was because he had just received a huge amount of information from Stella.
—About how he quickly and suddenly killed three Dragoons and caused the financial report of the Dragon Security Company to explode, I’m going to be hacked to death by the Dragon Emperor and his lackeys who were jointly pressured by the shareholders.
His mind was filled with thoughts of bringing the land shield number 2000 and the red flag number 17 to be a monster hunter. Sigh, dragon lords, don’t be afraid. As the name suggested, any dragon with any common sense knew that these two things were only a shield and flag…
Because the computing power on serious matters in his mind was all placed on this matter, at this moment, only the part of lust was driving his brain’s thinking circuit.
Therefore, the more he listened, the stranger it became. It was not surprising that he even asked this question.
Kang De was even a little excited.
How bold.
—Why do you need your father’s permission to sacrifice yourself? Can you tell me about this? Won’t you secretly take off your clothes at night and crawl into my bed?
Although I was very vigilant and awake, if it was such a thing, I would definitely pretend to be asleep.
He pretended to be in a dream.
Then, Kang De discovered that Tina’s face was quickly red as if it was on fire.
Her bright eyes widened slightly and she revealed a surprised and enlightened expression, followed by panic.
Then, starlight flashed through her beautiful eyes. Her face flushed red, and a shy smile appeared on her lips. Her eyes rolled as she cast a reproachful glance, but the corners of her eyes fluttered with affection.
In all kinds of games that emphasized technology and consciousness, rookies could also be struck by a miracle.
“…Pfft, hahahahaha!”
The laughter came from Tina’s second sister. Stella watched this shocking conversation forcefully and laughed loudly. She covered her mouth and bent down in laughter. Then, she hugged her sister and pointed at Kang De. “The two of you… Hahahahaha… I actually don’t know which of you did it on purpose…”
Only then did Kang De return to his senses. He had misunderstood.
He looked at Kang De in front of him. The girl’s blushing cheeks were as tempting as apples, but what was even more tempting than her beautiful face was her bright eyes that rippled like spring water.
This made his heart tremble slightly.
Tina was hugged by her second sister, but she kept looking at Kang De. When she saw the other party’s gaze, she lowered her head and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito, “What nonsense are you talking about… What kind of treasure am I?”
Kang De was instantly enlightened.
Logically speaking, even a rookie who had accidentally shot his opponent until he knelt on the ground with low health knew how to go up and loot.
He touched his head. “Treasure? After thinking about it, I can only think of you.”
Tina said softly, “But you don’t need Father’s approval…”
At this point, the two of them stopped talking. However, they looked at each other.
Stella’s smile slowly stiffened.
She suddenly felt that this joke was not funny anymore. The sister in her arms was no longer fun. She even thought of the Grand Duke’s banquet. She did not feel hungry anymore. Instead, she inexplicably felt full.
Tina felt her second sister’s gradually stiffening body and the corners of her mouth curled up.
She calmly broke free from Stella’s arms, then came to Kang De’s side and took his arm. She said gently, “Let’s go.”
“…”
Her affectionate gaze and soft and wide chest were simply like a spell.
Kang De smiled foolishly the entire time. He was useless.
The corners of Stella’s eyes twitched as she followed the adulterous couple out of the room. She wanted to protest, but she did not expect Tina to turn around and smile. “Goodbye, Second Sister.”
“What…” The Second Princess said in surprise, “What do you mean by goodbye? Didn’t you say that there was a banquet?”
“But…” Tina said in a difficult manner, “Father only said that Kang De and I should go.”
“…”
“…”
“Ahahaha, I see. Father is really…”
With an obviously fake smile, Stella exchanged pleasantries and bade farewell.
However, compared to his elegant and calm footsteps earlier, this time, he was clearly much more rushed.
Kang De and Tina watched their second sister leave. They suddenly heard the girl beside them say in a low voice, “Take a few more steps… Hmm, it’s time for her to bite her finger with her teeth…”
As expected, Stella’s right arm moved. Although he could only see her back, his right hand had indeed moved up—Kang De looked at Tina with a subtle expression.
Tina smiled and said, “I really want to see her current expression…”
She noticed Kang De’s gaze and turned around, her eyes turning into crescents. “What’s wrong?”
Kang De said with a strange expression, “You said that your second sister likes to tease people the most, but why do I feel that you’ve been teasing her from the beginning to the end…”
“How can that be? Second Sister has bullied and teased me since I was young. Today, she even wanted to tease me in front of you. I thought that it was not easy to be alone, but who knew that Second Sister would beat me to it again? I don’t know what strange things she said to you. When I think of this, I want to tease her a little…”
At this point, Tina carefully glanced at Kang De. “Kang De won’t be angry, right?”
“Hmm? Why should I be angry about such a thing?” Kang De said. “I just feel that it’s unbelievable that Tina actually knows how to tease people.”
“Yes, I’m very curious too. When I returned this time, I felt that everything was different. As long as I think about many things, I can definitely think of them. I can tell what others are thinking, know Second Sister’s weakness, and know how to convince Father…”
Tina looked at Kang De and said gently, “However, understanding it is one thing. The most important thing is the courage to do it if you want to. Previously, even if I understood, I didn’t want to do it. Now, I know how to do it. If I want to tease my sister, I’ll do it. If I want to convince Father, I’ll think of a way to convince him. If I make up my mind, there must be a result. I won’t stop or give up until I achieve my goal…”
She had been hugging Kang De. At this moment, her hands hugged him even tighter. Her hot body transmitted hot temperature through her clothes, transmitting her body temperature, heart, and softness.
Tina leaned her cheek close to Kang De’s arm. “Because with Kang De around, with him around, you have the courage to do whatever you want and won’t be afraid of anything…”
“…”
Kang De clearly did not know what expression to show.
From today onwards, he had resolved the knot in his heart with Tina. This princess, who was still gentle, shy, beautiful, and elegant in his impression, had launched a violent and lightning-like attack on him.
This made Kang De secretly happy and flustered.
After all, he did not have much experience.
At this moment, Tina’s combo reached the EX stage.
She leaned against Kang De’s arm and said softly, “Kang De, the current Tina will bully Second Sister, but in front of you, I’m still that carefree innocent princess on the Holy Seal Islands. If I want to be protected by you, I don’t have to consider anything and won’t bully anyone… I’ll only be bullied by you, okay?”
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
—Reject! My mouth! My brain! Why are you only watching?! Have you betrayed me too?!
Therefore, before the banquet, Kang De maintained a silly smile.
As for the gorilla…
The gorilla closed the door and hid in her room. She covered herself with the blanket and watched the Japanese cartoon recommended by Horus.
Banquet.
Although it was a banquet, there were only four participants.
Grand Duke Leckos of Goethe, Sword Saint Hillmelia of Snowfall, and the couple, Kang De and Tina.
“I heard from Tina that you don’t like complicated etiquette and don’t know much about the noble etiquette on the continent, Kang De. Therefore, I removed the band and only kept the maid in charge of passing the vegetables.”
In the candlelight, the Grand Duke raised his glass. “I hope this doesn’t make you feel unhappy.”
Kang De raised his glass and replied, “No, this is more comfortable.”
Because it was a banquet of four, in order to facilitate conversation, they used a short table and did not follow the strict seating rules. Kang De sat with Tina, and opposite them were the Grand Duke and his sister.
It was originally arranged like this, but Hillmelia seemed to despise her cheap brother very much and forcefully squeezed to Kang De’s side to sit, so now it was three against one.
After raising his glass, the Grand Duke took a sip of wine. The battle had ended and he was busy with government affairs. He indeed needed alcohol to relax… However, looking at the scene in front of him, he really could not relax.
His daughter, his adopted sister, sat on either side of the kid opposite him. It was fine if it was Tina, but Hill also looked very normal and familiar… They had only known each other for a few days.
It was as if he was the wild man from outside.
A subtle displeasure brewed and grew in his heart.
Just as the Prime Minister had said during the day, human identities could be separated.
As Grand Duke Goethe, he was very grateful for Kang De’s help. He praised his legendary rescue of Red Maple City and was shocked by the strength he displayed. He cherished and was touched by this Cathayan’s kindness and emotions towards Goethe and was determined to repay this kindness and maintain this deep friendship.
However, as a father…
He had wooed his daughter, kissed her, and was so familiar with her. He did not seem to know the Elven Empress well. In the past two days, he had received news that during the Valentine peace talks, the elves had proposed to facilitate his marriage to the Cathayan Empress. He actually felt that it was not enough and even proposed to the elf delegation to marry the Phoenix King. This was directly confirmed by the Twilight Dynasty. It was impossible to be wrong.
—I can’t tell. You look honest. Do you want to use your *ss to rule the world? Your next target is the Empire, b*stard?
Moreover, his bearing was too casual. How was he not interested in etiquette? He did not understand at all.
—Ah, it looks so awkward, but I can’t reprimand him because he’s not my son-in-law yet. I’m so angry. I can only teach him a lesson after marrying my daughter to him, but if I want to teach him a lesson, I have to marry Tina to him. B*stard, could this be part of his calculations?
Thinking of this, he was indeed angry. He was not wrong at all earlier. He was a Stella II…
In a flash, Grand Duke Leckos’ heart surged, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
Men’s friendship was like hostility. It always came inexplicably.
Calm down, calm down.
Let’s get down to business first.
The Grand Duke calmed his thoughts and said, “I heard from Tina that you saw Xide today.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Kang De’s smile disappeared and his gaze fell to the table.
Immediately, four sharp gazes stabbed at the Grand Duke, filled with complaint and dissatisfaction. These four gazes were comparable to peerless divine artifacts, causing Leckos’ heart to be riddled with holes.
—Hey! What are the two of you doing?! I’m your brother and your father!
Tina gently held Kang De’s hand and comforted him with silent actions.
Hillmelia also said, “Don’t take it to heart. That fool, Xide, doesn’t know what’s good for him. He’s simply like a crazy dog. His personality has never changed. He’s a perfect match for a certain fool.”
Grand Duke Leckos said in a low voice, “Hill, he lost his only son after all.”
The Sword Saint glared at him and said, “So what? There are so many crew members on the Penguin. Which one of them doesn’t have parents and children? Do these people’s relatives have to scold Kang De? So many Goethe people died in the war. According to that idiot Xide’s logic, do they have to blame Kang De for not arriving in time? How can there be such a logic in this world? Why didn’t they scold you?”
As Sword Saint Snowfall spoke, she stabbed the knife in her hand into the table and snorted, “Fortunately, Kang De doesn’t lower himself to his level. If I was there during the day, I would have long slapped him. This idiot has lost his son and has already become crazy. I think you should think of a way to remove him from the position of Prime Minister early to prevent him from getting into a dead end and messing around and killing himself.”
This was the first thing the Grand Duke invited Kang De to a banquet.
Tina had come to him today to talk about Prime Minister Xide’s abnormal actions and persuade her father to prepare early and guard against the Prime Minister doing something he should not do.
However, the Grand Duke did not agree.
This was because his relationship with the Prime Minister was just like Kang De and Cleveland.
Moreover, it had already been maintained for decades.
Needless to say, trust and friendship were not so simple and easy. Tina’s thoughts were simply whimsical. Change the Prime Minister? Then who would take over? What about the backlash of the political allies, subordinates, ministers, and students of Xide? They had just finished the war and needed the governance and political stability of officials the most. What a joke to remove Xide from power at this time.
Moreover, what had he done wrong? In order to win this war, he had racked his brains and done his best. He had operated the resources of the country and conscientiously been Goethe’s butler. Even his only son had sacrificed himself on the battlefield… He had only contributed and had done nothing wrong. What reason could he use to exchange for it?
He looked at his sister and was about to flare up when he heard Kang De say, “Your Excellency, I don’t hate Prime Minister Xide at all. Goethe’s internal affairs are not my business. If this is what you want to discuss with me, let’s talk about the second thing.”
“…Alright!”
The Grand Duke’s mentality had collapsed today and he did not want to beat around the bush.
He went straight to the point.
He asked directly, “Are you willing to marry my daughter?”
