I Try To Enjoy My Life But This Woman Keep Calling Me Villain-Chapter 208: Small Break

I release a sigh and lie on the bed in exhaustion. Even though my job is only to stand there and not move, it is still exhausting. It is exhausting not to yawn or hold myself back to walk out of the room.

It was so boring. It is entertaining to see the guest sweating from all the questions the king asks him, but it changes when it is about the compensation or some shit like that. That has become something that I cannot bear.

It was so boring. They keep talking and talking for hours. It is only a talk about compensation from the Tanada Kingdom and future negotiation, but it takes more than three hours. Is this what kind of thing I need to do when I take over the Cunningham territory? Thinking about it makes me want to barf.

I release a sigh and look at the empty room. Silva, Hilda, and Sonia decide to explore the city alongside Freyja, Jonathan, and Jullian, leaving me alone in this palace. I want to search for them, but I can’t do that because the king still wants me to attend to another matter.

It looks like another guest arrived a couple of weeks before me, and they are from the Central Continent. It looks like they are the one that is telling us about the group of pirates coming from the east. Grandmaster Valentine tells me that they are coming here to see if we can retrieve their stolen heirloom from this group of pirates and talk about creating an alliance between their kingdom and ours to create a better trading route just like the one between us and the Verlagan Kingdom and the Western Continent.

This meeting is supposed to be happening this morning, but with the emergency meeting between the Gipan and Tanada Kingdom, they need to delay this meeting. I release a sigh and close my eyes. Today will be a long day; I just know it.

The meeting is in two hours, and I have some free time. I need to get out of this room and get some fresh air. I hear the garden of this place is great. I think I will visit the garden while waiting for the guests to arrive.

|Ashryn Erharice Ozawen – Princess of Ozawen Kingdom|

I look around the city with a frown on my face. As a High Elf, I am very sensitive to nature and magic. This place is not something that I like. Nature’s presence in this place is thinner than any other place in this kingdom.

The people in this city did not appreciate nature like our people. They only cut down trees and never once plant them back. It is not good, and now Nature’s presence is getting thinner in this place.

I can only shake my head and get close to the palace to prepare for our meeting with the king of this place. If not for my father wanting to make the same sea trade route as the one in the Western-Southern Sea Trade route, I would not have come to this place.

However, this is an important meeting. Pirates from the east have gone rampant in our territory. We need someone to help us fight them, and the Gipan Kingdom can help us. We can go to the Elven Kingdom in this continent, the Vanneamore Kingdom, but they do not really have a good enough navy power to help us.

There is a reason why most of the kingdoms in the northern part of the Southern Continent are willing to hire guards from the Gipan Kingdom to guard their ships. The Gipan’s navy is not something many pirates are willing to fight against.

We already see the result when a massive number of pirates attack the Japan Sea Territory. One of the people I brought with me gave a report that three-quarters of the pirates had already been eradicated, and they were now on the run and hiding among the stray island in the middle of the sea.

I think in a couple of months or maybe three months at most, the pirates will be completely gone from the Southern Continent sea territory. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

That is how powerful the navy of the Gipan Kingdom was. Something that we need to make sure the pirates from the eastern continent do not attack us. Even the news of us making an alliance with the Gippan Kingdom will be enough to make the pirates think twice before attacking us.

Other than that, we also hear about the rumor of unique goods coming from this kingdom. A healing potion that can heal an injury almost in an instant. The Western Continent did not want to spread their potions because it was their blood and life, but the Gipan Kingdom was willing to sell them in small quantities, making this kingdom even more valuable for us.

The Western continent cannot sell their potions because of the rare ingredient to make the potions. They cannot afford to sell the potions to other kingdoms because they need them, for they have the most active monster land in the entire world, just above the Northern Continent.

I need to make an alliance between our two kingdoms or at least build enough relationships between our two kingdoms. I sigh once again and look at the massive castle at the end of the road. The Gipan’s King is kind enough to let us stay in a massive mansion near the palace and even give us a group of servants to take care of us.

Usually, I get a room in the palace, but it looks like most of the guest rooms are already occupied by the Grandmaster of the Gipan Kingdom. They are a rare talent that contributes a lot to the kingdom.

I know there are three Grandmasters in the Gipan Kingdom. The first one is the Grandmaster of Magic. From what I know, this person is a master of magic who can even go toe-to-toe against the Sage from our kingdom. The second is the Grandmaster of the Wave, a former admiral who is known to destroy a fleet of pirates with only twenty ships. Lastly, the Grandmaster of Medicine and the newest Grandmaster in the Gipan Kingdom. I did not know what kind of person they were, but from the rumor circulating around, he was the one who took care of many diseases in the Gipan Kingdom and even the one making all the potions they sold into the market.

They are also the most mysterious among the three Grandmasters. I did not have anything to go by when I met him, and it made me uncomfortable. I like to have information when I’m going to other kingdoms. However, there is nothing I can do about it.

I shake my head and look up. It looks like we have arrived at the palace. We walk to the guard and say.

"My name is Ashryn Erharice Ozawen, the princess of the Ozawen Kingdom."

The guard bows a little and says.

"You are an hour early, Your Highness."

"I see. Can I wait in the garden then? I did not know where to go while waiting for my appointment with the king."

"Of course. Let me take you to the garden, Your Highness."

"Thank you, kind sir."

I look at my guard and give them a nod. Only the captain came with me because we needed to leave the rest of the guard outside. We follow the guard, and after a couple of minutes of walking, I can see a beautiful garden appear in the distance.

As we get closer, a servant suddenly appears in front of us and says,

"I’m sorry for this, honored guests, but the garden is off limits."

Before the guard can say something, I walk forward and say.

"Can I ask why?"

"The Grandmaster of Medicine is currently enjoying his day in the garden, and we did not want anyone to disturb him."

Oh! This is my chance to get to know the Grandmaster of Medicine! I already know his gender, and now I only need to know his age and face. From his title, he must be at least at the age of fifty years old. For a human, that should be considered old, right? That is good for a foundation.

"I see. However, can’t we enjoy the garden together? The garden is massive, you know?"

"I’m sorry, honored guest. However, we are ordered by the king to make sure the Grandmaster enjoys his stay in the palace."

Even the king respects him, huh? Another valuable information.

"You did not need to forbid others to enjoy the garden, you know?"

I look to the side and widen my eyes. I can see a handsome young man with silver hair and silver eyes. He is wearing a very powerful magician’s gear. However, what makes me go into shock is his aura.

I can see a green energy around his body change into a beautiful woman hugging him close to her chest. This man is... This man is...

This man is Nature’s Loved One. Elven Champion.
