Eli stopped running all the way to the back garden.
Thinking of his earlier humiliation, he couldn't help but clench his fists and grit his teeth.
He punched the pillar next to him.
"You wretched third brother! I'm your second brother! Am I less important than a maidservant by your side?"
He just wanted an attitude.
Even if Rudy agrees to give him the maid, he will refuse the next second and say no.
However, because he couldn't talk to Rudy at all, and with the appearance of Salina and the others, Eli subconsciously felt envious and jealous, so as soon as he opened his mouth, he said some aggressive words.
"Oh, that's... Princess Salina!"
Eli's gaze was suddenly drawn to the woman in the garden pavilion.
Salina was standing alone in the pavilion.
It was facing Eli from the side.
Her slender figure, with its curves, was accentuated by the turquoise gauze dress, which made her white-stockinged legs appear graceful and elegant.
Her skin was snow-white, smooth, and radiant.
Eli had never seen such a fair-skinned and alluring woman.
From the side, she is even more breathtakingly beautiful.
The small, cherry-colored lips also looked moist and dewy.
Her distinctive elven ears added a unique charm to her.
Even the imperial princess whom Eli had previously admired was outshone by her.
No matter which angle you look at her from, she is as beautiful as a goddess descended to earth.
Before he knew it, Eli had stepped into the pavilion.
"Cough cough~"
"ah!"
Salina gasped in surprise, then turned around and couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"You must be Eli's older brother. Is there anything I can help you with? It's a bit startling to hear someone speak from behind you like that."
Eli's face turned as red as a monkey's bottom.
"I'm sorry, I was rude!"
He immediately bowed and apologized without hesitation.
Seeing his flustered appearance, Salina covered her mouth and chuckled, then swayed her slender waist and sat down on the stone bench next to her.
"Since you've apologized, I'll forgive you."
Eli's eyes widened in surprise.
My gaze fell on her face, and I was even more amazed by her beauty.
"You are beautiful, Princess Salina."
A compliment slipped out; this was Eli's most genuine thought.
He regretted it as soon as he said it, his face flushed, and he nervously peered at her expression.
This is too abrupt.
"Thanks."
Salina smiled slightly and said:
"Just call me Salina, Brother Eli. There is no princess here."
Eli's heart started racing, and he was almost too afraid to look at her.
Unlike the imperial princess who deliberately exudes friendliness and is scheming, Princess Salina's purity and gentleness are so natural.
What makes Rudy so special that he deserves the favor of such a woman?
Eli is really jealous.
"So, is there anything you want to tell me, Brother Eli?"
Salina looked at him curiously, muttering to herself.
Is this the rather idiotic brother Eli that Rudy mentioned?
He does look a bit dazed.
Eli blushed, shook his head, scratched the back of his head, and said embarrassedly:
"Well, nothing special, I just happened to see you here alone and was a little curious. Your Highness, Salina, where are the maids? Aren't any of them serving you? It seems I'll have to give them a good talking to later; they're neglecting their duties."
Upon hearing this, Salina quickly waved her hand.
"Oh? No, that's not true. I told them not to follow me for now. I wanted to visit the place where Rudy used to live by myself. I saw that the garden here was nice, so I stayed here for a while."
"I see."
Eli nodded, then couldn't help but ask:
"Your Highness Princess Salina, may I ask how you and Rudy met?"
"Of course, if you don't want to say, just pretend I didn't ask."
Salina smiled and shook her head, then said:
"There's nothing I can't say, it's just that Rudy beat my brother, who was obsessed with his sister, into submission, and that's how we got together."
"That's it? Your brother... the King of Meldisen?"
Yes, that's right.
"Hiss~"
Eli gasped.
Unexpectedly, what Rudy said was true.
I misunderstood him.
"So, he beat up the king and got away with it?"
“If something happens, I won’t have come back with him.” Salina smiled and continued:
“Brother Eli, can you tell me about Rudy’s childhood? I’m curious about his childhood life.”
Eli's face stiffened.
"Rudy, that guy wasn't anything special when he was a kid."
"It could be described as cowardice."
"They don't fight back when hit, and they don't talk back when insulted."
Upon hearing this, Salina's eyes widened.
Are you talking badly about your own brother?
Eli scratched his head awkwardly and said again:
"But one day he suddenly changed. He suddenly showed his talent in front of his father and then began to cultivate."
"Rudy hardly ever goes out. Whenever he has time, he spends it in the library. After receiving a month of sword training from his father, he hasn't trained much since."
"But... I don't know how he did it, but when we dueled to decide who would go to the Hero Academy, he defeated me with overwhelming strength."
Salina was immediately surprised.
Then he couldn't help but laugh.
"Is that so? It seems my dear was very gentle when she was little."
