Chapter 112 Ellie disagrees, and Olenna disagrees too

"What about marriage?" If a normal foreign noble wants to integrate into the local aristocratic system, marriage is a very good way.

But unfortunately, Rand is a cult leader.

After staying here for a long time, you will find that something is wrong here. Should you kill your wife who came here through marriage?

Most of those who sent out marriage invitations were great nobles, and there was even a duke, but he was only the duke's second daughter.

Among them are the Marquis of Black and Brown and the Earl of the Stag, two old acquaintances of the 5th Legion.

But no matter what, arranged marriage is inevitable. If one does not get married, both the superiors and the subordinates will be very uneasy.

How can a noble without an heir make his subordinates feel at ease?

How can the superiors trust you with such an important task? The situation in the den is somewhat special, and Rand knows very well that not all noble ladies have the beauty of Ellie and Olenna.

If the entire heavy tank came back, Rand felt like he was going to faint.

"I don't agree." Ellie said bluntly.

Olenna also nodded slightly, seemingly meaning the same thing as Ellie.

Ellie was wearing a beige sweater and a snow-white cape today. She walked up to Rand in her leather boots and said again, "I don't agree. I don't agree with any of this."

Then he pointed to a pile of marriage invitation letters and said, "The second daughter of the Duke of Thorn is a muscular girl, the daughter of the Earl of Stag is a woman without a sense of boundaries, and the daughter of the Marquis of Black and Brown is pretty, but unfortunately her brain doesn't seem to be very good."

Ellie picked out a lot of faults of potential marriage partners. Even if they didn't seem to have any faults, Ellie could tell them some little-known history.

Then, Ellie folded her hands above her belly, performing a rare standard etiquette of an aristocratic lady.

For a moment, Rand felt a little dazed, as if he was meeting Ellie for the first time.

It was then that Rand realized that as the White King's sister, Ellie must have received strict training in aristocratic etiquette since childhood. As long as she wanted to, she could still behave elegantly and properly, although she was not as lively as usual.

This is not the point. The point is that Ellie is also a noble lady, single and not engaged.

Ellie raised her snow-white neck, looked up at Rand who was sitting high on the lord's chair, bent her knees slightly, saluted, and then placed her right hand on her chest: "Then, then, am I not as good as these ladies?"

The whole place froze for a moment. Even the light from the chandelier on top of the Lord's Hall froze for a moment.

Ellie was much bolder than Rand had imagined, or rather, Ellie had been bold enough since the big bath was built.

In fact, Ellie is not a suitable marriage partner, not because she is bad, but because she is too good.

Such a young senior professional, and not far from breaking through to the highest level professional.

Proficient in magic, alchemy, administration, espionage, and combat.

She has a beautiful face, it is not an exaggeration to describe her as pretty as a flower, her figure is also good and there is room for growth.

She is too outstanding. Most first heirs to a kingdom would have to fight hard to marry such a person.

Rand also knew that Ellie, as the protagonist of the Deep Moon game, would reach outrageous heights in the future.

Well, when I was hanging out with Ellie, I never realized she was so amazing, from her family background to her looks to her abilities to her personality.

Almost impeccable.

They were together almost every day and even took baths together often, but when Rand saw Ellie standing there confidently even though she was a little shy, he had never felt so ashamed as he did now.

Well……

But it was absolutely impossible to push Ellie away and reject Ellie who had already mustered up the courage to recommend herself.

Ellie is someone Rand will never let go.

"I'd love to." Rand paused for a moment and said without hesitation.

Ellie breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, she was also very nervous just now. She was extremely nervous. If she was rejected, she didn't know how to face Rand afterwards.

"But it will probably take a long time, and I'm not qualified for the time being," Rand said.

Ellie was a little disappointed, but she also knew that it was unlikely for the time being. If Rand announced his blood marriage with the White King's relative now, the world would be in an uproar, and then endless troubles would arise.

And although she felt that her sister, the White King, had already recognized Rand, her sister would not agree if she proposed a marriage now.

Even my sister has always presented herself as a man. I guess she will never have the chance to find the man of her dreams in her entire life.

Maybe one day my sister will have the opportunity to put down her burden. For example, when her and Rand's child grows up, he may be able to take over the throne of the White Kingdom, allowing my sister to relax and find her own life.

There is no such thing as free love in this world. Personal love is just something for widows looking for lovers.

As for marriage, it is never something that one can control.

Judging by the standards of aristocratic ladies, Ellie's behavior was already extremely outrageous. Ellie had no idea how she mustered up the courage to say such words.

There might also be a rational choice. She was very happy in the hideout, where there were Elsa, Olenna, Lysa, and Rand.

In fact, she thinks Shasa, Taran, Taner, Ses, and Serai are all quite interesting.

Ellie wasn't sure what she was thinking. Maybe it was a combination of rationality and emotion, but she said it anyway.

This is definitely not what she would experience if she chose to stay in the White Country.

Olenna nodded after listening to this. She also felt that it was much better for Rand to choose Ellie than to choose these ugly domestic nobles, although she knew very well that Ellie was a little too picky.

For example, the daughter of the Duke of Thorn is a warrior, so she is definitely a bit muscular, but she is actually very pretty.

It's not quite right to say that the Earl of Bucks' daughter has no sense of boundaries. The Earl of Bucks' daughter is a socialite, but in fact, I have never heard of her actually doing something without a sense of boundaries, such as being alone with an unmarried man.

As for the black and brown Marquis's family, they are not stupid at all, it's just that Ellie is too smart. But they are just not as smart as Ellie.

But it is true that they are not as good as Ellie, far from it.

But Ellie was like a daughter to Olenna, and although there was some embarrassment after the incident with the photo crystal, it did not affect the relationship between her and Ellie.

If Olenna had not been specially hired by the White King, she might have stayed at the White King's Capital University as a professor.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

After receiving a special appointment from the White King, Olenna became Ellie's swordsmanship teacher, and has continued to do so until now.

Although Ellie is a mage, Olenna is a swordsman.

Olenna also stayed with Ellie when she was very young, almost inseparable from her side, and they actually spent much more time together than the White King and Ellie.

But now that her daughter had been kidnapped, Olenna instantly understood how the White King felt.

And Olenna's own relationship with Ellie has become strange, and their relationship with Rand is equally strange.

Although Olenna rationally felt that Ellie was more suitable to be Rand's Viscountess than anyone else, she could not accept it emotionally.

It’s not that I can’t accept it, it just feels weird, as if my interpersonal relationships have suddenly become a mess.

I was not used to it for a while.

As for Ellie, it seemed as if those words she had just said had consumed all her courage for the day. She no longer had the graceful demeanor that she had forced herself to have, and had already hidden away, acting like an ostrich.

After a while, Rand said to Olenna: "Well, then, just reject these tentative invitations for marriage."

"No!" It was still Ellie who spoke.

Rand was a little confused.

Ellie's face was red from the shyness she had said before, but when she heard Rand's words, she immediately stood up and said, "You can't just refuse like that."

"Huh?" Rand asked.

Ellie held her forehead with her hand. She knew that Rand was not very sensitive to politics, but reminding him was her duty as an administrative assistant. "You know what your reputation is among the nobles of the Frost Moon Kingdom, right?"

Rand nodded. "I guess a lot of people want to suppress me, but they are intimidated by my possible background, the support of the Black and Brown Marquis, my military command ability and my achievements in the civil war, so they don't openly try to stop me."

"But fear is also a form of recognition." Ellie took the marriage invitation she had taken down earlier and said, "Don't reject it directly. Leave some hope for them."

As Ellie grew older, her eyes gradually became the same icy blue as the White King's.

Ellie looked at Rand with the same ice-blue eyes as the White King and said, "Politics is like this. It's about compromise and exchange, and it's a hazy art. As long as you don't reject them directly, there's still room for maneuver."

Ellie continued, "In this way, at least when the great nobles suppress us, they will think of the possibility of marriage and leave room for maneuver. This room is crucial."

Rand nodded. It seemed a bit like sacrificing one's dignity, even though it was Ellie's request.

Suddenly I felt that Ellie had sacrificed too much.

Ellie did not have the same feeling as Rand. It was normal for the nobles in this era to have chaotic private lives. Which noble did not have a few maids he had played with, or had some emotional and physical entanglements with some noble lady, or even a lover.

In Ellie's eyes, Rand is already very strict with himself, and sometimes she is a little worried that he might get mad from holding it in.

So Olenna is watching too closely. Rand doesn't even have his own personal maid.

After the meeting, Rand returned to the sacrificial room as usual, turned on the small light produced by the ruins, and prepared to deal with the matters of taking over the new territory.

Olena came in holding a pillow and a pile of clothes. She bit her lip, looked down at her toes, and whispered, "To prevent you from eating Ellie, I will live with you from now on."
