In the end, Krober held Veronica like this for a very long time, so long that even he, who had the physique of an Earth Knight, began to feel a little sore and tired.
But he still held her tightly, as if he wanted to merge her into his body.
Veronica lay quietly in Krober's arms, her breathing becoming steady and deep.
A hint of happiness gradually appeared on her face, and she seemed very satisfied with the feeling of being held in someone's arms.
Krober looked at her beautiful face and felt an inexplicable impulse in his heart.
He stroked her hair gently, feeling the soft strands of hair sliding through his fingertips.
This intimate contact made him feel extremely warm, as if the whole world only contained the two of them.
Krober couldn't help but recall every little detail of their acquaintance. Although the status of both parties was somewhat unequal at the time, and Krober's actions sometimes seemed quite ridiculous, they have now become precious memories.
However, time always passes by relentlessly.
As much as Kroeber wishes this moment could last forever, he knows real life must go on.
He gently loosened his arms, and Veronica's eyes slowly opened, with a gentle light flashing in them.
The two smiled at each other, and everything was said without words.
"Most of them are still on their way to Fort Saint-Gold. At their speed, it will probably take about two days."
In the end, it was Veronica who took the initiative to break the charming atmosphere and spoke.
Krober nodded. He had already made all the preparations for this triumphal ceremony.
Even though Veronica said the words "I love you" very clearly in the letter, she couldn't open her mouth for some reason when she really said it in person.
Seeing that Veronica was becoming a little restrained, Krober did not take the initiative. He only needed to do what he should do, and the rest of the time would help him accomplish everything.
The people who had sensed the coming of the dragon's might and had come to the garden to pay their respects to the Grand Duke all widened their eyes when they saw this scene.
"What happened? Am I hallucinating?"
Victor rubbed his eyes and asked the person next to him in disbelief.
The man next to him didn't tolerate him at all and slapped Victor on the head.
"Ouch, what are you doing?!"
Victor covered his attacked head and shouted to the people beside him.
"It hurts? Then I'm not dreaming..."
He was also a member of the Dragon's Breath Knights. When he saw Grand Duchess Veronica throw herself into Krober's arms, he felt his whole head become confused.
"you.....!"
Victor wanted to say something, but looking at his colleague's dazed look, he knew that he was very frightened by this incident.
"well......"
It’s not their fault. This incident was indeed too shocking for them.
He glanced at the servants and members of the Dragon Breath Knights surrounding him and found that they all looked dazed.
With Veronica's mental power, she could naturally see clearly what was happening around her, but as a grand duke, how could she change her mind because of them?
"Let's go back to my room and report on our work."
Veronica took Krober's hand expressionlessly and walked towards her room without saying a word.
This was not because of the sight of this group of people, but Veronica's room was more in line with her requirements.
However, the golden dragon Vivian, who was left out, kept her eyes on Krober. She sniffed him, and a strange yet familiar smell came into her mind.
It used a mind contract to inform Veronica of its discovery.
Veronica paused slightly as she walked towards the room holding Kroeber's hand, but then quickly returned to normal.
Everyone watched Veronica bring Krober to his room, and the maids, in particular, looked especially regretful.
Tsk, no one knows why, at least Kroeber doesn't know.
Krober, who was brought into the room by Veronica, didn't say a word, didn't struggle, and didn't resist. He just watched Veronica's actions quietly.
The two walked into the room, and Veronica turned around and closed her door tightly.
She looked at Krober with a serious look and asked:
"Vivian said you smell like a dragon. Did you contract a dragon?"
Krober did not hide his plan from Veronica, he told her directly about the existence of Deep Purple.
"What? You contracted a magic dragon?"
Veronica exclaimed.
Magic dragons have always been rare and unique. Currently, there are not many magic dragons discovered by humans, and some of them are irrational and difficult to contract.
Among them, the elemental dragon is the most famous.
The sacred dragon only exists in legends in the Seven Kingdoms, and there are currently no sacred dragons in the Seven Kingdoms.
The rulers of various countries are mainly magic gem dragons and magic mineral dragons.
Among them, the Orichalcum Dragon of the Orichalcum Kingdom is a magic mineral dragon. In fact, its full name should be Magic Orichalcum Dragon, which is mainly used to distinguish it from ordinary mineral dragons.
The Emerald Kingdom maintains its rule with the Emerald Dragon, whose nickname is the Magic Emerald Dragon.
The rulers of the Seven Kingdoms mostly rely on these two types of dragons as the basis of their rule, so the news that Krober had contracted a magical purple gem dragon was no less than a depth bomb for Veronica.
It immediately caused a huge wave.
"Who else knows about your contract with the Magic Amethyst Dragon?"
Veronica said anxiously.
In fact, it’s not her fault that she is anxious. Anyone would be anxious in this situation.
That's a magic dragon. Once it grows up, it will be the foundation of a kingdom.
Why has the Emerald Kingdom been able to stand for so many years?
Isn’t it just relying on the existence of the Emerald Dragon!
It can be said that without the Emerald Dragon, there would be no Emerald Kingdom. Even the Emerald Light Royal Family named their family and country after Emerald, which is enough to show the importance of the magic dragon.
And after this incident, Veronica completely believed that Krober had the dragon-eating body.
In other words, contracting one magic dragon is not Krober's limit. He can also contract several more dragons with his own abilities.
Even if it was just an ordinary mineral dragon, it could bring him a huge boost.
Thinking of this, Veronica couldn't help but smile happily.
"I never thought, my little Rose, that you could achieve this without making any noise. Doesn't that mean you will surpass me in the future?"
Veronica put her lips next to Krober's ear, and the hot breath she exhaled made Krober's breathing become heavy.
He lowered his head and placed it next to Veronica's ear. He gently held her earlobe with his mouth and said in an unclear voice:
"I dare not, my Lord."
