This piece of news quickly became the hottest topic in the streets of the imperial capital. After all, in the past two years, there has been very little news about this super European emperor. If not everyone knew that this super European emperor would never encounter any accidents, if it were any other prince, many people would probably speculate whether something had happened to him.
As for the first draw of the Imperial Capital's card pool, it has been a long time since we heard about it. Everyone knows that unless it is an extremely special card pool or a very expensive price, it is possible to invite this European emperor, but the local card pool has basically been developed, and there has been no news of any new card pool that can make this arrogant prince look at it differently recently...
Everyone was talking about it, but unfortunately the official did not announce the specific time of the first draw of the four princes and the location of the card pool. This is also a routine operation.
Previously, the official had announced the time and location, which attracted hundreds of thousands of people to watch. After all, everyone hoped to get some good luck, and with so many people rushing to the same place, the traffic in that city was completely paralyzed that day, and the card pool that was first drawn was almost flattened... Since then, before the first draw is completed, the official has strictly sealed off the information about the relevant card pool. If you want to know, just wait until the day after the first draw is completed.
While the whole city was discussing this, Ke Jin was completely unaware of it. This was his first time in a city like the Imperial Capital where the card pool industry was highly developed. He felt that everything was new. These days, he compared the card pool list on the "Hundred Emperors List" and went to draw cards one by one to experience it. Although his luck was not very good, it was quite informative and he felt that he had gained a lot.
During this period, Ke Jin had been in contact with Ouluoyi. Ouluoyi's affairs were handled smoothly and he said that he would definitely return to the imperial capital on Monday. On Monday morning, Ke Jin finally did not go out to browse the card pool, but stayed in the villa honestly, eating breakfast while browsing the industry push news that he had put aside for the past few days.
Soon, he saw the news that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince was about to make the first draw for a card pool in the imperial capital.
"'Favored by the Goddess of Luck'... Ha, this title sounds quite impressive. I wonder how it compares to the super European emperor Orloy..."
Ke Jin made some comments with an attitude of indifference and continued to read nonchalantly.
"His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, Orloy Odin..."
Ke Jin: “…”
Wait, what did he see?
The fourth prince is called Orloy Odin? ...O-Orloy? !
Ke Jin almost spit out the cereal in his mouth. He widened his eyes and read the name over and over again, finally confirming that he was not mistaken.
Ke Jin has always known that Oloy is of noble origin, but he has never heard him mention that he is from the royal family... Could it be that they have the same name? But Oloy is indeed a very powerful "Emperor of Europe", and he will also be doing his first draw in the card pool soon, so this information can completely match up...
God, when I didn't know that "Ono" was Oloy, I beat him up... There should be a crime in this country for beating the royal family, right? ?
Because he was too shocked, a lot of messy thoughts flooded into Ke Jin's mind in an instant. He was in a trance when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.
"Ke Jin!" Eggers' hearty laughter came from outside the door, "We are here!"
Eggers had previously agreed with Ke Jin to bring Oloy to the first draw today, and to have breakfast at the same time - of course, Eggers knew that having breakfast was just an excuse, the real reason was that someone couldn't wait to see Ke Jin right away...
Ke Jin was still a little hazy, he went downstairs in a daze, and opened the door in a daze. Eggers stood behind him consciously, so when Ke Jin opened the door, the first person he saw was Oloy.
In order to avoid being seen, Ouluoyi was dressed like a star avoiding his fans. When Ke Jin opened the door, he was pulling off the scarf that was covering his face. Their eyes met, and Ouluo's hand movements paused slightly. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, and he couldn't hide his happy mood at all.
"Long time no see, Ke Jin."
A familiar voice rang in his ears. When he looked into those beautiful green eyes, Ke Jin suddenly came to his senses. The sense of unreality caused by being too shocked by the other person's true identity was suddenly dispelled by the faint smile in the other person's eyes.
Really.
What on earth are you worrying about?
No matter who this person is, no matter what his identity is, he is still the Oloyi that he knows.
That never changes, does it?
"……haven't seen you for a long time."
Ke Jin blinked his eyes gently, curled the corners of his mouth, walked forward and gave the other person a tight hug, saying from the bottom of his heart.
"Welcome back, Oloy."
***
After having breakfast together, Eggs said that he didn't get enough rest last night and went straight to the guest room to catch up on his sleep, so in the end, only Ke Jin and Oloy went to the card pool.
The card pool pavilion is located in the center of the courtyard. The pool is very large and can accommodate many people drawing cards at the same time. There is also a golden koi statue leaping out of the water in the center. Ke Jin has seen it in many card pools in the imperial capital. When the card pool is opened, pool water will spray out of the carp's mouth, just like the musical fountain in the square, which is very beautiful.
Because it had not yet been used, the well was pitch black and so deep that one could not see the bottom. Oului walked around the well and nodded to Ke Jin.
"Let's get started."
"Um."
Ke Jin placed his hand on the edge of the well, closed his eyes slightly, and with a thought, a bright light quickly burst out from the bottom of the well, and the dazzling light instantly covered the entire well, so dazzling that people could not open their eyes.
When the light faded, the well was filled with clear, transparent water, like a beautiful gem, clearly reflecting the shadows of the two young men by the pool in the sunlight.
Oloy dipped his slender fingers into the pool and gently hooked them. A golden light instantly appeared at the bottom of the pool, attracting the creatures to swim towards Oloy. The young man pinched his fingers, and the golden light lingering on his fingertips quickly materialized into a thin card. When he pulled the card out of the pool, the rippled water quickly calmed down, but the water color was clearer and bluer than before.
Oloy glanced at the card in his hand, suddenly smiled, and handed it to Ke Jin.
——Without a doubt, this is of course an SSR+ first draw card.
But when he took the card and saw the golden card, Ke Jin suddenly had a strange sense of déjà vu, and then he realized -
Same as then.
When Orloy drew a card for himself for the first time, it was also just the two of them present, the boy casually swiped in the pool water, and the golden card jumped into his hand, the other party glanced at it nonchalantly, and then handed it to him.
It was another unfamiliar environment, another brand new starting point, and this person was by my side again. It was like a reincarnation, yet completely different.
Ke Jin glanced at Ouloi, and neither of them spoke. However, he inexplicably felt that the other person seemed to be thinking the same thing as he was.
"I heard..." Ke Jin gently stroked the golden SSR+ card in his hand and spoke slowly.
"I heard that the Fourth Prince of the Imperial Galaxy... will also give the first draw to a card pool in the Imperial Capital today."
Oloy looked at Ke Jin and responded calmly.
"Yes, that's true."
"His name..." Ke Jin put away the first card, walked to Oloy, raised his head slightly and looked into his eyes, "It's the same as yours."
The morning breeze blew through the treetops, and the courtyard was so quiet that only the rustling of leaves could be heard. Oloy appeared calm, but his hands hanging by his side were slightly clenched, as if this could ease the tension in his heart.
He was not surprised when Ke Jin asked him this. After all, this was in the imperial capital, and the other party would know his identity sooner or later. Ou Luoyi did not intend to hide it. He had always wanted to find a chance to tell Ke Jin, but he always missed the best opportunity, and it was delayed until now.
"Yes." After a while, Oloy nodded gently and said frankly, "I am the fourth prince."
After Oloy finished speaking, he stared at Ke Jin nervously. Fortunately, the other party did not show any hidden anger, but just let out a long sigh.
"It really is you..." Ke Jin put his hand on his forehead, calmed down for a few seconds, and then laughed, "To be honest, I was really shocked when I first found out." He paused slightly and looked at Ouluo thoughtfully, "So your identity is so special. People of the royal family need to be more cautious. No wonder you have been hiding it from me."
"No." Oloy denied immediately, "The reason I concealed it was not because of this."
Ke Jin tilted his head in confusion: "Huh?"
Oloy was silent for a while, then spoke slowly.
"You said that you wouldn't consider dating someone whose family background is too different from yours, so I...I haven't told you my true identity yet."
Ke Jin was stunned for a few seconds and recalled it carefully.
"Ah, I think I did say that." Ke Jin vaguely remembered that he mentioned it when he was chatting with Eggers, "But it has nothing to do with friendship. I only mean in terms of love. We won't..."
Ke Jin wanted to say "We are not dating", but when he met Oloy's gaze, his heart trembled inexplicably, and the second half of the sentence was abruptly cut off. The blond prince was looking at him quietly, his eyes were not sharp, but his eyes were much deeper than before. This silent and meaningful gaze made Ke Jin nervous for no reason. Somehow, his mind suddenly flashed the local customs and folkways he discovered on the streets of the imperial capital these days -
He often saw homosexuals holding hands and even kissing in the street. After being surprised, he asked around and found out that in the Imperial Galaxy, same-sex love and marriage were extremely normal...
Ke Jin's heart trembled violently. He cursed himself for thinking such nonsense and subconsciously turned his head away to avoid Ouloi's gaze.
"I, I did say that." Ke Jin stared at the ground, not understanding why he suddenly felt nervous, even panicked. "But this is not absolute... The standard is just a reference. The most important thing is to look at the person."
"Really?" Oloy's tightly pursed lips finally curled into a smile, "What kind of person can make you change the standards?"
"How can I know now?" Ke Jin lowered his eyes and whispered, "I can only know when I encounter it."
Oloy almost blurted out "Can't I be that kind of person?", but when he saw Ke Jin's evasive gaze, he realized that this was not the best time to express his feelings. He could only suppress the restlessness and desire in his heart and forced a smile.
"Ke Jin, are you free tomorrow?"
"Hmm?" Ke Jin raised his head. "What's up?"
"I want to invite you to my home... the royal palace." Oloy paused, showing a rare helpless expression, "My family wants to meet you."
Ke Jin: “…Ah?”
***
The next day, the information about the card pool that had brought good luck to the Four Emperors was finally announced. While it sparked heated discussions, it also completely shocked the card users of "Glorious Stars".
It was actually that new card pool?! The young card master said "I already have a candidate", and this "candidate" was actually the super European emperor Oloyi who was worshipped by countless card masters and made the masters kneel down? My God, they actually overestimated their own abilities and recommended other masters to the Kejin card master...
Ouch, my face hurts.
Like all the card pools that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince had drawn for the first time, after the card pool information was released, countless people came to see what kind of legendary card pool it was that could attract His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince to come and draw for the first time. However, the people who came excitedly came to see nothing - although the pool had been opened for the first draw, this new card pool had not yet officially opened to the public.
How could this happen? !
For a time, all kinds of speculations and discussions were rampant, even more popular than the news of the fourth prince's first draw. However, Ke Jin was unaware of this - when public opinion exploded online and offline, he and Eggers were heading to the royal palace where the imperial family lived.
