Ryan was stunned on the spot.
He looked at the elves moving away from him in confusion, then looked at Lucifer beside him and asked.
"Lucifer, do I look scary today?"
Lucifer shook his head, "Master, you are still as charming as ever today."
"Then why are they avoiding me?"
Lucifer didn't know either, so he just shook his head and didn't say anything.
At this time, Ophelia came out from the lobby, and Ryan hurried forward to ask.
"Your Highness, how did today's meeting go? Is there any result?" Ryan ran up to Ophelia and asked.
Ophelia did not stay away from Ryan. Facing Ryan's question, Ophelia shook her head.
"Master Ryan, your Majesty said it would take another day to reach a conclusion."
"Oh, then... why are these elves hiding from me? Am I different today than usual?" Ryan touched his head in confusion.
Ophelia gave Ryan a blank look and took him to the villa.
While explaining to Ryan, "It's because His Majesty is worried about you."
"His Majesty has just issued an order for the elves to stay away from you and not talk to you, otherwise they will be eaten up by you and have to help you count the money."
"Elves are simple-minded and haven't had as much contact with the outside world as I, Your Majesty, and some of the diplomatic elves. They can't escape your sweet words."
Listening to Ophelia's words, Ryan sighed helplessly.
"I see. Then where should I be now? There's no room here."
"Your Majesty, your Majesty has already said that you should stay with her during this period of time and think carefully about the ancient book in your dream." Ophelia said.
Ryan nodded, and then followed Ophelia back to Estella's room.
The two pushed the door open and walked into the room. Estella was looking at the ancient book that Ryan gave her yesterday.
Estella remained calm when Ryan and Ophelia came in, and looked at the contents of the ancient book very seriously.
Seeing Estella's serious look, Ryan whispered to Ophelia beside him.
"Your Highness, could you please find me a room? I just bought a batch of forbidden stones and want to open them. I'm afraid the sound of opening the stones will disturb Your Majesty."
Ophelia nodded and pointed to a door in the room.
"That room will do. It's the inner chamber of His Majesty's house, uninhabited. If you want to open the stone, it's suitable there. But you'd better cast some soundproofing magic around you."
Ryan made an OK gesture to indicate his understanding, tiptoed to the door of the room, pushed it open and walked in.
After closing the door and casting a soundproof spell in the room, Ryan took out a large number of forbidden stones from the magic box.
Lucifer was then summoned, and the two began to work together to break the stone.
Because they didn't have a stone-cutting instrument, the two of them had to rely on manual labor, which was inefficient.
After five hours, the two of them had only opened less than half of the forbidden stone.
Just then, there was a knock on Ryan's door, and Lucifer stepped forward to open it.
Ophelia said as she leaned halfway into the room.
"Ryan, it's time for dinner."
Ryan, who was sitting on the ground, nodded after hearing this, cleaned up the broken pieces of forbidden stone on the ground, and the two of them walked out of the inner room.
In the room, Estella frowned slightly as she looked at the stone dust that was faintly visible on Ryan's hair.
"Ryan, clean it up."
Hearing this, Ryan looked towards the bathroom and said, "Use...your bathroom?"
Estella nodded helplessly, "Yeah."
