A quarter of an hour later, Rosen was summoned again.

He entered the study, looking calm and humble, just like an ordinary heir to a minor noble family.

In the study, Princess Serena's face was still radiant, but there was a hint of apology hidden in her flawless emerald eyes.

There was a hint of anticipation on the Duke's face, as if he was waiting to see a good show.

Rosen bowed respectfully and addressed him as "Your Excellency the Duke".

The moment he lowered his head, he laughed in his heart: "Grand Duke, you gave the princess to me yourself, so I will accept it without hesitation, hehe."

By some covert means he had been informed of the Duke's mischief in advance.

He decided to take advantage of the situation and marry the princess.

Of course accepting the princess would bring huge risks, even his life would be in danger from the moment he nodded in agreement, but it also meant huge gains.

Because according to the Weilan tradition, if the princess gives birth to a big fat boy in the future, he will be qualified to compete for the throne of Duke.

Of course, the ordinary little baron would not dare to nod his head, but he had traveled through time for ten years and had stayed in Dawn City for ten years. He was 99% sure that he could bring the princess back to White Sturgeon Island safely.

Then the Duke spoke in a calm voice.

"Rosen Saxon, I appoint you as the lord of the three islands of St. Petersburg Island, Hank Island, and Saint Ann Island, as well as the central sea area of ​​the three islands."

Rosen was startled: "Duke, why so many?"

“Don’t interrupt me!”

The Duke angrily slammed the table, making a loud bang, which shook Rosen's next words back into his stomach.

Rosen pouted secretly: "For the princess' sake, I will play with you."

"You must protect the northeastern waters of Weilan, especially curb the power of the Sea Fishmen to prevent them from growing stronger and posing a security threat to Weilan's maritime trade."

"Do you understand?"

Rosen looked 'confused', but nodded humbly: "Yes, Your Excellency the Duke."

The Duke's voice sounded again: "Don't be too happy, I have additional conditions."

He pointed to Princess Serena who was sitting at the desk.

"My sister, Lady Selena Eridian, will become your wife, and the two uninhabited islands and the additional sea area are the dowry given to her by her brother."

Rosen was 'stunned', as if he had not expected things to turn out like this.

"Your Excellency the Duke, I don't understand. Why did Princess Selena become my wife?"

"Why, are you unhappy?"

The Duke narrowed his eyes and stared at Rosen, like a beast ready to pounce.

Rosen swallowed, looked 'nervous', and turned to look at Princess Serena.

Princess Selena was looking at her with a very strange look.

The princess's profound magical power and the sensitivity brought by her past life experience told Rosen that she must be feeling very conflicted.

She fell in love with me and wanted to go with me, but because of various worldly constraints, she didn't dare to go with me.

This is quite normal, because I have a very good body in my life. Sometimes when I look in the mirror, I feel quite satisfied.

Each of the facial features may not be very eye-catching when taken individually, but when combined together they are very symmetrical. It is the kind of face that may not look stunning at first glance, but becomes more and more attractive the more you look at it.

The princess is still young, so it is understandable that she falls in love with me, but this is a romantic trait only young girls have.

When they are older and more experienced, they will no longer have these unrealistic dreams.

Time passed by minute by minute, and Rosen remained silent.

A look of triumph gradually emerged on the Duke's face, and the princess, while secretly breathing a sigh of relief, also showed a hint of disappointment that she herself was not even aware of.

The lover whom she secretly loved ultimately failed to withstand the test of worldly power, and through repeated similar disappointments, the romantic girl gradually grew into a realistic woman.

Just then, Rosen spoke, his voice clear and steady.

"I am honored to be favored by Princess Chenxi. I am also very willing to become Princess Chenxi's husband and feel very honored for this."

At this moment, the Duke's upturned mouth froze in astonishment, while the princess showed surprise on her face, with deep joy in the depths of her eyes.

Rosen watched the astonishment on the Duke's face gradually turn into anger, but he sneered in his heart.

In this world, no individual has great power.

This is common sense.

True power only exists in large collectives such as monarchy and the country.

This is also common sense.

Even the most powerful six-ring warrior in the world could not withstand the siege of twenty well-equipped and well-trained high-level combat professionals.

As far as he knew, there were at least five hundred high-level combat professionals in Dawn Castle, and even at least five combat masters with four-ring strength.

On the other hand, he was all alone and had hardly any decent magical weapon on him, not even enough to buy a staff.

According to common sense, he should not have any room for resistance.

However, the lack of magic power does not mean that there is no enemy of a hundred people! The lack of magic power does not mean that the strong will be humiliated by the weak.

When faced with the weak, he often doesn't care just because he is too lazy to care, but when it comes to core interests, he will never give in! Marrying the princess back to the island, farming and grabbing the duke, now these are his core interests.

The Duke was only a third-ring high-level warrior, but he, after ten years of dedicated practice, had mastered a power that ten dukes could not even dream of.

Before the Duke's anger showed, Rosen bowed again.

"My Lord Duke, thank you very much for the canonization. If you have nothing else, please give me the canonization book and I will take my wife back to the island."

In this world, when a king marries a princess, it is a match made in heaven.

When a baron marries a princess, that's like a chicken marrying a golden phoenix.

Not only is it not a good thing, it may also bring fatal disasters.

Therefore, he had to take the princess away quickly and make a good response plan.

This was beyond the Duke's expectations. He held the book of enthronement in his hand and did not hand it over to Rosen.

He was unwilling to hand it over because it was not in his plan at all.

So he was thinking about how to change his words.

He actually thought of it, and he looked at his sister with a threatening look in his eyes.

The meaning is clear: 'If you don't refuse, the Baron will die.'

Of course, Selena understood. Although she was very reluctant, she still said, "Baron, I..."

Rosen knew this, and immediately said, "Your Highness, I know clearly the consequences of doing this, but I have to say that even if I knew, I would still make this choice."

"And even if I die because of this, Your Highness, you don't need to feel the slightest bit of remorse, because this is the path I took the initiative to choose, and I have no regrets about it."

When the Duke heard this, he secretly cursed in his heart, because he knew his sister's character best.

And this baron is her sweetheart. How could this naive girl bear to hear these words?

Sure enough, Selena's tears suddenly filled her eyes, and her radiant face showed extreme joy and emotion.

"Oh, Baron, I appreciate your affection very much, but I cannot bear to see you die."

Rosen refused righteously: "I ask you to do this, Your Highness!"

Selena was completely overwhelmed, and she burst into tears: "I will do it for you, Baron, I will do it for you."

"If you die, I will die with you."

Be the officiating priest?! He stared at Rosen and said, "Baron, you better think about it!"

Rosen nodded solemnly and said in a peculiar tone: "My Lord Duke, I believe that with your kindness, you will let me take the princess away."

The Duke was startled, then nodded subconsciously: "I will let you take the princess away, but I won't let you take her away easily."

He turned to look at his sister.

"Ms. Selena Adrian, from now on, I will deprive you of all the honors bestowed upon you by your family. Your magic items, clothes, carriage, and even all the property under your name will all remain in Dawn City."

"You can't take a single penny to Bird Shit Island except for a sackcloth skirt to cover your modesty!"

"Remember, there is not a single copper!"

Selena's head had been bewitched by her lover, and she pushed back without hesitation: "As you wish, Your Excellency the Duke!"

As she spoke, she slammed the jeweled staff in her hand on the Duke's desk, making a loud "bang!" sound, then tore off the jewelry on her head and threw it on the ground, and then began to take off her clothes in the study.

Rosen was also startled, and only one thought came to his mind: "Oh, love really makes people blind!"

The book of enthronement clearly stated that she was his wife, so it was logical and moral for him to fulfill his basic responsibility to protect his wife's reputation.

He immediately took off his spacious cloak and draped it over Serena.

Soon, Selena took off the last silk panties, grabbed the canonization document from the Duke's hand, and said proudly: "Goodbye, Your Excellency the Duke!"

After saying that, she walked out of the study first, and Rosen quickly followed.

When he reached the door, the Duke's voice came from behind him: "Little Baron, you will pay the price for this soon."

How could Rosen not know this? A baron from a poor place marrying a princess was like a mayor of a small town in the northwest marrying the daughter of a Middle Eastern king in his previous life.

This overwhelming wealth can cost lives!

At this time, what is the most important thing?

Of course, information is the most important.

So, after walking out of the Duke's study, Rosen's magic power shook, and he flicked his left finger lightly towards the corner of the wall outside the study, then quickly followed the princess's footsteps.

In this world, the more explosive the news, the faster it spreads.

The news that the princess refused the marriage and ran away was as explosive as a nuclear bomb.

While following the princess, Rosen saw all kinds of strange looks, including confusion, surprise, gloating, and anger.

Especially the angry guy, a middle-aged man wearing a dark red twill leather jacket and an Aaron-style side-back hair.

Rosen exchanged glances with him, but the other party did not evade his gaze, instead he glared at him fiercely, as if to say: "Boy, you will see what happens to you."

Rosen's mind was moved: "It seems that he is an envoy from the Kingdom of Aaron, and he is probably seeking marriage for King Danger. Now the princess has become my wife. Hiss~~ I am a little bit impulsive."

Although we haven't heard that the Duke has accepted the marriage proposal, the news of the proposal has already been vaguely leaked.

So this incident was simply a slap in the face of King Dange.

If it was the Kingdom of Levinder or the Kingdom of Kao, their envoys would at most make a few protests, the Duke would apologize, and the matter would be over, without any terrible sequel.

But Aaron was different.

Aaron's national power is at its peak, and King Dange is very concerned about his reputation, so he naturally acts very domineeringly. Weilan has always been submissive to Aaron's authority and has almost become his subordinate.

Therefore, the Kingdom of Aaron will definitely wash away the shame with blood.

Whose blood?

The duke is impossible, and the princess is impossible, so it must be him, the little baron.

Obviously, both the Duke and the Princess knew this.

The Duke was in trouble. He didn't expect to meet such an anomaly.

The princess is full of passion, but after the passion subsides, she will probably regret it.

As expected, not long after he and Selena walked out of the Dawn Castle, they had to face the assassins from the Aaron Kingdom.

At the same time, the princess will be afraid and regretful, and will surrender to the Duke in order to save her lover's life.

Therefore, it is extremely difficult to bring the princess back to the island without leaving any major problems behind.

Send the princess back now? That's even more impossible.

How can you pick up a nugget and then hand it back to the police? What should you do? Of course, you should deal with it.

At present, there is too little information at hand, so let's take it one step at a time.

So he secretly snapped his fingers at the guy who was suspected to be Aaron's messenger.

Afterwards, under the escort of various gazes, the two finally walked out of the Dawn Castle.

"Rosen, where is your carriage?"

"I have no carriage, I came here on foot."

Serena patted her forehead lightly, looked down at her bare feet, and sighed softly.

"Oh, I was so angry just now that I forgot you had no carriage. I should have saved a pair of boots at least."

Rosen immediately said, "Your Highness, how about I carry you on my back?"

"Carry me?"

Selena looked at Rosen shyly: "I am only wearing a long cloak."

As she spoke, a light surged from her body, but it turned out to be a layer of clothing disguised by illusion, but this did not change the actual situation.

Rosen glanced at the princess, who was still radiant despite her dishevelled hair, and thought to himself, "I would really like to take advantage of her, but the timing is not right yet."

A romantic girl is like a shy deer. If you push her too hard, you will shatter her fantasy of love and scare her away.

It has to be simmered slowly.

So he spread his hands and said, "Madam, this is just a temporary solution. Or, can you perform a flying spell?"

"Flying? That's fine, after all, the distance isn't far. Lend me your staff."

The flying technique consumes a lot of mana. Even with her high-level mana, she can only fly four or five kilometers at full speed.

It is also difficult to control, so it needs the assistance of a staff.

After all, flying is no joke. Either nothing happens, or if something does, it can be fatal.

Rosen spread his hands: "I don't have a staff."

"There are still mages without staffs?"

Selena was a little unconvinced. She looked Rosen up and down, and indeed, she did not find any long magical weapon that could be called a staff.

Rosen spread his hands again: "Your Highness, you should be very familiar with my financial situation."

Selena tapped her forehead and said, "Yes, I do understand."

"Oh~ Forget it, just carry me. Fortunately, this cloak is wide and long enough."

In the end, the dazzling, noble and elegant Princess Weilan Chenxi finally climbed onto Rosen's back.

"Rosen, take me to see Anna first. I want to borrow some clothes from her."

Who is Anna?

Of course it was Rosen’s mentor, Mrs. Agnet.
