Dole glanced at Emperor Yale and thought, when will this guy abdicate and George take over? It has been so long.
He nodded slowly.
He is a marquis, but now he is a wizard. There is no need for him to show any attitude in front of Emperor Yale. After thinking for a while, he said to Elleiya beside him, "You can live in my wizard tower for the next few days."
Elleya nodded obediently, and Dolai glanced at Daphne, "What about you?"
Daphne shook her head, "I won't go. I always feel depressed in your wizard tower."
She was a little sensitive to spatial attributes, and the Tower of Babel was a wizard tower with spatial attributes, so she felt uncomfortable every time she entered, but it was not very obvious. She knew that her father wanted to bring Elleya and Dolai together, so she consciously decided not to be a bad person.
Dolai is really good, but unfortunately, her goal is more ambitious. On the contrary, if Elleiya cannot make any achievements in witchcraft, she will not be so valuable as a warrior. Sooner or later, she will be a candidate for marriage. If she can take a fancy to Dolai, that would naturally be the best.
Daphne thought to herself that without strength, even the kind of person she likes would be at the mercy of her family and power. These descendants of the nobility looked glamorous, their speech and manners were civilized and gentlemanly, they were high above ordinary people, but in private they were actually quite miserable.
Daphne stayed here. Elleya lifted her skirt, said goodbye to Emperor Yale and Daphne, and slowly left the backyard with Dolai.
…
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Emperor Yale sighed and said, "Don't you think I'm selfish?"
Daphne deadpanned, "I don't know if it's selfish or not, it will be the same sooner or later, isn't it destined for the children of our family's descendants?"
Emperor Yale glanced at Daphne and said, "You see things very clearly, but you still need to work harder and strive to be promoted to level seven before you are fifty. This way you will have more freedom. Do you think you are free now?"
Daphne shook her head. "Father, I am not free. Compared to Elrea, I have lost more, my freedom, my aspirations, everything. No matter what I want to do, I have to rely on strength. Without strength, my status is not as good as Elrea's."
Emperor Yale's heart sank. Daphne saw more clearly than he thought. He raised his head and looked at the sky. "It seems that you understand more clearly than I thought. The imperial family has brought you enough convenience, so you naturally have to take on more responsibilities. You choose the path of strength, which is actually much better than others. At least you have the talent to take this path and don't have to bear more responsibilities. Well, it's too sad to say these things. I won't say more. In life, where is happiness after adulthood? Do you think it's easy for me? Do you think it's easy for Dolai?"
Daphne shook her head. Dolai was in charge of an entire county and had to support the entire world by himself. There were also so many miscellaneous things to deal with. It would be even more difficult than what she did herself.
Emperor Yale looked forward and said, "Let's not talk about Dolai, let's talk about myself. I killed people in the imperial palace back then. Do you think I did it for the throne? No, I did it to protect myself. If I didn't sit on this position, do you think I would be alive today?"
Daphne turned around and looked at her father in shock.
After so many years, this is the first time my father has talked about what happened back then. The palace incident that year was a river of blood, hundreds of people from the imperial family were killed or injured, and my father eventually took this position. It can be said that this was the cruelty between the emperor's children that was displayed to the extreme.
But my father never told me about this. Now it seems that there must be some other hidden secret?
But the children of emperors have always been like this, and Daphne is used to it. She just wants to be herself.
"Father, I will try my best." After thousands of words, only one sentence was left.
…
After walking out of the palace, Elleiya's expression suddenly fell, and she changed from a standard princess image to an ordinary warrior. The court dress on her body naturally changed into ordinary warrior light armor, covering every part of her body, leaving only a pair of forearms exposed.
Dolai had long noticed that there was something wrong with her clothes, but he didn't expect it to be a standard warrior magic armor that she often wore.
The alchemist behind the scenes put a lot of effort into creating such a piece of equipment.
Elleiya looks different when she puts on light armor. She looks heroic, capable, and with a delicate face, she has a unique temperament.
After changing into light armor, this equipment still has a certain concealment ability. With Dolai's level 7 ability, her strength cannot be seen without deliberate scanning.
The imperial family is so rich and luxurious.
This kind of alchemical equipment must be very expensive.
Elleiya saw Dolai looking at her and turned around deliberately. "How is it? Does it look good?"
Duolai curled his lips, "It's very luxurious, and very practical. This light armor is of a high level."
Elleiya knew that Dolai would not be able to get any good answers out of him, so she smiled and said, "Level 8 alchemical equipment."
Duolai nodded. Only the eighth-level alchemical equipment could block his own vision, but it was really a luxury.
This equipment is not simple.
Elleiya looked at Dolai's face, her eyes turned, and she said, "I can only come out once in a long time, and every time I come out I have to change my appearance, which is very annoying. Today you are here, I want to go out for a walk and eat some specialties of the empire. I know there is a roast duck restaurant that is unique in the imperial capital, it is very good."
Warriors have strong blood and energy, but they also have high material requirements. It is understandable that Elleiya is greedy. Dolai just thought about it and said, "Then go. You lead the way. I am not familiar with Didu."
Elleiya was very happy. She stood in Dole and pulled his arm, saying, "I knew you were willing to go. Let's go now. We're on Third Street."
The two walked and looked around.
It can be seen that Elleiya seldom goes out. She walked along, looked around everywhere, and soon arrived at the door of the roast duck restaurant.
It's an old brand in the imperial capital. There are a lot of people coming and going at the door. They are all mercenaries and nobles. Ordinary people are rarely seen.
This price must be high.
Elleya's beauty attracted a lot of people's attention just by standing at the door. After the two of them found a top-notch private room, the people below began to calm down.
Although roast duck restaurants are popular, it is not easy to get into the top-notch private rooms on the upper floors. More importantly, you cannot get in without a certain status.
This is also a high-end place.
As soon as Dolai entered, he found that this place was not simple, but it seemed that every large restaurant in the imperial capital was not simple.
The private room was very quiet and not many people were there. After ordering the food, the two sat face to face, waiting for the food to be served.
At this time, Elleiya looked at Dolai, her cunning eyes flickering.
"I heard you're from the Northern Kingdom. That place?"
Duolai thought for a moment and said nonchalantly, "A place called Duomeng County is a mountainous area. The county's economy is supported by the mines in the mountains. It's very poor. But the rich are also very rich."
Elleiya thought that Dolai was unwilling to bring up the previous things, but when she heard him say that, she became interested.
