Chapter 348: The Long Wait
To this day, Tinidel can recall the first time the two met.
As the princess of the Dark Elves, Tinidel lived a rather dull life, spending her days between books and practicing the art of combat. I don't know why, unlike other dark elves, Tinidel is naturally difficult to communicate with others, obviously very ordinary speech, but it is difficult for her to express what she needs to express in words. Because of this, Tinidel will always be a taciturn image outside, and there are not as many intrigues between the royal family of dark goblins as there are demons. So Tinidel's life is peaceful, and she's used to it. For Tinidel, her life seems to have been set on a fixed trajectory.
Until that day comes.
It was at a banquet that Tinidel and several other Dark Elf Royals had invited to attend, and as usual, Tinidel stood quietly in a corner, quietly watching the noisy scene in front of him. The chaotic scenes between the demons have already seen a lot, and he doesn't care, the dark goblins have their own values, and for them, what the inhabitants of the lower realm do has nothing to do with these dark goblins themselves. Whether it is killing each other or killing other races, in the eyes of the dark goblins, this is part of the survival of the fittest in nature, which is like a sacred cycle in which big fish eat small fish and small fish eat shrimp. And as elemental elves, the only thing the dark elves can do is to facilitate this cycle, which is the duty of all elemental elves.
According to the rules of the Dark Elves, the Dark Elves who are royal families must sign a contract with the person they have chosen. Then they will lead their own dark goblin tribes to serve those demons. Of course. These services are not battles in a large way, and the demon king also needs attendants and subordinates. And what the dark goblins do is deliver information. Serving the Demon King and so on. Of course, some of the more powerful Dark Elves among them will choose to participate in the battle. But most of the Dark Elves prefer to be on the sidelines rather than participating in them. Even so, they are still extremely important to the demons, because the dark elves are the most reputable race in the lower realms, and once they have signed a contract with the demons, then they will not betray each otherβat least until their employer dies.
Before Jenn arrived, Tinidel had already rejected the invitation of the demons. At first, she struggled with what to do, but then Tinidel realized that she didn't need to do anything at all, as long as she didn't speak. If you don't look at them and ignore these guys, then those demons will quickly get away from them. Although it made Tinidel a little boring, she was used to it.
And at this moment, Jenn appeared in front of her.
"Hello, beautiful young lady, may I have the pleasure of having you a drink?"
Tinidel was obviously a little curious about Jenn's appearance, because she could feel it. The demon race in front of him didn't have much power. It can even be said that in the category of demons, he is a rather weak type. Not even the previous decoeur couldn't compare, and he dared to come and talk to him?
Although inwardly curious. But Tinidel didn't speak, and in her opinion, this demon would be the same as those in front of her. Stay here for a while, and then you'll leave yourself. So she didn't respond. Just stood there in a daze as before, waiting for the man to leave.
But Jenn didn't leave as Tinidel had hoped. Instead, he cheekily stood beside Tinidel with a glass of wine, and began to talk to her about the place, including where the demons came from, the history and value of the decorations, and the origin of the food that was placed in the banquet hall. He is like an omniscient encyclopedia, saying that everything is the Tao. This made Tinidel quite surprised, she didn't expect this seemingly weak demon to have such a wealth of knowledge, maybe other demons let him survive because of this.
I have to admit that the stories Jenn told to Tinidel were quite interesting, and they also deeply attracted Her Royal Highness the Dark Goblin Princess, but Tinidel didn't know how to respond at all, and she didn't even know what kind of expression she should make at this time to be able to deal well with the funny words Jenn said. Should you laugh? But will it make others feel like they are laughing at her? But if you don't laugh, doesn't it make people feel rude, or have no interest in what he says? But I'm obviously interested? But if the table is too interested, will it make the other party think that he is a frivolous woman? She is the princess of the dark fairy, representing the majesty of the royal family......... But......... But............
Tinidel's ramblings continued until Jenn's voice rang in his ears again.
"Then, Your Highness Princess, I take my leave."
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Tinidel looked up again, only to realize that he didn't know when the banquet was over, and Jenn smiled and raised his glass at her, then turned to leave. Looking at his appearance, he didn't seem to mind what Tinidel had just said, but this made Tinidel quite concerned, obviously such an interesting person, he could actually chat here until the end of the banquet in order not to worry about himself, but why couldn't he even say half a sentence?
It was very rare that after the banquet, Tinidel had a melancholy feeling for the first time, she didn't want to be separated from the other party like this, and it was only after this that Tinidel learned about Jenn from her maid, and gradually became interested in the son of the demon king. Later, she even took the initiative to participate in the banquet of the demon clan several times, so that she could see Jenn again. In fact, Tinidel's idea was quite successful, and after that, she met with Jenn three more times, each time Tinidel stood by without saying a word, and then Jenn stood next to her with a wine glass and talked about something she had never heard before. The two sides seem to have formed a strange tacit understanding. And for Tinidel, it was a rare and enjoyable time.
And because of that. When she received Jenn's invitation, Tinidel was overjoyed.
And as for the one qiΔ that happened after that. Well......... Needless to say.
"After that, I waited for your reply, but you never showed up! I've been waiting for you for so long, and in the end, I realized that you actually went to the main plane to participate in some trial!! β
Tinidel's face turned pale, and she raised her brow and glared angrily at Jenn in front of her.
"I've been waiting for you to propose to me, but you've come here, how long do you want me to wait!"
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦ Well, I'm sorry to interrupt. β
Hear here. Jenn was stunned for a moment, then he stretched out his right hand and interrupted Tinidel's words.
"Why do I have to propose to you?"
"Huh?"
Hearing Jenn's inquiry, Tinidel was stunned for a moment.
"Didn't you do that to me because you knew the secrets of our royal family?"
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦οΌβ
"That's it, that is, ..............."
In the face of Jenn's puzzled eyes, a hint of blush suddenly appeared on Tinidel's fair face.
"According to the tradition of the Dark Elf Royalty, the Dark Elf royal family needs to be combined with the contractor in order to conclude the highest level of contract............ And once the two parties have a relationship. Then it is equivalent to entering into a substantive contractual relationship. After that, as long as you go through the formal formalities of guΓ², you will be able to get married..............."
"Uh..............."
Hearing this, Jenn was stunned. Heaven and earth conscience, although he knows many things. But Jenn really doesn't know about the secrets of the Dark Elf Clan!
"But why did you run away?"
This puzzled Jenn, because from Tinidel's words, she didn't seem to have much aversion to what Jenn had done. But why did she run away? If that's really what Tinidel says. Then she could have made it clear to Jenn in the first place, there was no need to find a chance to slip away, could she?
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β
Hear Jenn's inquiry. Tinidel hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head and replied with some embarrassment.
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦ Because the curfew time is almost up. β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦ Excuse me. The wind is too loud I can't hear clearly, what are you talking about? β
"I said it's almost time for the curfew!! As a princess of the dark elves, I'm only out for a maximum of ten days! If you don't go home after that, you'll be scolded by your mother! That's why I ran back! As a result, I was scolded for going back late, and I was grounded by my mother for so many years! I've been waiting for you to go to the Dark Fairy Collar and propose to your mother!! As a result, you actually ran to this hellish place! β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β
Looking at the red-faced and yelling Tinidel in front of him, Jenn held his forehead helplessly--wait, what is this unfolding? Let me sort it out first......... Well, in other words, the secret of the Dark Goblin Royal Clan is to combine guΓ² to obtain high-level contracts, which is simply to buy a ticket before getting on the bus. And Tinidel thinks he knows the secret, that's why he did that to her......... In other words, she thinks she plans to get on the bus first and pay the ticket later? If you think about it carefully, although she was a little resistant and dissatisfied the first time, she didn't seem to express strong antipathy and rebellion. After that, Her Royal Highness the princess was also surprisingly obedient and well-behaved, so Jen En relaxed his vigilance against her, but he didn't expect that Her Royal Highness the princess would run away without saying a word. And according to her, is it because the curfew time is coming?
"But aren't you working under Klein now? If I remember correctly, the Dark Elves can't make another contract until the contractor dies. β
"Of course not!"
Hearing Jenn's inquiry, Tinidel puffed up his chest and replied.
"So you and Klein ..............."
"I have nothing to do with that stupid big man, I just heard that he was going on an expedition to the main plane, and I thought that I could find you by following him, so I went to find him!"
ββ¦β¦β¦ Klein must have asked you why, what do you say? β
"Of course, I'll sue him that you owe me an explanation, I came out to settle accounts with you!!"
I'm relying on you, boss, you're so wronged!
Hearing Tinidelle's answer, Jenn was speechless and asked the sky, so that he could understand why Klein had brought Tinidel out. Because Tinidel's words make any demon clan sound only one meaning, that is, Tinidel and Jenn have formed a bond, and the enmity is not small, even to the point where she herself goes to the main plane to find the other party's revenge. If that's the case, then with Klein's character who will never let go of anything that can be used, he naturally hopes to be able to master this dark elf princess and cause some trouble for Jenn with her tireless revenge. In fact, even Jenn and Lilicia thought so, but who knows, the brain circuit of Her Royal Highness the Dark Goblin Princess is not the same line as them at all.
In a certain way, Her Royal Highness the princess can also be regarded as a natural enemy of the demon race.
"Now without further ado, Jenn, I want you to give me an answer! When exactly are you going to marry me!! β
Hearing Tinidel's inquiry, Jenn came back to his senses, and then he looked at the scythe in front of him and thought for a moment, then Jenn shook his head.
"I'm sorry, Tinidel, I can't marry you right now."
Then, Jenn replied. (To be continued......)
