Chapter 1579: 435 Negative Energy Heart and the Troll Princess’s Dowry_4
However, her words were interrupted by Matthew.
Matthew asked with a look of astonishnt,
“You don’t an to say that he just rushed over wanting to help chop up Fishn, do you?”
Annie really wanted to say that.
But she couldn’t bring herself to say it.
She hesitated for a mont and then gritted her teeth, saying,
“That’s not it.”
“But Ruiqi really ant no harm to you; she just really likes you and wanted to rescue you from the Fishn…”
Matthew wasn’t buying that:
“Rescue?”
“Then train to be a Male Slave, right?”
Because of his previous experience searching for ancient airs, Matthew was very familiar with the customs and traditions of the Troll Empire.
He knew very well that the life of soone “rescued” by two such domineering princess heroes was unlikely to be particularly enviable.
This ti,
Annie didn’t argue.
She spoke with a calm tone:
“Regardless, she didn’t truly harm you, and this is essentially a misunderstanding.”
“I’m sure you’ve also heard about the reestablishnt of the Troll Kingdom.”
“If you have the chance, you should personally go to the north and see for yourself; Armor City has grown into sothing imasurable for mortals.”
“I admit you’re strong and have the qualifications to speak to the Salvens Family as equals.”
“And as I’ve said before—there is no irreconcilable conflict between us.”
“As long as you return Ruiqi’s soul to , even allowing her to reincarnate, we could completely put aside our past grudges and even enter into deep cooperation.”
“Our cooperation need not be limited to Blood-Drinking Mountain; it can continue even after returning to the material world.”
“For an outstanding necromancer like yourself, I would personally recomnd you to my father, the King. The depth of the trolls is unimaginable for other races, and if my father were to support you, you would receive resources beyond what any ordinary spellcaster could imagine…”
When it ca to the Troll Kingdom and her father,
Annie couldn’t help but reveal a hint of pride.
“Since the establishnt of the Troll Kingdom, we have launched three wars with the Alliance’s tacit approval, and we have won all three major battles.”
“You might not know, but the most fertile Bay Stream Great Plain in the north and nearly ten large human city states around it have all been incorporated into the Troll Kingdom’s territory, and there will be more Northern Emperor City States becoming a part of the Troll Kingdom or even the Empire in the future!”
“Becoming a distinguished guest of the Troll Kingdom will be completely beneficial for you.”
“And to achieve this, all you need to do is spare Ruiqi’s soul, which shouldn’t be difficult for you, right?”
Before Matthew could respond,
Peggy, who had been listening for a long ti, couldn’t help but stand out:
“After all this talk, aren’t you just baiting with empty promises?”
“You say distinguished guest as if it’s settled? Our Matthew is in high demand!”
“To curry favor with Matthew, the Rolling Stone Kingdom offered a princess, and they almost threw in the king too!”
“What can your Troll Kingdom offer?”
A flash of surprise crossed Annie’s eyes:
“The king was thrown in too?”
“Your private life is indeed quite chaotic!”
She gazed steadily at Matthew, her eyes suddenly filled with amusent.
Several seconds later,
Annie suddenly stepped forward, puffing out her chest:
“The Troll Kingdom has princesses too, what do you think of ?”
Matthew looked Annie Salvens up and down.
This Troll Princess’s eyes were bright, her attitude serious, as if she was not joking.
If truth be told,
Troll girls are actually not bad with more abstract figures and hairstyles; whether it’s Annie standing or Ruiqi lying down, both their figures were quite nice.
As for facial beauty, that varied by individual, but at least Matthew didn’t find them repulsive.
“Wearing a mask seems kind of appealing?”
Sohow,
That thought popped into his head.
Imdiately Matthew was startled by his own thought:
“Damn!”
“My sense of beauty is gradually matching that of spellcasters and gods without noticing…”
“Truly, a great environnt subtly changes a person’s thoughts; Aindor is such a perilous place!”
Matthew couldn’t help but feel a jolt in his heart.
However, seeing that Matthew’s gaze wandered over her body and then settled into a thoughtful expression, Annie mistook it for a sign that Matthew was interested.
A sincere smile appeared on her face, and her tone beca more generous and frank,
“I like you.”
“You are very handso, and your strength is amazing. Apart from being a bit thin, you perfectly et my criteria for choosing a spouse.”
“I also don’t mind if you have other won. That’s quite common among the strong in the Troll Kingdom.”
“If you wish, you could marry both the Princess of the Rolling Stone Kingdom and the Troll Kingdom. Two is always better than one, don’t you think?”
At her words, Matthew was again surprised.
Before he could figure out the true intentions of the Troll Princess,
the Troll Warrior who had previously retreated not too far away couldn’t help but burst out,
“Princess Your Highness!”
“There’s no need for you to dean yourself like this!”
“I will kill him for you, and we still have a chance to save Princess Ruiqi!”
Annie turned around, irritated, and scolded,
“Stand back, don’t interrupt my conversation with Mr. Matthew!”
Hodley’s face turned red,
“But…”
Annie’s tone grew even sterner,
“Are you defying orders?”
“Have you forgotten the oath you once swore?”
“Go, stand in the garden, don’t disappoint , Hodley!”
Hodley’s chest heaved violently.
For a long mont.
He angrily stamped his foot and turned his head, walking into the ruins of the garden.
As he left,
he never stopped glaring at Matthew, his eyes burning with a wish to tear Matthew limb from limb.
“The won of the Salvens Family really do have prestige,”
Matthew comnted with interest.
He hadn’t been particularly interested in Annie, but seeing the Troll Warrior’s reaction, Matthew suddenly beca intrigued—
Not because he really wanted to do anything.
But because he wanted to see if he could obtain more Tauren elents.
So he deliberately asked,
“What other benefits co with marrying you?”
Annie thought about it seriously,
“A vast array of spell resources, slave resources, and wealth resources.”
“Besides these, my father promised to grant and my future husband a piece of land, no less than one-tenth the size of the current Troll Kingdom’s territory.”
“As far as I know, he intends to give the city-states in the north of Bay Stream Great Plain as a dowry.”
“As long as you marry , you will effectively be a king, with several large cities in the north of Bay Stream Great Plain and more than a dozen smaller cities becoming your territory!”
As she spoke,
she added,
“If you’re a person who likes to get straight to the point, I also dislike beating around the bush. We can consummate the marriage tonight, and just hold a wedding ceremony later!”
“If you find all this too sudden, we can take it slow.”
“It all depends on you.”
“The condition is, you let Ruiqi go first.”
After listening to Annie’s straightforward to the point of exaggerated narrative,
Matthew suddenly asked,
“How do you know for sure that Ruiqi’s soul is in my possession?”
“Aren’t you worried that I might have killed her off completely?”
Annie hesitated for a mont,
“I know her soul hasn’t dissipated.”
“Her soul is still there, on you. I’m not sure of her exact whereabouts, but I know she’s still around…”
Matthew’s heart stirred.
Just at that mont,
the Yeager Blade hidden up his sleeve suddenly beca scorching hot!
