Davis didn’t need it anyway as even thought of throwing it out. Even his mother didn’t need it as she trained in a Fire Attributed Cultivation Manual that led up to the Ninth Stage!
Nevertheless, it seed like his mother only morized that certain Cultivation Manual from the Alstreim Family till Low-Level King Grade. However, it wasn’t her fault since further reading will require contribution points or becoming the Young Mistress of the Alstreim Family or even being assigned to similar or lower positions than that.
Even Princess Shirley didn’t need it as he felt that she would eventually be in possession of an Immortal Grade Cultivation Manual from the Fire Phoenix Immortal.
Nevertheless, since it was a King Grade Cultivation Manual, it beca an addition to his collection as he left it alone in the spatial ring to rot.
Feeling drained, Davis thought of returning back to his two won!
He quickly scanned with his senses and saw many other treasures...
Low-Level King Grade Alchemy Books...
High-Level King Grade Weapons...
More than twenty High-Level King Grade Pills...
A dozen Peak-Level King Grade Pills...
Four Low-Level Emperor Grade Pills...
All these were worth his ti to check but he felt like not investigating it for now.
He commanded the four Royal Protectors to go defend the four corners of the residence, effectively forming a periter. With this setup, he didn’t need to worry over most things, including the sudden intrusion of the Ethren Family or even the Alstreim Family.
He took a step forward after taking away his senses from the spatial rings and stored it in his main spatial ring. Just when he was about to push open the door, his smile waned as he like he was forgetting sothing.
’What is this vague irk I’m feeling in my... heart?’
Davis blinked and slowly widened his eyes as he rembered that he was forgetting a person!
Princess Isabella!
Davis quickly moved back and flew towards Princess Isabella’s house!
On that crucial day where he and Princess Isabella opened up about their feelings while the latter finally confessed that she doesn’t want to lose him, two weeks had passed until now.
In these two weeks, almost nothing had happened between them other than talking about general things. There was zero progress in their relationship from that ti and it was as awkward as ever.
If it weren’t for that ti he told that there was a big sche targeted at her by an impostor, she wouldn’t have been close with him as she had been seen just earlier this day.
Plus, on top of letting their relationship stay awkward, he has additionally gotten Natalya.
Princess Isabella would not be amused, to say the least. She didn’t even berate him or even ask anything of that matter.
Doesn’t this just an that she did not care?
Davis felt as this should be the case as he could see their relationship fall apart in the near future.
He knew that Princess Isabella’s womanly feelings had been directed at him. She was just blossoming as a maiden in love, however, if he were to nip the blossoming bud in its initial stages by bringing in other won such as Natalya, his love towards her almost ca off as insincere and fake.
It was true that he accepted that he didn’t love her deeply but it was false to say that he didn’t love her either. It ca off as a dilemma but he learned that it is what it ans to desire!
As for Princess Isabella still coping up with his actions...
If he didn’t tell Princess Isabella beforehand that he and Natalya had lived for a year together like near master and servant, more like master and disciple, her blossoming love might have turned into disapproving contempt instead!
Davis arrived in front of her house and knocked. He could’ve just sent his avatar to talk but no matter how he saw it, sending avatars or soul bodies for matters like these just ca off as being insincere and rude!
He didn’t want her to think that way, so he showed up in his physical body.
=======
Princess Isabella stood with her hands on her waist, staring at the mirror while looking at her long-legs and lithe figure. However, it could be seen that her eyes were glazed; unfocused, clearly thinking of so matter.
She had already changed her clothes to a bright red robe with frills and phoenix patterns. This was one of her favorite dresses she wore in so special occasions orchestrated in the Ruth Empire.
Nevertheless, she rarely enjoyed those occasions and would instead leave sooner as she had difficultly dealing with retarded n who only seed to cast lustful glances at her. As for the won, they cast her a look filled with jealousy over her superior beauty.
She wanted out of it all, hence, from a young age, she had worked hard and cleared the King Grade Trial at her first try! This was an extraordinary feat that instantly moved her normal status as a princess equalling to a Crown Prince’s, making her the Crown Princess.
Then, with her Royal Father abdicating the Throne for her, she beca the Empress for a short ti of a few years. Clearly, it weighed on her a lot but the resources she has gained by becoming the Empress helped even more instead.
When she beca the Empress, she even had the thought that no man would ever co closer to her heart or her body in this lifeti, at least in the Grand Sea Continent, she was sure that no man would.
Contrary to her thoughts, soone had managed to actually make her feel womanly, feel protected, and made her heart flutter. That person even made her say that she didn’t want to lose him, despite being not intimate at all in the first place.
She didn’t think that she would utter such words in this lifeti... Much less before she married. It was as if a lovesick spell was cast on her.
The woman she had been... The woman she had beco... They were like two different selves of her extres but it was undoubtedly none other than her real self.
A woman who wanted to feel alive...
*Knock!~*
*Knock!~*
Two knocks reverberated across her building.
Princess Isabella ca out of her reverie and blinked. The thoughts on her mind dissolved as her eyes fluttered while thinking who could it be...
There were no undulations, no voice, and her physical sense was semi-closed off in an enclosed environnt, hence, there was just suspense.
However, she instantly flew towards the entrance by crossing narrow paths, and hallways as she arrived in front of the door. Without even stopping for a bit, she opened the door and saw the person she expected standing with an awkward smile on his face.
Her lips subconsciously curled as she too smiled widely in response.
She inwardly wanted to maintain a cold exterior, however, when she looked at his attractive smile, just like she had thought, she could no longer keep it cool as it just wasn’t her personality.
"Uhh... Can I co in?" Davis rubbed his chin as he asked.
Princess Isabella blinked, ’You little scoundrel... You took advantage of my weakness and kissed
before but you’re asking
now if you can co inside my house when you managed to sneak into my heart?’
She wryly recalled and gestured for him to co inside.
