"Let's go. There are some things that we shouldn't talk about." Blour looked down at Sally with a lazy expression. He gently pressed a hand against the tree branch beneath him, and his body drifted down. He then tapped a tree branch lightly before flying deeper into the plaza.
Sally looked on at Blour's departing figure, and hesitated momentarily before quickly catching up to him. She also quickly disappeared into the forest.
"Father, are we not going to sleep yet?" Amy yawned as she looked at Meg.
"Yes, we're going now." Meg withdrew his gaze, opened the door, and flipped the sign over before picking up Amy and Ugly Duckling, and making his way upstairs.
There was a limit to what he could do for Sally. Before he recovered his powers, it would be wise for him to keep a low profile in the elven race. As such, he could only let Sally make her own decision.
"Tell me, why did you come to find me? If you're here to persuade me to go back to The Wind Forest, then you can give up. I definitely won't go back now. " Sally stopped in her tracks as she looked at Blour. Her voice was a little cold, and there was a hint of wariness in her eyes.
"It wasn't easy for me to come to Chaos City; I don't want to go back so soon." Blour turned to Sally with a lazy smile, and said, "Yngwie received news that you're staying at the Geya Hotel and working at Amy's, so he sent word back to the Baibilly Family. After that, my father told me to come to Chaos City to find you. His objective is very simple; he wants to get close to you and make you like me as much as possible. After that, we can continue the engagement between our two families."
"Even if you know where I live, you won't be able to stop me if I want to leave. You're only a 7th-tier magic caster, and Ambassador Yngwie is also a 7th-tier magic caster." Sally's expression became slightly grave. Her worst-case scenario had been confirmed. Blour really was here for her, and it wasn't just a coincidence that they had bumped into each other.
Moreover, the Baibilly family already knew that she was here, so it wasn't realistic for her to continue staying at Amy's.
However, she didn't know why Blour was telling her all of this. If his objective was to get close to her, then what he was doing now was very perplexing.
"You don't have to be nervous. I don't like you, and I've never thought of marrying you. Otherwise, I wouldn't have told you this as soon as we met. Instead, I would have slowly approached you and made you fall in love with me according to their plan." Blour looked at the wary Sally, who was about to attack him, and smiled as he said, "Of course. With my stunning looks, I don't even need to follow their plans to make any woman fall in love with me."
"Then what do you want?" Sally's brows furrowed slightly as she looked at Blour. She had heard about his narcissistic behavior back in The Wind Forest, and it appeared that it wasn't just a rumor. However, what she was concerned about was what he had just said. If he also didn't like her and was trying to resist, then perhaps they could talk things out.
"I want many things, but that doesn't include you. However, if you want to continue staying at Chaos City or Amy's, then you'd better cooperate with me. Otherwise, even I can't guarantee that the Brewster Family won't find out about your presence here." Blour turned to Sally with a smile.
"Cooperate with what?" Sally asked.
"They sent me to Chaos City to get close to you, then create some kind of possibility between us. This possibility is related to the marriage between the Baibilly Family and the Brewster Family. If they find out that there's no possibility between us, then they'll use this information as a bargaining chip in exchange for some benefits from the Brewster Family. However, if they think that there's a chance that I'll be able to win you over and get this marriage back on track, then they'll do everything in their power to create more time for us to spend together. In fact, they'll even take the initiative to prevent news of your presence in Chaos City from spreading. " Blour looked at Sally with a serious expression as he said, "Hence, what you need to do is to cooperate with me and pretend that you're interested in me. That way, you'll be able to gain more time to yourself."
Sally looked at Blour in silence for a long while before asking, "What's your objective for doing this? What do you want from me? "
"My objective is very simple; I want to give you more freedom, but also give me more freedom. Chaos City is very interesting, so I want to stay here for a while longer. As for you, I hope you can give me a promise. "Blour's smile faded as he spoke with a serious expression.
"What promise?" Sally looked at Blour with a wary expression. She didn't believe that there would be a free lunch waiting for her in this world. Furthermore, this was the fiancé of a family that was trying so hard to get her to marry into their family.
"You might not be aware of this, but Princess Irina left the cave of life this morning and killed the leader of the Krol Family, Schubert." Blour didn't directly state his conditions. Instead, he changed the subject.
"What?!" Sally was slightly startled to hear this, and she stared at Blour with incredulity in her eyes. Schubert was the chief justice of the Krol Family, and held an extremely lofty position in the elven race. In fact, the Krol Family was even more influential than the Brewster Family. Yet, Blour was telling her that Princess Irina had killed Schubert? How could something like that have happened?
"Yngwie just received a letter from his family this afternoon …" Blour didn't keep Sally in suspense, and gave her a summary of the contents of the letter. He looked at Sally, whose expression gradually changed, and said with a serious expression, "Schubert brought his own death upon himself, and Her Majesty's pardon decree confirms that. Even though Princess Irina has been confined for a year, compared to Schubert's death, it's quite clear what that means."
"Are elves who have lost their freedom … no longer elves?" Sally listened to Blour's words, and she felt as if the education she had received since she was a child had been dealt a massive blow.
"Your Highness, I also agree with what you said about freedom. However, the current Elven Race is powerful and free. If we were to overturn the current system of the Elven Race, or even overthrow the major families, the Elven Race would definitely become weaker and even weaker than before. If other races were to invade us again, what would the elven race do? If that were to happen, even more elves would lose their freedom and be subjected to even more humiliation. " Sally was silent for a moment before shaking her head, and said, "What we need to do now is to bring more wandering elves back to The Wind Forest. Only then will the elven race become even more powerful."
