Within a beautiful and spacious hall, the young man stood there by himself, looking a bit absent-minded and not paying much attention to the gazes around him.
Seeing this, the people around him could not help but shake their heads.
It seemed that he had become quite infatuated with Princess Elus, to the extent that he had become like this.
Many people had kind smiles on their faces, not feeling that this was strange at all.
The young man's identity was not ordinary at all here.
His name was Yardim, and he was the eldest son and only male heir of the Yalu family, one of the Kakun Empire's four Grand Duke families.
As the only male heir of the Yalu family, Yardim would definitely inherit the Yalu family in the future and become one of the most powerful people in the Kakun Empire.
However, this Young Master Yardim also had some small problems.
That was, he was madly infatuated with Princess Elus …
Memories flowed continuously in his mind. At this moment, they appeared one by one.
In that instant, memories of Adem kept surfacing in his mind, appearing just like that.
Only after a while did Chen Heng come back to his senses and once again look up.
The scenery around him was reflected in his eyes and sensed by him.
In his senses, everything around him seemed to be very calm, and there was nothing special about it.
There were many people, and it was quite lively.
This looked like an ordinary ball; there was nothing special about it.
Following this, memories of Yardim quickly flowed through Chen Heng's mind.
Yardim Yalu, 20 years old this year, the successor of the Yalu family, one of the four Grand Dukes of the Kakun Empire. His bloodline came from a mighty god.
Currently, he was attending the birthday ball of the Imperial Princess, Princess Elise.
Waves of memories quickly surged in his mind and surfaced just like that.
When Chen Heng completely received the memories of his previous self, he could not help but shake his head.
At this moment, he finally understood his current situation.
Compared to the previous simulation where he had become a newborn Kobold, the situation this time was much better.
Perhaps it was because he had invested a large number of Points into this simulation, but the identity he had obtained this time was the best he had obtained in the past.
The successor of a Duke family.
This identity was incredibly illustrious.
According to the memories of his predecessor, the Yalu Family was not an ordinary Duke's family.
The strength of the Kakun Empire was also much stronger than small countries like the Karo Kingdom.
This was an empire with a vast territory and many experts.
At least in this empire, three-ring powerhouses were not rare.
There seemed to be quite a few powerhouses with three rings and above in this empire.
The father of this body, the current head of the Yalu family, had strength above Four-Ring, and he was incredibly powerful.
This was something that many small countries like the Kalo Kingdom could not compare to.
To put it bluntly, the region where the Karo Kingdom was located was the most remote and desolate region in the World of Gods.
Apart from small forces like the Druidic Order, very few people would go there and live there.
The region where the Kakun Empire was located was undoubtedly the core region of the World of Gods, and could be considered as occupying the essence of the World of Gods.
In this place, there were many experts.
Just the power of the Yalu Family alone was enough to sweep through the entire Kalo Kingdom.
As for Chen Heng's predecessor, as the successor of the Yalu Family, his performance was also extraordinary.
Members of the Yalu Family were born with divine blood.
As the future successor of the Yalu Family, Yadim's divine blood was even denser, so he had displayed outstanding talent and abilities since he was young.
Whether it was as a Life Knight or a Wizard, he had displayed excellent talent, and he had reached the peak of One-Ring.
For his age, this was already extremely outstanding, and it was rare even in the Kakun Kingdom.
In other aspects, his predecessor's performance was also very good.
Not only did he have outstanding talent, but he also had a noble bloodline and a respected identity. Within the Kakun Empire, he was definitely a top-notch figure.
However, even such a person had some big problems.
That was, this famous figure of the Kakun Kingdom seemed to be someone who was infatuated with love.
And the person he was infatuated with seemed to be the person in front of him.
It was none other than Princess Elus.
At this point, Chen Heng could not help but feel speechless.
Up until now, he had simulated many reincarnated people.
However, to be honest, it was the first time he had seen someone like Yadim.
If it was just infatuation, it would not matter.
However, his predecessor was also a spendthrift.
In order to curry favor with Princess Elus, not only did he greet her every day, but he also gave her all sorts of good things.
As a result, his reputation in the Kakuen Empire became even more resounding.
This was how his infatuation came about.
However, there was no doubt that doing this was also very wasteful.
If it was not for the fact that his predecessor was born in the Yalu Family and was the successor of a Duke's family, with the speed at which he squandered, ordinary noble families would have long since collapsed.
This time, he even spent a sky-high price to purchase a Magic Crystal, hoping to give it to Princess Elus on her birthday to please her.
Thinking to there, Chen Heng deeply sighed, feeling somewhat helpless.
At this moment, he could not understand.
It was obvious that Princess Elus had no interest in her predecessor.
Why was his predecessor like this?
He could not understand, but there was nothing he could say.
However, it did not matter.
Since the owner of this body had become him, there was naturally no need to be so troublesome.
After thinking to himself, he inwardly shook his head.
In front of him, a series of light footsteps could be heard, just like that.
Standing there, Chen Heng instinctively raised his head and looked ahead.
In front of him, a figure was walking towards him.
It was a young woman wearing a white dress.
The young woman looked quite tall and slim and had exquisite and beautiful looks. She was wearing a long dress and had a calm smile on her face as she slowly walked over to Chen Heng.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Yadim …"
After walking over to Chen Heng, Elus gave a calm smile and said softly, "I'm very happy that you came to my birthday banquet …"
"It should have been a while since we last met …"
"That's right."
Looking at Elus, Yadim raised his head and gave a slight smile, "After that, I missed you a lot, so I came back to attend this banquet."
He spoke softly and casually.
However, as he spoke, he sensed that there seemed to be someone giving him a meaningful glance.
It was a cute-looking young woman who was about 13 or 14 years old and also wore a long dress. She was by Elus's side and was continuously giving him meaningful glances.
It was as if she was hinting at something.
This was Vivian, who was also a Princess of the Kanai royal family. She was Elus' half-sister.
Normally, her relationship with Yadim's predecessor was quite good.
Many times, she had created opportunities for Yadim's predecessor, allowing him to meet Elus.
But at that moment, she was still there, trying her best to signal Adem with her eyes.
Yadim immediately understood what she meant.
After all, she had given him similar hints in the past.
If it was in the past, Yadim's predecessor would have quickly replied.
However, things were different now.
Unbeknownst to ordinary people, Yardim had already changed into a different person.
Yadim did not have much interest in this so-called Princess Elus.
So, he looked at Elus in front of him and at least smiled lightly, but didn't say anything.
His reaction immediately made Vivian, who was in front of him, anxious.
Elus stood on the spot and looked at Yadim's actions, feeling quite confused.
She knew very well what Yadim had prepared.
She had come here to receive the gift that Yadim had specially prepared.
That item was very important to her.
However, looking at Yadim's expression, she seemed quite surprised.
Could it be that he wanted more from her?
Standing on the spot, Elus thought to herself and could not help but frown.
However, on the surface, she still had a sweet smile on her face, "Looking at the time, we haven't seen each other for more than half a year …"
"I wonder if you're free tomorrow?"
I would like to invite you to my garden and enjoy the scene of flowers blooming together. "
Standing on the spot and looking at Yadim, she invited him.
Based on her past experience, whenever she invited him, Yadim would always seem very excited and delighted.
"There shouldn't be any problems now, right?"
Standing on the spot, she thought to herself and started to look forward to it.
However, this time, she was destined to be disappointed.
In front of her, hearing her words, Adim only glanced at her, and then a smile appeared on his face.
"Apologies."
He bowed slightly and said softly with an apologetic expression on his face.
"I still have some things to do tomorrow that I need to deal with personally …
"I'm afraid I won't have time to accompany Your Highness to the garden tomorrow …"
He spoke softly with an apologetic expression on his face, which looked just right.
Yadim did not have any interest in continuing to be entangled with Elus.
After all, he was not his previous self, and he did not have the time to play the game of chasing after her.
If Elus had any benefits, then so be it.
However, there were clearly no benefits and she was so difficult to obtain, so why waste time?
Of course, in terms of status, Elus was indeed a Princess and had a very high status.
However, Yadim was also the son of a Duke, so their statuses were equal.
In terms of status, Yadim's status was obviously much higher than hers.
After all, Duke Yalu did not have many children, and Yadim was the only boy among them.
To the Yalu family, he was the only heir in the future. As long as he did not die, he would most likely take charge of the Yalu family in the future.
As for Elus?
To put it nicely, she was the Princess of the Kakun Empire.
But in reality, there were many princesses in the Kakun Empire.
The current Emperor Kakun had a lot of children.
Elus was just one of the most ordinary of them all.
She did not have powerful talent, nor did she have a powerful mother. Her mother's bloodline was very ordinary and not very powerful.
In a bloodline family, bloodline was the only standard to measure one's status.
Elus's own bloodline and talent were not very powerful, which meant that she had a low status in the Kakun royal family.
According to Yadim's estimation, the reason why she had such a great reputation was most likely because of his previous self.
After all, the heir of the Yalu family gave everything for a princess and worked so hard for her. How eye-catching was this topic?
In such a backward environment, even if he was just an ordinary person, his or her reputation would most likely be boosted by such a method.
This so-called pearl of the Kakun Empire was most likely raised in this way.
Also …
Standing in place, Yadim looked around casually.
The faces of the people around him were reflected in his eyes.
At a glance, there seemed to be a lot of people, standing in a large area.
However, in Yadim's impression, although there were many people here, there did not seem to be many children of the great noble families with real prominent identities.
The only few seemed to be here because of Yadim.
According to Yadim's impression, many of them seemed to be preparing to use Elus's name to befriend him, the son of a Duke, in an attempt to get something from him.
Just this alone was enough to tell many things.
Yadim shook his head secretly, but he just maintained a polite smile on his face and said softly.
As soon as his voice fell, Elus's expression suddenly froze.
"Is that so …"
She forced a smile on her face as she looked at Yadim and said politely, "In that case, please come again when you have time …"
"Thank you for your invitation."
Yadim had a smile on his face as he said softly.
"Big brother Yadim …"
A clear and melodious voice suddenly resounded from the side.
After hearing the conversation between Yadim and Elus, Vivian looked a little anxious and hurriedly interjected, "Didn't you prepare a gift for my sister's birthday?"
"Gift?"
Upon hearing this, Adem was taken aback. Only then did he recall something.
He remembered that in order to attend this birthday banquet, the previous owner of this body seemed to have prepared a magic crystal to give to Elus at the birthday banquet.
Thinking of this, Yadim could not help but sigh again.
A magic crystal was not something simple.
It was a high-purity material and was very rare. It contained extremely powerful pure vitality, and not only could it be used to make all kinds of potions, but it could even help a person's bloodline transform and improve it further.
It could be said to be a rare treasure.
Even in the Kakun Empire, it was a priceless treasure.
For this item, the previous owner of this body had paid a huge price just to please Princess Elus.
"Sorry …"
Standing on the spot, various thoughts flashed through Adim's mind. Afterward, an apologetic expression appeared on his face again. "I've already prepared the gift. It's just that I came here in a hurry, so I forgot to bring it with me."
He smiled as he spoke apologetically.
The reason was quite reasonable.
When he returned, he would send someone out to buy a gift and send it over. That would be it.
Elus's expression immediately turned ugly.
She felt that something unexpected had happened again and again today.
Yadim's reaction was completely out of her expectations.
It was like this before, and it was like this now.
How could there be such a reason for forgetting to bring a gift?
At this moment, the surrounding people gradually gathered around, looking at this scene as if they were watching a good show.
Forgetting to bring a birthday gift was in itself a very rude thing to do.
For this to happen to Yadim and Elus, it was even more inconceivable.
In the past, let alone being so rude, Yadim had never even refused Princess Elus's request.
Not only did it happen today, but it was also for a completely different reason.
Many people gathered around, looking like they were waiting for a good show.
"It's fine."
Standing on the spot, Elus was silent for a moment. Then, a smile appeared on her face and she said softly, "Since you've forgotten, then I'll have someone bring it back when I'm free."
"Today is my banquet; I hope you'll have a good time."
She looked at Yardim and said softly. Then, she turned around and left the place.
It seemed that she was a bit angry.
Looking at Princess Elouse's departing figure, everyone turned around and looked at Adim.
They really wanted to know, at this point, what would Yardim do?
Would he go over and appease her like he always did?
But to their disappointment, Yadim still looked the same as before. He just stood there quietly, looking at Princess Elus leave without any reaction.
He didn't look like he should have at all.
Everyone was stunned by this. They didn't think that it would be like this.
In front of them, Elus's figure slowly disappeared from their sight.
Yadim stood there alone, shrugged helplessly, and then found a place to sit down.
