"You want to stay with me?"
Tierre's words lifted Shien's spirits.
"Tierre?"
Even Lumia and Merica were surprised. They did not expect Tierre to say such a thing.
"Are you sure?" Vivian's smile faded a little. She looked at Tierre and said seriously, "Staying in the royal capital might not be a good thing for you, right?"
After all, Tierre was still viewed as an enemy by many nobles. The hated Elbeck family was also here. She had left the royal capital for Lamagegion to escape from them, but now she suddenly said that she wanted to stay. It was no wonder that Vivian was so serious about it.
However, Tierre remained calm.
"After the incident at the Adol Canyon, the radical nobles who would use any means necessary to deal with me have almost all been wiped out. The remaining ones should be the more rational ones. Even if they're hostile to me, they won't touch me easily," Tierre said coldly. Tierre said coldly, "Besides, what you just said is also suitable for me. After all, the Imperial City is known as the center of the world. There are many strong people here, and there are also many opportunities. If I want to quickly improve my strength, staying here is not unacceptable."
Although she said that, everyone could clearly feel that Tierre wanted to stay because of Shien.
Everyone looked at Sean and Tierre in astonishment. They couldn't figure out when the relationship between the two of them had become so good.
As for Shien, he was completely in a state of joy.
"If you're willing to stay, I probably won't have to hesitate anymore."
That was what Shien said.
In fact, there were still many things in the royal capital that attracted Shien's attention.
Putting aside everything else, Shien could not bear to leave the magical library alone.
Even though learning celestial magic and applying it to magic had exhausted Shien's mind, he might still need to use it in the future.
Rosie was also here. She was the only person Shien knew who had connections to the divine realm. Shien also wanted to learn more about the divine realm through her and investigate some secrets that he wanted to know.
Thus, Shien's mentality was somewhat different from before. He was no longer so against the royal capital.
Shien had completely forgotten what he had said before.
"Even if I jump down from here into the lake and drown, I will never stay behind for that princess!"
Yes, it was really nice now.
However, after Tierre said that she could stay, Merica raised her hand.
"I … I want to stay too!"
Melica seemed to have been stimulated and suddenly expressed this strongly.
"Merica?"
Lumia was shocked.
"You want to stay too?"
Vivian was also very surprised.
Sean turned his gaze to Merica with a strange look in his eyes.
Bearing Sean's strange gaze, Merica's pretty face turned red as if she had just realized that she was too excited.
"I … I left the Elf Forest for cultivation and came to the human kingdom. If I can become stronger here, then of course I want to stay …!"
Melica's face was red as she stammered out these words.
She did not look convincing at all.
Shien even thought so.
(This girl, is she really going to go further and further down the road?)
At this moment, it had to be said that Shien was very excited.
Perhaps it was because of the strange dream that he had, but now he had an urge to get rid of his singlehood.
Moreover, he would be a noble from now on. Although he was only a viscount, which was only one level higher than a baron, he could still have a wife and two concubines, right?
Since that was the case, it was normal for one or two beautiful girls to stay here to improve their relationship with him, right?
The ancestors had said that carrying on the family line was the most fundamental responsibility of a man. Since that was the case, how could he abandon the teachings of the ancestors?
One must be filial!
The more Shien thought about it, the more excited he became.
But soon, Shien realized the problem.
"If Tierre and Merica can stay, I will raise both my hands and feet in approval." While saying this, Shien looked at Vivian. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "But if that's the case, what do you and Lucia plan to do?"
This was a problem.
He could not possibly disband Vivian's team and let Vivian and Lucia return to Lamigion on their own, could he?
That was impossible!
"Don't worry." Vivian seemed to see through Shien's worries. She smiled and said, "I was born in the royal capital. Although I was sent to Lamigion with Lily for training, it's just training. Both of us will come back sooner or later. At least, Lily can't stay in Lamigion forever."
As the only daughter of the Lazahad family, Lily would sooner or later return to inherit Migis' position and take charge of the family and the headquarters of the Adventurers Guild.
It was for this purpose that Lily was sent to Lamigion to become the leader of the Adventurers Guild. Her goal was to hone her abilities as a leader.
Vivian, on the other hand, wanted to train with Lily. That was why she went to Lamigion.
So …
"It's been three years. The training should be over soon. Recently, Lily has the intention to return to the royal capital. I believe that she will hand over the work on hand soon and choose a new leader." Vivian chuckled and said, "In that case, it's not a bad thing for me to come back before her and stay here and not go back."
In other words, Vivian could also stay.
The only thing left was …
"What do you plan to do? Lucia? "
Vivian turned to the last member of the team.
Everyone turned to look at her.
"I …"
Lumia was at a complete loss for what to do. She clasped her hands together and looked as if she was going to burst into tears at any moment.
There was no other way.
"I … I have to go back …"
Lucia said sadly.
"My sisters are in Lamigion. I can't leave them there …"
This meant that for the sake of her sisters, Lucia had to leave the team.
"But … But I don't want to be separated from everyone …!"
Lumia finally shed tears of sorrow.
Seeing this, everyone's heart ached.
"It's okay, Lucia." Vivian put her hand on Lucia's shoulder and comforted her. "We won't be separated."
"Yes, Lucia." Melica hugged Lucia and said hurriedly, "You can bring your sisters here."
"Bring … bring my sisters here?" Lucia did not seem to have thought of this and was stunned.
But at this moment, Vivian and Tierre both spoke up.
"That's a good idea," Tierre said. Tierre said, "Lumia, you have great potential. If you stay in the royal capital and train, you'll definitely go far in the future. If you stay in Lamigion, your future achievements will be limited."
"I think so too," Vivian said with a nod. "Moreover, there are academies in the royal capital that specialize in teaching children magic and combat. There are many retired knights and adventurers who serve as mentors. There are even excellent mentors who retired from the Royal Knights. If your sisters can receive training here, they will be able to live independently in the future. Otherwise, you can't protect them for the rest of their lives, can you?"
"This …" Lucia was immediately tempted.
But she was still hesitant.
"If I bring my sisters here, where will they live …"
Lucia seemed to be in a difficult position.
After all, she had decided to settle down in the royal capital. She could not possibly live with the Lazahad family forever, could she?
And so, Shien finally had the right to speak.
"Don't worry about where to live!" Shien immediately said. "I have a house here!"
That high-spirited declaration made all the women couldn't help but roll their eyes at him.
But it was the truth.
As long as the house given to Sean by the kingdom was not too ugly, it would be more than enough to accommodate Lucia and her family with the housing conditions in the noble district.
Moreover, Tierre and Merica had stayed because of him. Of course, Shien wanted to bring them to live in his house.
Vivian did not seem to have any objections.
"When Shien is knighted, his house will probably need to hire a large number of servants and a butler to take care of it. It should not be a problem for the few of you to live there together."
Vivian suggested.
It was not hard to imagine that when Shien's house was given out, his house would definitely not be empty.
Especially …
"Don't worry, everyone." La Xia said calmly. "Since I am here, it will definitely be the most comfortable living environment. I can guarantee that."
As soon as these words came out, before anyone could say anything, the surrounding maids and servants turned pale with fright.
"Don't go! Sister! "
"Don't leave us behind!"
"If Sister is leaving, we will also resign and help!"
"We'll be wherever Big Sister is!"
The crowd began to chatter.
"This …"
Shien and the others were all stunned.
On the other hand, the butler was anxious.
"Everyone, don't be impulsive! Don't be impulsive! If you all leave, there will be no one to take care of this mansion! Master Megis will cry! Although I want to go with you … "
The butler's behavior made everyone blush with shame.
"… It seems that we have to discuss this matter."
Vivian's whisper made everyone nod with a wry smile.
La Xia was still as calm as ever. While everyone was making a ruckus, she walked to Shien's side.
"There is one thing I forgot to report to you, Mr. Shien." La Xia suddenly said, "Someone came to visit you today. Seeing that you were not around, he left something behind, claiming that it was a gift for you. He asked you to accept it when you return."
"A gift for me?" Shien was startled and asked doubtfully, "Who gave it?"
"A knight," La Xia said calmly, "He claimed to be Limcho Stringham of the Imperial Knights."
Shien raised his eyebrows slightly.
"That guy gave me a gift?" Shien said thoughtfully, "What is it?"
"I'm not sure." La Xia said bluntly, "That thing was wrapped up. I can see that the packaging was done very carefully. In addition, the knight repeatedly told you to open it yourself, the faster the better. I personally feel that it is very suspicious."
"Is that so?" Shien nodded.
"If that's the case, then throw it away."
"Yes."
Shien and La Xia decided the fate of that thing with an extremely decisive attitude.
Poor Barry and Limcho did not know about this.
When they find out, they will definitely cry out.
