Chapter 432

Edward felt that he was unfortunate and fortunate at the same time.

He was unfortunate because after what happened today, he clearly realized that the goddess of his dreams would belong to someone else. He couldn't fight for her and he didn't dare to fight for her. Therefore, he realized the reality in despair and didn't dare to dream about Rosie anymore.

Among the nobles who were competing in the capital, there were many who were better than him and had better backgrounds than him. He was the son of a duke who only dared to show off in his own territory, so he had no redeeming qualities here. He didn't even dare to provoke a viscount.

That was fine.

After all, with regards to Rosie, Adel had already recognized the cruel reality. He knew that it was impossible for him to obtain the kingdom's treasure, so he had already changed his target. All he wanted was to complete his family's arranged marriage and marry the other princess.

However, even on this matter, he did not make any progress at all. This was the true misfortune of him.

Walking on the streets of the Imperial City, Edward recalled how he was turned away at the door when he went to Lia's bedroom. He couldn't even meet the king and had to leave with his tail between his legs. His heart was filled with rage and resentment.

"Those bastards from the Royal Family must be looking down on me and have no intention of fulfilling the marriage, right?"

Adel was able to see that.

It was precisely because of that that he was furious.

"I'm also the son of a duke and the blood of the Brave flows in my veins. What right do they have to look down on me?"

Edward vented his resentment and barged his way through the streets, knocking away passersby one after another and attracting countless angry glares.

However, when the passersby saw the two knights guarding Edward, they knew that he was a noble. They were furious but dared not say anything. All they could do was curse in their hearts and pretend that they didn't see anything and left the scene.

Edward was just like that, venting his anger and cursing from time to time. The two knights beside him looked at him with disdain.

"How dare he call himself the descendant of the Brave."

"With this kind of behavior, even a true Hero's Blood would be tainted by him, not to mention a Duke's son whose Hero's Blood has been diluted over several generations. There isn't much Hero's Blood left in him."

The two knights also looked down on Edward.

Edward was too ignorant and incompetent. He only knew how to bully others and was a spoiled brat. He wasn't even Level 20. If not for the fact that he was the only child left in the Liusica family, he would have been abandoned long ago. How could he still be swaggering around here?

The two knights had been serving the Liusica family for a long time, so they knew very well that the person who was engaged to the Royal Family wasn't this ignorant and incompetent brat.

Both of Edward's elder brothers were once outstanding talents, especially the eldest. He was no less talented than Limcho of the Stringham family. He was seen as the pillar of the family at a young age and was heavily nurtured by the family.

Because he was not as good as his brother, Edward, who was too outstanding, had become an ignorant and incompetent playboy. The Liushka family had initially planned for their outstanding eldest son to be engaged to the princess of the royal family. At the very least, they had to let the second son marry the princess.

Who would have thought that an accident would cause the eldest and second sons of the Liusica family to lose their precious lives, and the marriage between the royal family and the Liusica family fell into Edward's hands.

If not for that, the Liusica family wouldn't have chosen an ignorant and incompetent brat to embarrass himself.

They had no other choice.

However, Edward did not have any self-awareness in this regard. He thought that this was fate, that he would be the son-in-law of the royal family, that he would be the one to marry the beautiful princess, and that his two brothers would not be able to enjoy it at all, so he had always been proud of it.

It was only when he came to the royal capital and was treated coldly by Lia several times and was rejected by the royal family that Edward became like this. His heart was filled with resentment.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! "

Thinking about this, Edward finally lost his temper. He kicked down the signboard of a shop on the side of the road, causing the surrounding people to flee in fear.

At this moment, Adel's luck came to his rescue.

After the people around him fled for their lives, Edward saw a pair of girls who seemed to be discussing something very serious and didn't notice what was happening.

Seeing the girls, the resentment in Edward's heart froze. His eyes, which were filled with anger, suddenly lit up.

There was no other reason than that the girls who had appeared out of nowhere were too outstanding.

They were a combination of an Orc girl and an Elf girl.

The Orc girl seemed to be a Houndman. She had a pair of cute canine ears and a furry tail. She wasn't wearing the leather clothing that Orcs liked to wear, but light armor that adventurers liked to wear. She looked pitiful and timid, looking like a cute little shivering animal. She was the type of girl that men would want to protect.

Even Edward, who had seen countless women, felt his eyes light up at the sight of such a cute Orc girl. She was much cuter and prettier than most girls he had seen. It could be said that Edward would definitely see her as a prey if he saw her.

But beside this cute Orc girl, there was an even more beautiful existence.

She looked pure and had fair skin. She was slender and wore a robe that gave her a sense of holiness that was close to nature. However, she seemed to be troubled by something, and her face was full of melancholy. She hit Edward's strike zone in an instant.

Ever since he met Xu Luoqian, Adair's fetishes had become a little strange. Apart from extremely beautiful women, everyone else in his eyes had become truly mediocre, and he no longer had any interest in them. Only those women who bore some resemblance to Xu Luoqian could stimulate his desire, making him feel strange.

However, after seeing that Elf girl, Edward realized that his pure love for beauty seemed to have returned.

She was a woman who was not inferior to Riad or Ella at all. In fact, she was even more beautiful than Ella.

Furthermore, she was an Elf, a race that was famous for its beauty and purity. It was easy to imagine how much she could stimulate a man's desires.

To the living beings of the human world, Elves were an unreachable existence. Be it in terms of beauty or holiness, they were second only to the Goddesses of the Protoss.

Hence, there were countless people who were infatuated with Elves. The higher one's status was, the more passionate they would be about Elf girls.

Unfortunately, not only were there very few Elves, they were also naturally difficult to get close to. They were abnormally clean, and would never allow others to touch them easily. The royalty of the Elves might even feel that talking to people of other races was dirty. Unless they had their approval, they would not give face to anyone, even if they were brave.

Furthermore, the Elves had always lived in forests far away from the hustle and bustle of the world. Ordinary people could not come into contact with them at all, and it was very difficult to see them. In this world, there were only a handful of people who could form a relationship with an Elf woman.

Edward had never seen an Elf in his family's territory.

Because of the Liusica Family's reputation, the Liusica territory, which had always been "worshipped" by neighboring small countries, was not very respected among the many territories in the kingdom. Although it was not considered chaotic, it was filled with all sorts of nobles and people who played with power. Therefore, even adventurers did not want to develop there, let alone the Elves.

The Elves would sometimes leave the forest to train outside, but they would only go to the more reputable territories or the bases of the Elves who were developing outside.

After all, no one knew better than the elves how much the people outside coveted them, how greedy and evil they were towards them.

Because of this, although Edward had heard about the Elves and yearned for them like any other man, he had never had the chance to touch them.

Today, Edward realized that the Goddess of Fate had finally favored him.

"Aiji, Raide, do you see that?"

Edward pointed ahead with an excited look on his face as he spoke to the two knights beside him.

"It's an Elf! It's really an Elf! "

Hearing Edward's excited voice, the two knights named Aiji and Raide felt even more disdain. However, they could not help but look at the Elf girl in awe and desire appeared in their eyes.

"There really is an Elf."

"As expected of the royal capital."

Aiji and Raide exclaimed in admiration.

This undoubtedly made Edward even more excited.

"She looks like an adventurer, right?" Edward stared at Merica and asked hurriedly, "Do you know her?"

Aiji and Raide shook their heads.

In this world, there was no lack of Elves who made a name for themselves as adventurers. However, according to what Aiji and Raide knew, the Elf girl in front of them did not match up to those powerful Elves.

In other words, she was most likely an Elf who had just arrived in the human world.

At this thought, Aiji and Raide could not help but look at Edward enviously.

They knew that Adel had his eyes on her.

And an Elf girl who had just arrived in the human world should be easier to get, right?

"Seems like I'm quite lucky."

Adair grinned, unable to suppress the desire in his heart any longer.

It had been a long time since he felt this excited and excited.

So …

"I'm definitely going to have that Elf."

After making up his mind, Adel strode towards Merica's direction without hesitation.

Aiji and Reid couldn't help but frown, but they could only follow him helplessly.

Edward was right.

Today, he was lucky.

But at the same time, he was also the most unfortunate.
