Unknowingly, the engagement banquet in the palace was nearing.
When the sky started to darken, carriages began to move towards the palace, passing through the bridge that connected to the island in the middle of the lake and directly entering the palace gates.
This scene lasted for a very long time, not stopping for a few hours. One could imagine how many nobles were preparing to attend this engagement banquet.
Many citizens had specially come here to watch. Looking at the palace, which was decorated with lanterns and banners, preparing to host the official engagement banquet, their hearts were filled with envy.
"I really want to go in and take a look."
"Yeah."
"I heard that Her Highness Rosie will be wearing a formal dress today."
"If only I could have a look at it," Ye Zichen muttered.
"Don't even think about it. Her Highness Rosie is about to be engaged to Viscount Porztut … No, I should say Count Porztut."
"That … That's just an engagement, right?"
"That's right, it's just an engagement."
"Who knows if the engagement will suddenly be canceled?"
"That's right."
Many of them chatted with each other while harboring this somewhat embarrassing hope, as if they were trying their best to grab onto the last straw of hope.
In the end, people still did not want Rosie to marry another man.
Even if they could not have it, they did not want others to have it. This was a deep-rooted bad habit of men.
As long as the goddess did not belong to anyone, she would belong to everyone. There were countless people who harbored such thoughts.
Perhaps, even if Rosie really married someone, there would still be many people in this world who looked up to and admired her, right?
The most precious treasure of the kingdom would always be the most precious treasure of the kingdom, deeply loved and respected by the people of the kingdom.
People could only admire the princess while cursing Shien in their hearts.
Even though the situation had progressed to this point and many people had accepted this reality, there were still many people who were cursing the man with the greatest luck — — Shien Porztut.
"Achoo!"
In the hall of Porztut's house, Shien sneezed violently.
"What's wrong?" Seeing this scene, Vivian immediately asked with concern, "Did you catch a cold?"
Vivian's words caused the gazes of the young ladies in the hall to focus on Shien.
"Are you alright? Mr. Shien? "
Melica revealed a look of concern.
"Did you really catch a cold?"
Lumia still had a timid look on her face.
"Don't screw up at a time like this."
Tierre couldn't help but say this.
Sean rubbed his nose as he felt the concern from the group of young ladies.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I just suddenly felt like sneezing."
As he spoke, Shien also looked at the group of young ladies.
A group of four young girls gathered around Sean, and they were dressed completely differently from usual.
At a closer look, the girls in Vivian's party had all changed out of their usual adventurer's gear and put on formal attire.
Merica was wearing a long green dress that complemented her naturally flowing long hair. She looked like an elf princess at a ball. She was not peerlessly beautiful, but she was definitely fresh and pure, beautiful and moving.
Lumia, on the other hand, was wearing a light yellow short dress. Her fair calves were exposed to the air, and they were so smooth and supple that anyone who looked at them would want to pinch them. Lumia herself had been feeling very uncomfortable since the beginning, and she was still fidgeting with her hands.
Even Tierre had taken off her usual boring black robe and changed into a simple yet stylish one. Like Lumia, she wore a short one-piece dress, but it was a black dress that left her shoulders bare. Her eye-catching purple hair was also tied into a braid that hung in front of her body, making her look like a cold little witch. The only downside was that she still wore a mask that covered the upper half of her face, which was a bit of a killjoy.
The one who drew the most attention was undoubtedly Vivian.
This was because Vivian had taken off the full-body armor that she had been wearing all the time, finally revealing the full appearance of her delicate body.
It was a curvaceous, enchanting, and sexy body that did not lose out to Sylar at all.
Vivian was dressed in a dark blue dress and high heels. Her skirt was slightly long, and her hands were holding the sides of her skirt, giving her an indescribably elegant and beautiful way of walking.
Sean still remembered that when he first saw Vivian like this, he was so shocked that he stood rooted to the ground for a few seconds.
It couldn't be helped.
In terms of beauty, Shien had seen people more beautiful than Vivian.
Be it Rosie or Nyen, they were both more beautiful than Vivian.
Shien, on the other hand, had already eaten one of them and kept the other as a spare tire (Nyen: Achoo). It was already very difficult to impress him with their looks alone.
The reason why Vivian was able to do this was that her appearance was so different from her usual appearance that Shien could not help but stare blankly for a few seconds.
Looking at these four beautiful girls of different styles, Shien suddenly understood why Vivian's team had to be so vigilant of male adventurers when they were in Lamegion.
There was no other reason other than the fact that these four girls were too attractive when they were together.
However, today, these four girls were dressed up to attend Shien's engagement banquet.
As the first people Shien got to know after coming to this world and his teammates who had been living under the same roof with him for the past few months, it was impossible for the four girls not to receive an invitation from the royal family to attend Shien's engagement banquet.
Of course, among the four girls, except for Vivian who grew up in a noble family, the other three were terrified of this matter at first.
"I … I've never attended such a high-class banquet before …!"
"Me … Me too …!"
Melica and Lumia almost panicked.
Tierre even frowned for a long time when she heard that they were going to attend the banquet. Obviously, she did not want to attend at all.
But in the end, all three decided to attend.
As for the reason, of course, it was because of Vivian's advice.
"This is Shien's engagement banquet, are you sure you want to be absent?"
That one sentence caused the three girls to fall silent. In the end, they mustered up their courage and silently agreed to attend Shien's engagement banquet.
As for Ai Yi, she was naturally present.
"… I've never heard of dressing like this."
Ai Yi looked unhappy.
This dragon demon was also dressed in a bright red gown, revealing her shoulders and legs. There were two ribbons hanging down from the back of the skirt.
It had to be said that this gown was extremely suitable for Ai Yi.
Although it took a long time to prepare this gown (mainly because there was a lack of fabric in some areas, making the gown too tight and requiring extensive alterations before it could fit), the dragon demon who had once shocked the three realms of gods, humans, and demons had such a stunning side to it. It was truly worth the trip.
She had protested many times and was dissatisfied with this, but Shien's words stopped her.
"You were the one who said you were going to attend my engagement banquet. Of course you have to wear a gown, right?"
Shien said.
Ai Yi really wanted to say that no matter what kind of occasion it was, she would never wear such troublesome clothes.
And that was the truth.
In the past, Ai Yi had never worn a gown, nor had she attended any public events. Only when she had to appear would she appear in front of a portion of people.
This Ai Yi did not care about the dress on the spot at all. She would still wear whatever she was supposed to wear.
In other words, it was also Ai Yi's first time wearing a gown like this.
Ai Yi really wanted to say something, but after seeing Shien's appreciative gaze, for some reason, she swallowed all her words back.
In the end, Ai Yi could only say one sentence.
"In the entire world, only you can make me do this."
Ai Yi sighed with deep dissatisfaction.
"That's really an honor." Shien shrugged his shoulders and said: "Speaking of which, do you feel that uncomfortable? The fabric of that gown should be quite expensive, right? "
In particular, this little girl was wearing a famous item. She did not save any fabric that should be saved, and it really cost Shien a lot of money.
Therefore, Shien felt a little indignant about Ai Yi's dissatisfied performance.
Who would have thought …
"… You won't understand." Ai Yi suddenly fell silent, and then said in an inexplicably heavy tone: "If I have even the slightest interest in clothes, then as early as ten thousand years ago, I would have become a doll of my sisters, caught by them to play dress-changing games."
… Alright, two seconds of silence for you.
That being said …
"Since it's rare for you to change into a gown, can you remove that dampening pillow?"
Shien finally could not help but protest.
Yes.
Ai Yi was still hugging her pillow, blocking in front of her. Even though she had changed into different clothes, the front of her was still tightly blocked.
This made Shien, who thought that he could feast his eyes today, very dissatisfied.
But this was also the bottom line that Ai Yi would not give up no matter what.
"It's fine if it's you, but I don't intend to let other men casually look at my body."
Ai Yi snorted softly, but her words were full of ambiguity.
"Casually … casually look at your body …!?"
"Wa … wa wa wa wa …!"
Melica and Lumia were shocked.
"Shien …"
"Could it be that you …"
Vivian and Tierre also looked at Shien in a different way.
"Wait! Stop your imagination first! What you imagined didn't happen! "
Shien trembled all over, and he hurriedly explained.
However, this explanation didn't convince the girls. They were only half-convinced and half-doubtful.
Shien wanted to cry but had no tears.
At this moment, a small hand pulled on Shien's sleeve, making Shien lower his head and look to the side.
There, Lilith stood quietly, looking up.
This little goddess had already put on a gown. However, unlike Ai Yi's bright red gown, Lilith's gown was pure white and flawless.
She was a demon god, but this pure white and flawless gown seemed to suit her no matter how one looked at it.
Shien could not help but reach out and touch Lilith's head.
"Okay, let's go."
Shien said.
A minute later, You Lin roared and flew out of Pottutt's house, heading toward the direction of the palace.
