Chapter 458 Teasing My Best Friend Part 1
After everything was said and done, the engagement turned into a public party. Everyone sat around eating, making the whole ordeal seem very peaceful. While I would have preferred to have done this in the lower city, this was fine as well. Many people were here, and with so many royalty it was not easy for them to just let anyone join.
"To think my sister is getting engaged before me and to a girl nonetheless…." A drunk young man. Prince Lance, sat next to me whining about his pitiful life.
"Maybe if you didn't fool around with other girls all the time you wouldn't have such a problem. Remember you are a prince and the next ruler of this kingdom. You need to straighten yourself out or no girl will want to even look at you." I was not going to go light with my reprimand.
"You!" Prince Lance stared at me with wide eyes. But then he blushed and lowered his head. "Maybe you are right…"
"Of course she is right. Brother, you need to take a look at your day to day life first. Farther is still waiting for you to finally stop playing around and become a real man. The next ruler. I already have Faith so I do not need some throne. So I will support you with everything I have!" Adel was sitting on the other side of me. Her eyes showed just how determined she was. I knew the two had a strong brother-sister bond. This proved it even more.
"If even my cute little sisters says so then I guess I really need to change…" Prince Lance put down his mug of ale and then picked up a glass of water. "First I will stop drinking so much."
I smiled and nodded my head. This was the Lance that I knew. "Work hard. Adel and I will be watching from the sidelines. Leave the major things to us."
Prince Lance sighed and nodded his head. "Sister-in-law, I hope you can protect my sister on your journey. Please keep her safe and sound."
"Don't worry. I will protect all of my wives with my life." I have said this so much that I feel it was starting to become a catchphrase.
"Good to hear. I will be going back. Little sister, congrats on your engagement. I hope to see you walking down the aisle in two years' time just as happy as you are now." Prince Lance smiled and rubbed the top of Adel's head. Adel pursed her lips and slapped his hand away, causing him to chuckle.
After he left, Sophie took his spot with a bit of a dissatisfied look on her face. "Shy did he have to sit next to you!?"
"Is my little fox girl complaining because she couldn't snuggle up next to me?" I asked teasingly. Sophie's ears twitched as she pinched my side, causing me to laugh. "I take that as a yes."
"So what are we to do next?" Sophie asked. This was something I had yet to decide but thinking about it, it would be good to first take a trip to the elven kingdom. They had the one dungeon that would allow me to level up quickly, as well as those around me. They did, after all, have the dungeon that went by level and was not static.
"The elven kingdom. We need to be ready for when the dungeons appear." I answered. "The dungeon that opened up there will allow me to level everyone extremely fast. But before that, I need to get rid of one dungeon first. So we will just head to the academy for a short period of time. There is someone in that dungeon that I need to get rid of."
"What dungeons?" Adel seemed very confused.
"You will know when the time comes. But for now, we will just enjoy our peaceful lives." We spent our time chatting about this and that. Atolie and Grace did not seem to want to get involved and still stood behind me as if they were my maids. I really had to get them out of that kind of habit.
At least at night, we all slept in the same bed. Somehow, I had Adel and Sophie hugging my arms while Atolie and Grace hugged my legs. Even if I wanted to move, I wouldn't be able to. But I did have to say my first kiss with both Grace and Atolie was not bad. The two girls blushed from ear to ear when I gave them deep kisses.
It is funny, though, I still had the same house as before, and according to Atolie, I have always lived in this house. Each time I went back in time, I would live in this same house. Just thinking about it kind of amazed me.
But today, I was at the academy by myself. It was not the start of classes yet, but there was a specific reason why I was here. I had already gotten permission from the king to take a single person away from the library here.
I walked through the gates and towards the library. The familiar scenery entered my eyes as I walked the same path I had walked many times before. When I reached the library, I did not enter right away. Instead, I looked through the window to see a young woman silently reading at her desk that was covered in books. "She really did turn into a second me."
I chuckled and walked through the doors. She was so engrossed in her book that she did not even notice me. I snuck around and stood behind her. After giving her a second to see if she noticed me, I drooped my hands over her shoulder and kissed her cheek. "Jen, didn't you always tell me not to read books so much? And here you are, ignoring me while reading a book. Is this what they call not practicing what they speak?"
