Chapter 457 A surprise meeting
I didn't know what the fourth prince wanted to show me, but the only thing that I could do was follow him.
We walked for a bit before coming to a carriage that was parked by the side of the road.
This carriage was the same carriage that I saw him riding in before, so I knew that this was the fourth prince's carriage. But when I looked closely, I found that there was a cloaked figure that was sitting inside.
For some reason, I felt that this cloaked figure seemed familiar.
It was like I had seen this cloaked figure somewhere before.
When we came over, the fourth prince raised his hand for me to stop before going over to the carriage alone.
He went into the carriage and seemed like he was saying something to this cloaked figure.
I just watched the two of them, trying to figure out where I had seen this cloaked figure before.
After a while, the fourth prince came out first and then helped that cloaked figure down from the carriage.
When that cloaked figure came out, I realized who it was.
Though she had changed cloaks, I was able to recognize her from her body figure.
It was the princess…
I don't know why she had snuck out of the castle again, but I knew that it wouldn't be simple since she had gone to all this trouble to come and see me.
There had to be a reason for this.
Once they came out of the carriage, the fourth prince came forward with her and said, "Brother Zwein, this is who I wanted you to meet."
I didn't know what they wanted from me, but the first thing that I should do is at least make a good impression, right?
So with a bow, I said, "A friend of Brother Noah is always a friend of mine."
After I said this though, there was a weird feeling coming from in front of me.
It was almost as if there was some kind of strange pressure coming from in front of me and the one that it was coming from was the cloaked figure. However, that strange pressure wasn't aimed at me, rather it was aimed at the fourth prince.
When he felt this pressure on him, the fourth prince couldn't help revealing an awkward smile.
I didn't understand why the princess was putting this pressure on the fourth prince, but I acted like I didn't feel anything.
After a moment of silence, the fourth prince said, "Brother Zwein, this is my sister and the princess of our kingdom, Princess Angela."
After he said this, the princess slowly took off her cloak to reveal her appearance.
I was surprised, but not surprised because I didn't know she was the princess.
Even though I had already seen her in the game before, seeing her in real life was something else.
Her beauty really knew no bounds…
That light blonde hair, those soft blue eyes, and that fair white skin. She really seemed like one of those princesses from a fairy tale with how she looked.
If this was a fairy tale, then there would be some kind of evil stepmother that would be jealous of her beauty.
But this wasn't…
After she pulled off her cloak, she suddenly reached a hand out towards me.
I was caught off guard by this, but I quickly realized what she was doing and I reached out my hand to take her hand. I then bowed down and placed a kiss on her hand like a gentleman.
After that kiss on the hand, I said, "It is an honour to meet you, your highness."
The princess just looked at me with a smile on her face without saying anything.
The fourth prince gave a satisfied nod when he saw this before saying, "Brother Zwein, the reason I'm introducing you to my sister here is because she will be in charge of visiting your territory in the future on behalf of my royal father."
I immediately turned to look at the fourth prince with a shocked look when I heard this.
He wasn't surprised to see me looking at him like this and instead continued by saying, "She will be in charge of the matters with the dwarves on behalf of my royal father, so you will be working a lot with her in the future. I wanted to let you meet her before so you could get acquainted ahead of time."
I slowly turned back to look at the princess with a shocked look on my face, but she just kept looking at me with that smile on hers.
It was almost as if this didn't seem to concern her.
Giving a deep sigh, I just said, "I look forward to working with you in the future, your highness."
The princess just gave a simple nod in response to this before turning to look at the fourth prince.
When the fourth prince saw this look, he came forward to take her by the hand and said to me, "Brother Zwein, I think that we should end it here today. I'm sure that you have a long journey ahead of you, so I don't want to keep you here for long."
I was surprised once again by how suddenly the fourth prince ended this, but he wasn't wrong.
I wanted to leave as soon as possible to avoid being caught up in anything, so I said with a nod, "Brother Noah, thank you for everything that you've done." I then turned to the princess and said, "Your highness, it was an honour to meet you."
The fourth prince gave a nod and then said, "Then Brother Zwein, until we meet again."
I said with a smile, "Brother Noah, until we meet again."
The two of us stood there for a few seconds before turning around to head to our own carriages.
Both of us had different thoughts in mind that the other never would have expected.
But as I was walking off, I felt the urge to turn around.
When I did, I saw that the fourth prince had also turned around.
Seeing that I was looking at him, he mouthed, "Good luck."
Without saying anything else, he turned back around and didn't turn back once.
I was just confused why he would mouth this to me.
