Chapter 406 The Black-haired Girl from the East and the Tsundere Prince 22
The other two were instantly frightened, and before they could escape, they were stabbed in the throat by the sword of the Silver-Armored Knight.
At the same time, the woman called Isabella had already circled around Ruan Ruan without her knowing when.
She naturally took her bloody hand and asked softly, "Are you a student of the Magic Academy? What's your name?"
Ruan Ruan bowed slightly, "Ruan Ruan, good day, Your Highness."
Isabella raised her eyebrows subtly, revealing a meaningful look.
"Ruan Ruan," she repeated softly, taking a black opal ring from her finger and placing it in her hand, "You have beautiful eyes, even the most gorgeous gems can't compare to them."
Ruan Ruan's eyes widened. "Your Highness, this is too valuable. I can't——"
"Take it. Believe me, you are worth it." Isabella raised her hand and put the ring on her index finger. "When you are in danger, you can show it to any knight in the royal city, and they will help you."
Lena coughed, "Your Highness, it's getting late."
Isabella took a step back, curled her lips slightly, and her deep purple eyes were full of smiles. "Goodbye, Ruan Ruan, I believe we will see each other again soon."
"Goodbye, Your Highness." Ruan Ruan performed a standard kneeling salute, and when she looked up again, all she could see were the two people's receding backs.
The sound of horse hooves clattered.
Lena glanced at the princess beside her. Her hair was flying wantonly and the corners of her lips were raised. She was obviously in a very good mood. She couldn't help but remind her:
"Your Highness, Miss Ruan Ruan is the candidate for His Highness Ryan's princess."
"Dear Lena, you are too nervous." Isabella waved the reins and teased with a smile, "Beauty is always pleasing to the eye. I am just good at discovering it."
Not only is he good at discovering, he is also very good at teasing.
Lena had long been accustomed to her master's leniency, but as far as she knew, His Highness Ryan obviously treated this young lady differently.
"Yes, Your Highness. I think His Highness Ryan discovered her beauty earlier than you did."
"Yeah, it's such a pity."
Besabella's eyes sparkled. How could such a beauty be so cheap to that bad boy?
Unfortunately, her brother is a mad dog who won't let go of his prey once he bites it.
"Miss Lina is equally lovely, isn't she, Your Highness?" Lina tilted her head, "She is still looking forward to your early return."
"You're right, go!"
Isabella gave a short shout and kicked the horse's belly hard with her foot. The black horse rushed out like an arrow, followed closely by the white horse. Lena held the reins tightly in her hands.
They were going to the Monster Mountain Range this time on the orders of His Majesty. They did not use the teleportation array to conceal their whereabouts. They also needed to go and come back quickly. Thinking of this, Lena squeezed the horse's belly hard again...
When Ruan Ruan returned to the agreed place, the sun had already set. Della and the other two had already set up the tent, and the fire nearby was making a crackling sound.
Belial showed off his harvest. He dug up several good-quality medicinal herbs. Della and Nova only killed a few monsters and did not gain much.
Because Ruan Ruan had said before that she could make barbecue, they brought back all the monster corpses.
While Ruan Ruan was preparing the barbecue, she briefly recounted her encounter with the three robbers today, of course omitting the part about Isabella.
"...We will leave after noon tomorrow and return before dark. Don't sleep too deeply tonight."
Beryl patted his chest and said, "Nova and I will keep watch. You two can go into the tent and rest. I want to see if those bastards dare to come again!"
Nova nodded, indicating that he had no objection.
Della was obviously still very angry after hearing her story, and said in a cold tone: "If you dare to come, I will kill you."
Beryl: "Yes, I killed him."
Nova nodded and said he deserved it.
Ruan Ruan looked at the three murderous faces and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
What to do? My friends have been led astray by her. Della used to be an icy beauty.
Della touched her face and looked at her in confusion. Was there something dirty on her face?
Ruan Ruan reached out and wiped her cheek, then waved her finger in front of her eyes, "There is gray smoke."
It must have been accidentally rubbed against it when the ignition was turned on.
Ruan Ruan withdrew her hand nonchalantly, but Della felt the skin on her cheek that was touched getting slightly hot. She raised her eyes and glanced secretly at the girl, who was sprinkling some unknown powder on the barbecue. It was obviously an action that only ordinary people would do, so why did it look so natural and elegant on her?
A strange fragrance wafted out instantly, and someone's stomach made a rumbling sound.
Belial swallowed his saliva, and after Ruan Ruan was sure it was cooked, he stuffed it into his mouth. He was so burned that he gasped and couldn't bear to spit it out, "It's so prickly, hiss... It's so prickly!"
Della took the barbecue she handed over and took a bite. The wonderful taste was so much better than steak that she praised it sincerely, "It's delicious."
Nova didn't say anything, but he was the fastest.
Ruan Ruan is confident in her cooking skills. The recipes in her mind are simply a dimensionality reduction attack on the world. Maybe she can open a restaurant in the future and make money and be happy.
The tent was quite small, so Della and Ruan Ruan slept next to each other.
In the small space, Della seemed to hear her own heartbeat. She took a deep breath to relieve her tension, but she smelled the faint fragrance of a young girl in her nose.
Ruan Ruan had already noticed that her body was tense, and thought that she was not used to sleeping with others. "You go to sleep first, I'll come in later."
"Need not."
Daila grabbed the corner of her clothes and stopped her from getting up. Ruan Ruan lay down again and asked, "Then let's chat?"
"it is good."
Ruan Ruan was still thinking about what to talk about, but Della had already spoken: "Do you like His Highness Ryan?"
"My goal is to marry him." Although she was surprised by this question, Ruan Ruan still told the truth.
"Really?" Della stroked her chest and said softly, "The Royal Family is not suitable for you."
Ruan Ruan suddenly realized that Della was also a candidate for the prince's consort. She had always acted very cold before, so she subconsciously ignored this issue.
"So do you like His Highness Ryan?"
Della shook her head, realizing that she couldn't see, and added, "No, liking it doesn't matter to me." The nobles didn't have a choice in many cases, and Ryan looked cold, so she really didn't like it.
"We can compete fairly." Ruan Ruan roughly understood what she meant, but she would not persuade her to resist the aristocratic marriage because she could not give her practical help.
"No, the choice is in the hands of His Highness Ryan."
Della looked at the pattern on the top of the tent and her eyes gradually became empty. What she wanted to say was that there were too many restrictions in the palace and she would not be happy, but when the words came to her lips she didn't know how to say them.
