54. See "Father-in-law"

The rest of the journey was relatively smooth, and they soon arrived at the palace of the king of Gare.

The King and Queen prepared a very warm dinner to welcome the return of Brandt and Eve.

"Mommy's little angel, you're finally back." Queen Helena hugged Eve warmly, which was obviously a normal action, but there was a cold gaze around her.

Because of his strong possessiveness, Alan doesn't like people other than him to hug Eve, but reason tells him that this is Eve's mother and can't poison her.

Helena couldn't stand the staring, so she let go of Eve and looked at the uninvited guest beside her. To put it bluntly, Allen's first impression on her was extremely bad.

Helena asked Brandt, "Brandt, who is this?" ”

"Mom, this is ...... Duke of Otto, Alan. The purpose of his visit to Gari...... Wait until you have a good meal to explain it to you and your father. Brandt, sensing Helena's displeasure and knowing that it wasn't a few times, walked up to her and said gently, "Eve and I have been in a hurry for a few days just to get a taste of your craft sooner. ”

"I've been ready for a long time, just waiting for you to come back." Helena looked at her favorite daughter and stroked her hair very gently. His gaze touched the tender white neck that emanated, and there were several bright red tooth marks on it.

Helena's breathing stopped for a moment, but years of life in the palace had already honed her ability to be calm. She tossed Eve's hair to the side, covering the few teeth marks that made her heart tremble.

"Come in, my dear, the food won't taste good when it's cold in a moment." Helena urged Eve gently, as if she hadn't seen anything. It's just that when he entered, the gaze staring at Allen was extraordinarily meaningful, even with strong hostility.

********

A dinner that should have been pleasant was spent in the silence of each other's hearts.

After dinner, Eve and Alan left with Mandy leading the way. The King, Helena, and Brandt remained in the study to speak.

"Can anyone explain to me what happened?" After Eve left, Helena's hidden anger gradually ignited, "Brant, how exactly do you take care of your sister?" According to Helena's experience, she only needs to look closely to find that her obedient and sensible Eve has been bullied by men, and the person who bullied her, Eight Achievements is Alan who came to Gary this time.

"Mother...... They like each other in their own right. Brandt explained, "Otto's majesty and queen both agreed to their marriage, and Alan came here to ask Eve for marriage. ”

"Alan is Otto's young legend?" The King frowned, "I'm afraid this doesn't fit, as far as I know, the Duke is very obsessed with the study of dark arts, not to mention that it doesn't fit with Gary's royal philosophy. His castle is filled with either skeletons, zombies, or ghost corpses, and Eve marries them...... Maybe a day or two is okay, but as the days are long, how can you stand it? ”

"But Father, they ...... There is already a husband and wife, and this matter is almost known among the Otto royal family. Eve did not marry him, fearing that his reputation would be damaged. Seeing that his parents were opposed to this marriage, Brant couldn't help but be a little anxious.

"Hmph. So what? Helena looked at Brant coldly, like looking at Allen, "It's just that the Otto royal family knows what, as long as the news is blocked and not spread to Gari, there are people who are willing to ask to marry my Eve." Are you worried that your sister will not be able to marry because of this? So he hurriedly got engaged to her for the marriage? ”

"No, Mother." Brant was pressed tightly by Helena, "It's Eve who is willing, so I ......"

"Would you like to ......? He bullied my Eve like this, where did he want to? After a dinner, Helena was very dissatisfied with the so-called "Eve's fiancé". Her Eve had not liked to eat green peppers since she was a child, and Helena had always been accustomed to letting the kitchen only cook what she liked, but the "fiancé" forced the green peppers on her plate and forced her to eat them with a terrible glare.

Helena's heart hurt when she remembered that her daughter's eyes flickered, and she reluctantly cut the green pepper into small pieces and ate them silently.

And when it was time to leave, he took Eve back to the palace with him. Helena saw it really well, Eve was reluctant at first, but he grabbed his hand and held it in his arms, and her delicate fingers were pinched red, which showed how strong she was.

Thinking of the tooth marks on her daughter's neck, Helena shook her head again and again, what a rude person this must be. Her daughter's husband must be the finest, gentleest, and most considerate man in all of Gari, and what about him? Not even sixty points.

"It's not negotiable." Helena stood up and spoke firmly, "I will never allow anyone to bully my daughter, not anyone. ”

"Father......" Brandt touched Helena's nose and turned to look at the helpless king.

"I agree with your mother's idea." The king also did not want a man who studied the dark arts to marry his own daughter, which was simply a stain on the royal family.

"But father, I remember that you and your mother first summoned the warriors of the Roan Continent to rescue Eve in the Dragon Cave." Brant's azure eyes rolled, "The reason why Eve was able to leave the Dragon Cave and return to Gary was all thanks to the help of Duke Allen. If we don't agree to their marriage, aren't we distrusting our people? ”

"This ......" the king hesitated, in fact he and Helena were initially desperate, because no princess had ever been able to return from Lauren's cave.

Helena also pursed her lips and didn't speak, the minister Jianyì will marry the princess as one of the benefits, because Eve's beauty can attract more warriors to the Dragon Cave to rescue, as a mother, she just hopes that Eve can come back, as for marrying or not, it is not too late to make a decision when the time comes. Even if you really don't marry, the other party won't do anything. They also gave this order in desperation at first, almost with the mentality of "dead horses become live horse doctors".

"Lauren is now in a deep sleep, if on Eve's 16th birthday, it comes back to life, will Eve be taken away by Lauren again, like all Princess Gary?" Brandt's words grabbed Helena's heart like a barb, and the terrifying images of half a year ago replayed in Helena's mind again, and she couldn't go through that hellish scene again.

"So, letting Eve marry Ellen is the best choice. He is a rare legendary magician on the continent of Luoan, and he will definitely be able to protect Eve from being taken away by Lauren and continue to stay by her mother's side. Brandt's words were full of temptation, "Although Alan is a little inconsiderate, he still loves Eve very much. He personally agreed, and for as long as Eve wished, he would stay with her in Gary and not return to Otto. Mother doesn't have to be sad that Eve is far away from marrying. ”

"I'll think again." Helena was so distraught that she immediately left the study, leaving only the king and Brant.

Brandt knew that Helena had been convinced for the most part. In accordance with her love for Eve, she would never risk losing her again. In that case, he only had to convince his father, the king of Gary, that the matter was almost complete, "Actually, father, there is one more thing I have not had time to tell you. ”

"What's the matter?" The king asked.

"The demons invaded Landis, and I met their messenger on the way back to Gari." Landis and the demon clan are adjacent to each other, and they have been suffering from it, "The messenger asked Gary for support, he said, the invasion of the demon clan this time is more terrible than in the past, the demon king led the army, and the three young masters all went to the battlefield, about 300,000 demon troops, but in five days, they have already captured half of Landis. If Landis is captured, Nagari's borders are in jeopardy. ”

It's been peaceful these days...... Why, it's starting to mess up again. The king closed his eyes in pain, the demons poured out, and Gary could not sit idly by, otherwise sooner or later, the iron hooves of the demons would set foot on Gari's territory. But if the army leaves en masse, I wonder if Otto will take this opportunity to invade Gari, "Inform General Ino to come over, summon the envoys again, and we will discuss the countermeasures." ”

"Your Majesty, Duke Allen is a good candidate." Brandt knelt down in front of him and said in confusion, "His magic is far above that of General Ino, and letting him go on the expedition can still make Otto jealous, and he is the best person to support Landis." ”

******

Helena was so worried that she decided to talk to Eve, and she took the carriage to the entrance of Eve's palace, where the guards cooperated to let her in, all the way to the door of the master bedroom.

The door of Eve's master bedroom was open, and Helena faintly heard crying coming from inside, and when she listened closely, she looked uncomfortably at the crack in the door, and her beloved Eve was crying.

"Allen...... Please, don't......" Helena could only see the big bulging hills on the bed, and the bed boards swayed. Eve was holding Alan's neck in the nest, and her big eyes were misty with crying. From the end of dinner to the present, she has been tossed so that her voice is hoarse, "Stop, I'm not comfortable...... Hmm. ”

Helena's heart was broken by crying, how could her baby withstand such a savage toss.

Eren just bit her neck, and he felt the slow flow of blood in fascination, and only in this way could he comfort his soul that was hungry because of "bloodization". He held Eve's slender waist with both hands and continued to attack, and his cool voice was dyed with a little ** taste, "Bear with me, and it will be fine soon." ”

"That's what you said a long time ago...... Lighter, Ellen lighter......" Eve frowned, biting her lip and crying even more pitifully.

Helena couldn't take it anymore, she knocked on the door and cleared her throat, "Eve, mom has something to look for you." ”

The big bulging hill on the bed came to a halt abruptly.
