Chapter 417: The Prince and the "Witch"
If they ask themselves, Triss probably doesn't know why she would ask this sentence in a ghostly way.
Perhaps because she was about to leave this place that she regarded as a sea of suffering, it meant that she would be separated from Prince Edsak forever...... But isn't that what you've always longed for?
Why do I ask, will Edsak reply that he willing, and I will choose to stay?
That's impossible, but why am I looking forward to Edsak's next answer?
However, no matter what he says, it can't stop me from getting out of here, I'm a man, and even if I become a "witch" now, I will never marry a man!
Triss repeated this idea several times in her heart with great firmness.
It's just that her gaze seems to have been inadvertently flowing over Edsak's face, taking in the latter's expression.
…………
Prince Edsak's mood was somewhat mixed.
Hearing Triss's question, it seemed to mean that she had finally accepted herself, and was even willing to marry her, His Royal Highness the Prince's first reaction was to be pleasantly surprised, and almost subconsciously wanted to agree.
But after all, he remembered that he was the king's son.
Many in the royal family of Rune wanted him to marry Miss Audrey of Earl Hall's family, not only to win over the New Party, but also to show goodwill to the "Church of the Night Goddess", and the former Edsak was not averse to this.
Of course, when he met Triss, his mind changed immediately.
But love can move oneself and bring happiness, but it can't change other people's opinions.
His Royal Highness the Prince, marrying a commoner woman will bring shame on the royal family, will attract unimaginable resistance, and the privilege of being a prince in the past will all turn into pressure at that moment.
Therefore, Edssac is not unwilling, but he is not able to give a promise at all, he has the ability to give Triss love, but he does not give Triss the courage to marry.

So, he fell silent.
In the process of thinking about this, Edsak almost wrote all the changes in his emotions on his face, and Triss, who had been paying attention to it, naturally saw it at a glance.
For some reason, her heart seemed to twitch, maybe relieved, maybe sad.
She didn't quite know.
In this rare silence, Triss looked into the distance, as if she was just admiring the beauty of the world.
Suddenly, Edsak raised his head, and there seemed to be a slight tremor in his tone, and he said:
"Triss, we ......"
At this moment, a series of hurried footsteps quickly came, and a man who was nearly middle-aged walked briskly onto the balcony, interrupting the conversation between the two.
"What for?" Edsak's tone was a little unkind, he looked at the familiar servant in front of him, and asked in a deep voice:
"What makes you so flustered?"
The middle-aged man's sharp gaze quickly swept over Triss, and then fell softly on Prince Edsak, and bowed down and replied:
"Your Highness, in the north direction, not far from the manor, there is a battle between extraordinary people, the battle seems to be fierce, I am worried about your safety, Your Highness, so I came up to protect."
Edsak glanced at Triss and gave her a reassuring look, then frowned, turned to the middle-aged man and said:
"The battle between the extraordinary, who are the two sides of the battle? Is it possible to spread to this side? ”
"It's not clear yet, Your Highness." The middle-aged man replied respectfully.
"Then go find out." Edsak ordered in a deep voice: "Bring more people, if it is the operation of MI9 or the three major churches, then provide some assistance depending on the situation." ”
The middle-aged man raised his head reluctantly and blurted out:
"But your safety ......, Your Highness"
Edsak waved his hand, interrupting as if impatiently:
"I don't have to worry here, just carry out the order, Beckland has been messy enough lately, not enough to make people laugh!"
The middle-aged man seemed to want to refute, but when he saw the resolute appearance of His Royal Highness the Prince, he bowed down and withdrew, but before leaving, he focused on Triss, and the latter only gave him a calm glance and never spoke.
The middle-aged man's movements were fast, and it didn't take long for a whole team to gather, most of them were the guards of His Royal Highness the Prince, and they left the Red Rose Manor in a neat manner, galloping away in the direction of the outbreak of spiritual fluctuations.
Edsak and Triss, who were witnessing this scene from the balcony on the third floor, were silent for a while, and His Royal Highness seemed to have made up his mind, and spoke again:
"Triss, we ......"
Unfortunately, this time he still couldn't get his words out of his mind, as Triss made a gesture that interrupted him a second time.
Seeing that most of the familiar guards had left the manor, Triss had a long-lost heartfelt smile on her face, and when she turned around and saw Edsak's sincere appearance, she immediately raised her index finger to her lips and said:
"Wait a minute, you close your eyes first."
Edsax was a little surprised, but he still closed his eyes obediently and asked:
"Triss, what do you want to do?"
"I want to ......," Triss paused, then added half a second later, "Do what I've always wanted to do." ”
Edsak's eyes opened suddenly, and he wanted to speak, but his head was groggy, and his body quickly became weak, so he sat down limply, with a look of disbelief on his face, and a palpable urgency......
Triss gently supported His Royal Highness the Prince and placed him on the chaise longue, feeling a little complicated.
She raised her right hand and slid it over Edsak's cheek, not saying more, only to sigh inexplicably at the end, a sense of relief hidden in it.
Then, she deliberately knocked over the delicate tables, chairs, and tea sets, creating a spiritual fluctuation that was not weak, and then flew down, and her figure became transparent in mid-air at the same time.
She had time to listen to what Edsax had to say, but she didn't choose to listen...... There's no superfluous reason, I just don't want to hear it.
Soon, Triss's movement attracted the Extraordinary Guards who stayed inside the manor, and they were shocked to see His Royal Highness the Prince, who had fallen asleep, and after confirming the signs of His Royal Highness's life that His Royal Highness was still safe, they were relieved, but they were powerless to pursue Trissie.
And what Edsak didn't say was this:
"Triss, if I'm not a prince and I'm just your husband, okay?"
This is also the reason why His Royal Highness the Prince would take away his own guards, otherwise normally, he would not have this obligation at all.
Unfortunately, he didn't succeed in saying it, and Triss did the right thing, she didn't let herself hear it, and left the place decisively.
In a way, this is also a kind of luck.
