What exactly is love?

For Ludwig, who had only just seen the unique colors of feminine beauty in Marguerite and Anastasia, there was no solution to this question.

At present, his impression of "love" is generally from his adoptive parents.

There is no doubt that John and Betty are a couple who love each other, and even if there are occasional small arguments in life, they will soon be reconciled.

However, what is other is someone else's, and what is your own is your own.

Just because his parents love each other doesn't mean that Ludwig understands what love is.

If he were an ordinary person, he would naturally have enough time to learn this.

It's okay if you don't know how to fall in love at the age of eighteen, but it's not a minority at the age of twenty, thirty, even if you're forty years old, you don't understand what love is.

Life is a long journey, and happiness has different appearances, even if you don't meet someone you like until you are sixty years old, it is still an excellent life.

The problem is that the world doesn't allow Ludwig to take his time to learn this.

Her Majesty the Empress of the Holy Roman Empire, dear Mary, considered him her illegitimate child and made him the crown prince.

From that moment on, his life was destined to be uneventful.

He is no longer an unknown student of the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts, an ordinary young man in a small Bavarian town, but a world-renowned crown prince of the Holy Roman Empire.

The name Ludwig has been recited by countless people.

From the Eskimos, who hunt seals for a living at the end of the world, to the African tribes in the rainforests that still use chiefdom.

From the down-and-out aristocracy of the old Europa continent to the council chambers of the New Roman Confederation.

Wherever there was a human being, they were talking about him, his marriage, and the future of the Roman Empire.

The whole world, because of the name, is in a state of frenzy, imagining a better, peaceful future.

In this context, Ludwig's marriage was no longer his business alone.

This seems a bit unbelievable, and the "Twelve Concubines Proposal" is even considered too conservative by many people, and calls for expansion to "twenty-four concubines" and "seventy-two concubines" have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

The Eastern Roman Empire alone submitted more than three digits of candidates for concubines who had been preliminarily screened.

On the African continent, a delegation of 1,000 people was sent in one go.

Even the most unreliable Neo-Roman Confederation organized a luxurious team to visit Vienna.

All of a sudden, the entire Vienna hotel was full, and in addition to the officially endorsed legations, many groups from the social level gathered here.

Obviously, no one wants to miss the marriage of Crown Prince Ludwig.

The gold acquisition plan led by Xia Jing and Margaret also made a lot of money.

Gold from all over the world is pouring towards Vienna, and everyone knows that Crown Prince Ludwig's wedding is going to build an unprecedented golden spectacle, one by one.

The piles of all kinds of gold coins, gold nuggets, and gold jewelry piled up in the underground vaults of the Vienna court made the summer whales and summer shark sisters from the world of mermaid tragedy completely stunned.

Therefore, they have a real experience of the importance of the golden sign of "Ludwig".

The future Emperor of the New Roman Empire, the only Roman transcendent sword saint in this world, his concubine position is priceless!

Corresponds to the position of the twelve concubines in the Roman astronomical calendar, which is to be recorded in the history of this world!

Without a place among the twelve concubines, the top of the future New Roman Empire would have no right to speak, which is a truth believed by many Holy Roman Empire Grand Dukes and Eastern Roman Empire nobles.

Obviously, Ludwig never said a word about unifying the two Roman Empires, but everyone just believed that he was the next "Caesar Octavian Julius Augustus Constantine".

A statement of reconciliation between the two emperors of the Holy Roman Empire and the Eastern Roman Empire.

Rumors that Princess Anastasia of the Eastern Roman Empire is suspected of living with Crown Prince Ludwig.

The proposal of the "Twelve Concubines" unanimously adopted by the two Roman Empires.

All this happened after the appearance of Crown Prince Ludwig!

The new Roman Divine Blood is still a transcendent Sword Master, and only he can do this kind of thing!

Ludwig, this is the name blessed by God, the hope for the future of the Roman world.

At the same time, he has the name of both the Roman Emperor and the Roman Sword Master, which can only be compared to the first Roman Emperor!

Aside from the joke of the New Roman Confederation, the people of both Roman Empires were hopeful of Ludwig, even if he really didn't do anything.

Eighteen-year-old Ludwig, who had not yet ascended to the throne of emperor, was already known as the revivalist of the Roman Empire, a virtuous monarch.

In the 100th year of the Sunshine Calendar, the marriage of Crown Prince Ludwig has become the most important news at the turn of the century, and there is no one.

Probably, only Ludwig himself, who was fishing, did not realize how many people's lives would be changed by his choice.

For Ludwig, fishing was not only a reassuring activity, but also a place to observe the mysterious altar of the Spirit Fish.

The level of civilization is far behind the mermaid world of the Roman world, and only this altar represents a technology far beyond the Roman world.

Chrono-temporal link, Lingyu network, the door of different time and space, no matter which one is taken out, it is a veritable black technology, and even the technical principle cannot be analyzed.

"Huh?"

There was something strange in the depths of the pond, as if the strings of the world had been plucked, which surprised Ludwig.

The traces of time have changed.

In the field of vision of absolute time, the bottom of the pond that had recently become the nest of the spirit fish clan showed a deep and ancient aura.

"Hey, it's the first generation!"

"How come, didn't the first generation all sacrifice?"

"It's the first generation of the New Roman Federation, and there are survivors!"

There was a commotion in the direction of the altar, and Ludwig pricked up his ears to hear the exclamations of the spirit fish.

Even the megalodon, which has always been salted, drilled down in surprise, apparently aware of some unusual change.

In a few moments, Ludwig's rod began to tremble, and something was biting.

This feel, this trembling frequency!

Ludwig, who had caught a lot of spirit fish from this pond and brought them to the table, noticed the anomaly as soon as possible.

It's so heavy!

Compared with other spirit fish that were caught, the spirit fish that was hooked this time, or something else, was extremely heavy.

It's not the "heaviness" of mass, but the "heaviness" of the power of time, which is in some ways heavier than the megalodon and summer shark combined.

It's so light!

There was such a large trace of time, but it perfectly matched the frequency of Ludwig's fishing rod, and it also made a sound to him.

Without any difficulty, Ludwig pulled up the fishing rod.

A touch of ice blue color appeared in front of Ludwig gorgeously.

It was the most beautiful, slender and elegant spirit fish Ludwig had ever seen.

Unlike other spirit fish that are translucent and can travel with the wind, this spirit fish's entire body is dyed with that mysterious ice blue.

It swims in the air without the help of the wind, and the fin flick will naturally bring a trace of soft mist.

Loved by heaven and earth, like the darling of the world.

Ludwig fell in love with this ice-blue spirit fish at first sight.

Like Margaret and Anastasia, this ice-blue spirit fish has its own unique color and is unique in the whole world.

"It's so beautiful, this first generation has evolved!"

"Why hasn't she connected to our Spirit Fish Network yet?"

"It's so beautiful, what do you have to do to complete this level of evolution!"

"I'm willing to die a hundred times in order to evolve into this!"

"It's so cute, it turns out that our Spirit Fish Clan still has this kind of evolution route!"

"Little sister, little sister, tell us what kind of price we have to pay to complete this evolution!"

Compared to Ludwig, the spirit fish of the Holy Roman Empire in the pond knew what a subversive breakthrough it was.

None of the previous generations of the Spirit Fish clan had ever had such a beautiful transcendent individual.

The Lingyu family, which has a very weak concept of life and death, is taking the direction of improving the survival rate by means of population.

To this end, the Spirit Fish have evolved an incredible network of supertemporal populations, as well as the ability to pass through world barriers.

They can cross the barriers between worlds and worlds, not because they are strong, but because they are too weak.

Except for the illusion of hiding itself, as well as the ability to adapt to the environment and self-splitting, the Spirit Fish Clan has no combat ability.

Like this ice-blue spirit fish, being able to control the water element to swim in the sky with its own strength is a realm that is impossible for a normal spirit fish to reach.

Mutants!

There are special cases that can arise in any race, some to become more powerful and faster, and some to gain better hearing and vision.

The vast majority of mutations are failures, because the characteristics of the population itself have been tested by the world and are the guarantee for the continuation of the population.

The mutation of this ice-blue spirit fish did not look like a failure at all, but far beyond the perfect evolution that appeared in the understanding of the spirit fish clan.

Yes, that is what the Lingyu clan is pursuing, a beautiful dream that can be said to be unattainable.

At the same time, the perfect cluster of organisms with extraordinary power and population consciousness is also the miracle that the Lingyu people want to get from tirelessly searching for different worlds.

At this moment, the changes in this ice-blue spirit fish are revealing a certain possibility for the future of the spirit fish clan.

This is the first and crucial step towards a breakthrough.

Like the change from zero to one, the miracle of the beginning of all things.

The ice-blue spirit fish swam beside Ludwig, rubbing Ludwig's cheek with his body from time to time, which was extremely comfortable.

For the call of the spirit fish clan, it seems to be a little unreasonable.

"It's such a beautiful fish, and it's a waste to eat it."

Ludwig tried to stretch out his right hand, and easily held the spirit fish in the palm of his hand.

This ice-blue spirit fish that emerged from the underground altar, the "first generation" as the spirit fish clan called, was not at all afraid of Ludwig's appearance.

Well, the sluggish Ludwig didn't think anything was wrong either.

Those spirit fish that were caught by him on their own initiative never resisted until they were eaten by him.

Sacrificing oneself and not caring about one's individual life seems to be the characteristic of the Lingyu family.

Anyway, the speed of self-division and multiplication is very fast, and the ones that Ludwig and Anastasia eat are not even a fraction.

When encountering the enemy, the Lingyu clan never wanted to fight, and if they could use illusion to deceive them, they would deceive them, and if they couldn't deceive them, they would scatter and flee.

Escaping is shameful, but effective.

As long as my population multiplies fast enough, it will never go extinct.

For this reason, the Lingyu clan even derived the technique of traveling through time and space by throwing their fry into another world.

"I ...... ...... from afar"

"New populations...... ...... was born"

"This man...... It's a special ......."

It took a long time for the ice-blue spirit fish from the New Roman Federation, the most beautiful representative of the ghost fish family, to connect to the population network of the local spirit fish family.

Because of the change in the nature of life, this process is somewhat difficult, which is equivalent to reconstructing all the signals of words and language and translating them simultaneously.

Fortunately, the extraordinary power injected by the ghost bone banner was enough, and the translation was finally completed.

The Ice Blue Spirit Fish, that is, the Ghost Spirit Fish that carries the consciousness of the first ten years, has successfully joined the population of the Holy Roman Empire.

"I ...... Came for him to meet......"

"I ...... I miss him......"

"I ...... Want to be with him......"

"I ...... Like him. ”

Chu Eleven connected to the Lingyu network here, and said his heart shyly.

Even if she is tortured by a hundred years of loneliness, even if she is imprisoned in that small courtyard, the devil girl from the world of Huangquan still does not change her original intention.

Even, because of the abnormal time distortion in this world, her feelings for Ximo in her heart became more and more hot.

After discovering that the ghost fish can become a "node" for herself to connect to this world, she did not hesitate to throw her consciousness into this most beautiful ghost fish and jump time and space to the Holy Roman Empire.

"Uh......"

Being liked by a spirit fish, Ludwig felt a little weird.

She probably didn't know that her absolute sense of time could read the super-temporal network information of the Lingyu clan.

However, it was indeed a beautiful spirit fish that even Ludwig loved.

Or, raise one?

Ludwig thought it through and made his decision in less than five seconds.

You can raise!

Both are the crown princes of the Holy Roman Empire, so it should be fine to have a slightly strange pet.

"I'm ...... The 10th ......"

Okay, I don't even need a name.

Welcome to the Holy Roman Empire, welcome to me.

Ludwig gently shook his fishing rod.

Fishing, indeed, is an activity that can cultivate sentiment and bring luck.

Insist on fishing, there will be gold, mermaids, and spirit fish.

Fishing, long live!
