Section 93. Ruby

That night, as the royal knight, Annan went to the outskirts of Huadu and the honor guard of the city guard to greet the crimson princess.

Princess Scarlet successfully lives in the princess's garden cottage - on the surface, she has a good relationship with the princess, and secretly she can keep an eye on the fake princess.

The news of Princess Crimson's entry into the city did not have time to be promoted, and the people of Huadu learned that the legendary vampire princess had come to Huadu the next day.

The flower capital was boiling, and the residents gathered in front of the city lord's mansion, unexpectedly...... Welcome to this vampire princess.

"I didn't even know it was so popular......"

During the day, the crimson princess, who "stayed up late", stared at the hustle and bustle outside the window.

"After all, humans love to watch vampires, too."

The crimson princess thought that Annan was sarcastic about herself, and her cheeks were slightly red and showed two small fangs: "Let's bite you again!" ”

Annan accompanied Princess Crimson to look out the window for a while and walked out.

"Where are you going?"

"Send that goblin away."

"Remember to come back with me." Princess Crimson explained in a panic as Annan looked over, "That human city lord said there would be a banquet tonight. ”

"Got it."

After saying hello to Lucy and Dracula, Annan returned to the warehouse.

When asked when the goblin leader was going to leave, it squirmed, "That...... Can I stay a few more days? ”

"Why?"

"In ancient times, we goblins were incomparably powerful, creating one glorious goblin empire after another, standing at the apex of all races......"

Annan didn't believe it, but Editilia chimed in, saying, "It's true...... At that time, they could even become the enemies of the elves. ”

The elves of that time were like the humans of today, the enemies of the ancient elves...... At least it is also the level of the Thirteen Clans of the Nezumi.

"And then?"

"The invincible goblin has provoked a powerful god and sent a curse of divine punishment."

"It's the elven gods!" The goblin leader jumped and screamed.

Annan wants to be as beautiful as an elf...... So loving nature, it must be the goblin who committed an unforgivable mistake: "So what does it have to do with you staying a few more days?" ”

The goblin leader says it wants to prepare some gifts.

No need to ask, the gift is, of course, also paid by Annan.

Annan allowed it, and borrowed a team of Olmedo's knights from Liberty City to protect the goblin leader.

This way, the goblin leader can run around the flower capital because he looks like a "house goblin", and in addition to that, they will follow him to the Southern Moorland - making sure it gets there, and keeping an eye on what it says and does.

In the evening, Annan returned to the city lord's mansion and prepared to attend the banquet with Princess Crimson that night.

"Tonight is a good opportunity for negotiations, have you figured out what you want?"

In view of what Annan has done these days, Dracula's attitude towards Annan has a little more respect: "We don't have much ambition, and we don't want to be too involved with humans, we just want to protect Crimson Castle and the princess ......"

"Then let the flower capital acknowledge the existence of Crimson Castle."

"I don't need human recognition." Princess Crimson snorted.

Her opinion didn't matter, Annan looked at the head maid, and Lucy agreed.

Annan didn't know what to say about Princess Crimson...... They went to such great lengths to pretend to be princesses just to "keep Crimson Castle stable", which is completely inconsistent with the evil camp of vampires...... But it's much more reasonable than "pretending to be a princess and sneaking into Huadu but haven't thought about what to do next".

Annan, Princess Crimson, the False Princess, and Lucy come to the banquet. Compared with last night's grand dinner, this welcome banquet only has Huadu's own people, and at most two or three legends and epic curiosities will be added to join in the fun.

Annan accompanies Princess Crimson to meet with the lord of the castle and tells them about the Crimson Castle's demands.

"That's fine, I'll be in charge of handing over that piece of land to you." The lord of the castle was even more generous than expected, "What else can we do?" ”

Faced with the sincerity of the city lord, Princess Crimson thought for a while: "I want to see the magic image ......"

Looking at the stunned city lord, Lucy who held her forehead, and the fake princess who pursed her lips, Annan thought that it would be okay to do so...... The harmless Scarlet princess outlived the ambitious Scarlet princess. The guests were thinking, and it seemed that they would have to go back and ask the younger members of the family what the magical image was.

In the middle of the feast, Princess Scarlet ran out to the theater to see the magic video.

Annan thought she was just playing the role of the first Huadu, or that Etilia asked her to help promote it - but she really watched "The Fall of the Mage Tower" with relish, and sobbed silently at the end.

"I want you to take a magical image of the Bloodline!"

"Magical images aren't so easy to ......"

"I don't care!" Princess Crimson refused, "I command you as Princess Crimson, now!" ”

"I'm going to think about the script." Annan said perfunctorily.

But when the interest of an eldest lady who can satisfy any request is ignited, it is difficult to extinguish it: "Give you a ...... Three days! ”

"Who's going to play it?"

"Of course."

Annan looked at her: "What about the heroine?" ”

The crimson princess dodged Annan's gaze: "Why are you looking at me, I am the crimson princess, a member of the bloody council, it is impossible to act in a magical image, hmm...... Or forget it......"

Annan swallowed back, "I just want you to recommend a few vampire girls."

They came out of the theater, and Annan took her for a walk around the flower capital, and Princess Scarlet took the visit entirely for fun.

Passing by a shop, Princess Crimson suddenly stopped, and as if attracted by something, asked, "What is this place?" ”

"Here it is...... Tavern, where there are only drunks and cloudy air. "Annan wants Princess Crimson to leave quickly.

"How can a tavern use gems as a sign?" Princess Crimson asked, puzzled.

"Jewel Tavern...... Let's go to another theater, "Annan Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is about to be staged. Annan urged.

At this time, a fat man squeezed out of the store:

"Welcome to Spiro Gem Shop! This young lady, are you going to go in and pick something? ”

Princess Crimson's hesitation turned to firmness, and she lifted her skirt and jumped out of the carriage and into the jewelry store.

Annan stared coldly at the smiling fat boss and followed the crimson princess in.

The Scarlet Princess ignored the dazzling jewels and the attendants she was accosting and walked straight to a red gem about the size of a goose's egg.

It was as if a voice was calling her to pick it up.

The Scarlet Princess raised her head: "Annan, I want that ......"

"If you like it, buy it......"

"I don't have any money."

"Neither do I." Annan said it decisively.

"I want ......," Princess Crimson pleaded softly.

Annan wanted to refuse, but thought of the joy of Princess Crimson these days...... I'm afraid this is the only time that the Crimson Princess, who has been on the run for hundreds of years, has come to the human city-state......

“…… Well, you go back to the car and wait for me. ”
