Ch. 139 - Conversation on the II Horse-Carriage

In another horse-drawn carriage.

Currently inside a carriage that looked slightly different from the other nine horse carriages three girls were chatting merrily inside.

“Hey, Alice why did uncle ask you to join this hunt?” Asked a long red-haired girl with bright red eyes to her friend.

“Natasha, I don't ahu either. Ayahanda just said that I need to know someone here.” Replied the wavy red-haired girl with blue eyes named Alice.

“H... Alice you said your father asked you here to get to know someone?” Asked a girl with long black hair and a slender body.

“Iya Yueru, father said that and he also said maybe I married this man.” Alice answered calmly.

Among the nobility, political marriages like this were commonplace and she was lucky that her father asked for her opinion first before deciding on the man she married, that's why Alice is now here to get to know the man she's about to be betrothed to.

“Heh... You're also here to keep an eye on someone as well.” The long black haired girl who was none other than Ying Yueru frowned trying to think of something. Ying Yueru herself followed this hunt at the request of her father, Ying Zhen who was the Emperor of the Qin Empire.

After returning to Qin Empire after attending the annual auction in the Silver Moon Pavilion, Ying Yueru reported all things happening to her to her father, Emperor Ying Zhen. Ying Yueru told him about the auction she had followed until the moment of the assault that had befallen her during the auction. Then Ying Yueru told her father about Ray helping her and all the conversations Ray had with her.

Emperor Ying Zhen who heard all the stories of Ying Yueru was quite surprised by Ray's own existence. As an emperor of a great empire, Ying Zhen certainly knew all the information about Ray which was one of the Silver Moon Kingdom's greatest royal family secrets.

In the information Ying Zhen had recorded that Ray was born from an illegitimate relationship between the youngest son of Julius and a younger sister of the famous general of the Silver Moon Kingdom. There it is also noted that Ray himself has repeatedly refused the royal family baptism which means refusing to become a member of the Silver Moon Kingdom royal family.

In addition, in the record also recorded Ray's personal data, abilities, and, as well as his actions in the military and political world of the Silver Moon Kingdom so that Emperor Ying Zhen knew that Ray was someone who was not interested in meddling in the political and military matters of the Silver Moon Kingdom even though he was he was the most talented man of his generation.

After hearing all the stories from her daughter, Ying Yueru as well as all the data and records she had. Finally Emperor Ying Zhen decided to send his daughter to temporarily supervise the truth of Ray's figure himself. And on the other hand Emperor Ying Zhen also wanted to form a relationship with Ray through his daughter.

“Yueru, what are you thinking? And what do you mean by also..?” Alice's question interrupted Ying Yueru's daydream.

“Ah, the... Actually my father also asked me to find out about someone and get to know him more closely, therefore I was surprised if you get the same request.” Ying Yueru replied with a little awkwardness.

“That's a young man who is a core descendant of the Ainswoth family, His name is Ray Ainsworth.” Ying Yueru replied in a soft voice while noticing the reaction from Alice.

Alice felt a little surprised by Ying Yueru's reply and her facial expression briefly changed slightly before regaining calm, he did not expect at all that the person his father asked him to watch over as well as the prospective person he would be betrothed to was the same person who attracted Emperor Ying Zhen's attention and the surveillance target of Ying Yuangu.

“Eh.. That's... Yueru, actually my father also sent me here to watch over and get to know more about Ray Ainsworth.” Alice tried to speak calmly but still could not hide her awkwardness.

Meanwhile Natasha who was following the conversation the two of them felt that there was something strange in this conversation, he tried to think what his uncle and Emperor Ying Zhen wanted from Ray until they both sent his own daughter to a place like this. Because for Natasha, both Alice and Ying Yueru are one of the most talented princesses of each empire and kingdom even though only born from a concubine.

“Ehm... Alice, Yueru, what exactly are you talking about? Watching Ray? Know him better? Are you guys gonna do something to Ray?” Natasha asked her confusion at the two of them in a confused tone.

Meanwhile, both Ying Yueru and Alice who heard Natasha's question were at a loss to answer. In contrast to Natasha who has less experience in political and social relations because she is more focused on practicing her magic skills, Alice and Ying Yueru who were direct princesses in the royal family were much more understanding about social and political matters.

Both Ying Yueru and Alice had already realized what their two parents meant, who indirectly want to match the two of them with Ray who has extraordinary talent but is not too attached to the Silver Moon Kingdom royal family in the hope that in the future they can get help from Ray if anything happens in their empire and kingdom.

“This is not a big deal Natasha, we were only asked to see Ray's ability in more detail because maybe we will become allies in the future to face the Devil Race which is starting to get more ferocious lately.” Alice tries to answer with half the truth and half a lie because she is ashamed to say that she was asked to come here to get to know the person she might be betrothed to.

“Oh, so..” Natasha simply nodded accepting Alice's reasonable-sounding answer.
