I, The Dragon Overlord - Chapter 572
Chapter 572 – Companionship and Waiting
“Miamont…..”
Louie gently shook the hands of the teenager in front of him as he introduced himself.
At these words, the young man named Elvis Savoy turned a bit serious for a moment and then causally regained his original expression as if nothing had happened.
The Miamont family was a mysterious one in the Dragon Kingdom. As the son of a Duke, Elvis knew about all the nobles in the entire country. He even knew about the family heads of Earls and above ranks. The only exception was the Miamont family because it was simply too mysterious. It was as if this family never existed and Elvis had only heard of it.
Although the Miamont family was of Count nobility, Elvis had been warned by his father that this family was related to the royal family and should be a branch family. They were low-key but he should not go and provoke them.
Elvis would certainly not try to do such a thing. What did the royal family of the Dragon Kingdom represent? The current royal family was Her Majesty Alexia alone, in other words, the Miamont family must have been related to the gods!
No one in the world was willing to provoke a family related to a god.
In addition, those who could attain the rank of duke were strict with educating their children. It was rare to actually see people mindlessly making enemies outside of novels. If the duke’s family really had such a person, then the family might just disown them. Those of a higher status were more gentle and polite. Only small nobles might have those that look down on people.
The young man named Elvis was very chatty. With just a few sentences, he was able to integrate himself into Louie and Aurora’s conversation. Louie just watched with amusement as he gradually became the protagonist of the conversation, but Elvis did not snub anyone. Although everyone could tell that he was interested in Aurora, his words did not make Louie feel like a supporting actor.
In short, he was a very capable young man.
He was not angry at Elvis’ interruption at all. As the saying went, ‘Beauty attracts attention, and gentlemen pursue noble ladies.’ With Aurora’s beauty, it was only natural for her to be admired by many. Moreover, Louie felt that the successors of the nobles of the kingdom that he created were very capable. This told him that there didn’t seem to be any scent of corruption in the country, and on the contrary, it was flourishing and prosperous.
Soon, Elvis left. It wasn’t that he wanted to leave, but he had inadvertently seen the glint in his father’s eyes and had to say goodbye.
“Elvis, what were you doing just now?!”
The Duke of the Savoy family called Elvis to a corner and spoke with vague fear and anger.
“Weren’t you the one who told me to try to woo Her Highness, Princess Aurora, father?”
Elvis spoke carefully. He did not know why his father was so angry and could even feel the fear in his words.
Elvis felt wronged. This was indeed a task given to him by his father, but he was not required to succeed and only had to try if he could succeed. If he could make Princess Aurora fall in love with him and marry the princess, then the Savoy family could take a huge leap ahead of other families.
If that happened, the Savoy family would become the royalty of the Subila Kingdom. If the two of them could have children, then the Savoy family could also have the blood of God.
However, the Savoy family did not dare use any plots especially since this matter not only involved the Subila Kingdom but also the descendants of god! They could only try to see if the two sides would fall for each other.
“I’m not asking you about that. I’m asking you if you confronted… if you confronted Count Miamont or not?”
Duke Savoy did not dare reveal Louie’s true identity and just hoped that his son could understand him.
And Elvis did not disappoint the Duke. From his father’s tone, Elvis also sensed that something was wrong as if the identity of Count Miamont was not so simple.
He carefully thought about the previous conversation and spoke hesitantly, “I don’t… I don’t think I said anything excessive. I just had a good chat with Count Miamont.”
Hearing him say so, Duke Savoy was relieved, “Okay. Okay, Elvis. I know you really like Princess Aurora, but it’s better not to pursue her from now on.”
When it comes to such prominent families, their actions were often aimed at avoiding any major mistakes rather than achieving remarkable accomplishments. Regardless of the circumstances, it would be preferable for the family to exercise more restraint.
Although Elvis was at a loss, he did not dare refute his father’s words. He could only hang his head down, “Yes, I know, Father.”
……
“That young man named Elvis is excellent. Are you not moved, Aurora?”
Louie could hear every word in every corner of this banquet hall in extreme detail, but he did not care about the nasty things that people were talking about. Instead, he focused on Aurora and asked.
“I, I have not been moved at all.”
“Oh? Then are you moved by me?”
“Father God!”
Aurora pouted as her face was immediately dyed red, but she was internally quite shocked. She found herself becoming more and more used to being pampered like this.
Thinking so, she became anxious and scared.
“Aurora, after this, why don’t you stay in Dragon City for a while and connect with Alexia to strengthen your bonds? I admit that I haven’t taken any responsibility for you these past twenty years. Give me a little more time and I will personally come and spend more time with you.”
Louie’s words stunned Aurora and she spoke in a strange tone, “Father God, are you leaving for some kind of business?”
Aurora was a little confused. As a powerful god, why would Louie have to make the incarnation leave? If Louie truly had some other business, there should be other incarnations that he could use.
Then Aurora guessed that there might be a big event between the gods. Louie had a reason to take back all his incarnations, so she did not dare ask more questions.
“Yes, I need to take back the incarnations, so I can’t accompany you for this period of time.”
Louie didn’t explain much.
The Crystal Wall System had the power to cut off the connection between a god and their incarnations. As a result, no god had traveled past the Crystal Wall System because it would require their true body to move.
Although the wormhole created by the Terran Civilization allowed Louie to travel past the Crystal Wall System by scientific methods, Louie had to prepare for the worst-case scenario, so he decided to call back all of his incarnations before going back to Earth. That way, everything would be secure.
If his incarnation was in the world of San Soliel, and his true body returned to Earth, and the connection between both sides was really broken, then the incarnation that was originally one with the real body might just become another god separate from him. This was like those myths where the god would separate a part of their body to create a new god. This was not something Louie wanted to see.
“Your business is more important, Father God! I am already very happy that you thought of me in the midst of your busy schedule.”
Aurora said respectfully.
The fact that Louie was leaving did not cause Aurora to lose hope, but rather it made her happy because Louie was still thinking of her even if he had other business to attend to. He even decided to spend more time with her after his business was over. For Aurora who had not experienced fatherly love, this was enough to make her smile.
“Don’t worry about waiting too long. Things will be over soon.”
He reassured her.
The time rates of the two worlds were different. Even though Louie would stay on Earth for a long time, it would only be a short period of time in the world of San Soliel.
