Warhammer: Return of the Dragon.

After Imrik invited the two staff members to wait for a while, hoping to share a dinner later and leave, the veterans pointed the finger at the prince for stalling for time.

But as for the importance of depicting dragons, Imrik always had one answer. Caledor currently needs time to make up for the human losses caused by too many wars. Too intensive wars are not a good thing for the country.

And because of the large land area, the army in hand cannot be divided into an expeditionary force. In other words, if you want to take people from the hands of the Dragon Prince, there is no way.

After Imric intentionally or unintentionally fixed his gaze on the wall, the location of Qingyan Port in the New World, Randy, the long-term regent, seemed to realize something and stopped the two old friends from wiping away their tears.

One condition was stated, "Then I hope that the organization of this survey team will be in charge of the parliament."

Imrik was just waiting for this sentence, otherwise why would he be wasting his time here? If he didn't listen, he would just get out and leave.

"Of course, the Parliament represents the interests and voices of all classes in Caledor. Even I, the prince, cannot go against the will of the people. If there is a need, please pass it to the palace as soon as possible and I will give you a reply."

This little fox.

Randy cursed in his heart, Imrik inherited Mikhail's ferocity and arrogance without missing a beat, but this shrewdness came from nowhere, and he focused his attention on the court officials.

Edgar and Woodrow looked at each other, their originally mournful faces also stopped, obviously they didn't understand what their old friend and Imrik were expressing.

Randy slapped the armrest and stood up, walked towards the door, and whispered to his old friend who was still blinded,
"Let's go, get ready for the meeting. Everyone will be there at Archibald's Seaside Villa in five days."

After driving away the two old guys who were still asking, Imrik was lying on his chair as if he was paralyzed. It was really hard for him to think about his own people. The main reason was that the pressure of public opinion was really unbearable. It would be difficult for the palace alone to realize this plan. .

After all, power is power, and public opinion is public opinion. There is still a big difference between the two. It is also a good idea to use the noble council as a gun to take the blame.

I sat there and rested for a while, thinking that I had nothing to do next, just waiting for dinner. I was quite interested in the girl named Gladys.

Three hours later...

Gladys, who was wearing a dress, was a little nervous. Compared to Liz, who looked more natural next to her, she was more reserved. She was just a citizen of Azul, who was originally brought to Caledor to see the world. She didn’t have a stellar resume. Add something worth mentioning.

But who would have thought that first he would be hugged by Draconir and said something he didn't understand, and then he would be warmly invited by the Dragon Prince.

She didn't think this was an invitation dinner for nobles who wanted to have an affair with someone. Compared with the Eternal Queen and Princess Tyran Loch, the Dragon Prince's vision couldn't be so inferior.

The Dragon Halberd guards escorted the two of them to the restaurant. Before they even entered the door, they heard Imrik's slightly helpless tone,

"How much can you eat, a brat like you? I can eat pig thighs before I even go out. In two years, you can compete with Minas Nir for the title of Big Eater."

As soon as they entered the venue, they saw Imrik and Adira in the main seats. The difference was that the father had some worry on his face, while the mother was relieved.

"Prince Imrik and Princess Adira, it is our honor to attend your dinner party."

Liz and Gladys rolled up their skirts and performed a court ceremony. They were standard and elegant. Maybe their dresses were a little simple, but they highlighted their simplicity.

Imrik and Adira looked at each other and affirmed the etiquette of the silver-haired girl. As for whether it would be burdensome to find a fiancée for such a young son, it was simply an impossible joke.

Imric was worried that the number of his family was too small, while Adira was worried that his son would become like his father, who only became enlightened at the age of 250, and would almost live with dragons for the rest of his life.

"Please sit down."

The maid opened the seat so that the two of them could intuitively feel the financial resources of the Dragon Palace, including Cathay Glazed Wine Flask, Lothern Royal Red Wine, Bretonnian Truffles, Cosqui Deep Sea Caviar, and Mithril Spoons. …

I'm afraid that if I encounter it once, I will be intoxicated with it for the rest of my life.

The outspoken Imrik was just about to speak, asking Gladys about her background, hobbies, and career plans in the usual way in the military camp, when his wife, who was familiar with her nature, kicked her under the table and motioned for her to speak.

Feeling aggrieved, Imrik could only choose to shut up, hand over the right to speak, and lower his head to eat this rare delicacy.

Adila raised her glass first and asked pretending to be interested.
"I have always been interested in newspapers, especially the people who work in this job. I wonder if you two can tell me why you took up this profession."

No one paid attention to what Liz, the leader, said, and it was automatically filtered out by Imric and Adira. But when it was Gladys' turn, the well-fed Dracnir jumped off the chair, walked to her side, and looked at her. with this prey.

Children don’t understand thoughts, so if you need anything, just say it.

"Mom, can I eat her?" Adira thought to herself. She glanced at Imric, who was immersed in eating and drinking. It must be that the theory of dragons was taught to his son by Ingersus. Next time, he must People should be careful, lest they bring bad luck to their children.

He almost spit out the fish meat in his throat after hearing these words, Imrik taught,

"She is an Asul, how can you eat a compatriot? Did Ingersolls tell you some nonsense?"

"That means you can't eat it." Draconir's disappointment was visible to the naked eye. He thought that this special feeling meant that he wanted to eat it. Ingersolls was obviously so interested in the bison.

"Your Highness is really..." Gladys broke into a cold sweat, feeling that this was some kind of family, and they were actually discussing eating asul in a serious manner.

After thinking for a long time, Wen Wen made a smile,
"unique."

Seeing his son staying next to the girl, he noticed a murderous look in Adira's eyes. Knowing that the situation was not good, Imrik secretly thought that it was not good. The female dragon who was protecting the cub also had this look.

In order to calm the fierce wife's emotions as soon as possible, he said to the girl who was touching Dracnir's little head,

"It's okay, don't worry about him. Just tell me why you got into this profession, your family background, hobbies, career plans, and emotional relationships."

Gladys was embarrassed. She suddenly understood what was going on, but she was just a commoner. Are the requirements of the Dragon Palace so low?

She didn't even know the standards by which the prince and his wife believed that the child should be a female, but Gladys still shared some life experiences, which indeed seemed too ordinary compared to those more famous princesses in Ulthuan.

"My father ran a rural forest farm, and I grew up listening to the songs of nightingales and larks. When I was 15 years old, I was sent to Angrel Duris College, where I won some relevant medals and completed 20 After studying literature and art for several years and obtaining a degree, I joined Seagull Newspaper as an editorial assistant."

Seeing that Imrik and Adira still maintained curious gazes, the girl could only press her scalp and continue talking about her life without highlights.

"I usually like to sketch outdoors and am more interested in pets. I also learn to make some desserts in my spare time."

Imrik put his elbows on the table and asked curiously, "Are the pets you are talking about a gryphon or a white lion? If it's Etain, it should be a phoenix and a giant eagle, right?"

Do you consider these beasts as pets? You are truly worthy of Caledor.

Gladys whispered, "No, it's a cat and a rabbit."

After speaking, the girl lowered her head, fearing that her rosy and shy face would be laughed at.

From this comparison, not only the status and status of the two parties are very different, but also the pattern is so different. Sure enough, the story of the prince marrying Cinderella is a lie, how can there be so many romantic things.

"It's a good hobby for a young girl."

After hearing Imric's praise, Gladys thought it was a comforting word and continued,
"Thank you for your understanding. In terms of career planning, I plan to engage in journalism for a long time. I hope to become the editor of Seagull Newspaper as soon as possible and open a natural environment section for the newspaper. As for emotional relationships, I have no plans at the moment."

The more he heard about Gladys, the more satisfied he became. Imrik felt that he had found a treasure and was even happier than finding his own wife.

The Dragon Tamer family is already at the pinnacle of power in Ulthuan. After the demise of the Aenarion family in name only, it is truly the most prestigious family and does not need marriage to consolidate power.

Her family background is innocent, and her interests and hobbies are in line with Asul's traditional female image. The most important thing is that her son is interested, and there is nothing else he can choose.

The Dragon Prince turned his attention to Liz, who was eating melon beside him, and emphasized,

"You already are, am I right, Miss Lizzie?"

Liz, who had already understood what was happening, nodded immediately. If Gladys joined the Dragon Tamer family, let alone become an editor, the head of the publicity department of the Phoenix Court would be a trivial matter.

"We underestimated Gladys's potential too much. When I return to Lothern, I will explain to my superiors that Seagull Newspaper will immediately open a new section with Gladys as the editor-in-chief."

"Very good." Praising the discerning female reporter, Imric immediately said, "Since you asked about the Vaal Anvil volcano today, let Gladys go to search and observe it personally. The people of Ulthuan need to know , Caledo has the ability to control all risks within its territory."

Looking for the Vaal Anvil volcano?This is really big news, but it seems too obvious why Liz is not happy at all. All I need is Imrik to say, Gladys is the princess reserved for my son, who dares to try it? try.

"Thank you very much for your support. Gladys will stay in Caledor in the near future. After getting some news about the Vaal Anvil volcano, it will not be too late to return to Lothern. We will make all preparations to open a new section."

It’s a decision that will make the future of a naive assistant a good one or a bad one. If you do it well, you will be the future princess of Caledor. If you don’t do it well, you will be a withered bone in the gutter. But Liz felt that she had to take a gamble. Why is it a fairy tale? It can't be realized. (End of chapter)
