Chapter 127: Eve For Ellijah
Little Ellijah wants to be like that too.
Not blamed.
Not scolded.
Not beaten.
So unknowingly, he followed Eve's steps with a pounding heart. Maybe he could replicate what the girl was doing. Wouldn't he be treated like that?
Not long after tracing the palace's long and elaborate hallways, they arrive at a ... park? But Ellijah sees glass as its barrier. In his home he did not have a building like this.
"Pick those red flowers and give them to me." Eve pointed, without looking at Ellijah in the slightest.
Huh huh? Is this his first job? If he complies, will the princess teach Ellijah to be like her?
Plucking flowers is not difficult.
He preferred this to be patched with rattan by his father.
Ellijah then stepped up with her chest held up. Little laughter from Eve he could not hear.
... By the way, why is the flower glowing?
"Aghhh!" Ellijah's hands were trembling and hot, her fingertips were burning.
"Didn't the Frost family pass down the ice attribute from generation to generation? It should be that contact with the fire-threaded flower is not that painful. Try it again."
As Ellijah looked up, Eve's wide smiling face blocked the clear sky.
***
Since then Ellijah has been taken more and more by her father to the royal palace, and every time she arrives, Eve always welcomes him.
... It was true, his father no longer beat him often at home. The whip is now replaced by a head and whisper, "Continue approaching the Princess."
He was no longer in pain because of his father.
But ... in the palace is different again.
"What's this?" Ellijah asked nervously, her mouth dry.
"See." Without explaining, Eve had already pressed the trigger button.
Sir!
Small anchors darted quickly along with loud noises, stuck to the wall in the room they were in.
Unfortunately ..., "Aw!" Ellijah whimpering. Due to the strong wind thrust when the anchor in the item was removed, Ellijah's tiny hand stumbled against the table, flushed and would most likely form a bruise.
He's still in pain.
Difference ....
"Ah, you're hurt again." The princess took out a bottle from her dress pocket. The green liquid was generously placed on the injured part. In an instant, Ellijah's pain disappeared.
"It's an artifact I just made, it looks like I have to reduce the wind pressure."
Eve is a smart girl. Not once or twice Ellijah was told to collect materials to be the subject of experimentation from the objects he made.
"Well, cool!" So even though he was in pain, the pain immediately disappeared, plus whatever Eve did was exciting.
Ellijah chooses to get closer to Princess Eve.
And when the adults get them both engaged, the blow from the house is completely gone. Ellijah doesn't even know what it means to be engaged, but she understands that it's a good thing. And he doesn't want to lose that good thing.
After that, the dream that Ellijah felt turned into a belief and a desire to survive.
Each of Eve's requests he fulfilled without complaint.
Years later, Duke Frost, Ellijah's father, dies from an attack by the Northern barbarians.
Many obstacles and obstacles are blocked when Ellijah will inherit the status as Duke. The main reason is "young age, inexperienced age". Unfortunately, from childhood near the princess, transmitting her intolerant and stubborn attitude to Ellijah.
Thus, the relative who challenged his new power was mercilessly destroyed.
As he thought, Eve brought good things for him.
