Chapter 550 - Wonderful Feelings
There was a theory that a pair of twins raised separately from childhood would feel a kind of affection in their bloodline once they met. Because they did not know the identity of the other person, they would mistake it for love.
When two people fell in love with each other like this and spent a long time together, their mistaken love would have a high likelihood of becoming true love.
This theory was not unfounded with countless such cases happening in real life. To a certain extent, this could also be called something akin to the suspension bridge effect.
Similarly, it was said that even other types of blood relationships could cause this effect. In many data from foreign research, it’s shown that fathers and daughters who grew up apart and never met would also have a chance of sparking this kind of love when they meet up.
In a world like Earth that was void of mysteries, such a genetic attraction existed. On the other hand, the world of San Soliel had a stronger attraction due to how bloodlines could be used as power.
At that moment, Aurora felt her heartbeat accelerate and stir. She did not know what this feeling was. There was bitterness, speechlessness, excitement, and even longing, but no matter what she felt she was unable to resist looking at the young nobleman.
For twenty years, Aurora was well protected. Her dragon bloodline allowed her talents to bloom, as a result, she never longed for a male in her life, nor had she felt the bitterness of first love. In short, she did not know what love was.
She knew that all of her being was feeling an attraction. She felt joy as she watched the young man. She felt lost when the young man’s eyes left her. Aurora had read many books and had special sex education, thus she mistook this feeling, which she could not articulate, as the impulse of love at first sight.
“Your Highness… Your Highness…”
Seeing Aurora space out and look like a shy young girl with blushing cheeks, Derek was captivated for a moment. After all, it wasn’t easy for people to resist a legendary rank warlock’s charms. However, as the guard captain, he quickly came to his senses and whispered in Aurora’s ears to pull her back.
“Lord Derek.”
Aurora took a deep breath, but she found it hard to suppress the shaking in her heart. She resisted looking at that young nobleman and tried to maintain her poise and manners. With a scarlet red face, she said, “For what matter did you call me?”
“The waiter told us to go upstairs.”
Derek was puzzled that the princess spaced out, but he did not pay much attention to it, because in Dragon City, there were many people who would space out, especially those country bumpkins who had come for the first time.
Naturally, Derek did not mean to mock the princess as a country bumpkin in his heart. On the contrary, the ruler of this country was her half-sister, so it wouldn’t be a stretch to say that this was also her home.
Guiding them were two elves, a man and a woman, who displayed professional smiles. Elves were all creatures that valued nature and natural beauty. Towards a young girl like Aurora who was a human but possessed beauty that could rival and even exceed that of the elves, they would naturally feel a faint goodwill.
In Dragon City, every merchant adhered to the philosophy of the Dragon God, Louie Galakrond, which was the phrase “the customer is only below the Dragon God”.
This phrase had become the motto of the merchants of Dragon City. Every merchant who opened a store here would do their best to serve their customers. It was thanks to this spirit of service that made many adventurers, nobles, and princes and princesses from various countries linger and spends their gold here.
Hearing Derek’s words, Aurora felt a bit disappointed, she somehow blurted out, “Lord Derek, we aren’t going upstairs. Let’s eat on this floor!”
Derek was stunned, but he could not say no to the princess’ small request. He smiled at the two elves and said, “My lady said that we will eat here, sorry for the trouble!”
The elves politely assented with their faces constantly smiling. The beauty of the elves and their traditional elven dress could truly make people describe them as handsome men and beautiful women. For most people, just watching these elves shuttle between tables was already worth the price.
It’s said that a big noble from another country fell in love with an elven waiter here, so he would come here every day and spend a lot of money. He wanted to gain the favor of the female elf and even said that he would divorce his wife if the elf was willing to marry him.
In the current era of the gods, the Goddess of Silver Moon has once again ascended to the throne as a God, so elves on the continent were living good lives. Those that wished to turn elves into slaves have also become less and less, mostly because those who were still keeping elves as slaves would be pursued by the church of the Dragon God and the church of the Silver Moon Goddess.
You could quarrel with the elves or even fight them to the death if there was a disagreement. The gods would not bother with these simple trivialities, but capturing an elf as a slave would cause a reaction from the churches because ultimately there was no such God called a ‘Slave God’.
After obtaining Derek’s consent, Aurora could not wait and sat on the empty table next to the young man so that she could see him in the corner of her eye.
Aurora did not know what was wrong with her and even felt a sense of reservation. Her self-control as a saint and as a princess was letting up. As long as she could see the other party, she would feel inexplicable peace of mind in the deepest depths of her body and feel joy.
“Aurora, are you peeking at the human male next to you?”
Agnes, the silver dragon who turned into a silver-haired beauty, sat next to Aurora and whispered.
Aurora was startled. She did not expect Agnes to notice her reactions. Aurora panicked and was thinking of an excuse, but Agnes continued, “That human is really attractive, even I want to get close to him.”
Hearing Agnes’ words, the past Aurora would definitely become wary of the man because dragons were creatures that looked down on humans. Let alone having a good impression of a human, having them look each other in the eyes was already considered as a human’s luck.
But at this moment, Aurora did not feel or think that way. On the contrary, she looked at Agnes with a wary gaze. Her heart became nervous and strangely thought that Agnes might have begun to like humans.
Derek, who was a legendary rank warrior, also had something not right with the princess. He looked at the young nobleman on the other table with some doubts. After thinking about it, he did not recognize the young man. The young man might have a noble temperament, but this was common among nobility. At most, this only indicated that the other party’s family had a good history and was most likely the son of a great noble of Dragon City.
The gods were ever-changing, both temperament and appearance could be transformed at will. It was simply impossible for humans to recognize gods by virtue of their temperament and appearance unless those gods displayed their divine power.
“Are you Miss Aurora, the princess of the Subila Kingdom?”
The young nobleman who was drinking alone suddenly spoke out. His voice carried an intoxicating attraction, and his expression was noble and gentle.
“This is the first time meeting you. How about the princess come dine with me?”
The young nobleman issued an extremely bold invitation, which should have been met with a reprimand for his lack of manners. Aurora could even get up and angrily reprimand him for his crude behavior.
Aurora did stand up, but she did not rebuke angrily and looked dazed. As if she could not control herself, she felt inwardly nervous and excited as she sat down opposite the young man.
