"What are you talking about?"
The door at the junction of the carriages was pushed open again, but the sound of pushing the door was covered by the noise outside the carriage. In addition to carrying the Jenkins family and other members of the royal family on this train, there are also some nobles who came to Norland with Queen Isabella, and they will also return to Beldyland.
It was Sigrid who entered the door. Similarly, she was also wearing a heavy dress, but compared to the two dresses worn by Hathaway and Britney, the style she wore was simpler and did not require a servant People accompanied them to help tug on the hem of the skirt.
"Talking about Jenkins, don't know where he went!"
Dolores spoke first to prevent Julia from talking about the topic just now.
"Isn't Jenkins here too? Really, everyone's looking for him."
Sigrid covered her forehead with some annoyance, and the maid invited her to sit down and have a cup of tea.
"So why are you looking for Jenkins?"
Dolores looked at the other party's dress, and felt that the decoration of the green leaf pattern was very beautiful.
"It's about the church. I just met my father, and my father said, let me remind Jenkins to hand in the resignation report within three days, and let me bring him this letter of introduction."
Jenkins is leaving Nolan because of his status as king, and will stay in Beldyland in the future. This is equivalent to his church work relationship, which is also transferred to the Diocese of Beldiran. Of course, the Church of the Sages is happy to do this. It is also the church's hope that the Holy Son, the savior of the world, can reside in the archdiocese where the Holy See is located.
Therefore, he has to hand in a report to formally resign from the Diocese of Nolan. According to the usual practice, he has to hand in a letter of introduction signed by the bishop of the area and hand it over to the diocese he is about to enter to complete the transfer of working relationship.
"Isn't it okay for Dad to give the letter to Jenkins when he gets to Beldyran?"
said Dolores, and Julia called the maids for more tea:
"Papa is going to Beldyran anyway, didn't Jenkins say. Will Papa take the train next week?"
Although Dad lost the evolution key, he is still a demigod-level bestower. Without the key, there is no curse, so reassignment to the more important parish of Beldiran. As for the curse of the three-day life, Jenkins solved it after he came back. Jenkins is not yet a master, but he has been recognized because of the power of the rules of the other world that he manifested due to [Blessing of Books], and he can exert part of his master power.
The curse of the evolution key is not a problem at all.
Of course, unlike Jenkins, Dad can leave without worries. He has been operating locally for many years and still has a lot of things to deal with. Not to mention, the antique shop that has invested many years of hard work has to complete the handover.
Dolores heard from Jenkins that the church arranged for a new antique shop owner to take over the jobs of Jenkins and Dad. Jenkins also joked with the girls in the family that Aunt Sally, in the souvenir shop next door, would probably miss Dad.
Therefore, Dad will not set off with Jenkins, he will leave after dealing with Nolan's affairs.
"I heard from Hathaway that another student of my father, Miss Stewell, seems to be going to Beldylan as well."
Dolores thought of this somehow.
"Although Hathaway didn't mention it, I heard some inside stories. It seems that there are some problems inside the music church."
Sigrid said cautiously, in fact, it was the other three leaders who began to doubt Miss Stillwell's identity. And the entire children's music congregation will actually be stationed in Beldyland, not only because of the new treaty signed by the Orthodox Church and the False God Church, allowing them to open churches, but also because the archbishop Lydia Burnley, who is not an archbishop Miss Te, as well as the "composer of the music score" Miss Briley Harms, made up their minds to expand the influence of the order by relying on the opportunity of the members of the order to become queens.
Of course, Hathaway is also very happy to help her sect develop.
"I've also heard news from within the Orthodox Church that in a few months, a meeting will be held in Beldylan, a collective meeting of all religious orders, to further adjust the drafted terms and add regulations to aspects that are not involved. "
Sigrid said again, thinking for a while and adding:
"Actually, it's normal. Even the "Great Tower Agreement" has been revised many times. The new terms drafted at the end of the eighteenth century will of course have to be revised many times. But it's busy."
"Speaking of which, has the Church of Nature agreed to your resident residence in Beldiran?"
Dolores asked Miss Nun again.
"Agreed, I have written and submitted the report, and will receive a formal notification soon."
Speaking of this, the nun had a smile on her face:
"It's impossible for the church to disagree."
"That's right, after all you and Jenkins..."
Dolores showed an ambiguous smile, and everyone saw what Sigrid meant to Jenkins. After Jenkins came back that day, except for Dolores who slept in the guest room with the cat in her arms, the other girls went to participate in... group sports, which of course included Sigrid.
The girls accepted her into the family. As for the relationship between her and Jenkins, not to mention that the two are actually distant relatives separated by three generations. Even if they are real cousins, Dolores actually doesn't care. After all, cousins get married in the royal marriage , is nothing new.
Sigrid also guessed what Dolores was thinking of, and blushed suddenly. The nun's face is very thin. Dolores was very angry by the other girls just now, but now she can make fun of others, Her Royal Highness is very proud.
"The Church of Nature asked me to be in charge of connecting with the elf mission, and I will be mainly responsible for this aspect in the future."
Sigrid wanted to change the subject, and Dolores also knew how to let it go, so she didn't mention that matter again.
Among the girls at home, Sigrid is the one who has the closest relationship with the Orthodox Church, so she knows more about the Church. While drinking tea with Dolores, she also mentioned that she heard that Miss Bevanna of the Church of the Sages may also be transferred to Beldylan, and there will be a formal order in a few months.
Miss Bevanna performed outstandingly in this disaster, but after the Calamity Beast was resolved, Nolan's importance decreased significantly, so it was necessary to transfer her to the Holy See to entrust her with important tasks.
"It seems that Bishop Parode is going to Beldyran too."
Here's Julia speaking:
"I heard people talking about this when I sent off His Majesty (referring to Salhi II) back to Loen a few days ago. Bishop Parode intends to step down as the Archbishop of Norland Diocese early, and the Holy See arranged for him to go to Beldiran Any idle job seems to be... "
"I've heard it too, it seems to be the curator of the palace library."
Sigrid added.
"Is everyone I know going to Beldyran? Jenkins will be happy then."
"But there are people who don't go to Beldyran."
The door was pushed open again, the maids bowed towards the door, the three ladies also looked there, and it was Alexia who walked in. She rarely wore light makeup today, but she didn't wear a long dress like everyone else:
"Jenkins' friend, Captain Bincy, is staying in Norland Parish, but is said to have been promoted. And Jenkins' neighbor..."
"Mr. Goodman's family, I remember the name."
Dolores said, and moved to the side so that her teacher could sit down.
When Alexia walked to the sofa, she suddenly sniffed her nose just like Jessica did not long ago, and then looked at Julia's bright red lips, who blushed again.
The short lady smiled and didn't say anything, but sat down, and the maids immediately brought new teacups.
"I thought that a nostalgic person like Jenkins would find a reason to let his neighbors move to Beldyland."
Sigrid said.
"I also asked him, and he said that not everything has to be changed according to his wishes, otherwise the world would be too boring. Besides, he doesn't want to disturb other people's peaceful lives because of his own reasons."
"Mr. Goodman's was there when he moved there; now that he's gone, Mr. Goodman's is still there. For the Goodman family, Jenkins is the one who's in a hurry."
Dolores commented, and the short lady looked at her students with a smile:
"It really sounded like Jenkins' tone."
"That's what Jenkins said, what he said in the morning."
"In the morning?"
Alexia and Sigrid looked at Julia's red lips together. The former resembled a god, while the latter was a gifter who knew the way of nature well. With a very sensitive sense of smell, she could guess what happened in the morning.
"What happened in the morning, Jenkins just made Julia drink some strong tea."
Dolores said dissatisfiedly, and reminded the two not to tease their maid too much.
"Your Highness..."
But it was Dolores' analogy that made Julia more shy.
"Did you see Jenkins?"
Alexia also asked this question:
"Audrey and Miss Briony Ance want him to add a carriage. They want to divination the future during the train journey. It is said that they have new inspiration."
"We're all looking for Jenkins, no one knows where he went..."
Dolores suddenly smirked:
"Maybe with chocolate."
The ladies all laughed tacitly and reservedly. These days, they made fun of Jenkins a lot, making fun of him for thinking about his cat.
Of course, Jenkins blushed and stammered strongly against it, and even though Chocolate didn't want to change back into a cat form and kept pestering him in human form, he never touched that petite and lovely girl.
Although Chocolate turned into a human and a beautiful girl, which surprised everyone, they naturally accepted this fact. After all, the relationship between Jenkins and Chocolate was quite unusual in the past, but now the cat has turned into a human, and this unusual relationship has never become normal, so unexpectedly, the girls are just teasing Jenkins.
Everyone is quite familiar with Chocolate, and accepts her new appearance quite well. Chocolate was also familiar to the ladies of the family, so there was no contradiction.
"The night before yesterday, the night I was with Hathaway and Jessica, Hathaway...suddenly 'meowed', and Jenkins seemed very angry at that time."
Alexia chatted about this as a family joke, Sigrid covered her mouth and chuckled, Julia also rolled her eyes, only Dolores didn't understand:
"why are you mad?"
Now everyone laughed even more happily, making Her Royal Highness feel like being treated like a child.
"Of course it's not angry. Jenkins is using anger to cover up his certain mood."
In the end, it was the maid who explained. Dolores thought for a while before she understood, and she blushed and never asked again.
"However, I never thought that I would marry such a man."
Dolores expressed her feelings:
"A few days ago he asked me if I would like to be the Holy Spirit or an angel."
The ladies of the Jenkins family, as long as Alexia has the possibility of becoming a god, the possibility of immortality. And the other ladies would turn to dust sooner or later if he didn't interfere, so Jenkins asked for advice early on.
Of course, with his ability to control vitality, it is not difficult for the girls to maintain their current state for hundreds of years, but the decay of mortal souls must be considered, so Jenkins will start to prepare now.
"Yes... Master."
Sigrid whispered that Jenkins did not keep his secret, and told the ladies what happened after everyone left on Miss Magic's Daybreak train that day. Therefore, they also know who they are about to marry, and they know that choosing to follow him is almost impossible for mortals to have luck.
Of course, Jenkins also revealed his origin, that is, his identity as a visitor from a foreign land. But this didn't cause any waves. The ladies confirmed that he came to this world before he knew everyone, and they didn't care anymore.
They are in love with the same person from the beginning to the end. The identity of a foreigner is just to add a more magical background to the lover, and has no effect on the relationship.
"It should be said that I am lucky. I can obtain the immortality qualification without paying any price."
Julia said softly.
"You paid a lot for it."
Dolores said angrily, and the maid blinked her eyes, ignoring the princess's little emotions.
"Speaking of which, how to deal with his relationship with that person?"
Dolores pointed to the sky again, and of course everyone knew who she was referring to.
"It's hard to say, but I think Jenkins will make a choice."
Alexia said in a relaxed tone:
"The number of marriages will not increase. He has guaranteed this, so even if they really have an intimate relationship, it is just a lover's relationship."
"Oh, stop talking."
Sigrid covered her face, a nun who was born in the church couldn't stand such a "blasphemous" topic.
"It's just a possibility, maybe, they have nothing to do with each other, they are just close friends."
Alexia added, but judging from Dolores' expression, at least Her Royal Highness didn't believe it at all.
"A few days ago, when Jenkins went out in the middle of the night and had a drink with Mr. Augustus, he also went to the astral world to visit the protoss, who seemed to be called Rakul. That beautiful protoss lady had a good relationship with Jenkins. Not bad, but aren't the two just friends?"
Alexia deliberately asked again, and Dolores curled her lips:
"Protoss is different from the one above, teacher, I will not confuse such concepts."
"Really, where the hell did Jenkins go?"
Sigrid complained again, and tilted her head to look at the photo frame on the decorative fireplace in the carriage. It was a group photo of the family. In the center are Jenkins and Hathaway sitting together, and everyone else is laughing too.
But Jenkins thought it was best to find time to take another photo, not because the chocolate was in the form of a cat at the time, but because everyone was worried about the situation at that time, so the smile was not very happy.
But Sigrid is already very satisfied with this family photo, and a group photo taken during a special period can reflect the stability of a monk.
"Perhaps Jenkins went to see Professor Burns."
Dolores guessed again, then twisted a small snack and handed it to her maid. The maid hesitated for a moment, then took it, carefully held it to her mouth, and covered her mouth with her hand to chew.
"Professor Burns seems to want to stay in Nolan. Jenkins said that he found a better school for the professor in Beldyland, but the professor insisted on staying here."
Sigrid tells what she knows.
"There will always be people who will stay, and there will always be people who will leave, but as long as Jenkins remembers the professor, we will meet again one day."
said the short lady, looking out of the window at the fine weather with her head tilted:
"I'm leaving."
She sighed softly. At this time, Hathaway, Britney, Jessica, Miss J and Miss Windsor also walked in together:
"Still haven't found Jenkins?"
Hathaway held Britney's arm and walked in the front, and the original ladies in the carriage gave up their seats for them, so that the whole family in all kinds of beautiful dresses and long skirts could sit together on the sofa next to the coffee table.
"Haven't found it yet. We were just talking about leaving."
Dolores said, and Her Royal Highness looked out of the window following the teacher's gaze with some melancholy:
"I always feel that if I leave Nolan this time, everything will be different."
"It would have been different, we all had new identities."
The gentle Miss Windsor said with a smile.
"If you leave, you will come back."
Britney sat next to Hathaway.
"No, it should be said that you can come back anytime."
Sigrid corrected.
"Why do you suddenly feel melancholy?"
Jessica asked strangely.
"Because I'm leaving."
Julia spoke again.
"The journey always goes on and no one stays in the same place."
Miss J said.
"I know this! The teacher said that a long journey will have a starting point and an end point. Now is not only the beginning of a new journey, but also the end of the original journey!"
said Dolores, with joy on her face.
"You still say such things?"
Hathaway looked at the short lady sitting opposite, and Alexia also looked at her unceremoniously:
"You don't think I can only do mathematics, do you?"
The girls in the car were waiting for Jenkins, who was standing in front of Norland Station early in the morning. Even though his picture had been spread all over the world, none of the people in a hurry recognized him.
Aristocrats, porters, church personnel, ordinary citizens, people flowed in front of the station, and Jenkins squatted there, looking at the flower girl in front of him, this is a strange thing that changed his life in this world, but now it is extraordinary :
"Won't you go to Beldyran with me?"
He squatted there and looked at the little girl, who had a bright smile on her face. Jenkins briefly dispelled the dense fog and dark clouds around Nolan, and the morning sun was exceptionally bright, warming his back.
"Thank you for your kindness, sir, but I have my goals, too."
She patted her little basket:
"Sir, I'm still going my own way."
The flower girl's way is to collect sins and become a god. She is not willing to accept Jenkins' help for the time being, but plans to continue walking in the material world.
"But remember to visit me in Beldyran."
Jenkins patted her little head, gestured with his fingers in the air, and a golden ribbon was pulled out:
"With this, no one will be able to trouble you."
The little girl happily tied a ribbon on her hair. The color of the ribbon matched her hair color very well:
"Then, sir, I will come to see you in the autumn."
It's late summer, and fall isn't long in the future.
"Okay, be careful on the road."
Jenkins stood up with a smile, and the flower girl smiled sweetly at him again, and then slowly disappeared into the air.
"Sorry for the delay in saying goodbye to her."
Patting the chocolate sticking to his back, Jenkins turned around and said to the middle-aged man who was waiting on the side:
"Mr. Barnard, how does it feel to be alive again?"
He left the station temporarily to say goodbye to Mr. Barnard, but he was delayed by meeting the little flower girl.
Ben didn't intend to bring anyone to meet this gentleman, but he was followed by Chocolate wearing a fish-shaped hairpin.
She was still wearing the black and white gauze dress that matched her hair color, and the pendant that sealed the difference engine was hanging around her neck. The pretty girl stood beside Jenkins with her lips pouted, her arms wrapped around his arms.
Choco thinks it's his fault that he cheated Jenkins, so he is trying his best to make Jenkins "forgive" himself. So these days they are very well-behaved, so well-behaved that Dolores said privately that she has some doubts that Jenkins deliberately used this method to tame disobedient cats.
But chocolate doesn't matter what others say, Jenkins still keeps her by his side, and the cat is very satisfied. As for those annoying human women, just let them go.
"feel good."
The former night watchman of the Church of Evernight, who guided Jenkins to become the gifter, and led Mr. Barnard out of the first treacherous place, stood in the sunshine, in front of Nolan Station.
He died once, but is now resurrected because of Jenkins' last wish.
Wearing a black coat and a pair of boots. The figure is the same as before, but the shape of the face is different. The face with stubble is exposed to the sun, and everything seems to be a lifetime away.
It is Mr. Barnard's own request to resuscitate with another face. Even if Jenkins can explain his "resurrection", Mr. Barnard does not want to deceive with lies, nor does he want people to know that he relies on God's power was revived, and he wanted to make his days more ordinary in the future.
"Then, one last question, won't you follow me to Beldyran?"
Jenkins asked again, willing to help Mr. Barnard get his life back.
"No, I'm going to the country, find my wife and kids... tell them everything, and start over."
The middle-aged smile is very shallow, but it is indeed from the heart:
"That's good too. Completely draw a break from the past and start a new life. Jenkins, I know you don't want to accept my thanks, but thank you very much."
"There is no need to be so polite between us. In fact, I should thank you more. Mr. Barnard, I will never forget you."
Jenkins shook his head:
"Next, it's a new journey for you."
"Aren't you going to start your own new journey?"
Mr. Barnard asked back, and Jenkins laughed:
"Yes, a new journey... If you encounter difficulties, remember to write to me, the address of Cold Spring Palace is fine... or you can just say my name silently."
The two men didn't say anything more, each stretched out their right hands and clenched together. Then they each turned around and walked in their own direction.
Jenkins walked towards the entrance of the station with chocolates, and the petite girl stuck to Jenkins:
"Jenkins, do you forgive me?"
She asked very cautiously, her voice was soft and weak.
"I'll never be mad at you because my chocolate will always be my chocolate."
The girl blushed, but of course she might be pretending, after all, Jenkins knew her temper all too well. Kissing Jenkins on the cheek suddenly on tiptoe, Jenkins stopped and turned around, watching the girl wearing a fish-shaped hairpin bathing in the early morning twilight, bathing in the sun with himself.
The blond-haired young man and the black-haired girl looked at each other, the breeze was warm and the years were quiet. The new journey is about to begin, and there are still people waiting for him to set off together, but Jenkins is willing to stay here for a while, looking at the chocolate at this moment, and is willing to enjoy a short period of peace here.
Whether she's human or cat, Jenkins only loves her own chocolate.
It's all over, but all the same, it's all over again.
He suddenly heard someone calling his name behind him, turned around, and saw Mr. Barnard standing there with a smile across the crowd who were about to see the king's family off, waving a black silk The cloth bowler said goodbye to Jenkins:
"Goodbye, Jenkins! Goodbye, Jenkins!"
He shouted loudly, and the voice rang out on the street full of people, in front of the sunny Nolan Station, and in Nolan where all the stories gathered.
"Goodbye, Jenkins~"
The voice of farewell echoed in the wind. Even if he was reluctant, the new journey belonging to Jenkins was about to start.

Extra Story 1-New Life
The material world, the Kingdom of Fidetictli, Beldyland, Cold Spring Palace.
To be precise, Cold Spring Palace is not a palace, but a palace complex. It is located in the center of Beldiran City, and it has been the residence of successive kings since the establishment of the Fidetictli Kingdom. And in the more distant past of the 18th century, when the ancient Shikali Empire still existed, it was the palace used by the royal family for vacation.
The time is the midpoint between 1866 and 1867 in the eighteenth century, half a year has passed since the name of the savior spread throughout the world.
Today, in this palace that has returned to the Middleton family after half a century, a new Middleton is about to be born.
Of course, this is not the child of Jenkins, but the child of Jenkins' eldest brother, Newman Williams.
Newman's wedding was held a few months ago, and people familiar with the insider knew that they were "married with children". And today is the expected date of delivery. The lucky woman was admitted to the Cold Spring Palace for rest a few weeks ago. After the symptoms appeared today, the obstetricians and gynecologists who had been waiting for a long time had already started to act.
On the east side of the garden of Cold Spring Palace, the building near the artificial rockery was temporarily classified as a delivery place, and the servants had already prepared hot water, quilts and other supplies for delivery.
For safety and hygiene reasons, only doctors and a few servants were allowed to enter the house, while others waited on the first floor of the building on the right side of the Cold Spring Palace estate next door.
The waiting process is often very anxious, even for people who already know the answer.
Originally, only Alexia and Jenkins knew that the child would be a girl, but during a break during a night exercise, Jenkins said it was Hathaway, and Hathaway later said it was Britney, and Bradley Leni told Sigrid again, and Sigrid told Miss J again... In short, in the week before the birth, almost everyone was sure that the girl who was going to be born was going to be a girl named Chrissy. Mary Williams.
Floating white snowflakes fell on the ground together with ash, the disaster is still not over, black clouds cover the sky, this is another bad weather.
In the warm room, the fireplace was burning brightly, and the maids thoughtfully prepared refreshments for His Majesty the King and the future queens.
Chocolate, still wearing a cute fish-shaped hairpin, folded her hands on her chest, stood on a stool, faced the window, and looked at the reflection of herself and the room on the glass. She was obviously imitating Jenkins' actions:
"Why are you worried? With Jenkins here, will Jenkins let the human baby that is about to be born have an accident?"
Chocolate doesn't understand the tension that permeates almost the entire home.
Because it was winter, what she was wearing at the moment was not the black and white gauze dress, but a thicker black and white princess dress. The fluffy skirt is trimmed with lace, which makes the already cute girl even more lovely.
As she spoke, the cat girl grabbed the seal pendant hanging around her neck and licked it. It was unhygienic, of course, and Jenkins had corrected it many times, but the chocolate was guaranteed to be safe.
"It's hard to explain, but after all, it's the next generation of Middleton. Jenkins and we don't plan to breed a son of God for the time being, so the one who will inherit the kingdom in the future must be the child of Newman or John, so it's understandable to be nervous."
Miss Windsor helped the cat answer its questions.
"is that so?"
Chocolate asked suspiciously, then nodded:
"If it's for such a big country, I can understand. Human rights are really a good thing. Didn't Jenkins rely on power to make people accept more than one marriage partner?"
Chocolate is mocking Jenkins' greed, of course Jenkins on the sofa can hear it. But everyone was laughing, and he couldn't fight back against his cat.
"In short, after Chris is born, everyone will go to give blessings, remember to think about the words of blessing."
Jenkins said.
Compared with half a year ago, he has hardly changed at all. Of course, there is nothing worth changing. Beldylan’s life is as leisurely as Nolan’s. He has almost left all government affairs to Jessica, Ms. J and Miss Windsor. It's like working in an antique shop.
The girls haven't changed much either. Everyone has their own business to do, rather than simply being a vase at Cold Spring Palace.
Alexia continued her own research, often pulling Jenkins to study those dizzying math problems until very late. As for whether they studied all night, only they knew.
Hathaway is helping the music church build a local church, and occasionally practices the violin with friends and attends concerts. Jenkins had left the Royal Opera House open for Hathaway to use as she pleased, and the last time she saw Miss Burnright she almost wanted Hathaway to take her place.
Britney devoted herself to helping Jenkins organize the Flower Girls Union. She was very concerned about this matter and enjoyed dealing with the little girls. In half a year, the union of flower girls has spread to major cities across the country, and even appeared in individual cities in Cheslan and Hampawa, all thanks to Goldilocks.
Needless to say, the three Jessicas have almost become the queens of this country, and because they look exactly the same, they will alternately attend some important meetings. Jenkins is very satisfied with the situation, and Queen Isabella is even more satisfied. The old lady is now living an unusually comfortable "retired" life, because she is in a good mood and looks even better.
Sigrid participated in the diplomatic work between the Church of Nature and the elves. Although Jenkins belonged to the Church of the Sages, the elves preferred to establish a relationship with the Church of Nature first. Miss nun is sometimes even busier than Jessica, after all, there is only one of her, but fortunately, there are enough people in the church.
But no matter how busy she is, Sigrid can still rest in Cold Spring Palace every night. Dolores and Julia can't do it. Now Jenkins and Her Royal Highness Princess of the Northland are not married yet, and Dolores is the orthodox heir of Hampavo, so she can't stay in Beldyland for a long time.
Therefore, Jenkins specially opened a space door in the wardrobe of the ancillary wardrobe room belonging to His Majesty's bedroom in Cold Spring Palace to facilitate the transportation of Dolores and Julia. But even so, Dolores often only comes once a few days, but Julia spends the night here almost every night.
As for the content of the overnight stay, only the shy and bold head maid herself can explain clearly.
"Jenkins is obsessed with his wardrobe."
Chocolat commented again, Jenkins looked at his cat from the corner of his eye, and made up his mind to teach the lesson to the cat who has not been very obedient recently.
"Meow?"
The girl in the skirt suddenly let out a cat cry:
"It's born! It's born! Ah~ human cubs are really ugly!"
She saw the scene directly through the wall and let out a cry of surprise. Hathaway, who was standing aside, couldn't take it anymore:
"Cubs are not pretty in themselves."
The red-haired girl reminded, and signaled that everyone can go to meet the new life together.
"But cat kittens are beautiful!"
The fish-shaped hairpin girl raised her amber eyes and looked at Hathaway. Hathaway nodded helplessly. She really couldn't refute.
Extra Story 2-The Eve of the Wedding (Part 1)
People always think that the more you look forward to, the more far away you will feel; and the more you resist, the more you will feel that it will arrive in a blink of an eye.
At least for Jenkins, getting married was something he had been looking forward to for a long time. Not only because the girls promised him to do anything on the night of the wedding, but also because today he can finally marry the girls he loves.
This day was June 4th, 1867 in the 18th century. Jenkins specially entrusted Miss Bronyance to divination many times. Today is the so-called "auspicious day". People in this world don't have the habit of calculating whether the wedding date is auspicious or not, so Miss Broniance was quite puzzled when she did this, but she still helped with divination many times.
Preparations for the wedding began in January of this year after the birth of the new William. For half a year, countless people were busy for this wedding. Jenkins, one of the protagonists of the wedding, was very nervous this morning.
He didn't know why he was nervous. There would be no change in life before and after the wedding. After all, the girls had already moved in. This was just a symbolic ceremony.
"You're nervous."
In the groom's preparation room of Cold Spring Palace before the wedding, Mr. Hood, who was the best man, said affirmatively.
"Yeah, he was definitely nervous and it reminded me of my wedding day."
Mr. Black Cat, who was also the best man, also said that he was sitting in a chair at the table and was checking Jenkins' wedding vows:
"Mr. White Cat is going to get him some wine. It might be better to have a drink."
Although we all know each other's real names now, the friends at the party are still called by code names habitually.
"Drinking probably won't help, I thought I'd better get some fresh air."
Because of this special day, Jenkins once again made a move to disperse the bad air, allowing the bright sunshine and fresh breeze to visit the city where the grand wedding is about to be held. After nearly a year, the disaster has not completely subsided, and black clouds and gray fog are still common weather.
So Mr. Hood went to the window and opened it, and there was a sword planted in a flower pot on the windowsill.
As soon as the window was pushed open, Miss Yindi appeared from the window. She was also dressed up today, and in the courtyard of Cold Spring Palace behind her, the busy servants had already started making final preparations.
Flowers, white seats, red carpets, emblems of the gods, elaborate flower beds, everything highlights the importance of this day. The blue sky is filled with white clouds like cotton candy, no one can stop today's big event:
"Gentlemen, have you packed yet? Please send at least one best man to rehearse the process!"
Miss Yindi reminded loudly that although she is not a bridesmaid, as an important friend of the man and woman, she also participated in the wedding preparations.
"I'll come, I'll come!"
Mr. White Cat, who just walked into the room with a wine bottle, said immediately:
"Damn it, it's too big here, wait for me, I don't want to get lost anymore."
"Someone mentioned getting lost?"
As soon as Mr. White Cat left, old Jack in a neat suit walked in with a small jar. Jenkins has never seen the old gentleman dressed like this, and likewise, he has never seen the old man in a formal suit, so he is looking forward to seeing the old man in a while:
"your present."
Old Jack put the jar of stray butterflies on the table:
"The church has an urgent task. I will leave for a while, and I will give you the gift first."
The wedding gifts should be delivered uniformly when entering the venue, but in view of the danger of [Lost Butterfly], Old Jack still chose to hand it over to Jenkins:
"I saw Oliver just now. His appearance is really ridiculous. Don't laugh for a while."
The smiling old man in a good mood said his goodbyes and left. Mr. Black Cat at the table put the Lost Butterfly next to a pile of messy gifts on the other side. These are "dangerous" gifts that need to be delivered to Jenkins in person. Old Jack is not the first person to give gifts this morning. Lacourt and Mr. Augustus have come early, as well as Jenkins' other friends .
"Where did the unicorn go? It's rehearsal for it to pull a float through the air!"
Outside the window, the gardens of Cold Spring Palace were filled with colorful flags and streamers. In fact, the whole city was like this. Jenkins would not be stingy with gold pounds at this time. I don't know who shouted in the distance angrily, it seems to be Jenkins' elf friend.
"This wedding will be remembered for many years to come."
Mr. Hood laughed and Jenkins was still nervous:
"There is only one wedding in a lifetime, so of course it should be more grand."
He unbuttoned the collar of his dress, trying to relax himself:
"Speaking of which, why haven't I seen Miss Magic today? She said a few weeks in advance that she would surprise me at the wedding."
Mr. Hood didn't know about it, but Mr. Black Cat heard about it:
"She's probably preparing for that surprise. It's okay to tell you. She drove that train out again. It is said that when the queens walk through the red carpet, they will drive the train to sprinkle colorful confetti over Cold Spring Palace. "
It did sound good, a nice surprise.
"Where did Miss Magic get the energy for Dawn?"
Jenkins asked curiously, that train was the product of Miss Magic's flash of inspiration under the inspiration of [Slate]. The biggest flaw is that it consumes a lot of energy.
"That's not so clear."
Mr. Black Cat shrugged. At this moment, Julia led a team of servants to rush over:
"Jenkins, Cheslan's mission has arrived ahead of schedule."
"Never mind, let them wait first."
Jenkins waved.
Today is the wedding, and it is also the day when the Kingdom of Hampavo officially formed an alliance with the Kingdom of Fidiktli. Sarhi II almost tacitly agreed that the two countries were not a merger, because Jenkins promised that Dolores must be queen. As for Cheslan, the attitudes of the two countries are also the same. Jenkins does not intend to restart the war, but wants to unify the three countries in a peaceful manner.
So there is no need to be too enthusiastic at this moment, let them wait for a while.
"Julia, why haven't you changed yet?"
Jenkins looked at the head maid strangely. Now she is the head maid of Dolores, but after today, she will be the head maid of the entire Cold Spring Palace.
Julia will not be involved in the wedding as queen, this is her own insistence. But at the request of Dolores and Jenkins, she will accompany Dolores down the red carpet and accept Jenkins' ring, so she also needs to dress formally.
Ladies' wedding dresses can be quite the hassle.
"His Royal Highness sent me here."
Julia, who was still wearing a maid costume, let a group of maids behind her come in. She pushed Jenkins on the stool and put her hands on his shoulders:
"Your Highness asked me to supervise you to be ready."
"Aren't I ready?"
Jenkins didn't want to be made up anymore, but the young maids had happily surrounded His Majesty the King.
Jenkins hurriedly asked his best men for help, but Mr. Hood and Mr. Black Cat only gave him a look of helplessness.
On the eve of the wedding, it is better for men to listen to the arrangements of the ladies. After all, compared to men, this is the happiest day that truly belongs to women.
Episode 3 - The Eve of the Wedding (Part 2)
Anastasia sat in front of the dressing table and looked at herself in the mirror. She liked her silver hair very much:
"This dressing table is really nice. After Jenkins' wedding is over, let's move this to our room!"
She turned her head and said to Princess Sophia, who was wearing a bridesmaid's dress and clutching her forehead helplessly.
Over the past year, Yinlong and the princess have been living in Cold Spring Palace, traveling and hanging out occasionally. Today Jenkins gets married, and they will appear as bridesmaids.
Although the number of groomsmen is normal, but because there are too many queens, the group of bridesmaids is quite large. Each lady invited her maid of honor, more than Jenkins could count.
Alexia didn't have many friends in the past, only a few could come, and the only one who could be a bridesmaid was Miss Audrey. But one bridesmaid is definitely not enough, so Yinlong and Princess Sophia were invited to help, and Yinlong was of course happy to join in the fun.
"Jenkins was so helpful to our wedding back then, now it's time for me to pay him back."
This was Yinlong's reaction when he received an invitation from a short lady.
The bridesmaids dressed in simpler clothes, with the help of maids, Anastasia and Princess Sophia quickly finished their work. So under Anastasia's "bewitching", the two decided to go to see the brides on the eve of the wedding.
The terrain in the main building of Cold Spring Palace is so intricate that even Mr. White Cat, who is the bestower, would get lost, but for the dragon and princess who have lived here for nearly a year, this place is almost as familiar as home.
According to tradition, the bride and groom cannot meet before the wedding, so the preparation room for the brides is in another part of the palace.
Walking through the garden, the two watched the exotic flowers and plants sent by the Church of Nature bloom, watched the small animals summoned by the elves wandering on the lawn under the blue sky, and watched the uniformed servants walk through.
But no squirrels and rabbits, which some girl hates.
"Not as good as our wedding."
The silver-haired girl whispered into Princess Sophia's ear when she passed the champagne tower being built by the people standing on the shelf.
The brides are not in the same preparation room. Everyone has their own room. After all, the dresses, headbands, belts, panniers, cosmetics, etc. take up too much space.
The first thing Dragon and Princess saw was Jessica. Because of the wedding, Miss J and Miss Windsor will appear inside Jessica instead of together. But the wedding hasn't started yet, so Jessica is sitting in front of the dressing table, accepting the maids' dresses, while Ms. J and Miss Windsor are manipulating their bodies respectively and making comments from the sidelines, which makes Jessica a little Annoyed:
"Since you don't need to dress up, don't talk."
"Today is the wedding day, don't be angry."
Miss J said this on purpose, and waved again when she saw Anastasia and Princess Sophia coming in.
Yinlong looked curiously at this preparation room belonging to the bride, and the maids also assigned their staff to entertain the two:
"Do you need help?"
Princess Sophia asked very intimately, compared to Anastasia, the princess is a truly qualified lady.
"not needed for now."
Miss Windsor said softly, looking at her face through the mirror:
"I didn't expect that I would be able to get married this day."
"I married Jenkins, not you!"
Jessica, who was forced to make up cumbersomely, reminded that although the bride's dress was very beautiful, Jessica was not the kind of girl who liked to troublesome makeup.
"Isn't what's yours ours?"
Miss J said happily, as if teasing her on purpose.
Next, the Dragon and the Princess saw Sigrid. The nun from the Church of Nature sat quietly in front of the dressing table, and besides the maid, there were other nuns from the Church of Nature in the room. This is a very important day, and the church specially sent nuns to help.
Sigrid was an orphan adopted by the church since she was a child, and the church was her home. Miss Bennett, the holy son of Sigrid's Natural Church, who took care of Sigrid since she was a child, attached great importance to the day of her marriage.
"how do you feel?"
Anastasia said plainly that everyone has lived together for nearly a year, and Sigrid also regards Silver Dragon and Princess Sophia as very close friends:
"A little nervous."
She replied shyly, looking at herself in the mirror in a daze.
Sigrid's bridesmaid is her friend in the church, and she was dragged out by Miss Yindi just now to rehearse the process. Seeing that Sigrid was a little nervous, Princess Sophia wanted to stay here and talk to her.
But before he could say a few words, a group of female elves rushed in, and they also came to help Sigrid make up. Because of Sigrid's identity, the elven mission also sent some ladies. Therefore, among a group of ladies who are about to get married, Sigrid's "friends and relatives group" is the largest.
Because the room was crowded with too many people, and the elves were generally reserved about Anastasia's presence, the two quickly bid farewell to Sigrid and met Dolores in the next room.
Julia is not around, it seems that she ran to Jenkins to help. But Dolores was never short of maids. In addition to the maids, even Jenkins' mother, Mary Williams, was in the room.
Seeing Yinlong and Princess Sophia coming in, the latter left the room on the pretext of going to see Jenkins.
"You and Jenkins' mother seem to get along pretty well."
Yinlong praised, and then sat down on another chair next to the dressing table. Dolores folded her hands together and looked at the mirror, her expression was somewhat similar to that of Sigrid just now.
"You're nervous."
Anastasia said amusedly.
"How can you not be nervous?"
Her Royal Highness asked back, and then refused to put on the necklace of gemstones now, it was too heavy.
"Father came here just now and talked a lot. He was not nervous at first, but now he is very nervous."
Laughter came from the side. It was Dolores's eldest sister Yani Stuart and the little princess Agelina Stuart. They also put on dresses. They were Dolores bridesmaids.
"Dolores has been nervous since she got up early in the morning, and it has nothing to do with her father."
The eldest princess of the Northern Kingdom revealed her sister's "secret" quite mercilessly.
"Huh~"
Dolores made such a sound, but did not refute.
"Father actually didn't say anything, he just talked about the relationship between Fidek Tri and Hampavo in the future."
The little princess also said that Dolores glanced at her, and Adelina, who was wearing a fluffy princess dress, immediately pretended to be cute, sitting on a chair by the table, dangling her legs in white stockings and drinking juice. The maid hurriedly reminded her that she had already put on lipstick.
Yani walked behind Dolores and helped Dolores comb her long hair instead of the maid. She looked at herself and her sister who was about to get married in the mirror, her eyes softened:
"If mother is still alive now, how wonderful it would be..."
Dolores also looked at herself in the mirror, speechless for a moment. Anastasia and Princess Sophia quietly left the room when they saw that they were not needed here for the time being.
No one was seen in Britney's room, not even the servants. Later, in the corridor, I ran into Fei Ni, who was excitedly running in from the garden full of ribbons, holding a flower basket, and realized that Britney and Hathaway were preparing together.
"Ah, don't run so fast!"
The little angel Louise, who was flying in the air with another flower basket, shouted behind Fini that both angels and believers of God have important roles today, and they will lead the children to sprinkle flower petals on the red carpet in a while.
Sure enough, I saw that Britney was there at Hathaway's place, because the room was a little crowded because of the preparations for the two brides.
Both Hathaway and Britney were sitting in front of the dressing table. The latter was very serious about cooperating with the maids in dressing up, while the former turned to look at Britney, making it difficult for the maid who was arranging her long red hair. work.
"Good morning!"
Anastasia appeared from the door, bouncing like a little girl, and the dragon was infected by the cheerful atmosphere that filled the palace and the city.
"Good morning."
Britney responded politely, but Hathaway still turned her head to look at Britney.
"What are you thinking about?"
Princess Sophia also walked into the room, looking at the makeup of the two brides.
"It was unthinkable before, to be able to stand at the end of the red carpet with Britney and exchange rings together..."
Hathaway's eyes were blurred:
"You should understand my thoughts."
Hathaway said to the Silver Dragon couple, Princess Sophia showed a reserved smile, no one dared to stop the Silver Dragon Lord when he proposed to her back then.
"In any case, this is the best ending I can think of."
Britney said in a low voice, this is an extremely happy day for her, to be able to stand at the end of the red carpet with her two lovers.
"It's also the greed of that guy Jenkins. Really, although it's nice to marry him, I never thought that there would be so many heroines in my wedding before."
Hathaway complained softly.
"But aren't you excited?"
Britney didn't show mercy to Hathaway:
"I heard you say a few days ago that tonight I will take advantage of the opportunity..."
Regardless of the possibility of scratching the makeup on Britney's face, Hathaway stretched out her hand to cover her mouth in panic. The maids in the room blushed, and the royal maids knew how colorful the "night life" of the handsome young king living here was.
"There are others here."
Hathaway reminded with a red face, and then let go of Britney's mouth, but the blonde girl didn't care:
"Anyway, they are familiar people."
Princess Sophia also blushed and turned her head, but the silver-haired girl was fine. The two of them didn't have anything to do with Jenkins, they just lived here, and occasionally exchanged some... private topics with the hostesses here during afternoon tea.
Among them, Hathaway and Britney talked more, because the four had more common topics on "private topics". Even Silver Dragon sometimes admires Hathaway's boldness and imagination, and Silver Dragon's eagerness to learn makes Princess Sophia a little troubled.
"In short, I wish you a happy marriage."
Anastasia said happily, and Princess Sophia followed suit, and then pulled the former away quickly to prevent the topic from developing in a bad direction.
The last stop is Alexia's room, and the dragon and princess, as Alexia's maid of honor, should be chatting with her beside the short lady.
It was only after opening the door that they found that someone had taken over their jobs:
"Xian..."
Princess Sophia wanted to salute, but was stopped by the elegant lady sitting at the square table:
"No, I'm just an ordinary guest who came to the wedding today."
Ovia said, she was wearing a simple white dress with a white gardenia pinned to her ear.
Besides her, Chocolat was also sitting at the table, carefully counting the number of candies on the table, which she got by "blackmailing" a human figure that Jenkins had met before. Jenkins invited many people he had met to the wedding, and of course no one dared to refuse.
Alexia sat in front of the dressing table like other brides, and greeted her bridesmaids through the mirror. The short lady's wedding dress is a special style, which is said to be her own design.
The long dress is still on the wooden shelf at the side, and the maids are doing the final maintenance. Alexia is only wearing light makeup.
"Your progress here is much slower than others, do you need help?"
Yinlong is eager to try.
"No need, I've calculated the time, it's totally enough. But you're late, just now Miss Yindi came here to find a bridesmaid to rehearse the procedure, and you were not here, so I had to be replaced by someone else."
"who is it?"
Yinlong asked curiously.
"A witch who joins in the fun."
Ovia smiled and said:
"She said that this is also a scene that can be recorded in the mythology, so she came with me, but I will be optimistic about her."
"I'll take a fancy to her too."
Chocolate, who was counting candies, also said, she clapped her hands and raised her head, looking at the costumes of the dragon and the princess:
"Not bad, very beautiful."
When Chocolate spoke, there was a strange feeling of a child pretending to be an adult.
"Why don't you wear makeup?"
Princess Sophia asked for chocolate.
"Chocolate is not going to be a bride."
Alexia said, and the girl with the fish-shaped hairpin nodded immediately:
"Yes!"
She raised her head proudly, only then did Silver Dragon and Princess Sophia notice that today's chocolate is rarely decorated with a bow around its neck, and under this decoration is the pendant that seals the difference engine.
"But Chocolat intends to, in cat form, stand on Jenkins' shoulders for the ceremony for a while. That way, it shows that she's always been with Jenkins and we're outsiders in the family."
Alexia smiled and exposed the cat's plan, Chocolate nodded immediately:
"Yes, that's it."
Because there was nothing to do for the time being, Anastasia and Princess Sophia also sat at the table, sitting with Ovia and Chocolate.
Princess Sophia wouldn't say those things that shouldn't be said, but Yinlong couldn't help being curious. After drinking a cup of tea, he couldn't bear to ask the sage in a low voice:
"What do you think of Jenkins getting married today?"
Alexia looked at the four people at the table through the mirror, with a slight smile in her eyes.
"Look like a cat."
The elegant and intellectual lady said that the appearance she used today was the same as when Jenkins first met the fortune teller girl, but with a more mature temperament.
"What's the meaning?"
Anastasia didn't understand, so Princess Sophia could only repeat Chocolate's words:
"'My relationship with Jenkins does not require human ritual to prove'."
This is His Majesty's wedding. Although it was noisy because of the large number of people, everyone was very happy.
"Everyone will be happy."
This is guaranteed by Jenkins.
Extra Story 4-Writers' Conversation
It was an ordinary summer night after Fidetic Tri's grand wedding. Although the wedding only lasted for one day, the atmosphere of joy spread for several weeks before the disaster struck.
In Cold Spring Palace, after a busy day...
"Are you busy today?"
Queen Hathaway Hessa asked Jenkins who was walking side by side in the corridor with her, and Jenkins heard the chuckling of the maids following behind her.
"Whether I'm busy or not is actually a relative thing. Didn't I return to Nolan today and bring the underground [A4-type arithmetic auxiliary external machine] to the Church of Mechanics?"
"But that seemed to be before breakfast. Apart from that, you just met with Professor Burns who came to Beldylan on business today, and gave a speech at the university. The environmental protection bill you proposed, the The new cabinet, steam power conversion and the first generation of steam pressure drilling oil wells are all handled by Jessica."
Hathaway reminded.
A lot of things happened on the wedding day, but the wedding has no effect on the life of the family. Except for Dolores who can live here for a long time, only the Jessicas will occasionally complain that the union between Fidetic Tri and Hampavo is really too troublesome.
"Actually, I've been very busy recently. The prototype of the hand-cranked generator has been successfully manufactured. Although it has the help of supernatural elements, I think that as the nineteenth era approaches, the electrical age will be realized sooner or later. Yes, I've been working on this lately."
The young king defended himself.
"But how did I hear that Alexia has been doing this for you?"
"Have it?"
"Yes, Alexia and I listened to her when we were chatting in the hospital last Sunday night. Oh yes, Your Majesty, you were on the other side of the bed, 'working' at Booney's, So probably didn't hear our conversation."
The laughter of the maids and ladies behind him became more obvious. His Majesty the King is kind and doesn't care about their whispers.
"Of course, it could also be Julia behind you who accidentally blocked your ears."
Hathaway said sarcastically again, Jenkins blushed and did not continue the topic.
They're not on their way to the bedroom, but Jenkins is talking to a long-lost writer lady. That was the author of "The Legend of the Detective Knight". She arrived in Nolan with Cheslan's visiting group last year. Unfortunately, Jenkins was busy saving the world at that time, so he didn't have time to talk to her alone.
Fortunately, the lady did not return to Cheslan, which was caught in civil strife, but stayed in Beldyland temporarily. So, tonight at the Royal Opera House, after seeing the Silver Jasmine Opera Company, Jenkins hurried back to Cold Spring Palace to meet with the invited writers.
Originally, Anastasia also wanted to come, and she also liked the story of "Detective Knight".
But Princess Sophia invited her a week in advance to go to the ancient tower outside the city of Beldylan to enjoy the moon tonight. After making a careful choice, the silver-haired girl could only bid farewell to Jenkins with regret.
The maids opened the door of the room, and the young lady wearing glasses who was sitting in front of the fireplace and reading a book immediately stood up.
"No need to salute, I've never been used to it."
said Jenkins, grabbing the chocolate that jumped in through the window. Chocolate didn't climb onto his shoulders, but turned into a light girl lying on Jenkins' body, and was put aside by Jenkins.
The young lady looked at this miraculous scene, a little cautious and didn't know what to say.
"Please sit down and don't be nervous."
Jenkins said that Hathaway called the servants to bring fresh refreshments. So the four of them sat together on the chairs in front of the fireplace. Chocolate is free, and Hathaway is accompanying Jenkins to prevent rumors that "the king meets foreign female writers privately at night".
The protagonists of this conversation are only Jenkins and the exotic writer lady.
"I have liked "Detective Knight" since a long time ago."
The conversation started with Jenkins, who expressed his joy, holding the first volume of "The Legend of the Detective Knight" inherited from the original owner.
Although the girls planned to dump the things originally in St. George's Avenue as garbage in a remote room of Cold Spring Palace, they were finally found by Jenkins.
"Your collection of stories about strangers is also amazing, and not only the stories were written, I also saw the decrees issued by you when I lived in Beldyland. Although there are some things that I don't understand very well, you are really a kind-hearted and Ambitious people, generally speaking, these two adjectives will not appear on the same person at the same time."
The young lady praised.
"I'm really sorry. In fact, most of my thoughts come from dreams, or another world. I just express them based on my understanding."
Jenkins tells the truth, but equally distorts the true meaning. His way of speaking made both Hathaway and Chocolate glance at him, and Jenkins was still Jenkins, not changing at all.
"is that so?"
The young Miss Writer's eyes lit up:
"I thought I was the only one! I have always believed that people's artistic and literary creations are inspired by dreams from other worlds. The stories and pictures we create may be real things that happened in other worlds.
For example, the story of Shade Suellen Hamilton (Shade Suellen Hamilton) I wrote, the gentleman who is both a detective and a knight probably has his own true story. It's a pity that I can only describe the wonderful story with my imagination and a few dream fragments, and I can't restore the reality. "
Many artists believe that their works are inspired by other worlds, so this kind of depiction is normal. However, the name of the protagonist in "The Legend of the Detective Knight" read out by the young lady writer made Jenkins think of the few friends he had in his hometown.
Besides Li Gan, Xia De is also his friend. After Li Gan's inexplicable disappearance and his accidental death, maybe Xia De helped organize the funeral of the two.
"Maybe… "
The answer flashed through God's mind, and then he smiled.
The conversation with Ms. Writer lasted for more than an hour, during which both sides were very happy. When saying goodbye, Jenkins politely invited the other party to visit him next time if he had time, and the young female writer also readily agreed.
Saying goodbye to the visiting guests, Jenkins left the room with Hathaway. Chocolate turned back into a cat form at this time, resting comfortably on Jenkins' shoulder.
Hathaway would not be unhappy that Jenkins invited the writer to visit next time. Although Jenkins married a lot of girls, he was quite loyal to his relationship. It has been almost a year since he moved into Cold Spring Palace, not to mention Anastasia and Princess Sophia, who live beside him, he has not even provoked any young maids.
Hathaway knew what the maids were thinking, but fortunately Jenkins really did what he said, which moved her sometimes.
"What are you going to do next?"
Jenkins stretched his waist and asked happily. His life has become more and more comfortable recently, which is his favorite kind of life.
"I prepared a few... beautiful clothes."
Hathaway squinted at him, blushing slightly:
"I think either Britney or Miss J should be at the moment..."
"No, no, that's not what I meant."
Jenkins quickly stopped:
"I mean, do you want to go outside? Just the two of us..."
"Meow?"
"Just the two of us and Chocolate, let's visit Mr. Hood? Or go to see Miss Magic's experiment? Or, go find Anastasia and Princess Sophia outside the city, hope we won't see what we shouldn't see screen."
He laughed.
"Just the two of us? Well, it's the same adventure as before."
Hathaway also said excitedly.
"but… "
Jenkins moved closer and lowered his voice:
"Those clothes...we can try them on when we come back."
The red-haired queen patted Jenkins lightly, then nodded cautiously:
"Yes, my lord."
Episode 5-True Words
Even after becoming king, Jenkins' sonship still requires him to undertake the work given by the church.
It was an ordinary evening in the summer after the wedding, and my father hurriedly delivered a copper pot:
"The church asks you to help deal with it, whether it's destroying or sealing it."
"Aren't you going to deal with it with me?"
Jenkins wants to invite Dad to stay, but Dad doesn't have time for this:
"Old Jack asked me to have a drink together. You have already graduated from school. My apprentice, please be mature. You can solve such trivial matters by yourself. By the way, don't forget that we have an appointment to go fishing together next week."
The old man said, patted him on the shoulder, then turned around and got into the carriage.
So Jenkins could only take the copper pot with the yellow aura back to Cold Spring Palace. It was half an hour before dinner, and the ladies at home had their own things to do, so Jenkins could only deal with this danger with chocolate. numbered item.
He found an unused guest room, and after entering it, he sealed the room with his strength to prevent bad things from escaping. Afterwards, they sat on the red carpet together with the chocolate that had turned into a human form.
The two sat facing each other, looking at the copper pot placed in the middle:
"How do I use this?"
Chocolat asked curiously, and she took a very ladylike sitting posture, which Dolores taught her.
"Dad didn't say anything, but since it's a pot, he should probably open it."
Jenkins guessed, and reached for the lid. Immediately, a puff of blue smoke floated out, and in the smoke, a huge blue spirit body appeared:
"This scene looks familiar... I seem to have seen it in Dolores' study."
Jenkins commented.
The blue giant spirit wearing a hat observed the two people around him, he smiled happily, and extended an invitation to the two:
"I know you want to destroy me, I can see fate, as long as you can each answer my three questions, I can destroy myself! But be careful, I will ask the most embarrassing question, which is to point If you are not prepared for the dark side of your heart, don't come!"
The game of the giant spirit requires at least two people who are familiar with each other to start the game. Jenkins and Chocolate just meet the requirements.
"Get started, get started!"
The little girl wearing a fish-shaped hairpin slapped the floor excitedly and said, not even caring about licking the pendant hanging around her neck.
"Then it's up to you~"
The blue genie pointed at Jenkins, and Jenkins looked at it happily.
"The first question, what do you think of the two ladies living in your home, you have to really think in your heart."
asked the dwarf.
He probably mistook Chocolate for Jenkins' wife, which is why he asked the question. If the two are ordinary couples, this problem is indeed quite fatal.
"I covet them, Anastasia and Princess Sofia are beautiful, elegant and charming, yes I covet them."
Jenkins did not use the [lie] priesthood to lie. Hearing what he said, the giant immediately looked at the chocolate on the other side, but the chocolate didn't respond:
"Is it my turn?"
Chocolat asked, not caring what Jenkins thought of dragons and ancient princesses.
The giant spirit was puzzled for a few seconds before hesitatingly saying:
"Okay lady, it's your turn, let me see what questions to ask..."
He was silent for a while, probably startled by the question he got:
"Three days ago, the black and white princess dress belonging to Dolores Williams was damaged. Who is the murderer?"
He could really see the dark side of people at once. Chocolate was frightened by the question, and looked at Jenkins with some hesitation. Seeing that Jenkins was also looking at her, he lowered his head and said in a low voice:
"It's me. I'm sorry I didn't say it right away, but I didn't mean it. I just wanted to see if it was suitable for me. I didn't expect to accidentally break it."
She apologized to Jenkins, who smiled a bit:
"Snacks are cut in half. It's not your punishment for ruining Dolores's dress, it's your punishment for not telling the truth."
"Meow~"
Chocolate is depressed and has a grudge against the Djinn because of it.
"Then it's your turn again."
The djinn looked at Jenkins again, and Jenkins was curious about the question it wanted to ask.
"What do you think of the maids in this palace?"
He is really good at finding the dark side of people's hearts.
"I can't wait to invite them all to ** one by one."
Jenkins still tells the truth, but it's a thought, not a practice, and he's quite disciplined and proud of it.
The giant spirit looked at Chocolate's expression again, and the latter didn't care at all as if he had heard that the weather forecast for tomorrow was "sunny".
"It's my turn, it's my turn!"
Chocolate raised his hand and said, the giant spirit hesitated even more, because he saw even more unreasonable questions:
"Last Sunday night, who switched identities with Ms. J and participated in the activities at night in her image?"
"Um?"
Jenkins stared at Chocolate, who looked down at the carpet instead of Jenkins:
"it's me."
"Um?"
Jenkins was taken aback by Chocolate's move:
"How many times have you done this?"
"This game requires me to ask questions."
The giant spirit reminded.
"Shut up."
Jenkins glared at him, then looked at Chocolate:
"the third time."
"I'll teach you a lesson later."
He said angrily, then looked up at the giant spirit:
"You, hurry up and ask."
"Okay ok...why should I panic. So my last question for you sir, what do you think of your cat?"
Chocolate looked up this time, and she waited for those big eyes to look at Jenkins, waiting for an answer.
"Family forever."
"The answer is too superficial."
said the djinn, and Chocolate blinked:
"Forever... family, lover, companion."
Jenkins was a little embarrassed, but Chocolate was satisfied.
"Quickly ask me, quickly ask me!"
she said aloud.
"Well then, ma'am, one last question of yours..."
The giant spirit was a little panicked. The ethics and morals of the two people in front of him were not normal at all. He was very worried about his fate:
"What do you think of this man?"
"I'm going to eat him!"
"Um?"
Jenkins and Genie asked questions at the same time.
"Just kidding ~ together forever, Jenkins belongs to chocolate, chocolate belongs to Jenkins, forever and ever, even if the world is destroyed, we must be together!"
With a loud bang, the pot, together with the blue giant spirit, exploded like a steam bomb.
After the loud noise, the door was pushed open, Hathaway, Britney, Alexia, Dolores, Julia, Miss J, Miss Windsor, Jessica, Sigrid, nine Ladies filed in.
They saw Jenkins sitting on the blackened carpet with Chocolate, and their faces were also darkened:
"Haha, what's the matter with you?"
Hathaway smiled and went to pull Jenkins, Alexia and Dolores pulled the chocolate:
"Really, Jenkins, how old are you this year, and you are playing steam bombs at home."
Miss Windsor and Jessica complained dissatisfied.
"It's not a bomb... well, it's a bomb."
He didn't want to tell others about the conversation just now.
"Do you have anything to do with us?"
"Of course it's time for dinner. You even forgot about this, the family eats together."
Britney said, and Julia smiled and patted the hem of Jenkins' dress.
"Okay, let's have dinner together as a family."
Jenkins nodded with a smile. He looked at everyone present, and when he met everyone's eyes, the ladies would blush and nod.
Holding hands by chocolate, they left the room together, leaving only the empty room as if it still echoed the laughter belonging to the whole family.
This is another ordinary day belonging to Jenkins. The day after everything is over, it is a happy and joyful life between the kind and beautiful "princesses" and the foreigner prince who is a god.
Episode 6-Afternoon Tea for the Queens
It was a calm autumn day after the wedding of the new king, Jenkins Williams. In the second month of the Royal Air Protection Act, blue skies could occasionally be seen in the city.
This will be the first step of the five-year plan, and the haze brought about by the difference machine will gradually dissipate.
On an ordinary autumn afternoon, the two queens of Fideticelli and their friends sat around a round table in the garden, drinking afternoon tea under the grape arbor, enjoying a calm and peaceful afternoon.
Hathaway Williams flicked the red hair on her forehead with her right hand, and said half complaining:
"Oh, Britney, my hair is growing again. Do you feel that since sleeping with Jenkins, the hair has grown significantly faster than before, and I think it is his elf blood that is affecting me. "
She became more and more beautiful. Although her long red hair was not so exaggerated that it was as dazzling as a flame, the charm that was completely detached from ordinary people was far beyond the comparison of all the maids around her combined.
Princess Sophia, who was sitting between Britney and Silver Dragon, coughed, put down her teacup with a hand in a white lace glove, and said embarrassedly:
"I am still a mortal, and elves are still active in this world. If I remember correctly, elf blood should not affect my partner."
Princess Sophia is not the princess of the Kingdom of Fidiktli, and certainly not the princess of the distant Kingdom of Hampavo, nor is it the princess of the Kingdom of Cheslan, which has been almost peacefully annexed by the two countries. She and the silver dragon Anastasia lived in an even more distant past, when half-elves were not uncommon.
"Yes, yes, I also have quite a few half-elf friends, and I even know the high priest of that generation, but it is obvious that even the blood of the priest does not affect the partner."
The silver-haired girl helped out, among the four ladies at the table, only she was not wearing a complicated court dress, but this made her look even more extraordinary.
In Anastasia's hand was a copy of today's morning paper, which was reporting the news that a new generation of steam turbine engine had been successfully developed in Nolan City. Facing the outside page, it was written that the Church of the Sages was planning to expand churches across the kingdom. , a matter of debate in Parliament.
"I said it was your illusion."
Blonde Britney Williams said to Hathaway with a smile:
"Isn't it too long since I trimmed my hair? The last time I trimmed it was a month ago when we went to visit Queen Isabella. Why don't I trim it for you in a while."
As she spoke softly, the red-haired girl turned to look at her with a smile on her lips. Even after getting married, she is still as energetic as a girl:
"That's no good, long hair... There are benefits to long hair."
When Brienne heard this sentence, she didn't know what to think of, and her face turned red, which made the silver dragon on the side gasp in amazement:
"I hear you and Jenkins have a great nightlife."
We are all friends, so there is no need to shy away from this topic. Needless to say, afternoon tea is originally an occasion for noble ladies to talk about private topics, which is very traditional, so Hathaway is not embarrassed:
"not bad."
"Oh, Haiwei, you've been going too far recently."
Britney patted her hand lightly, and Princess Sophia asked curiously:
"What did Hathaway do?"
Britney blushed and refused to speak, so Yinlong, who claimed to be well informed, tilted his head and introduced in a low voice. Princess Sophia covered her mouth with a blushing face, and looked at the two girls across from her in disbelief:
"I've always thought Jenkins was a... not-so-interesting guy."
"Oh, he is not as simple as he imagined."
Hathaway folded her hands on her chest:
"What do you think I occasionally see me braiding my hair into complicated two strands?"
"Because Jenkins said that Hathaway promised him to teach him how to ride a horse in the spring, but Hathaway couldn't teach him when he was in Loen. So, you can try to ride a horse after you get married... that's what it means."
Britney said with some embarrassment, Yinlong immediately understood, reached out and touched his very textured silver long hair, the dimples were obvious when he laughed:
"Oh, Sophia, so you often ride dragons too?"
Because of this sentence, Anastasia was unable to say a word to Princess Sophia for the next ten minutes, but no one sympathized with her.
The girls were laughing and savoring afternoon tea and snacks, and suddenly saw a small figure leading a group of maids walking on the central axis of the courtyard in front of Cold Spring Palace in the distance:
"Chocolate! Sigrid!"
Hathaway yelled, and the petite and lovely girl looked over, hesitated for a moment, and brought the maids along with Sigrid.
There is no fixed form of the cat, and it is still wearing the black and white veil dress, but compared with the original no decorations, now there are more lace and bow decorations. Sigrid, like everyone else, is wearing a dress that fits the status of a queen, but compared to Hathaway and Britney, her skirt is a bit simpler, and it is decorated with decorative patterns representing the Church of Nature.
"I thought Jenkins was taking you to the city hall to receive the second batch of marine murloc missions."
said Britney, asking the servants to bring two more stools.
Chocolate, holding the basket, pointed to the ground with an unhappy face, and the shadow spat out two chairs.
The servants helped tidy up the hem of the skirt, and Sigrid sat down with a smile:
"How can he be so hardworking? It's the Jessicas who are meeting. He and Alexia went to see Miss Audrey. It seems that there is something."
"I see, Jenkins' fortune teller teacher is also a stealing cat like you."
This metaphor of chocolate made the girls at the table laugh.
Princess Sophia noticed the basket she was carrying and asked:
"What is this you're holding?"
"We just brought it from our local natural church."
Sigrid said, Chocolat carefully placed the basket on the table, lifted the cloth, and there were actually a group of kittens lying on the soft cushions without even opening their eyes:
"Oh, this, this is you and Jenkins..."
The silver-haired girl covered her mouth in surprise, and was hit by Princess Sophia.
"Jenkins said that although there are no mice or squirrels here, there are still cats. Cold Spring Palace has the habit of keeping court cats."
Now everyone knows why Chocolate is so unhappy now:
"Really, isn't it enough to have me as a court cat? He is more greedy than I thought."
"Don't think Jenkins is so bad. I heard Dolores say that he was preparing your birthday present. Julia was there at the time, and she heard it."
Yinlong who picked up the newspaper again said suddenly.
"Birthday… "
The petite girl put her arms on the table and held her face with both hands, she was in a daze thinking of something.
Britney showed a gentle smile, Sigrid glanced at Hathaway, and the two looked at each other and smiled. Silver Dragon didn't feel much, because the cat was older than her, while Princess Sophia leisurely picked up her teacup again, squinting her eyes to enjoy the material world, the warm autumn sun.
Girls in maid skirts were busy around them. The wind blew through the treetops, but the treetops were still full of green leaves.
The past story and the present story connect everyone. After all the stories are over, the cat still misses that person and those times.
"So… "
Chocolate suddenly came back to his senses, and looked at the girls around the table:
"Who should I become to sneak into the bedroom tonight? Sigrid, lend me your appearance temporarily!"
The former candidate nun, who was drinking tea, suddenly coughed, and the laughter of the girls echoed in the sky above the Yodel Palace.
