Chapter 606 Aurora Night(1/2)
"That's what I thought originally," Her Highness Princess suddenly changed her tone and looked into the bright eyes of the blond little wizard, "but you changed my view."
Sitting on the only bed in the igloo, Princess Sharon leaned forward slightly, approached Alice, and whispered in her ear:
"If my prediction is correct, did you accidentally break into the Haoxue Kingdom due to some kind of accident?"
The hot breath from Princess Sharon's mouth tickled her ears, and Alice subconsciously hid to the side, tilting her upper body back to keep a distance from Her Royal Highness.
"I didn't break in here on purpose, and I don't know what the kingdom contract is." Alice gave the girl a thumbs up, "Your Highness is so smart!"
"Your compliments have no effect on me." With a snort, Princess Sharon folded her arms and raised her chin slightly, "After all, I used to be a princess, and I have been praised since I was a child."
"Then why don't you want to continue being a princess?"
Alice asked the question she had always wanted to ask.
Since as a princess, you can enjoy the glory and wealth of this world and receive praise and praise from everyone, why did you leave the palace and drift alone on the sea?
After hearing this question, Her Royal Highness the Princess's snowflake-like eyes became cold, and she looked at the blond little wizard in front of her silently and seriously.
Say nothing.
Facing Sharon's cold gaze, Alice's expression remained as usual. She sat up straight again, tilted her head and said in a relaxed tone:
"I'm just asking. If the princess doesn't want to answer, you don't have to answer."
The atmosphere between the two became stagnant, and Her Royal Highness the Princess's gaze became sharper and sharper, as if she wanted to pierce Alice's chest and see through the other's truest thoughts.
However, Alice's expression was calm, her eyes were clear, and she had no fear.
As cute and innocent as a little white rabbit, with cheeks as white as milk that can be broken by a blow, and harmless to humans and animals.
After a stalemate like this for a while, Princess Sharon suddenly sighed, defeated, and waved her hand, "Forget it, maybe I'm paranoid."
"No matter what, you are my savior."
Princess Sharon had a smile on her face again. She stretched out her slender white fingers and pointed at Alice's chest, "Since you chose to save me, you must be responsible for me in the future."
"Why?!"
The golden hair on her head shook from side to side, and Alice looked at the princess in front of her in astonishment, her bright amber eyes widening.
What kind of weird logic is this?
Before Alice could agree, Her Royal Highness the Princess suddenly came over and put her arms around the little wizard's shoulders, with a smile on her face: "From now on, I am yours!"
Alice shook her head like a rattle, "Princess, please don't make such a joke..."
"Huh?" She raised her eyebrows dissatisfied. Her Royal Highness the Princess did not let go of her hand on Alice's shoulder. Instead, she rested her head on Alice's shoulder. "You think I'm joking, but I'm actually serious!"
The girl's tone sounded intimate and gentle. This princess was not an ordinary person... Alice felt deeply helpless in her heart.
She didn't want to take a delicate princess with her.
If you are misunderstood by the king, you will inevitably run into a lot of trouble. If you are entangled in this trouble, when will you find Abu and Zhongfen?
"Why, you think I'm a burden?" Sharon, who seemed to have seen through Alice's thoughts, who was still smiling just now, suddenly narrowed her eyes and asked in a lowered voice.
Alice put her hand on Princess Sharon's outstretched arm, and with her absolute strength advantage, she got rid of the other party's control. Stepping back a distance, she nodded politely and frankly:
"I feel that we are really not suitable to be together, Your Highness Princess. Your status is very special, and I am just an outsider who entered this place by mistake, and I am not worthy of being trusted by the princess."
"If I can't even trust the person who saved me, who can I trust?"
Princess Sharon's smile was a bit mocking and a bit sad,
"My father? Or those so-called ministers who only leave all responsibilities to innocent girls and are as timid and incompetent as mice?"
To be honest, Alice had never expected that a princess of a country would say such a thing. She was slightly startled, not knowing how to comfort her.
Seeing Alice's helpless look, Her Royal Highness the Princess laughed out loud. She covered her mouth while laughing and said: "Okay, okay, I won't tease you. If you don't want to be with me, I won't force you."
You, hahaha!"
Seeing Her Royal Highness with a happy smile, Alice felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
When she mentioned her father and the ministers who served the country, the sadness in the girl's eyes instantly touched her heart.
Perhaps it is difficult for the princess to confide her difficulties to anyone.
Alice thought silently.
"But having said that, since you have saved my life, I should repay you well." Princess Sharon stretched out a finger, stared into the eyes of the blond little wizard, and spoke in a serious tone.
"I saved the princess, it was just a small effort. I don't need any reward." Alice waved her hand quickly, trying to avoid rejection.
If you save someone and then ask for repayment from the other person, what is the difference between that and doing business?
Alice was very resistant to trading human lives.
"You don't want me to repay you, but I will still repay you, otherwise my conscience will not be able to bear it, and my heart will not be peaceful."
The princess had made up her mind and asked.
"Did you accidentally enter the Haoxue Kingdom alone, or did you come here with others?"
"When I woke up, I found myself lying on the snow on the beach."
Alice frowned her beautiful eyebrows and looked at the animal skins in front of the igloo door. She felt slightly depressed and said, "My friend may have strayed into the Haoxue Kingdom by mistake. Maybe she can be found here..."
"Leave this matter to me!" The smile on Her Royal Highness's face deepened, and she reached out and patted Alice on the shoulder, "If your friend is in Haoxue Kingdom, I will definitely help you find him!"
"If you want to find her by yourself, you don't know how long it will take. But I have a shortcut that can save a lot of time..."
Her Royal Highness the Princess looked meaningful, "If you want to find someone on your own in the vast Haoxue Kingdom, what's the difference between that and finding a needle in a haystack? You may not be able to find someone even if you look for several years."
Although Alice didn't want to admit it, what the other party said was indeed true.
Because of her special status, once Alice breaks into the kingdom and goes to a crowded place, she will definitely become a noticeable presence.
Magic is too unique, and sometimes it's not a good thing.
If her appearance is reported by the soldiers patrolling the kingdom, Alice's trespassing on the border will no longer be hidden. So she plans to see if she can re-sign the kingdom's secret contract.
Alice told Sharon her thoughts.
Sharon frowned when she heard this.
"I have told you before that you and your friends are intruders who entered the kingdom's borders but did not sign the contract."
Her Highness the Princess stretched out two slender white fingers,
"Before you two, no one could successfully break through the barrier set by the first king. All those who found the barrier and tried to break through were all dead."
At this point, she paused slightly, looked directly into the bright eyes of the blond little wizard, and continued in a deep voice:
"But you succeeded, and you were not even fatally injured. Your existence threatens the stability of the kingdom, and my father will definitely send someone to arrest you."
Her Royal Highness the Princess sat upright, with no trace of amusement on her face.
"As for the replacement contract? There is no such law in the Haoxue Kingdom. I have never even heard of it."
It seems that the way to re-sign the kingdom contract is not feasible at all.
Now she is in a very difficult situation.
If she stayed in the kingdom, she would definitely cause a lot of trouble and even become an enemy of the people. But she could not leave the Haoxue Kingdom. Even if she became an intruder, she must find the whereabouts of Abu and Zhongfen.
"You don't have to worry too much about this."
Her Royal Highness put away her serious expression and put on a gentle smile,
"As long as you avoid crowded places and wear clothes that block magic fluctuations, you won't be easily discovered by others."
Sharon supported her chin with one hand, frowned and thought for a while, and her eyes fell on the little wizard's beautiful face.
Alice subconsciously reached out and touched her face, and asked in confusion, "Is there something dirty on my face?"
"No."
Her Royal Highness the Princess waved her hand, stretched out her fingers, and stroked Alice's soft cheek, "Your face needs to be covered, otherwise it will be too conspicuous when walking on the road."
Alice's face was suddenly touched, and Alice subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but Her Royal Highness pinched her cheek.
"I'm not a tigress. There are so many people in the world who want to win the favor of this princess, but you always hide here and there...as if I'm a big bug that stinks all over. Am I that annoying?"
The princess was unhappy.
The little blond wizard with an innocent expression on his cheeks pinched blinked and tried to change the subject, "Why do I have to cover my face? Am I very ostentatious?"
"It's very ostentatious and very shining." Her Royal Highness the Princess let go of her hand and nodded. Suddenly something came to her mind and she clapped her hands happily.
"How about wearing a mask? It's a cat-ear mask. The mask covers the upper half of the face, only exposing the mouth and nose. It won't affect eating, and it can also hide your identity."
The princess seemed to be talking about a topic that she was very interested in. Her eyes were sparkling, and she was gearing up as she spoke, looking eager to try.
"I don't have the currency of Haoxue Kingdom."
Alice took out a gold coin from her sleeve, spread her palm and handed it to Her Royal Highness the Princess, "Can the gold coins from the magical world be used in the kingdom?"
"sure."
Her Royal Highness the Princess answered without hesitation, patting her chest and promising,
"Not only gold coins from the magic world, but also gold coins from other worlds can also be used in Haoxue Kingdom. Our kingdom is very open."
To be continued...
