Chapter 59: Marry him, Princess.

"I wanted to speak with the dungeon race and have mutual respect toward each other... Now that they are gone, I will return to the capital," Princess Julia said.

She dropped all her work in the dungeon guild, then casually strutted out of its building. At the same time, many shocked eyes fell onto her shapely curves.

In a flash, her official attire shifted into long fur robes.

As those clothes dropped onto the ground, all dungeon raiders felt their eyes stretching to impossible lengths.

That was a royal woman who could enter and leave the dungeon as she pleased. That wasn't just due to her status, but strength to overcome many trials.

To say nothing of strength, Julia's looks naturally topped many women from the dungeon parties or royal families around the Ungrail City.

No one blinked until Julia left the guild.

Following her was the silent man wrapped in tight clothes that hid most of his skin. Half of his face was exposed, however. 

In his eyes, curiosity and shock rippled.

"Princess... You just accept the dungeon's disappearance like that?" He asked in his cold voice, lowering the temperature around them.

Indeed, thanks to Raj, Julia's royal robes were more than just attire to showcase her status. 

She felt lukewarm and spoke in a bright tone, "Do you want to face the Overlord, then?"

Her beautiful eyes looked behind, and Julia's smile widened, "My decision to give Minato's Cloud Status is bull's eye, isn't it? I bet Shama's people didn't even see him once in the dungeon while he conquered it."

Raj sucked out a breath, turning it into cold fuel, "We just lost a dungeon. Our economy will fall in a few years if we don't find alternatives... I still think it would be better to propose a marriage for Minato, Princess. If you've already contacted him, isn't it more plausible for you to become one of his wives? Our kingdom's future would take over the whole world."

Raj was too talkative as a person whose lips were the coldest out of all Majestic Ice Kingdom's people. He was a man of a few words, but anyone would rattle off their thoughts in their current situation.

The Overlord was in their world.

Should Princess Julia marry him, Minato would help her family take over half, if not most of the world. He would bring so many benefits to their family and people that Raj's body shuddered with excitement.

Perhaps, he would finally progress with his strength too! He would serve the new master and go to higher worlds!

Minato was a man who had just roamed around the world, so he hadn't settled in one family yet. He didn't bring any conquest to the world and probably resolved to just focus on the dungeons!

"It's because he wants to get stronger. He will grow up stronger with many people under his order, but conquering dungeons won't give him the real feeling of royalty. Before the dungeon races settle in his world and create their own community, the Princess should invite him to the kingdom, marry him, and show what it means to be royal," Raj concluded with unconcealable resolution.

Julia saw it all, but her reaction was lackluster in Raj's eyes.

"I think it is his first world... Minato wanted an adventure, so who am I to take it away from him?" Julia chuckled.

It would be great if Minato wanted her as she would indeed teach him about the kingdom and its rules.

At some point, Minato's world would turn into a big community, and he would need to introduce more rules than he did to elves.

He would need a firm hand, representatives, and many other things to check.

Julia would be able to provide examples based on her kingdom.

"Exactly... That's why the princess should confess. Affection and love can wait. Royalties and their women should think of the kingdom's future first," Raj said sharply.

His words didn't ring well in Julia's ears, but she let him go, knowing that Raj faced a wall in his magic circles and physique for years now.

She spun and faced him with her whole royal aura, "He has two gorgeous women. I believe the elves are also naturally endowed with beauty, so you can add a thousand more beauties under him.

If he wants to adventure, what will my confession feel like? Of course, it will feel like me trying to keep him in my kingdom. What I did with the Cloud Status was the best I could do, actually." Julia replied with her eyes shining in a bluish hue.

A coldness Raj felt from the royalties swept through him, and his whole body froze. He was on Julia's palm right now, and should she want to kill him, just clenching that palm would be enough.

Her eyes rose, and she added, "There's nothing we can offer. I will do everything in my power to make Minato feel welcome in our lands, however. If things work out, and he decides to ally with us for real, then so be it. I will be the one to marry him.

If nothing happens, then in the future, I will tell my grandchildren that I was friends with the Overlord. I will not let anyone break that relationship. Do you understand?" Julia threatened Raj with her sharp tone.

She turned heels and continued her way toward her home.

As Raj's freedom returned, he didn't move an inch and stared at Julia's back with mixed emotions.

Julia sighed, "If you want to follow him, go ahead. But not even a day will pass before they find you. That's when you will have to kowtow before him and state your honest intentions. Understood?"

Raj nodded, "Understood."

A familiar carriage soon appeared next to Julia.

She stared at Raj's disappearing back, then shook her head a few times. Once she settled in her carriage, Julia closed her eyes. She remembered her younger self, "I used to hate political marriages... Isn't it the same, right now? If so, why is there no distaste in my heart? Rather, I have a bad feeling... What is that bad feeling?"

Julia's heart forebode something she couldn't understand.

Perhaps, it was a woman's intuition!
