After rebirth, one gold coin bought the Elf Princess

Sophia had already helped her analyze the pros and cons, and she really couldn't say such willful words.

Just as Melanie was lost in thought, Granny came over with the skinned crocodile skin.

She threw the bundled crocodile skins on the ground and said with a smile, "I have packed all the crocodile skins, but you guys didn't come over to help me. What are you talking about?"

Melanie knew that Granny had no other intentions towards Roland, so she did not hide it.

After listening to Melanie's introduction, Granny did not say who was more suitable, but slowly asked: "Why don't you ask the master who he likes?"

"what?"

Melanie and Sophia were stunned.

Since when does a political marriage require you to like the marriage partner?

If there is no love, just live your own life. This kind of thing is too common.

But what Granny said made sense. Roland was different from other monarchs. His bottom line for accepting a political marriage was that he liked the woman.

"So which one does he prefer?"

Granny stumped Melanie with her question.

Yeah, who does Roland like?

Seeing that Melanis didn't speak for a long time, Sophia frowned and said softly:

"Based on my observation, he has a good impression of both sisters, but it doesn't seem like the kind of affection between a man and a woman."

"It doesn't matter. We'll develop feelings after sleeping together for a few nights." Granny said disapprovingly.

Marriages in the tribe are all like this. As long as the parties don't dislike each other and their family conditions are similar, they can live happily together.

"Mr. Huron said it was called love that grows with time."

Looking at Granny's eyes full of "wisdom", Melanie was speechless.

Is this how you explain love that grows over time?

Mr. Huron is a man of great wisdom and would certainly not think so. This is entirely Miss Savage’s own interpretation.

Sophia held back her laughter but nodded in agreement with Granny.

"Granny is right. Political marriages are like this. As long as they don't hate each other, they can always cultivate feelings. Are Feng Ling and Miss Sandra to the point of discussing marriage with Roland?"

of course not.

Melanie accepted Granny and Sophia's arguments, but she soon became worried again.

"Roland seems to have similar feelings towards the two sisters. What if he says he likes both?"

"Then marry them all."

Granny looked at Melanie as if she were a fool.

"Since these two sisters and the master like each other and both want to form an alliance, why not marry them together?"

Melanie cast a loving and caring look at Granny.

This is not something you should discuss with barbarians.

She seemed like an amateur who didn't understand politics in front of Roland, but she was an expert in front of Miss Savage.

She explained the logic of the Oro people's thinking in the simplest language.

Melanie didn't expect Granny to understand this, she just wanted Granny to say less.

Sure enough, after hearing the explanation, Granny had a dazed look on her face and it seemed like her thoughts were at a standstill.

Just when Melanie thought Granny would stop talking, she said calmly, "You guys just have too many rules."

"It's not that complicated. Lucy is the master's only wife in name only, and Lily is his wife in name only."

"I remember it was called..."

"Lover," Sophia couldn't help but add.

Melanie's eyes lit up.

Granny is right. Romance is very common in aristocratic circles.

In some countries that practice monogamy, there are even rules for legal lovers in order to allow nobles and kings to enjoy more women legally and reasonably.

If Lily and Roland have a child in the future, it can be nominally considered Lucy's child.

According to the inheritance principles of the Oro people, this child can legally inherit the throne without having to give up the throne to a branch of the family.

The only regret is that Lily will not have a formal status in the short term.

This is not irreparable.

We can just hold the wedding after she completes her term and steps down.

Melanice looked at Granny with a little more approval.

Is she really a genius?

Not quite. Let’s take a look again.

Volume 216: City of Freedom: Chapter I Agree

"what?"

After listening to Melanie, Roland could only express his feelings with an interjection.

Marriage alliances have happened countless times in the past and will happen again in the future.

Although his marriage with Melanie was not a political marriage, they achieved a similar effect after getting the approval of Seran's father-in-law.

He and Janice went from enemies to friends, and finally fell in love with each other. It was a true free love.

But to outsiders, theirs was also a political marriage.

Feng Ling and Sandra even forced the concubines on him through their selection process. Although they were not completely emotionless, in the eyes of others, it was mostly to consolidate the status of the elves.

Allowing Princess Lucy to marry him must have been a result of careful consideration by the Kingdom of Oro.

Not to mention that Miss Lucy herself was very attractive, even if she was ugly, he seemed unable to refuse her.

Roland nodded and said with a smile, "I have no objection. I will follow your arrangements."

Seeing Roland preparing to leave again, Melanie grabbed his sleeve and asked, "Roland, I've never asked you what you've been looking for these days. Do you need our help?"

"I'm looking for a token. I have the detection method given to me by the Oro God Tree. As long as this token appears within a ten-mile range, it can be found."

It would be fine if this matter was not mentioned, but Roland felt a little distressed when it was mentioned.

He still needed 30,000 or 40,000 God-given gold coins to directly return the sixth constellation.

His intuition told him that this constellation was very crucial.

But he really didn't want to take out a loan to start a horoscope business.

The first loan was an interest-free loan, which was free, so of course he was happy about it, but it’s different now.

The upper limit of the God-given gold coins is most likely fixed. After all, this thing was left behind by the first generation Roland through the system, and it is unlikely to increase no matter how you think about it.

If you spend tomorrow's money today, you will have to pay extra interest, which is equivalent to reducing the total amount of gold coins given by God.

Unless it is a life-or-death situation, this loan should never be taken out.

He can only find gold coins by his own ability.

Helping the Oro sacred tree to be promoted to the world tree will bring about a series of chain reactions, and the God-given gold coins can most likely be collected.

After listening to Roland's explanation, Melanie knew she couldn't help and stopped asking questions.

What she needs to do most now is to help Roland settle matters related to the marriage.

First, you have to choose a suitable gift and pay a return visit.

Roland, who was leaving in a hurry, had just run into Granny who was about to enter the palace.

"Master, I haven't seen you for a long time. What are you busy with?"

Although he was anxious to find the World Emblem, Roland still stopped and said with a smile: "I'm looking for something very important."

He just said it casually and left, but Granny quickly followed him and reminded him in a low voice:

"Master, it's always good to have more help when looking for something. Can I go with you?"

"Aren't you going hunting with Sophia and Meilan? Not going anymore?"

"Hehe, we have almost killed all the valuable prey. The remaining targets are too dangerous. Our hunt ends here."

Roland looked at Granny in astonishment, almost thinking he had heard it wrong.

The word danger sounds funny coming from the mouth of a savage.

Looking at Roland's shocked expression, Granny bit her lip and explained, "Master, we are just staying away from civilized society. You don't think we are idiots, do you?"

"Sorry, the stereotype is too deep. It's my fault." Roland knew that his astonished look hurt the loyal barbarian lady, so he apologized quickly.

"Well, take me with you!"

Roland couldn't find any reason to refuse. Just as Granny said, it was always better to have more people when looking for something.

It's good to talk even when you can't find it.

The two left the royal city and headed westward until they arrived at a place three hundred miles away from the royal city. This was the last place where the prosperous world tree existed.

This is recorded in the Book of Eras.

The World Emblem is extremely small and difficult to discern with the naked eye. Compared to the mountain-like branches of the World Tree, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Since no new world tree appeared in the years to come, the emblem was most likely not taken away.

As long as we find the trunk of the World Tree, there is hope of recovering the emblem.

In other words, the world emblem is most likely nearby.

But he had dug several thousand meters underground and still could not find any trace of him.

Could it be that the emblem is really missing?

Seeing a hint of anxiety beneath Roland's calm appearance, Granny asked curiously, "Master, can you tell me what you are looking for?"

Although he didn't have much hope for Granny's brain, Roland didn't refuse.

Since I have no idea anyway, I might as well take this opportunity to tell the story and sort out my thoughts.

He found a big rock to sit on, and Granny sat opposite him, leaning her chin on her hand and listening to his story.

This story took more than half an hour to tell.

Roland linked together the records in the Book of Epoch and other classics, the records in the Oro Royal Library, and the memories of the Oro Sacred Tree.

It was as if there was that last bit of fog that was about to clear, but was always just a little bit away.

After listening to Roland's story, Granny felt a little distressed.

"Alas, I originally thought that the master had not searched far enough, but you not only searched the surface, but even dug five thousand meters underground and searched the nearby seabed, but there was no trace. It must have been taken away by someone."

"You can explore within a range of ten miles. Unless the World Emblem was taken into the air, there should have been traces long ago."

Roland stood up suddenly, looked at the barbarian girl in disbelief, and said loudly: "You're right, Granny!"

"Ah? Master, I am talking nonsense. Even if I am taken to the sky, I will fall to the ground sooner or later. It is impossible to stay in the air forever."

Roland patted Granny's shoulder vigorously and said with a smile: "Of course I know that. Let's analyze the possibility of the world emblem flying into the sky."

"If the World Tree is burned, the thermal currents may rise and take away the World Emblem. But there is no record of the Flourishing World Tree being burned after it withered."

"The world trees are all chosen by the goddess. It doesn't matter if they wither on their own or die in battles. But burning them maliciously would be a slap in the face of the goddess of nature. No one dares to do this." Granny nodded and agreed casually.

The corners of Roland's mouth curled up even higher.

"So there is only one possibility. A bird flew up to the World Tree to look for food and took the World Emblem away."

"Master, how do you know which bird did it? Hundreds of thousands of years have passed, how can there be any trace?"

Granny was confused and even more bewildered.

Roland smiled and said, "It doesn't matter which bird it is. What matters is their range of activity. As long as I can determine the approximate range, I will be able to find the emblem."

"Book of Epochs, check!"
