Man is infinite, and his ambition is to slay the dragon

Lan Yu Qian Cong: "————!"

Himeragi Setsuna: “————!”

Dongtang Daohua: “————!”

The three girls were stunned by La Folia's super straight words. Edwards, who was watching the show not far away, also showed a rare look of surprise.

As for Sieg, the person involved, after listening to what La Fulia said, he was silent for a while, then stood up and said, "Come to my room, we can talk privately. Teacher, Daohua, please prepare dinner. She and I will come down before dinner."

"Well, let's go."

Edwards nodded and watched Sieg and La Folia go to the second floor.

And watching those two people leave...

"Wait, wait, wait!"

Anxiety immediately emerged on Lan Yu Qian Cong's face: "Sister Ed! Didn't you try to stop her?"

"With Sieg's strength, there's no way that kid can hurt him. What's there to stop?"

(That's not what I mean!)

Let a princess who dared to confess her love as soon as they met be alone in a room with Sieg...丮...Asakimachi couldn't imagine what the two would do next!

"Aiyu-senpai... calm down..."

"Himehira, Asagi is on your left side. I pressed my shoulder."

After correcting Himeragi Yukina who was a little overwhelmed by surprise, Daohua quickly calmed herself down and came to Edelweiss and whispered, "Sister Edelweiss, what Miss La Fulia just said, could it be that..."

"Yeah, that should be right. Sieg probably wants to talk to her about those things as well. We don't have to worry, just let him handle it. After all, he is the Captain of all of us - but you, who have always been patient, are about to be overtaken."

"Well--!"

Dao Hua's cheeks turned red.

————————————————————————

The second floor.

In Zig's room.

"Is this your room?"

After taking a look at the simple layout of the room, La Fulia frowned slightly: "It's different from the boy's room I imagined."

"What do you imagine it to be like?"

"It's full of comic books, and models of super robots—that kind of thing."

"I'm not interested in any of that. Just sit wherever you want."

"Then I'm welcome~~~"

La Fulia sat directly on Zig's bed and swung her legs slightly: "So, what do you want to tell me? Is it a secret that only the two of us can know?"

"I guess so... Stella told you? About us being [aliens]?"

After pulling up a chair and sitting down, Zigg got straight to the point and said what he wanted to say: "Will you say you like me because you know we are aliens?"

"That's true~~~~ It's better to start from the beginning."

La Fulia straightened her sitting posture. "Stella did tell me a lot of things, including your alien identities and the spaceship you sailed in the universe. To be honest, when I first heard about it, I was really shocked. I had been with Stella for more than a year at that time, and I really didn't expect that my best friend who I spent every day with would be an alien."

"Besides being shocked, I am more yearning for it - people who travel among countless stars on spaceships that can sail above the sky... Hehe, just thinking about it makes me feel very romantic. I think there should be no girl who would not be moved by it."

Romantic?

Sieg shrugged. "It was only during the beginning. The universe is actually quite boring. It's hard to tell time without a clock. No matter when you look out the window, you can only see the unchanging universe. There are no entertainment facilities on the Kreinshid. The best way to kill time is to conduct simulated combat training with each other regardless of life or death."

"Only freaks like us can get used to this kind of life. You can still like me for this?"

"Do not."

La Fulia shook her head slightly. "In terms of order, I heard about you first, then about your story, and only at the end did I develop a crush on you - wu... It's really a bit embarrassing to express my true feelings in front of my sweetheart time and time again."

"Then don't say it. I'm not forcing you to tell the truth in front of me all the time. So, is that what you like about me?"

"This is a bit complicated... I want to apologize to you for this, Sieg." La Freya suddenly bowed her head deeply to Sieg, "Objectively speaking, my decision to like you is based on various factors. Maybe it's not pure love. Please forgive me."

"......What's the meaning?"

“This has something to do with my identity…”

La Fulia said this, with helplessness and regret on her goddess-like face: "After all, I am the [Princess]."

82. I like you like that

La Freya Lihawain is the first princess of the Kingdom of Aldikia and the first heir with the clear right to inherit the throne.

As a result, she enjoyed wealth and status that an ordinary person could never enjoy in their entire life.

But everything has a price.

"Children of the royal family generally do not have the right to love freely."

As a member of the royal family, La Freya does not have the right to freely choose her partners. Anyone who wants to pursue her and marry her must be someone who can bring national benefits and influence to Aldikia. It has nothing to do with her own will.

Zieg also knew something about this: "A political marriage?"

"That's right. As a princess of a country, my future path is either to inherit the country and become the queen of my country, or to marry into another country or recruit a son-in-law and use marriage to bring benefits to my country, while the country will be passed on to my younger brother who will be born at an unknown time."

La Fulia spoke calmly.

"To be honest, I have no complaints about this arrangement. After all, I am the princess of the Kingdom of Aldikia. If I am to inherit the throne, I will be happy to become the queen. If I am to have a political marriage, I have no objection either - but unfortunately, the blind dates that my country's Senate found for me are all boring men, and none of them are what I like."

In Europe, La Folia is already old enough to get married. Although generally speaking few people would get married at her age, there is no problem with it legally.

And Sieg raised his eyebrows: "The Senate... sounds like a gathering place for a bunch of old men. It must be full of the stench of old guys."

"That's very well said~~~ Unfortunately, I can't say this in front of them."

La Fulia felt a little regretful: "There are many people in the Senate of Aldikia who are planning to marry me off to princes and nobles at home and abroad. If my father didn't forbid it and I still have some political use, I would definitely be forced into marriage, right?"

"Oh? Your father plans to let you inherit the country?"

"No, he just doted on me too much. He even said before, 'If any unworthy person dares to attack my daughter, I will lead the Knights and the entire army to defeat them. If you are prepared, come on.'"

(Hmm~~~Where have I heard this before?)

If Sieg remembered correctly, it seemed that Stella's father, King Familion, had expressed the same opinion?

Is this some interstellar tradition? The same dumbass father on different planets?

"Thanks to my father's support, I have never had a blind date so far, and I have the right to choose my own husband. And after hearing about you from Stella, I had a feeling." La Fulia looked at Sieg.

"——A heart-thumping feeling."

".....What did she tell you?"

“A lot.”

La Fulia smiled and counted on her fingers. "In order to seek justice for a friend I had only known for a day, I directly defeated a branch of one of the two major ruling organizations on a planet. I remember it was called [Flame Beast Riot], right?"

(It’s about Ikki.)

"And in order to fulfill his promise to his friends, he joined a terrorist organization, but he remained true to his original intention until the end, and saved the world in his own way - fighting against the entire planet on his own, it's really amazing!"

(Alien Wars?)

Sieg sighed slightly and said, "From what others have said, it's not a good thing, although I have never regretted doing so. And then? Are you attracted by these things of mine?"

"To be more precise, it should be from these things that I got to know a little bit about your personality and qualities, and then I was attracted to you."

La Fulia said seriously, "You are willful, willful, proud, a little arrogant, ruthless, and egocentric... On the surface, you are simply a problem child with many shortcomings. You are really not the type that people would like."

"But underneath these appearances, you are actually very loyal and righteous. You take the agreement very seriously and dare to resist anything. You don't care about any status or power in the world and you can always carry out your will to the end."

"Even if others think that you are unscrupulous in order to carry out your will, you have never deviated from your inner thoughts and will. You are just solving problems in your own way and with your own methods, and rewriting the final result of things to what you want."

This was the first time that Zieg had heard such a complete evaluation of himself from someone else, and for a moment he felt a little embarrassed: "...I didn't even know I was that kind of person."

"Haha~~~It seems that I am helping you to know yourself."

La Fulia smiled slightly: "For me, who was born in a royal family, someone like you is someone I will never be able to become. No matter what kind of will I have, it is nothing in front of the will of the country. Therefore, I really yearn for someone like you."

"Especially after learning about what you did, your strength and arrogance, as well as your willfulness and courage to challenge the Empire of Night, all made me like you very much. I remember that Japanese comics and animations often have this kind of plot? One day, a young lady who lives in seclusion meets a boy who seems to have a rough character but is actually gentle at heart, and in the end the two of them fall in love~~~"

“Reality is not a cartoon.”

Zigg smiled and said, "But now I understand what you said - besides the factors you mentioned above, there are also many political factors that make you like me, right?"

"Well, you're very smart. Stella said you were stupid."

"That female Tyrannosaurus...just wait and see how I beat her half to death later." Sieg curled his lips.

La Fulia stood up from the bed, walked to Sieg, leaned down, and let her long white hair fall in front of Sieg: "As a girl, I like people like you, Sieg. Even if this is our first meeting, I have long yearned for and admired people like you."

"As a princess, I also like people like you. If I become the queen, I hope you can become my husband. If I want to marry someone else, I hope to marry a man like you who makes me happy and gives me freedom."

"After all, after throwing away all my outer shells, I am just an ordinary girl who also wants to experience real love."

“…Is that so?”

Pushing aside her smooth hair, Sieg stood up and looked down at her: "Then I will reject your love. La Fulia."

83. I will take the initiative

La Fulia Lihawan.

Now that he was alone with her and listened to her true feelings, Sieg also remembered something about her.

The future Sieg did not have much contact with her, and the first meeting between the future Sieg and her was not now, but at some point in the future. For some reason, Akatsuki Kojou ran to an uninhabited island near Gengami Island, and Sieg was asked by Nangong Nayue to pick him up. He met her only after he rushed to the uninhabited island.

By the way, at that time, Akatsuki Kojou had already dealt with the trouble he had gotten himself into.

And during that time and the limited few contacts thereafter, the future Sieg also had some degree of understanding of her.

"I believe you mean what you say, La Folia."

"But you said it yourself. You were born into a royal family. The living environment you grew up in has made you accustomed to thinking about problems and weighing interests from the perspective of a royal family member, and ultimately making decisions that maximize your interests."

Sieg stared at her. "You like me because you know my character from what I have done, but if it weren't for the fact that I could bring benefits to the Kingdom of Aldikia, you probably wouldn't like me, right?"

"I know you're not such a frivolous woman."

"......Ah~~~That's right."

With a look of regret, La Fulia sat back on the bed. "I don't want to admit it, but I am such a bad woman. If I were to say it myself, your personality accounts for more than 90% of the reason why I like you, and the last 10%, even though it accounts for a small proportion, the royal status it represents is the decisive factor that prompted me to like you."

"It was the first time I met someone I liked, the first time I confessed my love to him, but he dumped me within an hour - my love life is really full of surprises."

"Is it really impossible not to do it like Stella?"

Do it like Stella?

Ziggy raised his eyebrows, "What did she do?"

“She was once a princess of a country, right? Although she was the second princess, she said in her own words that she could be the queen as long as she wanted to. Her sister had no intention of competing with her for the position.” La Freya came to the window and looked at the Genshin Island shrouded in dusk.

“But she gave it all up.”

"I gave up my status, my family, and everything I had, and chose to leave my planet and hometown with you to embark on a completely unknown journey into the universe."

"She is truly amazing. I can't even imagine how determined and courageous she mustered to make this decision."

(Come to think of it...it is true.)

Zieg also remembered.

However, it is not as heroic as La Freya said. As long as it is a planet that the Krinshid has visited once, no matter how far away it is, the Krinshid can reach there in a very short time through jump.

For example, if Stella wanted to go home right now, she could get back to Planet 52 in less than a minute, and the Crainhild could even send her directly to the Kingdom of Famillion.

"If I can do what Stella did, will you be my husband, Sieg?"

"I don't know what will happen in the future, but I don't want to do it now." Zig said, "After all, I have no plans to get married or fall in love. In fact, I find it strange that since the beginning of the new semester, everyone around me has become interested in dating. Do they have nothing to do after eating?"

“Oh my~~~”
