Chapter 158: 158 Intimacy_1



Half-Elf Palace, Crystal Flower Room.

This Crystal Flower Room was specifically commissioned to be built after Queen Isa ascended to the throne. Although it’s not large, it’s completely constructed of natural crystals.

Gentle sunlight cascades through the crystal dome, filling the entire Flower Room. A copper pipe encircles the crystal walls, occasionally discharging warm steam from small openings on the pipe surface, making the Crystal Flower Room as warm as spring.

In such an environment, despite the frigid winds of winter, the Flower Room is filled with vibrant blood roses.

However, Colin’s gaze is firmly fixed on Queen Isa.

Today, the Half-Elf Queen is wearing a snow-white, waist-clinching dress, emphasizing her slender waist and erect shoulders.

Her pale, slender hand is holding a freshly cut blood rose, slowly being inserted into the flower basket.

Then, she picks up the basket to admire it for a while, a pure, charming smile blooming on the corner of her mouth.

This smile is vastly different from the queen’s usual charming, captivating aura. It leaves Colin in a trance.

“Is it beautiful?” Queen Isa suddenly turns her head, smiles brilliantly at Colin.

Only then does Colin snap back to reality, he vigorously nods: “Beautiful!”

It’s unclear whether he is complimenting the flowers, or the beauty.

Queen Isa smiles with a hint of satisfaction, and then places the basket on the small round table in the center of the Flower Room. She elegantly sits down on the rattan chair: “Aren’t you worried about what Queen Midela told me?”

Colin also sits down on a rattan chair opposite Queen Isa. Shaking his head, he smiles: “Why should I be worried? It’s nothing more than an unimpressive ploy.”

“Really, unimpressive?” Queen Isa giggles cunningly, “Sir Viscount, it seems you still don’t understand women, especially pregnant women.”

Only then does Colin put away his frivolity, pondering carefully, he finally agrees: “You make a valid point. So, were you truly affected by what the queen said?”

Instead of answering, Queen Isa counterquestions: “If you knew in advance that I was pregnant, would you still propose that assassination plan?”

“No,” Colin replied definitively.

Queen Isa smiles sweetly, evidently satisfied by the man’s response. However, she suddenly changes the topic, saying: “But I would!”

“Hmm?” Colin raises an eyebrow, gazing perplexedly at Queen Isa.

Queen Isa’s expression is serious, her tone as firm as iron: “I would choose to continue with the assassination plan, even if it means I might lose this child.”

Colin’s expression changes slightly: “Isa, you…”

“If by risking my child’s life, I can awaken the Half-Elf Clan, I wouldn’t hesitate.”

Colin squints, his brilliant gaze locked onto the Half-Elf Queen.

Queen Isa also stares back intently, openly revealing her true self.

After a while, Colin sighs, laughing: “It seems Queen Midela’s scheme is indeed not very smart. She simply does not know what kind of person you are.”

“So, what kind of person am I?”

Just as Colin was about to reply, he noticed something brushing against his leg under the table.

He looked up to see Queen Isa with a smile on her lips, gazing at him enticingly.

Colin couldn’t help the swell of emotion, instinctively stretching out his hand to catch the mischievous foot that was teasing him.

The delicate, soft touch made Colin hold Queen Isa’s enchanting foot in his hand, gently kneading it.

Queen Isa’s fair cheeks bloomed with two red clouds, her moist eyes glancing at Colin with a myriad of emotions.

It seemed like a reproach for his audacity, but also encouragement for his daringness.

Just as Colin was about to flip over the circular table in front of him and explore further into the tempting and mysterious flower path, the announcement of a maid suddenly resounded from outside the crystal flower room:

“Your Majesty, Prince Harrison and Miss Viola are here to see you.”

Colin instantly became deflated.

If it were anyone else, he would have surely asked Queen Isa to dismiss them, but he couldn’t dismiss these two so easily.

Queen Isa, looking at a crestfallen Colin, suddenly covered her mouth and gave a coy laugh, comforting him, “I will prepare Honey Chrysanthemum Tea tonight. Would Viscount Sir like to have a taste?”

Colin naturally wouldn’t refuse, “Okay! I must taste the tea personally brewed by your majesty, I’m curious about how it will taste.”

Queen Isa snickered, retracting her slender foot from Colin’s grasp, and loudly instructed the maid outside, “Please let them in.”

Soon, Prince Harrison and Viola came in.

Viola was wearing a slightly trailing white dress today, along with a white brimmed hat, which made her look dignified and elegant, like a blooming magnolia flower.

As soon as the girl entered the room, she gave Colin an enchanting smile, and if there were not others in the flower room, she would probably have thrown herself into Colin’s arms straightaway.

After exchanging pleasantries, Viola couldn’t help but praise when she saw the exceptionally beautiful blood roses, “Your Majesty, the blood roses you cultivate are getting more and more beautiful.”

Queen Isa gave a gentle smile, “Miss Viola, you flatter me. If you’d like to learn, I’d be happy to teach you.”

Viola was tempted but also hesitant.

It seemed that Queen Isa saw through Viola’s turmoil and reassured her, “Don’t worry, all these flowers are cultivated with animal blood.”

Upon learning that they didn’t require human blood, much less human skulls or other terrifying things, Viola was finally relieved and smiled, “Okay, then I will trouble you!”

Prince Harrison, of course, had no interest in flower cultivation techniques, so he moved over to Colin and asked admiringly,

“Viscount Angler, can you share with me how you managed to defeat the large East Border Army with just 8000 Dark Cavalry?”

Colin lowered his head, looking at this major prince of the Glorious Empire, while a sense of annoyance rose in his heart.

After all, Queen Midela had just tried to drive a wedge between him and Queen Isa, naturally Colin had a biased view of Prince Harrison as a result.

He had already considered the Half-Elf Kingdom to be his own, so how could he allow anyone else to interfere?

Not even the Royal Family of the Empire.

Of course, he wouldn’t let this dislike show. He still wore a kind smile on his face and said, “Your Highness, the main credit for defeating the East Border Army goes to the Half-Elf Army, not solely the Dark Cavalry.”

“That’s still really impressive! Could you teach me how to command a cavalry in battle?”

The pure and innocent smile on Prince Harrison’s face seemed somewhat fake in Colin’s eyes.

Colin’s eyes flickered. He suddenly thought of a great way to bother the Lorenzo family.

“Commanding a cavalry is basic. As a prince of the empire, you should learn something more powerful.”

Prince Harrison’s eyes lit up, and his interest was instantly piqued, “What kind of powerful things?”

“You’ll know when you follow me.”

Having said that, Colin bid farewell to Queen Isa and Viola with Prince Harrison, and then they left the crystal flower room.
