Chapter 431 Grooming
“Besides, the phoenix fire is green color.” said King Leon.
“Green?!!” said Angus and Jayna at the same time.
“If I am not wrong, you also meet a green phoenix in that dimension. Jade said her name is Green Goose and the sister of Fire Phoenix.” said King Leon.
“Yeah. Since I already merged with Fire Phoenix, I could be said to be her. However, Green Goose is inside the Endless Battlefield dimension and it is practically impossible for her to get here.” said Jayna.
“Are you sure?” asked King Leon.
“Well, it is impossible just by her current power. If Green Goose is here, it means she managed to enter the exit just like us, which is impossible since even five seventh-grade combatants couldn’t defeat it.”
“Although Phoenix is immortal and lives for a long time, they also have major weaknesses. I prefer not to reveal this weakness, but I know Green Goose power is at most as a pseudo seventh-grade combatant.” explained Jayna.
“Let alone that monster dragon. She couldn’t even beat uncle Jade. So, it is impossible for her to come here through the exit. That means she must get help from some powerful space archmage or something to get here.” added Jayna.
“Hmm… Make sense. However, you are wrong about one thing.” said King Leon.
“Hm??” replied Jayna.
“It is impossible to teleport from Endless Battlefield dimension to here or from here to there. No matter how strong that space magician is, it is completely impossible. Otherwise, it may become something like God or possibly stronger.”
“You may already know that an archmage adept at space magic can travel into another or their private dimension. However, there are dimensions like the Endless battlefield that couldn’t be invaded by them no matter how strong they are.”
“I am not sure for the real reason, but it seems to have become something like a fact for those space magicians.” explained King Leon.
“So, we could rule out that Green Goose is traveling here with the help of space magicians or other things. Perhaps, it is another kind of phoenix with a green fire color.” added King Leon.
“No, it is not. Either that person is a fake green phoenix or Green Goose somehow manages to come here. Each phoenix has a different color and there will always be one for each color.”
“Also, my dear Father, please never mention things like a phoenix has the same fire color as the other phoenix in front of the real phoenix. It is like saying a dragon is a big lizard in front of the real dragon.” said Jayna coldly.
“Ahh… Okay. I will keep that in mind.” said King Leon.
It is common knowledge to never mention a dragon as a giant lizard before the real dragon. Not only will the dragon be angry, but they will also do anything to give the most painful death to the said person. That insult is even worse than being hit at their reverse scale.
Therefore, dragon as the giant lizard is a taboo word in front of the real dragon. Now, Jayna uses this example to explain King Leon’s terms which frighten everyone.
“Ehem.. Anyway, did you have anything else about the religious organization we should look out for?” asked Angus to divert the topic.
“No. On the contrary, I think you could take this time to strengthen yourself. Currently, all the religious groups are too busy searching for phoenix and fighting against the rise of Aias’ heretics.”
“Aias?” asked Angus.
“Aias is one of the oldest Evil Gods in Firuman. Its believers are famous for their necromancy and their nasty ritual. Recently, Aias heretics completely obliterated an army of the Temple of Death.”
‘Follow current novels ON N (ovelB in.)’,
“The problem is that the Temple of Death’s army manages to call their God, Lady of Death. However, even with the help of their God, they still lost by a large margin. As a result, those religious groups are alarmed and decide to take Aias believers seriously.” explained King Leon.
“Tch.. What chaos. Well, I guess it is good news for us.” said Angus.
“True. Anyway, just make sure you don’t attract too much attention for the time being.” said King Leon.
“Don’t worry. We like to lay low. Is there anything else we need to know?” asked Angus.
“Well, except there is the death of a seventh-grade vampire king that mysteriously occurred recently. There is nothing worth mentioning.” said King Leon.
“Then, we will excuse ourselves. We need to wake up the little troublemaker before she makes a ruckus about her breakfast time.” said Angus as he stored the clothed spear.
As Angus and Jayna walk towards the door, “Oh yeah, one more thing. You don’t happen to know anything about the death of Madam Malkin, right?” said King Leon.
“Nope, absolutely not.” replied Angus in a fast response.
“Good, then don’t forget to pay for those broken walls and I forbid you to fix them by yourself.” said King Leon.
“Ehh… But..” said Angus.
“But what?!!” cut King Leon with a stern tone.
“Err.. Nothing, we will excuse first.” said Angus as he ran out of the room with Jayna.
After getting out of the room, Angus couldn’t help but give a long sigh.
“This is beyond troublesome. All I want is just to have a peaceful life.” complained Angus.
“*Giggle* Aren’t you glad that everything is going well?” said Jayna playfully.
“Haa… Don’t pretend you don’t know it. Your father clearly hinted to me to become his successor.” said Angus.
“Ohh.. Really?” asked Jayna.
“Jayna, Leon will never tell us so much confidential information without something in return. Not only did he tell us things about fate, the world contract, and seventh-grade combatant, he even told us about the world affair. He technically is trying to groom us into a proper leader.” said Angus.
“Well, I don’t mind marrying a king as long as it is you.” said Jayna playfully while hugging Angus’ hand.
“Who said I want to be a king? It is just nothing but a pain in the ass. Your brother could take that position for all I care. Anyway, we should just focus on becoming stronger for now.” said Angus.
A week passed by without any disturbance. As soon as Angus pays for the broken wall, King Leon immediately hires many dwarves and enchanters to fix the royal palace. At the same time, the capital city has become more crowded since the award ceremony is getting near.
The noble families from all over the Heart Kingdom sent their representatives to the capital city to attend the event. Some of them are still young and seek a reputation for themselves. Those young nobles even create some small social gatherings to gain more connections.
Angus and Jayna were also invited to all of these gatherings. However, they reject all the invitations. Usually, people couldn’t easily decline other noble invitations, especially from high noble like the Marquis rank or above.
Fortunately, Jayna is the royal princess and has permission not to come in any event. As for Angus, he is quite fortunate since his eldest brother, Jason, is also inside the capital city to attend the event as the Victory Family.

With Jason in the capital city, Angus could leave all those social gatherings to him. As the one that personally invites him, he could also send Jason as his representative with some excuse. This way, he could continue his research work and training without disturbing his date with Jayna.
Currently, Angus and Jayna are inside the training area, cuddling each other while looking at the running Anna, who is wearing full metal armor.
“Hmm… Are you nervous?” asked Jayna.
“For what?” asked Angus back.
“For your ceremony.” replied Jayna.
“Hmph.. Silly. Why should I be nervous over something like that?”
“Really?! I hear there will be many young ladies. I even hear you gather quite a few fans.” Jayna said.
“Fans?? Where did you hear such a thing?” asked Angus.
“I have my own source. So, are you nervous?” replied Jayna playfully.
“Why should I?” asked Angus back.
“I don’t know. Maybe they will try to seduce you and you will be interested in them.” said Jayna.
“Pfftt… Yeah, good luck with that. Any girl I am interested in must at least be able to take a punch from me.” said Angus.
“Hee… That’s pretty harsh. I bet only muscle heads and battle maniacs will fulfill that condition. Huft.. It’s so hard to find a love rival.” said Jayna.
“Love rival?” asked Angus.
“Yeah. I hear noble ladies often fight over men for their husbands. Some of them could become rivals and turn into best friends when married in the future.” said Jayna.
“Wait… How come love rivals become best friends after marriage? Also, where in the hell did you hear this stuff?!!” asked Angus.
“It’s a secret.” said Jayna.
Then, Angus looks intently at Jayna.
“Jayna…” called Angus.
“Yeah??” replied Jayna.
“You are not sneaking out to the capital city, right?” asked Angus.
“Ermm.. No, I am not.” replied Jayna while avoiding his stare.
“*Sigh* Fine. Anna, stop running. We are going out today.” said Angus.
“Ehh… Going out?!! Where?? Where??” said Anna excitedly as she instantly appeared in front of them.
‘So, she could run this fast while still wearing armor, huh?! Forget about it. I am too lazy to lecture her now.’ thought Angus.
“We will sneak out and show you a good place.” said Angus.
