Dragon Poor

172. The Most Shining Candle (3)

It is natural for a girl to grow and become a woman, just as a flower blossoms and blooms. At this moment, however, the shape of Princess Ofelia was not that great.

The round eyes, which were original but not concealed from girly curiosity, became more and more a calm and dark woman, and the lovely nosebleeds and nosebleeds became mature to draw a delicate line. The slim, crooked jawline also changed delicately, so I couldn't think of a chubby princess.

The girl became a woman without Kim Sun-hyuk seeing her for months.

“Ah…. ”

The princess turned her head to the resilience I had never known.

“It's been a while.”

It was completely different from the sounds of the past when birds were so lovable. So it was even more deadly. If that was what made her voice smile in the past, now her voice was as dazzling as a charm just to hear it.

“Are you really a princess? ”

When he inadvertently asked about the surprising change, the princess narrowed her eyes.

“Was there a woman waiting for you besides me? ”

I knew it was a joke, but somehow I felt like I had committed a great sin.

Crazy heart. That's enough.

I insulted the beating heart without hesitation. Even so, I had to resist the spilling castle of the Princess.

The princess's complexion and voice were literally the most deadly thing he had ever experienced.

“That can't be right. ”

As I decided to control my mind, my heart started to calm down gradually.

“That's good. I was wondering if I was alone. ”

But that was also only for a moment. The heart, which had been barely calmed down by the words the princess gave me, began to rush back to the body.

“I've missed you so much. ”

Kim Sun-hyuk had to grip his heart without even knowing it.

In the blink of an eye, the princess had become a nasty myth for heart health.

“You can only see your fiancée, and now you can't see your father. ”

If King Theodore hadn't intervened, his heart would have stopped before he met the dragon. Her charm was lethal.

“That can't be right. Your Majesty."

“Tsk. Hard. ”

Apparently, the king wanted his daughter to show him at least half the softness that his fiancée saw.

“Earl Drahn. You may have a lot to say, but right now I have a story for you and your wife. Would you mind stepping aside for a moment? ”

“I will do as I please. ”

Kim Seon Hyuk resigned without hesitation. It was because I felt like I would be seduced by the princess without knowing if I would stay any longer.

When he returned to his quarters, he exhaled for a long time.

“Whoa.”

He had already heard that Adesden's bloodline had perfectly evolved before and after the adult ceremony, but nevertheless, the princess's change was surprising.

It was even more amazing that a person could change that much in a short time.

Kim Sun-hyuk knew.

The change in the princess was not a blessing. Her transformed beauty was the essence she had in the first place, and was also her future that would come naturally over time.

But she wasn't even allowed to have a perfectly natural time.

For the royal family to lead the country, immature body and spirit were fatal weaknesses. The ancestors of Adesden have overcome such weaknesses with accelerated growth.

Awakening has lifted the immature mind and body to their fullest at once.

[Perhaps their actions against providence weighed heavier.]]

Gehymnis laughed at the folly, saying that such unnatural growth would also be one of the reasons for shortening their names.

However, unlike Geheim's words, Kim Sun-hyuk didn't think the Ades' relatives would have known about such side effects.

He saw that the descendants of Adesden were born rulers, and that they were kings. They would have chosen to give up part of their lives willingly.

“You said it yourself. Sometimes it's more important than your life. ”

Geheim did not refute his rebuttal.

[Your destiny is very bad.]

This time, Kim Sun-hyuk shut up.

Instead of prolonging their lives together, he chose to rule as king, and his fiancée was also bleeding like them.

That said, she was more likely to make the same choice as her own kin.

“The princess will wait where she has always been. ”

According to the maid's prophecy, the princess was always waiting for him on the side of the inner circle, which brought him and Teatime.

The princess closed her eyes to enjoy the sunlight, not knowing if he had arrived.

Her hair, shining in white sunlight, was mysterious as if it had released a golden thread, and her skin that had not been in the sun for a long time looked transparent as if she could see blood. Eyelashes that were placed neatly on the tip of the fine eyelids were really smooth.

The princess who closed her eyes under the sun looked as beautiful as a picture.

“Hmph.”

Occasionally, every time I winked my nose, there was nothing but a murmur that flowed out, like the song of Seyren.

So Kim Sun-hyuk was listening to the song for a long time instead of saying hello to the princess.

If the princess hadn't opened her eyes to the sound of the maid's feet, she would have remained there forever and ever.

“There you are.”

When the princess opened her eyes, she found Kim Sun-hyuk and greeted him.

“I didn't want to interrupt you because you seemed so happy. ”

She gives me an honest answer, and the princess looks straight at him.

“No matter how warm the afternoon sun is, no matter how fresh the scent of grass leaves is, it feels better than reunion with someone who misses them. ”

An unexpected straightforward expression made him speechless for a moment, and the princess cut off her flowery smile as he grumbled.

“You're still you. ”

The princess who had been staring at him for a long time said in a happy voice.

“That is why I will be delighted. ”

The princess glanced around for a moment with her words. It was as transparent as that of King Theodore.

“That's good. The world has changed, and only you remain." ”

The relief of the princess' voice was so deep that he could not imagine why. But I couldn't even ask. Somehow, his voice felt sad, and he just listened to her.

“I was very curious. You must have kept your promise to the Crown. What a change it would have made in the kingdom. I was so curious.”

However, the loneliness in the princess' voice disappeared quickly.

“I heard briefly from the king, but I wanted to hear it from you. ”

She quickly asked him about the situation with a single smile.

“Can you tell me what happened in the meantime? ”

It was a mature appearance, but it was not much different from the look of a child who was begging to hear a tale of the past.

“As soon as I left the Royal Road... ”

Kim Sun-hyuk willingly listened to the request of the Princess and explained in detail what had happened.

“Oh. That's what happened. ”

It seemed like a place with ears that needed to be hidden and told, but the princess who had already heard King Theodore's simple innards made up her own story and confronted him.

Kim Sun-hyuk, excited by the Queen Dowager's response of clapping hands and rejoicing or expressing elasticity, finished the story quickly.

“That's fantastic. ”

When I saw the princess's face looking at me with a gentle smile, I shrunk. I felt like a child who bragged about herself, and somehow the princess seemed to recall.

It seems that the Awakening of the Princess was not just limited to the growth of the body.

“How have you been? ”

“Before the adult ceremony, I was obsessed with meditation to settle my mind and mind. ”

The princess smiled and explained her days. It was nothing special but meditation. But he listened as if it were a great story.

So, Kim Sun-hyuk and Princess Ophelia filled up again with several months of space between them.

“Yes, I heard all the stories from the king. ”

And when all that changed again, the princess picked up the awkward topic that he couldn't bring out first.

“I want to say I'm sorry to you first. ”

The princess was truly sorry for the burden of erasing the long time she had been given.

“Apart from that, there's plenty to be sorry for. Before I was your companion, when I became Queen of Adenberg, maybe you got a really bad companion. ”

It was something I was prepared to do from the beginning. Marrying the next royal successor in a country was no different than marrying an ordinary lover.

“But so I promise you, I will be true to you and faithful to you no more. ”

Kim Sun-hyuk, who was listening to the princess, became a strange face. It was because I felt like I had heard this repertoire somewhere.

“If this country is okay with you, will you accept it? ”

It wasn't because of the mood. I don't think I've heard it before, but I've actually heard it before.

“Will you spend the rest of your life with me? ”

The princess was proposing to him.

Kim Sun-hyuk forgot to say what he was going to say because he was embarrassed or surprised.

But the princess did not give up on whether she was going to let it go, but waited for his reply.

“The future has already been promised to me and the Princess. ”

It was an outrageous answer even if I thought about it myself, but I wasn't ready to take shape at the point where the role of men and women had already changed.

Within a month after Princess Ofelia broke the chipper, the adult ceremony began.

Despite the chaotic conditions of the continent, a number of royal envoys visited the kingdom to celebrate the adult ceremony of the next ruler of Adensburg.

“I, Theodore Tiberius Lo Adesden, am determined to entrust everything to my royal and only granddaughter, Ophelia Laurel lo Adesden and see if she is qualified to lead Adenberg. The throne of Adenberg will return to her unless she makes a grave mistake during her regime. ”

On that occasion, King Theodore announced that he would determine the quality of the princess and whether she was adopted.

As a princess who had served as King Theodore's successor in the kingdom since childhood, the king's words were in fact the official proclamation of the throne.

Even though it was rather sudden, the Athenian golden rule, which appeared before and after the ceremony the princess had shown, made the nobles of the kingdom unable to oppose the king's decision.

Moreover, the majority of the ceremonial ascension of the Kingdom of Adesden has been done at an early age, so there is nothing unusual about it.

There were some who expressed concern from time to time, but I quickly kept my mouth shut about the combination of Drahon and the next queen.

Kim Sun-hyuk, who stood in front of countless nobles and people, removed the white cotton cloth of the princess.

Boldly, the princess was shy with her eyes lowered.

When I saw her for the first time, the image of a mature woman who had nowhere else to go was new.

I never thought I would marry such a child.

“I am ready, so don't hesitate. ”

When he paused, the princess encouraged him if he had misunderstood (?). I had no idea how shaky my voice was.

He grins and grabs the dyed cheek of the princess. Then I smoothly kissed my forehead.

“I hereby pronounce the marriage of Adesden's eldest daughter Ofelia Laurel to Adesden and Linefall Kim Drahn, the propaganda of the Rhinepearl, smooth and true! ”
