Sixth Princess Feiliya?
Looking at the young girl in front of him, dressed in a long gown and smiling beautifully, Leon raised his eyebrow slightly, then turned his head to exchange a glance with the female reporter.
Have you heard of this princess?
Not really sure... but her hair color and eye color are the same as Prince Andre’s, so she should be a direct member of the royal family indeed.
Then let’s catch her! Anyway, it’s just to guarantee it, as long as it’s the royal bloodline, whoever comes is the same!
In less than 0.1 seconds, after reaching an agreement through eye contact, the "angry" Prince Leon’s expression softened, and he nodded slightly with satisfaction:
"That’s more like it... let’s go, I can’t wait to see what your celebration looks like here."
Looking at Leon, whose expression bore slight arrogance and was very different from what she understood, the girl named Feiliya blinked her green eyes, then lifted her slender arm and slightly indicated toward the area being decorated for the celebration, smiling as she introduced:
"This way, Your Highness... actually, the celebration in our Crolock Kingdom isn’t much different from yours, they are all for commemorating some rather important days.
But compared to your country, the celebrations here don’t celebrate the founding day or the birth of some historical celebrities, but instead, they tend to commemorate the appearance of some key technologies."
"What do you mean by key technologies?"
"They are important researches that changed the era and have continued to be passed down till now."
After bringing Leon into the district preparing for the celebration, the lively young girl pointed at the colorful signboard hung at the highest point, with a hint of longing in her eyes, she said:
"For example, this recent celebration is to commemorate the discovery of the Hover Crystal. Without the mining and utilization of this mineral, there wouldn’t be today’s City of Machinery, Crolock."
Hover Crystal, huh...
After hearing Feiliya’s words, Leon slightly furrowed his brow, recalling the robber siblings temporarily left at the residence, hidden in two orchids.
For Crolock Kingdom, Hover Crystal is indeed extremely important. Without such a strange mineral that can greatly reduce weight, it would be impossible to create this miraculous city capable of moving and assembling freely.
But for places like the Floating Crystal Mine, the existence of this thing is an immensely huge disaster, and in Cheshire, the hometown of the robber siblings, as well as other Floating Crystal Mines, who knows how many people have been left destitute because of this thing.
After standing and looking under the colorful signboard for a while, the girl with green eyes spoke eagerly:
"Actually you arrived a bit early; the celebration hasn’t yet started. We are just doing some preliminary preparations, and the real ’Floating Day’ is two days later.
At that time, not only will the bustle be dozens of times what it is now, but we will also temporarily lift the restrictions, allowing several districts above the celebration area to move aside, and permit the machines powered by Hover Crystals to soar freely. If you are interested, I can accompany you then to take another look."
"Then, I’ll trouble you."
Responding perfunctorily, Leon chatted idly with Feiliya, while reaching to adjust his ram’s horn, glancing at the guards trailing the two of them.
The soul strength of these guards is fairly normal, although some are more vigorous, they are still within the realm of ordinary people, mixing with a cleaner is unlikely.
As for the other people on Celebration Street, they all seem normal too, and most of their souls appear to be... somewhat happy?
Looking at the surrounding soul flames, which are higher in terms of "purity" and stability when the flame leaps slightly compared to the Royal Capital, Leon’s brow slightly relaxed.
Compared to most ordinary people who have just emerged from the subsistence line in the Kingdom, Crolock Kingdom undoubtedly has abundant material conditions, and since there’s less need to worry about livelihood issues, the souls here are much "stable," just like the Princess Feiliya beside him, appearing relaxed and simple...
Hmm... but somehow it’s a bit weird...
Staring at Princess Feiliya’s soul flame and noticing its stability and purity, Leon’s brow furrowed once more.
It wasn’t strange at a glance, but upon closer examination, Princess Feiliya’s soul seems somewhat overly "orderly."
The souls of most people are noisy, this is unrelated to one’s good or bad morality, it’s simply that they cannot control their thoughts, and inevitably their mind wanders when not focused.
And emotionally they always seem chaotic, even if they are exhilarated, they inevitably get frustrated due to unforeseen, trivial reasons such as bad weather today, or a leaf of chives on the teeth of someone they like, dampening their previously high spirits slightly.
But Princess Feiliya’s soul gives a feeling of... a very "perfectly rounded" feeling, happiness is just happiness, longings are just longings, joy is just joy, with absolutely no extraneous emotions mixed in.
If one must describe it, others’ souls are like a compass held in hand, although they strictly adhere to the operating rules, they inevitably change direction due to the holder’s subtle arm tremors.
While Princess Feiliya is like an extremely precisely adjusted watch, no matter how much the person wearing the watch sings, dances, or raps, it always ticks second by second, looking very...
A unique precision that belongs to "artificial products!"
Having finally found the words to describe this strange sensation, Leon’s pupils suddenly shrank, looking at her with suspicion.
He remembered Aquarius Director said that the royal family of Crolock Kingdom has been controlled, and upon receiving this information, he naturally assumed that this control was in the "physical" form of house arrest.
But looking at Princess Feiliya’s soul... could it be that the control mentioned by Aquarius Director is not imprisonment or hijacking, but some kind of soul restraint and modification?
The girl with green eyes seemed very perceptive; Leon’s brief moment of losing composure was detected by her.
Raising her head to look at Leon, the lively young girl asked somewhat puzzledly:
"What’s wrong? Did I do something wrong?"
Glancing at her soul filled with pure "amazement" and no other mixed emotions, Leon blinked, then smiled:
"I was just thinking about something, got a bit distracted."
Having noticed that Leon, who hadn’t discerned her true identity since earlier, was looking around a lot, the lively young girl couldn’t help but smile smugly inside, and then blinked her big eyes, politely and full of curiosity, asking:
"Leon, sir, can you tell me what you were thinking about just now?"
Glancing at Feiliya’s soul, with thoughts and emotions interlocked like a smooth gear set, Leon nodded with a smile.
"I was just thinking, a girl as cute as you, if she gets punched, she’d probably cry for a long time, wouldn’t she?"
