Chapter 78: A Smile That All Men Knew About

How could William win the favor of a princess within a short time?

It was very obvious.

It was a difficult question.

But to the handsome William…

“Er, it’s equally hard. She has a unicorn that could spoil my plan.” William pondered over it and came up with a plan. He walked briskly with confidence.

The scenery of Blue Moon Town was picturesque. The blue lake was rippling with charm while the buildings looked splendid and magnificent. The town was on a higher level than the City of Dawn.

It could not be helped.

The deep interior of the Blackleaf forest where the Elves resided was not constructed as a city. It had been developed as a small town without any walls instead. Hence, it looked more appealing.

The Elfin kids were not burdened with nine years of mandatory education. They had their freedom, and could play until the age of 13. They were supposed to unleash their inner nature and give shape to it, as the Elves had a very long lifespan.

After their age reached 13 years, their parents would let their kids make their choices. It did not matter what they were. As long as their kids loved what they were doing, the parents would fully support them.

Would the kids choose to be a professional?

Erm…

The Elves were not like Humans. Their talents and potential were able to let them become professional even if they didn’t try hard. Learning magic and mastering battle energy were too easy for them.

It was unlike the Human nations where college for education in mastering battle energy and learning magic skills were constructed.

The Elfin lifespan was a few thousand years. They had all the time to become revered scholars, warriors, artists and poets.

“Oh, it’s you. It has been a long time, uncle.” A little charming girl who had been playing with the lake water walked over, as she spotted William. Her pointed Elfin ears were red as though she were blushing.

“Hehe, it’s you…” William tried to restrain his smile. He was fated to encounter this little sharp-tongued girl. He had also met her the previous time.

“I’m called Aliya Seel. What’s your name, Uncle?” The cute little girl was afraid of strangers, but she remembered her mother’s words, ‘Be Brave’.

She scrutinized the handsome uncle and decided to show a friendly nature. He was too handsome to be a bad person.

She had also seen him before. They were strangers at that time, but now they had become familiar with each other.

“Aliya Seel?” William was shocked. Had his luck stats changed?

He activated his insight and…

He had struck the jackpot.

This girl who made him trip was not some ordinary girl. He must be blessed with good luck for such an encounter to happen.

“Aliya Seel, the future legendary Dawn Archer, also called the Child of Dawn…” William began to recall the information on her. In versions 1.0 and 2.0, this little girl was not that famous.

But it was only in version 3.0 that her true colors were revealed.

She gained more and more fame in the subsequent versions until she became a real legend.

“Uncle?” The little girl backed up with wariness. She found the handsome Uncle smiling sinisterly.

William’s train of thoughts was broken. He coughed in embarrassment and said, “I’m called William Blackleaf. It’s our first formal meeting. Greetings.”

At the same time, he extended out his claws…

The little girl backed up in fear until she spotted it. William’s right hand had opened up to reveal a candy wrapped in oil paper.

Aliya licked her lips and sniffed. Her eyes were wide open, and she asked in disbelief, “This… Is this candy for me? Is that a Human’s candy?”

“Yes, it’s for you.” William donned a cordial smile. He was trying to look as earnest as he could.

It was impossible to kidnap her, but he could still win her favor!

“Hmm.” Aliya clasped her hands together and hesitated for a long time before finally caving in. She extended her hand to take the candy. Then she looked wittily at William and said, “Are you a prince? Are you here to woo Princess Annie?”

“Er, what’s this about?” William shook his head awkwardly. This little girl knew quite a bit of information.

“You’ve got a love rival. Yesterday, another prince had suddenly arrived.” Aliya laughed and ran to the lake. She dived into the water like a koi fish.

After some time, Aliya popped out of the water and brushed back her hair while the ripples emanated.

Her cheeks were puffy. It couldn’t be determined when she had popped the candy into her mouth. She waved at William. “Blackleaf… Surname of a royal family. Hmm, brother William, aren’t you going to make haste and defeat your love rival?”

William looked in astonishment at the little girl who had dived into the lake like a fish. She was swimming around the lake effortlessly. He recalled that Aliyal was also only playing with water by the lakeside the previous time. But now she was like an aquatic Elf.

He heartily smiled and nodded at Aliya before turning to leave.

“Courtship? Love rival?” William muttered to himself, “I’m just trying to get into her good books and obtain a shipbuilding blueprint. It’s actually Momo… cough.”

“Annie, why won’t you meet me? I’m very serious about this. My heart is like the moon up in the sky. Every night, it will appear above your head…

My heart is like the sun. Every morning, it will dazzle you with sunlight.

My heart…”

“Shut up!” A delicate holler interrupted the incessant terms of endearment.

It was very obvious,

It was summertime and the season for mating. A young male Elf was trying to play the mating game.

Many Moonlight Elves lived on the tall moon tree. They looked down in curiosity at this Blackleaf Elfin prince as he continued to antagonize their princess non-stop.

Standing beside the moon tree, many Blackleaf Elves were watching the show.

It was a courtship between a prince and princess, it was definitely worth watching.

No matter how many times such an incident had occurred, the Elves would not get bored of watching. The Elves who had a long lifespan loved to watch these kinds of interesting dramas.

This Blackleaf prince was called Taylor Blackleaf. He was the youngest son of the Elfin King, reaching just 30 years of age.

With his royal status, he was the most compatible choice for Annie, and he was also the one most favored by the Elfin royal family…

The son of a princess was called a prince and the son of a king was also called a prince.

It was not a big deal.

Besides the Elfin King, all the princesses and princes would be on the same level if they were not blood-related. They would call each other by their names instead of honoring the code of seniority.

This was the reason why Elves found it hard to reproduce.

Taylor was feeling indignant as he was rejected had been shouted at. Fortunately, he believed that with time, he could win over Annie with his handsome appearance and many other good qualities.

But just as he was about to shout in reply.

An uninvited guest walked past him and proceeded to the moon tree.

Nobody knew what this fellow said to the Elfin guard.

But he was immediately allowed to enter…

Meanwhile,

William turned his head and smiled at Taylor…

Oh!

It was a smile that all men knew about.
