Chapter 916: Chapter 904: Just a Little Empire Princess Chapter 916: Chapter 904: Just a Little Empire Princess “Look, it will probably take less than a hundred years for Aeolus to break through to legend. At that time, he will retrieve all the memories sealed by me during his childhood.”

“Then, he will become the second emperor of the Senapus Empire, and as the emperor, it is perfectly legitimate for him to have multiple consorts!”

“By then, just give that Dragon Princess a concubine title; as for the position of the empress, naturally, it will be reserved for the consort Aeolus truly loves.”

“An emperor with multiple consorts! Hehe!” Michaela’s focus was entirely drawn to the other parts of Muria’s words, “Has it been almost 400 years, and you are tired of me? Wanting to add new consorts? Are you planning to test my reaction with your son first?”

As Michaela spoke, the weapons and armor nurtured within a palace trembled slightly, ready to fly into her hands at their owner’s call.

“I’ve said, it’s our son Aeolus, not me. I have no intention of taking additional consorts! In this life, having just you is enough. I won’t get involved with any other women!”

Looking at Michaela’s expression, Muria immediately began to swear oaths, defending and extricating himself; if she were to misunderstand, his life would be over.

“Really?” Hearing Muria’s assurance, the Blazing God Flame swirling behind Michaela’s wings subsided slightly, and at the same time, the shaking of the armors and weapons in a particular palace ceased!

“Of course, I have no second thoughts, just suggesting a new solution to Aeolus!”

Muria explained, “Princess Filisia of Dragons, she is carrying our grandson—or perhaps granddaughter. Even if she has all sorts of flaws, for the child’s sake, we can show a bit of patience and give her a title!”

“Besides, Aeolus is about to become an emperor. As a sovereign, having multiple consorts won’t attract much criticism. Of course, I have no such intentions!”

“Hmm!” Michaela nodded, somewhat agreeing with Muria’s train of thought, then she raised another concern, “After this child is born, will they still have a claim to your position of power?”

“I’ve said, to succeed my position, one must have the blood of the Titan Tribe or the Blazing Sky God Race. This child, upon birth, will be granted the title of Prince! And I will carve out a territory befitting his title as his domain! But the throne, that is impossible for him!”

“Then let’s proceed with this arrangement!” Michaela nodded.

“I’ll inform Aeolus about this matter and ask for his opinion. If he is not willing, I’ll think of another solution!”

…

In the Osroni subcontinent, Aeolus, who had just been thrown onto this land by his father, wandered into a city after being lost in complex emotions for an hour or two. He began to inquire about local demons causing chaos, planning to slay a couple to ease his depressed mood.

But just as Aeolus had pinpointed his target and was about to set off, a gentle breeze blew into his room from the inn he was staying at.

The ready Aeolus suddenly turned, looking at the carefree young man who appeared on the chair in his room, and his face rapidly changed. He really didn’t know how to feel about confronting his father.

“I came to you this time not for anything else, but a follow-up on the last matter. The princess you were involved with—her father came to my homeland to confront me, demanding an explanation!”

“What explanation is he asking for from you? I wasn’t the initiator in that affair; I was forced!” Aeolus responded, his emotions complex. From the standpoint of most men, he certainly didn’t lose out and even gained an advantage.

After all, she is a princess of the Empire, undeniably beautiful, and indeed, her background is impeccable.

“But the problem is that the princess wasn’t willing either; it was an accident that led her to be with you!” Muria felt a headache coming on and rubbed his temples.

In his hundreds of years, he had never encountered such a mess, yet he sends his son out to travel, and this is what happens.

“So what was the result of your negotiation with her father?” Aeolus felt even more troubled. Strictly speaking, the event was a mistake, but both the princess and he had to take responsibility.

“Give her a title! Anyway, in the future, you can legally have multiple consorts!” Muria presented his solution.

“This…” Aeolus opened his mouth, but honestly, he was very reluctant. The princess’s figure and looks were beyond criticism, and he did find pleasure during the event, but the truth was that he really didn’t fancy her.

“You’re going to be a father, and I’m going to be a grandfather! So for the child’s sake, I’ve agreed on your behalf!” Muria said with a heavy heart, the improbability of the situation unmatched.

“What?” Aeolus froze, feeling as if an electric current coursed through his body, causing a slight numbness. The shock of this news was too much for him.

“How is that possible?”

“Although the probability is small, there is indeed such a possibility!” Muria looked at his son, “How many times have you been with her?”

“I can’t remember,” Aeolus answered somewhat awkwardly, “When I remember coming out, it seemed like more than a month had passed, and when I walked, I felt a bit floaty!”

“Control yourself!” Muria pulled at the corner of his mouth and slowly uttered four words. Although he had sealed Aeolus’s bloodline power, it was a seal and not a deprivation; the foundation of his body was still there.

“I was…”

“Enough, no need to say more, I know you were the passive party!” Muria waved his hand, feeling that his son was a bit of an embarrassment.

“Yeah!”

“I also wanted to ask you something. I know you’re not interested in this princess, so I wanted to ask, do you have a romantic interest in someone?”

Muria looked at his son with keen interest, noting every little move he made.

“…” Suddenly asked such a question, Aeolus felt embarrassed and unsure how to respond.

“Seeing your reaction, there must be someone, but why are you being so evasive as a grown man? Just come out with it.”

Aeolus continued to be silent, saying nothing.

“With your attitude, it must be unrequited love. The girl probably doesn’t even know you like her, or maybe you’re not sure whether she likes you or not, so you didn’t answer me just now, right?”

Muria looked at the silent Aeolus and continued analyzing, “Given your life experience, it couldn’t be one of those childhood friends who grew up with you, as none of them can be by your side now. It couldn’t be a dragon from the Dragon Clan Academy either, for all these years, I haven’t seen you get close to any dragon! Hmm, I think I know now!”

“Dad, I have things to do now; I need to go!” Aeolus left the inn in haste, as if he hadn’t heard his father’s analysis at all.

“That leaves only the Titan Tribe! It seems my arrangement worked, the boy must have taken a fancy to a female Titan; I just don’t know which one.” Muria stroked his chin, thinking that he should properly start investigating when he got back.

…

“Have you heard? Big brother is said to marry a woman who’s more than 500 years older than him! They’ve even set the wedding date!”

In the vast domain of the gods, Tiffany found Gladys enjoying a pleasant bath and stealthily told her sister the piece of gossip she had managed to hear.

“Where did you hear this rumor from? Big brother is still traveling in the Erathia world, isn’t he?” Gladys, lying in a pool condensed from divine power, looked up at Tiffany who leapt high only to splash into the pool with a “plop,” causing a massive splash, and asked with some confusion.

“But during his travels, he had an affair with a princess from the Orlando Empire, and it’s said that she’s pregnant. It won’t be long before the three of us can call ourselves aunts!” Tiffany, relaxing in the pool and feeling extremely cozy, answered lazily.

“Really?”

“Why would I lie to you? It’s not like you can steal my money for it.” Tiffany glanced at her scheming sister.

“Is there more news?”

“Yes! I heard that even though the wedding is arranged, that princess might not be able to become big brother’s true wife, only a concubine!”

“Do you know what that princess’s name is?”

“No!”

“Let’s go find out more and investigate our future sister-in-law.”

“Don’t be in such a hurry; I’ve just come up from down below. Let me soak a bit longer.” Tiffany wore a look of utter contentment, and although not conducive to her nature, the divine force had a very strong nourishing effect on all life.

“What do you know? Dad’s about to leave, and soon it’ll be big brother taking over. What his wife is like will greatly affect our future lives. If you don’t worry now, you’ll be the one losing out later!”

“Gladys, you always think too much! What can a mere princess do even if she marries in? What can she do to us?”
