499 A Rare Kindred Spiri (1/2)

The Fareins kingdom was the most powerful country in the world, and if a comparison had to be made, it would be the difference between a beautiful country and a small African country. It was already a great honor for them to send a princess to your wedding.

In the end, due to some sarcastic comments, Andonara almost made the princess cry.

If the old king didnt send the queen to solitary confinement, who else would he send?

It was probably due to this incident that the old king felt the need to wear down Andonaras temperament.

However, Andonara was naturally insecure, and being so slowly worn down by the old king, she grew cold toward her husband.

In the end, Roland intervened and easily pulled her away.

In any case, the fact that Andonara had beaten up the First Princess of Fareins back then was a truly shocking act.

Sharon looked at Andonara with a little admiration. At first, the First Princess had a problem with you, and after she returned, she would talk about you from time to time, but she still believed that a woman should be strong and self-reliant. It wasnt until later on when she got married that she often quarreled with her husband because of her overly dominant personality, and in the end, the two of them were almost like fire and water. It was only then that she occasionally told me privately that she thought that being a little weaker like you might be the way to get along as a couple.

Hearing this, Andonara shook her head. Im no good either. My life with the old king wasnt happy. But fortunately, I met Roland. After saying that, Andonara looked at Roland beside her with affection.

Sharon sized up Roland for a while longer, then she continued to say to Andonara, Since youre here in Fareins, are you interested in meeting the First Princess? Im sure shell be happy to see you.

Andonara froze for a moment. I almost made her cry; itd be a wonder if she doesnt hate

me.

The First Princess is not the kind of person who seeks revenge for the smallest grievance. Sharon smiled. If she saw you, she would be happy. After all, right now the First Princess needs a friend who can talk to her as an equal without making her feel in danger and wouldnt be treated by her as an enemy. Andonara shook her head. She had been in the royal family for a few years, and she knew too well how small-minded the so-called royal family of Hollevin was. Not to mention getting beaten up, even if you accidentally bumped into them, if you gave them a chance, they would retaliate.

The members of the Fareins royal family were probably the same.

Sharon didnt mind. She had guessed that Andonara would refuse.

For example, the open rivalry between several grand dukes, a certain nobles youngest son not being his real son, and other such upper-class gossip.

Essentially, the life of a noble was no different from those of the countryside.

Farmers and their wives were at the edge of the fields, holding hoes and forks, talking about household affairs and the effects the phases of the moon had on their crops.

Nobles sat in lavish houses, holding the edges of ornate cups with their pinky out, talking about killing and f**king, and deciding where their interests lie in conversation.

Apart from identity and status, at the core, the two were of exactly the same nature.

That wasnt the information Roland wanted to hear. He was more interested in knowing how much magic materials were available in the Association of Mages in Fareins, which ones were cheaper, and which ones were more expensive than in Hollevin.

And what the Association of Mages policy for educating people was.

He could learn from that and see if he could use it in his own magic academy.

However, Sharon didnt talk about those things. She just focused on talking about noble gossip with Andonara.

Andonara listened with rapt attention.

Sigh.

Roland couldnt help but sigh inwardly. Andonara was good in all aspects, but it was just this part of her personality that wasnt any different from an ordinary noblewomans.

Loving gossip.

Not at all like a powerful female Warrior who had reached the Legendary level.

Roland tapped the tabletop twice with his fingers, making a faint noise to interrupt their conversation, and then said, Andonara, you and Lady Sharon can talk for a while, Ill go walk around and see what else is here.

Andonara nodded. She knew her mans personality; he wasnt interested in these things.

When Roland left, Sharon said with some uneasiness, Did I snub Mr. Roland, he doesnt seem too happy?

Its okay, he has a good personality and wont get angry about it. Andonara smiled. The happiest thing thats happened to me until now is having met him.

Looking at Andonaras happy expression, Sharon was somehow envious because she could tell that Andonara wasnt faking it. She was reminded of her own man, a matrilocal husband who knew nothing and could do nothing, but who liked to do things to his maids.

Now that there were three illegitimate children, she was contemplating whether or not to drown them.

After Roland left the shop, he walked around the neighborhood casually.

Other than shops, some open spaces were occupied by groups of Mages gathering and talking about magic.

Roland walked past group after group of gathered Mages, and from the occasional statements he heard, he found that these Mages were quite solid in their theoretical knowledge, and when discussing, each one of them quoted classic worksthe Mages in Hollevin were really not on the same level as them.
