Chapter 1012: I Have A Reques (1/2)

”Good! Good! Very Good!” The voice continued excitedly.

Nora Alstreim became heartened that her Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim wasn't against her decision but applauded her.

”Yes, I will not be able to come outside, nor will you all be able to see me during this time, so I'll leave the other end to you, grandpa.”

”Hah! Your grandpa will take care of it like he always does! Don't let anything bother you and concentrate on becoming a grand character. Even if you miss the Nine Eastern Territories Young Expert Competition, it is worth it!”

”Grandpa...” Nora Alstreim became moved but also felt a pang of hurt in her heart.

Her participating in the Nine Eastern Territories Young Expert Competition directly correlates to gaining a Law Tree Fruit as a reward and that single Law Tree Fruit would enhance the chances of Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim becoming a Ninth Stage Powerhouse, but he easily forgo that like it was nothing.

She couldn't help but shed a tear as she muttered in a shaky voice.

”Mhm... I will become a grand character... Take care...”

The messaging talisman lost its glow, but what replaced her expression was a type of blinding confidence that came from caring and the determination to not disappoint each other!

Inwardly swearing that she would repay this debt this one day, she looked at the two who were waiting for her and walked towards them in a confident stride before she stood in front of them.

”I have informed!”

Davis possessed an indifferent expression as he watched her make warm expressions like that, but he coldly looked at her.

”I assume you are ready then?” Princess Isabella asked.

”I am!”

”I see...” A curve appeared on her lips, ”Kowtow once then...”

Nora Alstreim suddenly became silent as she went blank for a second.

It took a second for her to process that statement that she couldn't help but blurt out, ”What!?”

Princess Isabella didn't have a change of expression, ”I said kowtow once.”

Nora Alstreim possessed a contorted expression on her face. To whom had she ever kowtowed? It was only towards her dead parents and grandfather!

She did not even kowtow to Ancestor Dian Alstreim as she was stubborn, but she was now required to kowtow to the Dragon Queen!?

She inwardly understood that it was a necessary matter since the master-subordinate relationship was like that, but her pride didn't allow her to kowtow to another person no matter how she tried to convince herself contrarily!

”Is this because I disrespected you, the Dragon Queen at that time in the Grand Welcoming Hall?”

She couldn't help but ask with reluctance etched on her face.

Princess Isabella's lips curved into a sneer, ”You are arrogant if you think this is for disrespecting me at that time when we first met.”

”It's not like I'm asking you to kowtow three times but only once. Every subordinate of mine had kowtowed to me once before they all pledged their loyalty to me. You are no different, or perhaps, should I ask you to kowtow three times since your talent is deemed less by me?”

Nora Alstreim's lips quivered. She didn't like being looked down upon, but her inferiority in front of the Dragon Queen had already started to display itself outside through her body.

Although her bold expression said otherwise, her body was trying to kowtow as her knees slightly caved, imperceptibly shaking in both necessity and reluctance as she knew that she couldn't lose this chance but also couldn't lose the pride she had cultivated.

”If you can't, then you are free to leave. The exit is right there...” Princess Isabella gestured with a smile on her face.
