Chapter 1465 Invitation (It really feels like time flies)
"So I think we should not copy it directly, but should have our own plans and ideas... How about it? Mr. Knight, I''m doing pretty well."
Strolling on the streets of Manalia, An also jumped excitedly and introduced his achievements to Duanmuhuai. Duanmu Huai walked beside An, looked at the buildings around him, and nodded in appreciation.
“Good, very good, great.”
Since An and Duanmu Huai traveled together, especially after she saw the near-future style city of that world on the Demon Planet, An has been obsessed with it, and has been talking about introducing the concept into Manalia. An naturally returned to Manalia a lot for this, but as a princess, she certainly didn''t need to do everything herself. She just made a plan and left it to her subordinates to do it.
Even for the planning book, An spent a lot of effort, especially after that, she followed Duanmuhuai to the war planet, Star Alliance, UNSC and even the Feilun World. The architectural styles of these worlds along the way opened An''s eyes and wanted to move them all into her own plan.
Fortunately, she knew that she would not be able to chew too much, so An chose some of the ones she liked and put them in more suitable for Manalia.
Now what An arrived with Duanmu Huai is the planning area she built in Manalia - this is not a residential area. Strictly speaking, it is a commercial + entertainment area similar to Kamimachi. Of course, Manalia cannot be as chaotic as Kamimotocho. The streets are clean, tidy and spacious, and the surrounding buildings also look quite grand. Not only that, An also designed an air orbital line in it - according to her, she planned to experiment here first, and after success, she could promote it nationwide to Manalia.
Although Manalia has teleportation techniques as a country of magic, not everyone can afford it. In contrast, the rail transit network is different. It can not only be used to carry out large-scale population mobility, but also show Manalia''s strength to other countries.
Of course, it is not technically difficult. After all, Manalia established a country with magic. As long as we know this concept, it will only take a minute to create similar tracks and trains using magic technology.
So it''s amazing to know magic.
According to An''s idea, she originally planned to invite Duanmuhuai to come when the ribbon was opened, but Duanmuhuai was not there at that time, so she had to invite others. Now that Duanmu Huai is back, An can''t wait to take him to see his hard work.
This area does look very good, and it can be seen that An has planned it carefully.
Duanmuhuai even saw canned drinks and ice cream... Well, it is indeed interesting.
"How? Mr. Knight?"
Sitting at the dining table, An stood his hands on his cheeks and looked at Duanmuhuai with a smile. The latter drinks the drinks in the can - the ice here is not like Coke, but it is more like juice, with a refreshing taste and very comfortable.
"Well, it''s great, it''s done well."
"Hehehe... Then when will we get married?"
“………?”
Thanks to Duanmuhuai''s strong self-control, otherwise the juice from his mouth would have sprinkled directly on An''s face.
"How did you think of talking about this?"
"It''s not too surprising, right? After all, we are unmarried couples who have engaged in engagements, so it''s normal for them to talk about this kind of topic. Or is it that Mr. Knight doesn''t plan to marry me?"
"No, I want to ask you, after so long, have you never thought about breaking the engagement?"
At the beginning, Manalia chose to get engaged mainly because of Duanmu Huai''s strength, and Duanmu Huai did not object because of An''s help. After all, engagement is just a form, and the two parties didn’t know each other deeply at that time, so it’s hard to say what will happen in the future.
But now...
"No, I think it''s good to be with Mr. Knight. Actually, we''re almost the same as getting married now, right? But I still hope for a grand wedding..."
It is said that although Duanmu Huai and An did not go further, many times, An did manage the affairs around him like Duanmu Huai''s wife. But as a companion, the responsibilities of being a wife are still different.
"What else?"
"Hehehe, and if you marry Mr. Knight, won''t you be with Gureya all the time? Ah, by the way, Miss Mary, Miss Mary is also very cute... It would be great if everyone could get closer..."
Looking at An''s whimsical look, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes helplessly.
"Are you treating me as a tool?"
"If there is no such thing, I also like Mr. Knight. Although you are very fierce and always go crazy from time to time, I am used to it, right? Oh, by the way, there is also the degree of fit - well, but judging from what I heard, it should not be a problem..."
What kind of fit, what have you heard about?
Duanmuhuai thinks it’s better not to ask this question.
"But Gureya won''t want to marry me, right?"
"This is not the case. Gureya doesn''t look at her like that, but she is very dedicated! For her, she can only feel at ease when she gets married to Mr. Knight... You should understand it too, otherwise Gureya would not agree to the engagement."
“…Okay, I admit what you said makes sense.”
Duanmu Huai shrugged helplessly. He could understand An''s meaning. Almost everything Gureya has now is based on the Inquisition, including the Dragon Man Country she built. So Gureya will inevitably marry Duanmu Huai to maintain the results of her efforts - this is also the purpose of the political marriage at the beginning, and it is not surprising.
Although Duanmu Huai will treat Gureya as a friend and companion, from Gureya''s perspective, I''m afraid I can''t feel at ease.
After all, the wife and the companion are still different.
Duanmu Huai didn''t react much to this. He had basically never experienced any passionate love. Like An and Gureya, they just had a long time together and got along with each other. They felt that there was no problem, so they could accept it - it was that simple.
There are no vows, and nothing unforgettable.
Since we are familiar with each other and think they are both pretty good and willing, then there is no problem.
Otherwise, what else do you want? Do you have to be like in romance novels, encountering unexpected amnesia, and Duanmu Huai is infatuated with it?
Or was Gureya hit by a truck, and then Duanmuhuai sacrificed herself to rescue her?
Not to mention anything else, if the truck hit Gureya, who might be unlucky! A dragon roar will blow you away.
“Great!”
Hearing Duanmuhuai''s answer, An excitedly raised his hands and jumped up.
"This way, we can officially form the harem!"
"To form a harem? You can make it clear first, is yours or mine?"
Looking at An''s excited expression, Duanmu Huai always felt that her real purpose should be this.
"Oh, Mr. Knight, that''s not what I said. Since I''m married to you, I''m your wife, then yours is mine, mine is yours, we are husband and wife, what''s the difference?"
Good guy, do you still want to turn this harem into the common property of husband and wife?
Do you want me to add a name to you?
Duanmu Huai shook his head speechlessly.
"So, when will you get married?"
"Wait until everything is over... No, wait until the ether phase engine is built, and the plan is successful."
Although this sentence is a bit like FLAG, Duanmu Huai doesn''t care. After all, this is also a big gamble for Duanmu Huai. It is not certain whether he wins or loses the bet. But as long as you can plan successfully, it means that your mission as a judge is over... Well, it is indeed time to consider your own problems.
"Then let''s just say that!"
Looking at An''s fat baby face in front of her, Duanmu Huai chuckled, then reached out and pinched her cheek.
"Well, that''s it."
At this moment, Duanmu Huai did feel a sweet atmosphere as if in love.
But, there is only this moment.
After returning to the trial court, he immediately regretted it.
"Listen, Mr. Knight and I have agreed to get married after this!"
An excitedly waved a list and shouted at everyone. When facing An''s notification, everyone also had different expressions - but it was obvious that An was not here to give them a warning. Because the next moment, An rushed to Gureya and grabbed her hand.
"Gureya, I''m married, you will marry Mr. Knight, right?"
"Okay, sign here first, and we will hold a group wedding at that time!"
“Collective…week?”
"That''s right, it''s fun to get married together!"
"Everyone?"
"yes!"
Faced with Gureya''s surprised question, An Li nodded for granted, then turned around and came to Mary.
"Come on, Mary, do you want to sign?"
"Hey? Miss An? This, I..."
Facing the list and quill handed over by An, Mary was confused and never expected that she would be implicated - and this program even skipped the date and love confession, and jumped directly to the marriage registration?
This is too fast!
"Lorena? Where are you!?"
"Hey? I? I am a nun. I want to serve the gods, I can''t..."
"Oh, isn''t Mr. Knight also a god?"
"It seems that you are right to say that...?"
"So Aojis, what about you?"
An turned his head and looked at Aojisi - the latter sat on his shoulder as usual after Duanmuhuai came back.
That''s her special seat.
However, facing An''s invitation, Ojis shook his head firmly.
"I don''t want it."
"Hey? I thought you would be happy to marry Mr. Knight."
"snort."
Hearing An’s words, Ojisi snorted lightly, then reached out and hugged Duanmuhuai’s head, staring at An.
"You and the master are just this kind of relationship."
"What''s your relationship?"
“………………”
Ojis did not answer, but just raised his head silently and looked like a winner.
As for what she was thinking, Duanmu Huai didn''t ask. Maybe he would give himself a knife to the little cotton jacket, and he wouldn''t be able to stand it.
"Then I''ll go and ask someone else..."
"Stop it."
Duanmu Huai finally couldn''t help it, and grabbed An''s neck and lifted her up like a cat.
"This is getting married. You think everyone is going out for a dinner, but it depends on who has time, right?"
“Hehehe…”
"Don''t do these things. You see, everyone is scared. In short, there is still time, so don''t be so anxious."
"That''s right. After all, it''s Mr. Knight. Maybe I''ll bring a few girls back! I''ll register together at that time!"
“………………”
Is this what I mean?
“Didi…”
Just after finally resolving the farce, Duanmu Huai''s personal terminal sounded the prompt sound again. He opened it and glanced, and then contacted.
Then, Dardanell''s voice came from there.
"Your Excellency Judge! Something big happened!"
"Tell me, what''s the matter?"
Hearing Dardanier''s call for help, Duanmu Huai''s face remained unchanged and reached out to take out his ears. This Shang Shanglangren always comes to him if he has something to do. When Duanmuhuai came back to clean up the communication, most of the messages asking for help were sent by Dardanell.
What a similar thing [Judge, something happened, help me! 】【It''s okay, the matter is resolved, the judge doesn''t have to worry]【Help the court, something happened! 】【No need to bother the court, sorry to disturb the matter】…
To be honest, Dardanell gave Duanmu Huai a feeling like Sha Seng in "Journey to the West", with only a few lines going back and forth all day long.
"Senior brother, it''s not good. The master was captured by the monster..."
"Brother, it''s not good. The master and second brother were captured by the monster..."
That''s about it.
"Tell me, which monster is it this time?"
Duanmu Huai yawned, and he helped him get the beauty completely and once and for all. How long has it been, and what happened?
"We have a business group from the extraterrestrial galaxy here and want to do business with us!"
"Oh? From the extraterrestrial galaxy?"
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai cheered up.
"are you sure?"
"I''m not sure, that''s what they said, and I don''t know if it''s a liar..."
"So you want the court to come forward, right?"
Duanmu Huai knew Dardanell so well that he naturally understood what he was looking for him.
"yes……"
"Okay, I''ll go and have a look. What''s the name of the business group?"
"What''s the name...Interstellar Peace Company?"
The base of the electric kettle at home broke two days ago, and then my grandmother complained that this thing broke after using it for more than a year. It was really useless. But I remember that I should have bought this for a while, no matter how long it took, it was definitely not last year. Then I went back to check the order - good guy, I bought it in 2018. But in our memory it seems like it has happened in the past two years.
From this we can see that a constant and regular life can indeed numb people''s perception of time. I live under this mountain and I am almost numb all year round. Every day, I have the same life pattern, so many years have passed, and I feel as if I have only been a few days... It''s so magical.
