Chapter 261 - Imported Boxes
Chapter 261: Imported Boxes
Revgen, Yale, and Nurvey walked silently for the Imperial Palace attracting the attention of everyone.
However, the attention was mostly attracted by Nurvey who was the princess and was well known by everyone. She was inferior in status to Revgen, the Emperor, and Yale, who Revgen had presented as the ruler of the continent, but very few people had met Revgen personally before, and Yale was an unknown face to them, so Nurvey was the one who was attracting most of the attention.
Of course, people thought that those two that were walking with Nurvey couldn’t be ordinary individuals, but they were unable to guess their identities.
Originally, Revgen wanted to go to his study, but Nurvey told him that no one entered there since the day Revgen went into seclusion, so it wasn’t a good place to welcome Yale.
Of course, the room where Revgen had been in seclusion was also discarded because Revgen felt that would be treating Yale as he treated others and that would be too disrespectful.
Revgen wanted a place that was well isolated from the outside, but all his personal rooms were in the same state as his study. Moreover, any place where someone besides they three could enter was immediately discarded.
It was when he was sighing due to the lack of decent places to speak with Yale that he had a great idea and suggested to go to Nurvey’s bedroom. Due to her status, her room was comparable to some houses in size; it wouldn’t be a problem having a peaceful and private conversation there.
Moreover, Nurvey’s bedroom was a place that no one besides her and those with supreme authority in the Imperial Palace could enter. As for those with supreme authority, there were only Revgen and Yale, so there wasn’t any need to fear someone else interrupting them.
At the start, Nurvey’s face fluctuated a bit after hearing Revgen’s suggestion, but she recovered quickly and nodded. She was a bit embarrassed about letting Yale see her room because she had never let a guy enter before, but Yale was a friend of her grandfather, and her bedroom was the best place for a secret conversation at that moment based on her grandfather’s standards, so she dispelled any embarrassment.
They needed to walk for ten minutes before reaching Nurvey’s room. Revgen could just have teleported them all to that place directly; even Yale could do that with his authority over the formations of the palace. However, Revgen wanted that the people saw they three walking by the palace.
Even if most people didn’t recognize Revgen, it was only a matter of time before they learned about Revgen’s identity and that moment Yale’s reputation would also increase.
Revgen knew that the current Yale was too weak compared to his previous self and that to make people respect him, he needed to act with a bit of strategy. After all, provoking rumors was far more effective than just saying who he was. That was because a lot of people wouldn’t care about past lives and only about the current self.
Nurvey hesitated for a second before opening the door of her bedrooms, and once she did it, Yale was shocked with the interior of her room.
The bedroom was luxurious and well decorated, proper for a princess. Moreover, there were a lot of stuffed animals in all the room, which was quite feminine for her given her cold appearance.
The room fitted perfectly for a princess except for some huge unopened boxes near the door.
However, what called Yale’s attention wasn’t those unfitting boxes, but those stuffed animals; they were all wolves, and clearly, they were based on Wyba.
“I heard that you asked for some custom stuffed wolves from the elders, but I never expected that much. More important, do something with these boxes, they are unfitting.”
Revgen liked Nurvey’s cold personality because it fitted to be his successor, but he was happy that his granddaughter had some feminine side. After all, Revgen considered that the cold personality was a must to rule over others, but there wasn’t any problem in being softer in private time. In fact, he considered that the contrast was good to avoid losing humanity.
“Received today. Imported from the Zuatania Republic.”
Nurvey had been asking others to create those stuffed wolves for her, and she even learned to make some herself. However, when she heard from an elder that a company named Thousand Frost Wolves Company had commercialized some goods based on Frost Wolves in Trade City, she had asked for a Sage Rank elder to go personally to buy one of each to her.
With her status in the Imperial Family, even those Sage Rank elders had to obey her, so that elder could just blame his big mouth because he was the one who told the other elders the news about the Zuatania Republic and the Thousand Frost Wolves Company which had acquired a lot of importance lately.
That Sage Rank elder was proficient in moving stealthy and was usually in charge to obtain news of the entire continent, but he never implicated himself in any external affair. Sadly for him, he turned into the errand boy for the princess, and he needed to obey her even if she was a bit unreasonable because when he told that to Revgen, he approved Nurvey’s decision.
“Oh, those are the ones you asked to be imported from Trade City. That little brat was really upset about your order, but after I told him to go, he lowered his head and obeyed.”
In the whole Imperial Family, only Revgen was able to call a Sage Rank expert a little brat. Moreover, everyone from the Imperial Family was his descendants, so they were all child for him, no matter how old they were.
Of course, Revgen was closer to those who had a more direct relationship with him.
He had only one wife and the most famous story about romance in the Revgen Empire was the story about Revgen’s love until he got married to his wife.
Revgen had a lot of sons throughout the years, but very few of them were like him and wanted a single love for their lives. One of the few who only had one wife was Nurvey’s father, who died fourteen years ago in mysterious circumstances.
Nurvey was his only child, and Nurvey’s mother turned gloomy since her husband died.
However, Nurvey wasn’t depressed about that, her mind was strong, and she showed that no matter the difficulties she could go ahead. It was due to those circumstances that Revgen had ended putting attention to her and in the end, decided to choose her as his successor.
“Open, them. I am curious about the things inside.”
Nurvey just nodded after hearing her grandfather; she obtained those imported goods thanks to him, and in any case, Yale and Revgen had already seen the stuffed wolves in her room, so seeing a few more wouldn’t be a problem.
Yale wanted to say Revgen that he was in a hurry, but he felt that he would lose more time arguing than letting Nurvey just open those boxes; opening them was only a matter of few minutes. Moreover, Yale recognized the logo of the boxes and knew that they were from his Thousand Frost Wolves Company.
Nurvey started to open the boxes and take out the stuffed wolves from inside; they were far more detailed than the ones she had. Of course, that was because the people in the Thousand Frost Wolves Company knew Wyba and had an easier time being perfectionists than the people who made the others for Nurvey. Nurvey herself had met Wyba, but her own skill in making stuffed animals was too low compared with the professionals of the Thousand Frost Wolves Company.
There was no trace of the cold Nurvey while she opened the boxes; she seemed like a kid opening a surprise gift. She seemed like a different person.
Nurvey needed all her mental strength to avoid jumping into a Wyba plush that was bigger than an adult man; she had already decided that she would sleep hugging it that night.
She was very happy opening all the boxes, but her face changed when she opened a huge one because neither she nor the other two expected the content of it.
That plush was on a real scale and also had Wyba on it, but she was on the head of a man. The Sage Rank elder had hesitated before buying that one. However, since Wyba appeared in it and that plush was a limited edition plush with the record on sales in the whole Trade City, he decided to buy it to avoid Nurvey being angry in the case that she wanted it later, and it was already sold out at that moment.
Of course, the plush of the man was identical to Yale who was in that same room, which provoked that the expressions of everyone turned weird.
“Julie, Oscro. I will kill you two for this!”
Yale thought that because he was truly ashamed of his plush being sold without his permission; he wasn’t happy of having unknown people having real size stuffed plush with his looks.
For a normal human, it was difficult to differentiate a wolf cub from another, but the same didn’t apply to humans, and that plush was Yale and no one else.
