From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider

Night.

In Kroeber's room.

At this time, Kroeber was hugging Veronica and sharing with her the interesting things that happened during this period.

"Dear, do you know? I saw a little squirrel today. It jumped on the branches. It was so cute!"

Kroeber said with a smile.

Veronica looked at him gently:

"Oh, it's really interesting. I just plan to raise a squirrel for fun. I'll go and see it tomorrow."

They chatted like this, enjoying each other's company.

What they talked about were all trivial things.

But it was these trivial things that made the relationship between the two of them warmer and stronger.

After some light topics, it was time to talk about more serious things.

That was what Gwendolyn wanted to surrender decently a few days ago.

On the day this happened, Kroeber had already explained the general situation to Veronica.

At that time, Veronica suggested that the other party should calm down for a few days, but now they happened to talk about this matter, so the two began to discuss it in detail.

Kroeber frowned:

"I can actually understand Gwendolyn's thoughts."

"She is just worried that her people will be treated unfairly by me after surrendering."

Veronica nodded:

"Yes, she is the head of the tribe after all, and she has to consider the future of the entire tribe."

"And she is still a high-ranking dragon knight and the queen of the sea tribe. It is not easy for her to lower her posture."

Kroeber sighed:

"But the problem is that the request she made is really hard for me to accept."

"She hopes that I can marry her and become a partner with her, How is this possible? "

Veronica was silent for a while, then said:

"Maybe we should think about it from her perspective."

"She did this because she didn't know you well enough and didn't trust you enough."

Krober pondered for a moment:

"Well, you have a point, but I think she is very likely unable to let go of the title of the Queen of the Blue Sea, so she wants to keep it in another way."

"But I really can't agree to her request."

For things like this, Krober doesn't even need to think about it, it is absolutely impossible to agree.

In human society, the husband-wife system is always monogamous.

The more noble the status, the less likely it is to challenge this system.

Monogamy is a basic system to maintain the rule of human nobles.

Only when this system exists can the marriage between two noble families be guaranteed.

If Krober chooses to accept Gwendolyn as his partner, then the first thing to be impacted is definitely the original marriage system of human beings.

The other kings will definitely jump out to blame him.

After all, a partner with a status is different from an underground lover.

An underground lover is just a tool to help the king continue his bloodline and vent his desires, but a partner can share the king's rights and status.

Like Veronica, in addition to being the Grand Duchess of the Golden Duchy, she is also the Queen of the Amethyst Ocean Kingdom. It's okay to call her the Queen.

It's the same anyway.

Krober and Veronica share a throne.

Kroeber shook his head helplessly:

"But Gwendolyn doesn't understand this. She only thinks about how to protect herself and her people, but ignores the rules in reality."

"She didn't think that if I agree, the diplomatic position of the Amethyst Ocean Current Kingdom will be passive."

Veronica comforted:

"Don't worry too much, dear. Maybe we can find an opportunity to have a good talk with her and let her understand our position and difficulties."

Kroeber nodded:

"I think so too. I have given her a few days to think calmly."

"Maybe this can solve the problem."

"However, I still need to think about how to better handle this matter..."

After all, she is an upper dragon knight, and she is also a top combat force for the current Amethyst Ocean Current Kingdom. Kroeber naturally doesn't want to lose her for no reason.

And the value of the mermaid clan is also very high. They can stably produce magic materials, which is also a rare treasure for the kingdom.

So the two continued to communicate on this topic.

After discussing for a long time, the two finally came to a conclusion.

Don't take the initiative to find someone like Kroeber. Veronica has to do it herself to kill Gwendolyn.

————

At this time, Gwendolyn was resting in the room of the Ocean Flow Island Palace.

She covered her head with a quilt, leaving only her eyes exposed.

At this time, she was also reviewing the negotiation a few days ago.

God has mercy on her, the Queen of the Blue Sea, but she had to propose to a human pitifully.

And that human actually rejected her directly!

"Damn it! I'm the queen! I'm the Wave Dragon Knight! How dare he!!"

After venting a few words, she began to doubt herself again.

"Am I really not attractive?"

Thinking of this, she quickly got up from the bed, got off the bed and ran to the floor-length mirror to admire her appearance.

"I have such a good figure, smooth and delicate skin, and beautiful eyes."

She looked at herself and talked to herself.

Looking at herself in the mirror, she couldn't help but feel a little narcissistic.

But why did that hateful guy reject her?

She was puzzled.

"Is it because of my tail?"

Gwendolyn looked at her tail. Her upper body definitely conformed to human aesthetics, so the reason why Krober rejected her was most likely because of her tail.

"It turns out that humans can't eat fine bran. The most beautiful part of my body is obviously my tail."

"Look at these scales. They feel cold and tender."

She touched her tail with her hand, and it still felt so soft.

"Only Krober, that big fool, doesn't understand my beauty. I am called the most beautiful queen in the sea clan!"

Gwendolyn comforted herself.

However, no matter how she comforted herself, she still felt a little lost deep in her heart.

After all, it doesn't feel good to be rejected.

Especially since she was directly rejected by Krober without even thinking about it.

Before making this suggestion, she actually hoped that Kroeber would reject it.

But after Kroeber rejected the proposal mercilessly, she became a little angry.

It can only be said that women's minds are really hard to guess.

Oh no, it's that the minds of all female intelligent creatures are hard to guess.
