Reborn: I'm A Dragon Girl With An OP System
chapter-353-30041322

Diablo returned to my side, where I took his hand to calm him down. I then looked at the dwarven king and bowed my head as I said with sympathy: "I am sorry for your loss…."

"No…. I had no idea that someone was controlling my son from behind the scenes all this time." The dwarven king slumped down into his throne. Only after a few moments of quiet did he stand up and bowed to me and Adel: "Princess Cyrilia, Crown Princess Adel, I apologize for any inconveniences my kingdom has caused you."

"It's fine. You have a good kingdom. I wish all kingdoms were like this. But as king, please keep an eye on your people and look at things from their view and not from on top of the throne. The craftsmen that will be following me back are still your kingdom's people unless they decide to take up residence in Gravos. If you wish to make formal ties with the Gravos kingdom, I suggest you speak to the current King. So take this, if you wish to get in contact with him." I handed over an orb that would allow the dwarven king to contact one of the Gravos Kingdom's aides.

The dwarven king looked at the object in his hand and smiled. He never thought there would be a day he would actually want to form strong ties with another kingdom. His gaze fell on his only other son, and sighed. If he was only nicer, then maybe…..

"Royal Father." Thurul suddenly spoke up. "When the time comes that you can no longer rule the Dwarven Kingdom, may I suggest merging it into Gravos? As you know, the Crown Princess Adel is standing right here as well as her Princess Consort. Once the two get married, Crown Princess Adel and Princess Cyrilia will be the next rulers of the Gavos Kingdom. I think with the things these two do and creating a teleport that supports both kingdoms in trade and travel, the two will become a powerful existence."

"This…." The dwarven king looked at Thurul and then at me and fell into deep thought. Only after a few minutes did he say: "When that time comes, I will think about it."

"Then, your Majesty, we will take our leave." I gave a proper bow this time as I turned on my heel, with everyone else following behind me. Things didn't go as I expected, and new things began to crop up. Now that I know that Azengrade was only a general, I can only assume that whoever the leader is is even more powerful. This did not bode well for us, which means we need to begin forming a fighting force strong enough to defend against anything that may come.

"Thurul, you will need a system. And you will need to start diving into dungeons. As well as the other craftsmen. They will need to spend some time leveling up so they can upgrade their skills. As will I. We will do it in batches. When I begin my dungeon diving when I get back." I had wanted to check out small worlds that the academy had, but I will need to postpone that and focus strictly on leveling up.

"Alright, Lass, but you must protect this old man," Thurul replied with a chuckle.

"Haha, I will! For now, let's take some time to tour the city." I decided to try to put things off for the time being while we took a small break. I think everyone needed it.

In a blink of an eye, two weeks passed, and a total of just over five thousand craftsmen were willing to follow me back. The dwarven king also came to send us off. Since we were using a teleport, the trip back would be instant. This meant the airship and all would arrive quickly. Trade talks with the dwarven kingdom were still ongoing, and the king seemed to be very stressed out. Maybe because I keep putting more work on his plate, but what can I do? Things keep popping up wherever I go.

"So that is what happened," I said as I stood there in front of the king, who had a sour puss on his face.

"Faith, are you trying to work me into an early grave?" The king asked.

"Not at all! I can't help what happens when I am out and about, but you do not need to worry about it anymore. Once the dwarves are settled in I plan to make my way to the nearest dungeon with half the group and begin leveling up. We need to be at least in the level 1000s if we wish to really face off against this unknown threat. And it seems Azengrade and his men are all high level, at least this Teladeadja was level 800." I explained.

"Good… Please stay low for a while." The king let out a sigh of relief before continuing. "When do you plan to hold your wedding?"

"Ummm, after graduation. I want to settle things there first. Which means I will need to take the graduation exam." I said. I was still gunning to become a magic knight. While I really did not need the title since I was a princess already, I still wanted to achieve the goal I set for myself all those years ago.

"Very good. Then we will begin preparations for the wedding. But ummm… how many are you marrying?" The king looked at both Diablo and Iena, who were standing next to me as well as Grace.

"Adel and Sophie, as well as Iena and Diablo. But do not worry, Diablo is only allowed to sleep with me." I said with pursed lips causing the King to cough. Was that too much information?

"Cough… Then I will settle things to host a grand wedding. But if I do this, I will be making you my first heir which will give you a new title. After all, only the ruler is allowed to have multiple spouses." The king looked at me with a firm gaze. I pursed my lips and looked at Adel, who looked the other way. So basically, in order to marry Adel and the rest, I was going to be forced yet again….
