You have to know that the height of the cockpit is up to Shichen's chest, and he can land on the ground so easily. This person is definitely not an ordinary person.

Shichen was deeply impressed by him and recognized him at first sight.

"Excuse me, Lady Emilia, Margrave of Rosval." The old man bowed.

His white hair was carefully combed back, and he was wearing a fitted black suit, like a butler's uniform.

The two men looked very old, but it was obvious with the naked eye that they were well-trained, and the faint aura they exuded made people alert.

“Hey~ Isn’t this Mr. Wilhelm~? How come you have time~ to come over?” Roswaal asked with a clown’s tone and a smile.

"I am just a follower. The messenger has come for something." Wilhelm replied calmly.

He was not at all surprised by Roswaal's behavior and seemed to be aware of his situation.

"Messenger? Is it about the king's election?" Emilia stepped forward and asked.

"Lady Emilia, long time no see, meow~"

Along with a playful voice with a tail tone, a girl with cat ears walked out of the dragon carriage.

The girl has neatly trimmed flaxen medium-length hair decorated with a white bow. Curiosity sparkles in her big pupils. Her face is pretty and cute, and she looks as lovable as a cat.

It’s hard not to like her, this is a girl with animal ears - on the surface.

When she got off the dragon carriage, she revealed her tall stature, but extremely slender figure. Her every move was full of feminine charm, and she seemed cunning and intelligent.

"Phyllis, long time no see." Emilia greeted the cat-eared girl politely.

“Hmm~ And Lord Roswaal, Rem, Ram... who is this?” The cat-eared girl named Ferris noticed Shichen.

"Hello, my name is Shichen, and I'm a guest of this mansion." Shichen smiled and introduced himself.

"Meow meow? Diner? Shichen? What a strange name." Phyllis blinked and looked at Shichen curiously.

"Phyllis~Don't worry about it, just treat him the same as me~" Roswaal explained happily.

"Mimi? Treat her the same way as Lord Rozwaal?" Phyllis widened her eyes and looked at Shichen in disbelief.

"Rozwaal, there's no need to say this directly, right?" Shi Chen asked helplessly.

"What does it matter? Isn't it good to let people know your importance in advance?"

"Forget it, whatever you want."

"Oh~ It seems like I have discovered something incredible. Hello~ Hello, my name is Felix Argyle, just call me Phyllis." Phyllis excitedly stretched out her hand to Shichen.

"Hello." Shi Chen shook hands with him, then quickly let go.

“Huh——?” Phyllis blinked again.

"Am I hated?"

"No, it's only when I look at it from such a close distance that I realize the incredible magic of cat ears." Shi Chen explained, shaking his head.

He had no resistance to cat-eared girls, but the cat-eared girl in front of him was a man!

So cute, of course it’s a boy.

If you're not careful, he might stroke your head and smooth your fur, but you have to hold back.

"Meow meow? Shichen, you are really conscious~" Phyllis understood what Shichen meant and laughed.

"Shichen, do you like cat ears?" Emilia asked.

"It's more than just love, I simply can't resist it at all..." Shi Chen confessed.

"So that's it, I understand! Since Shichen likes it so much, I will make a cat ear decoration!" Rem suddenly said seriously.

"Oh~ I'm looking forward to it then."

"I guarantee you'll like it!" Rem smiled sweetly.

"Haha~ You guys are really funny." Phyllis couldn't help laughing.

"Well~ Although it's a good thing to know Shichen's interests, shouldn't we talk about serious matters now?" Rozwaal asked with a smile.

"That's right, Phyllis, come in first," Emilia invited.

"Okay, meow~ Master Will, please wait here."

"Yes."

Arriving at the meeting hall, Shichen and Emilia sat together and listened to Phyllis explain the reasons.

Under normal circumstances, she was not the one to inform Emilia about the king's choice. After all, the person she served was also a candidate for the king's choice, just like Emilia.

Since she is one of the candidates for the king's selection, the purpose of her coming here is self-evident.

The reason why Phyllis came, besides notifying Emilia of the royal election, was also because the people she served wanted to form an alliance with Emilia.

On the surface, forming an alliance with Emilia seems like a good thing, but in reality, it is looked down upon by the other party.

If Emilia is considered as an opponent, the other party will never form an alliance with her.

The other party knew Emilia's identity as a silver-haired half-elf. With such an identity, it was already a great achievement for her to become one of the candidates for the king's election, but it was impossible for her to become the king.

No citizen would want someone like the one who is jealous of beauty to be king.

The other party wanted to form an alliance with Emilia because of this, because she posed no threat.

Unlike the other king candidates, who are all strong rivals.

"Lady Emilia, what do you think?" Phyllis asked.

Phyllis naturally did not explain the real reason, but just expressed his intention to form an alliance with Emilia.

"This..." Emilia hesitated and couldn't help but look at Shichen.

"Shichen, what do you think?"

"Ask me? This is not a good habit." Shichen reminded.

"Ah! Accidentally..." Emilia reacted.

She had unknowingly become dependent on Xiang Shichen.

After all, he helped me twice. During this period, he also prevented me from going out to play, and I basically had no say in the matter.

"It's nothing actually. I don't mind you relying on me~" Shi Chen reached out and rubbed her head.

"But......"

"Even if you're a king, you still need to rely on your subjects, right?"

"Having said that..."

"Don't worry, I will always support you."

"Time..."

"Well, if possible, please don't be so affectionate in front of me. I can't stand it, meow~" Phyllis had a look of dog food on her face.

"We are not being affectionate..." Emilia explained shyly in a low voice.

"It seems to me that they are similar~ Are Lady Emilia and Toki a couple?"

"No, no..." Emilia denied with a blushing face.

“No…” Phyllis looked at Shichen with a meaningful smile.

"It's only a matter of time." Shi Chen replied with a smile.

"Shichen...what are you talking about?" Emilia glared at Shichen coquettishly.

"I'm just telling the truth."

"Tell me the truth...Huh-Huh!" Emilia was stunned for a moment, and finally realized what Shi Chen meant.

He likes her!

But...why?

What is there to like about her?

She has no merits and her appearance is so ominous, how could anyone like her?

But when she thought of this, she also remembered that Shichen had taken her out to relax during this period of time, and had helped her unconditionally before.

It seems... true?

Chapter 503 Confession

“Emilia, just agree to Phyllis’ proposal,” Shichen suggested, not knowing Emilia’s brainstorm.

Emilia obviously didn't know the real reason why Phyllis and the others proposed an alliance, but Shichen knew it.

But it doesn't matter. With him around, if the other party dares to look down on them, they must be prepared to be retaliated against.

"Eh? Ah, I, I understand. I'll listen to you..." Emilia came back to her senses, blushed, and agreed hurriedly.

Rozsval sat in the main seat, smiling slightly, without expressing any opinion.

Not to mention Rem and Ram, neither of them could get a word in.

This meeting was actually Emilia's business, and Shichen participated in it without any scruples.

Not so much for others.

"Really? That's great. I can go back and report now." Phyllis clasped her hands together happily.

"Are you going back now?"

“Yeah, I’m sorry. Although I want to talk to you more, I don’t have time. Meow~ Let’s leave it at that for today. There will be plenty of time later. If I don’t return to my beloved Master Crusch soon, I will be upset.”

Crusch is the person Ferris serves, and like Emilia, he is one of the candidates for king.

There are currently four candidates for the title of King.

You can't become a candidate for the king just because you want to. You have to get recognition from the badge, which is the thing Emilia lost before.

The King Candidate will make the badge react and glow.

Before this time, I thought I would be qualified as a candidate for the king, but it turned out that I was overthinking.

"In that case, I won't keep you."
