Reborn As A Dragon Girl With A System-Novel

Chapter 435 - The Past: Love For An Eternity Part 4

As the days passed, Kana and Ar'en interacted more and more together. The feelings she had for him were growing stronger by the day. After about a year of hanging around the castle, getting used to her new environment, Kana decided she wanted to go to the castle town just below the castle walls. "I won't be able to go with you, but I have picked out a personal guard for you. He is one of my most loyal people and can be considered family. His name is Sho."

This was Kana's first meeting with Sho, someone who would one day save her life. "Your Highness, it is good to finally meet you."

??

"It is nice to meet you as well," Kana responded with a smile.

"Sho, I will leave my beloved with you. Make sure no harm comes to her." Ar'en said firmly. He did not want Kana to be hurt in any way.

"You have my word, Your Majesty." Sho gave a small bow before turning to Kana. "Your Highness, after you."

"Mmm…" Kana turned and was about to walk away but stopped her steps and turned back towards Ar'en, ran over to him, and hugged him with blushed cheeks before making a speedy retreat.

Ar'en watched as Kana left with Sho with a smile on his face. He was glad she was finally coming around. So far, the past year had been give or take. Some days she was fine benign around him, while others, she was reluctant to accept his visits. She seemed to be lost in a mental battle with herself on what she wanted to do. Luckily after almost six months of this, she seemed to have finally come to a decision, and her choice was to give them a chance. Now, if he was lucky, he could even sneak in a kiss here or there, and he cherished every single one of them.

"Your Majesty…" A man walked in with some files in his hands and handed them to Ar'en

"So it seems they decided to power up instead of trying to attack. Good work, for now, pull back. No need to instigate anything for the time being. If they wish to grow in strength, let them. By the time their deadline is up, our people will be more than ready. I mean, thanks to my beloved, I had started building an army to help her get revenge the second time we met. Plus, demons, devils, and demi humans all grow stronger faster than a human. So they will need to spend a lot of resources if they wish to catch up quickly. They will not be ready for a long time. Don't let this report be heard by my beloved. Otherwise…" A cold flash of light flashed across Ar'en's eyes as he looked at the man.

The Man shivered and immediately nodded his head. "Do not worry, Your Majesty, I would never let anything escape these lips."

"Mmm… Good!"

While Ar'en was dealing with his business, Kana made her way to the castle gates. As the gates opened, those who were passing by all turned to look at what was going on. When they saw Sho walking through the castle gates with a woman in a white dress, they all immediately bowed their heads. This, of course, startled Kana, who looked at Sho for an answer. "His majesty has already spread word of her highness. To be honest, the citizens of our demon's domain are all happy to know his majesty has finally succeeded in wooing you."

Kana's mouth dropped open, and she wondered just how crazy Ar'en truly was about her to go even this far. But she was also slightly touched. She liked the fact that the man she loved wanted to tell the world about his love for her. As Sho and Kana walked down the street, the citizens all parted and bowed slightly to show their respects to her. "Sho, is there any way to get them to not do this? It feels weird…"

"Your Highness will need to get used to it. They have all been waiting to finally see you in person. It will get worse once you are officially crowned." Sho answered.

Kana pursed her lips and blushed: "Who said I was going to marry him?" Sho laughed and didn't say anything. He had already seen many times for himself just how well the two got along.

As the two walked, a little girl came running up with a flower in her hand. She stopped in front of Kana and asked: "Are you His Majesty's beloved?"

Kana smiled and knelt down. The little girl was only around five or six. "Yes, I am. What's your name?"

"Yizzy. Miss Beloved, here this is for you." Yizzy handed the pink flower in her hand to Kana.

Kana giggled and lowered her head: "Can you help me put it in?"

"Mmm!" Yizzy smiled brightly as she carefully picked a spot to stick the flower. It was just she placed the floor right in the middle of Kana's head causing, Sho to crack up laughing. "You highness is good with children."

"Children are the purest beings in the entire world. Besides age, it is only when they experience hardship that they are forced to grow up. Such a cute little girl like Yizzy is the most innocent of all. If one day I have a child I will protect them from all the harsh realities of the world as best as I can. I would let them live a life without worry and allow them to grow naturally." Kana said as she patted the top of Yizzy's head. "Go back to your mom Yizzy, don't make her worry."

"Mmm! Bye, bye, Miss Beloved!" Yizzy yelled out as she waved and then ran back to her mother. Her mother bowed her head to Kana and took her daughter away.

"Maybe one day you will be able to do that." Sho could see a bit of longing in Kana's eyes. He would be sure to tell his Highness later on about this.
