Four days passed while Davis and Evelynn luxuriously spent their time, their lifestyle enriched from being involved in cultivation all day long to enjoying their time together.
He took her out and roamed around the Royal Capital, doing whatever that made her content.
Purchasing, Eating, Relaxing, Unwinding! Basically, it was a pre-wedding honeymoon, except that it was in the confines of the Royal Capital.
While enjoying with her by spending lavishly, he got to know about her even more.
About her likes, her views, and even about her family. Who she had a good impression of, and who she had an ill impression of…
In these four days, other than spending time with her, he also did his best to suppress his lust.
Having her near and not being able to make her his woman was hell in heaven scenario but despite all his urges, he still managed to respect her yearnings and locked his lower part till the marriage even though he still didn’t know the official date.
Davis and Evelynn had just filled their stomachs with a Sky Beast Stage Magical Beast Meat in an inn. The Magical Beast Meat which was a Tiger’s Meat was succulent and delicious.
They paid for the order and just left the inn when suddenly a transmission crystal lit up, calling him back to the Royal Castle.
Davis blinked but then smiled. He said to Evelynn, “Let’s go back…”
“Why?” Evelynn asked in a disconcerted tone. She had just starting to enjoy her time with him but they were now called to go back?
She just couldn’t accept it! Just when she thought of convincing Davis to not return this soon, he spoke.
“Diana, that little lass just became an adult yesterday!”
Evelynn became stunned but soon a smile blossomed on her face as she no longer had the urge to not return.
Both of them smiled as they shook their heads and returned to the Royal Castle.
Only one thought remained in their heads and that was the reason they were called back.
The Coming of Age Ceremony!
======
Half a Day later.
In the Empress’s Quarters.
Diana kept her head down, avoiding the gaze of the others because she was incredibly embarrassed.
The fact that she embraced adulthood at the age of 11 made her quite embarrassed beyond compare because even her elder sister Clara had only attained adulthood last year.
Wasn’t hers a little too soon? Was it because of her budding feelings of love?
“We intend to keep both Clara and Diana’s Coming of Age Ceremony three days later, after all, we have missed the right opportunity to give Clara one as she was participating in the Immortal Inheritance.”
“Mother, I don’t need one…” Clara said as she shook her head.
Claire shook her head, “What are you saying? You should definitely have one, and it’s better for you if you’re with your little sister at that time.”
“Your coldness only drives people away, but the beauty you inherited from me instead made it fatal to men. If you don’t show off at least once, then it’s a pity…”
Diana spoke, “Elder Sister, stop cultivating all the time. Be a woman for once, okay?”
Clara closed her eyes but then opened and nodded softly, “Okay…”
Claire blinked as thought, ‘That’s it?’
Davis who was watching their discussion finally heaved a sigh of relief. In a discussion that concerned womanly things, he felt that there was no need for him to be here, but he was also called for some reason.
They had been afraid that Clara would reject, but she seemed to easily give in this time…
Maybe it was because of Diana?
He didn’t know but felt that it was the case.
Clara moved her hands and caressed Diana’s hair, a kind smile appearing on her face.
Diana put her head down and genuinely enjoyed her elder sister’s touch.
Alright, it was because of Diana!
He basically confirmed it by seeing how those two interacted within this short period of time.
Clara only listened to him but she now also listened to Diana? Davis shook his head in sadness.
What methods did Diana employ? This little sister of his was absolutely cunning.
But it is impossible to be cunning in front of Clara, so it could only mean that she was genuine in front of Clara?
Davis was confused but if that was the case, then he felt that it was good too.
“Alright, everyone is here except father. Evelynn, go ahead and say it…” He nudged Evelynn.
Evelynn shrugged and pushed him with her shoulders, “You say it…”
Davis rolled his eyes and said, “Diana has a sweetheart…”
*Boom!~*
It was as if an explosion had occurred, leaving only silence behind in the medium-sized room.
Everyone turned to look at Diana, prompting her to step back in cold sweat.
She lightly trembled and pointed at Davis, “No… Elder Brother is joking…”
“That’s right, mother! Sister-in-law had joked about me, and it looks like elder brother has believed her joke!” Diana slightly laughed and shook her head.
Clara’s eyes narrowed and her reaction was caught by Davis and Claire.
Claire looked at Clara as she questioned, “Is she lying?”
The atmosphere delved into a thick stench of nervousness.
Clara kept glanced at Diana for a few moments passed but she did not comment.
Davis blinked and was totally flabbergasted, ‘Surprisingly, she knows to cover for her little sister…’
He couldn’t believe his eyes. Clara who only spoke the truth chose to hide this fact by staying dumb.
Davis sighed, “Clara, hiding this fact harms your sister, not protects…”
Clara looked at him with a slightly stunned expression on her face but then sighed, “Yes, she is lying…”
As expected, she was only intent on protecting her sister from insults.
Claire’s gaze fell on Diana and a moment later, she let out a sigh that ended rather quickly.
She didn’t say anything but instead looked at Davis, “Davis, you missed your coming of age ceremony as well, didn’t you? Why don’t you use this opportunity to make up for it?”
