The wind and snow around them trembled slightly.

Soran grasped his curved sword attentively, and Princess Anna seemed more pious, with a slightly excited expression. Little glittering snowflakes emerged from the sky, dancing in the cold wind and swiftly turning into someone that looked like Princess Anna. She was, however, more mature than Princess Anna, and her figure was taller and more voluptuous. Even without any expression, the figure gave a very powerful aura.

“Anna!...”

The elder Princess landed gently from the air while her clothes didn’t move, which made Soran’s eyes squint a little.

“Sister!” Princess Anna could not help standing up, opened her arms and wanted to embrace her sister. But then she remembered something, slowed down and gently touched her sister’s hand. The elder Princess’s fingers turned into snowflakes the instant Princess Anna touched her, but soon recovered its original form.

What!?

Soran’s eyes showed a hint of disbelieve.

What stood in front of them was not the Princess herself, but a snowy figure of her made up of some special force. The Wizard had a level 7 spell “Astral Projection” and a level 8 spell “Simulacrum”; But none of them was as amazing as the Princess’s spells. Even though it seemed like she was here, her true body was still in Arendelle. This probably was not magic, but something even more powerful; maybe this was similar to the incarnates of deities!

Is she Human? Or a Deity?

The Princess’s gaze fell on Soran as if she had seen something; She could not help but frown slightly. She gently extended her hand and said slowly, “Anna, I’m taking you back now. It’s still dangerous outside. I’ll bring you through a portal.”

The elder Princess muttered an incantation.

Following which a portal made from ice and snow appeared before their eyes. Soran was now very much in awe.

The appearance of the elder Princess had totally changed Soran’s impression of her.

The elder Princess probably was as powerful as those deities that could face thousands of enemies at once.

Fatespinners were that powerful?!

Princess Anna responded quickly; She reached out and grabbed Soran and entered the portal.

The space around them started to warp.

It was not a very good feeling because moving through portals was uncomfortable. Fortunately, the time they spent traveling was very short. With a slight shake of the space around them, Soran was pulled by Princess Anna and appeared at the top of a magnificent castle. In front of them was another elder Princess, but was not a projected figure; this elder Princess was a living and breathing person. She slowly opened her eyes to reveal her dreamy bluish pupils that had a mesmerizing effect. She gently opened her arms and exclaimed, “Anna!...”

“Sister!” Princess Anna launched herself into her sister’s arms.

The elder Princess embraced the girl in front of her, turned her head to look at Soran, and frowned slightly. “Captain, take this guest to his room. I’m going to talk to my sister for a while.”

Stern yet dignified.

When Soran saw the elder Princess, in an instant, his body trembled slightly; an inexplicable feeling of worshiping the Princess came to his mind. Even though the Princess only stood there quietly, she gave Soran a sense of awe, as if she was a powerful being looking down on the world. She clearly had the same face as Princess Anna, but she was as beautiful as a goddess; just a simple glance would make people’s hearts tremble!

Soran bit the tip of his tongue slightly as his heart was already trembling with storms and waves. He said to himself, “Her Charisma!? She must have a Charisma of more than 30!”

It gave people the impression that she was a powerful queen.

The legendary Queen of Succubi; as long as anyone saw her face, they would have to go through a legendary Test of Charm. If the person could not pass the test, then they would be affected by the Queen of Succubi. This portfolio was called the [Enchanting Beauty]. There was also a powerful deity of nature in the past, the legendary Goddess of Nature; she had the same ability, but her portfolio was called the [Beauty of Nature], which also activated a legendary Test of Will.

Soran looked at the elder Princess, and he had to go through a test.

Fortunately, he passed it.

Nevertheless, he dared not look at her again, for he was afraid he would have to go through another Test of Will; unless he was willing to yield to the Charm of the Princess. Obviously, the Princess had not cast any spell, she merely stood in front of him, which had already caused such an effect. This reminded Soran of the saying that you should never look directly at the faces of those gods who were famous for their Charm, as their beauty would affect people’s minds.

The two most representative deities were the Queen of Succubi and the Lady of Love.

Soran could hear the two sisters muttering about something.

The elder Princess noticed this and moved her fingers slightly; immediately Soran could not hear any more sound. A dignified court lady came over and bowed slightly. “This way, please! Her Majesty has asked me to bring you to your room. Thank you very much for bringing Princess Anna back safely. Her Majesty will give you the reward you deserve tomorrow.”

Soran frowned slightly, then bowed gently towards the elder Princess and followed the court lady out.

This doesn’t seem very friendly?

The elder Princess doesn’t even intend to speak to me? Isn’t it a bit too cold?

“Hmm?”

At last Princess Anna recovered her wits after talking for some time. She took the elder Princess’s white fingers and said happily, “Thank the gods for Soran! If it weren’t for him, I would have been caught by those bad guys! Sister, you must reward him!”

“Hmm? Where’s Soran?”

The elder Princess showed a rare gentle smile. She reached out and stroked Princess Anna’s long hair and said slowly, “I think he’s very tired, too, so I asked the guards take him down to rest. Don’t worry, you can talk to him again tomorrow. Now you must be exhausted so shall I take you back to your room?”

After hearing what her sister said, she did feel quite tired.

She hardly had a good rest these few days. Now that she had finally returned to Arendelle, she instantly felt tired and wanted to take a hot bath before going to bed in her soft bed.

Sister is right.

I’m really tired and dirty now. I should take a bath and sleep first, then I’ll see Soran tomorrow.

I am a Princess after all!

How dare he treat me like some country girl! He didn’t even take a good look at me!

After thinking about some nonsense, Princess Anna followed her sister towards the palace. The decorations in the palace were very luxurious. The room had beautiful fresco sculptures, soft plush carpets, a crystal lamp hanging above. This wealth had been accumulated for thousands of years and every corner of the palace showed the most luxurious wealth. The elder Princess asked for Princess Anna to be bathed and dressed, then went to the hall of the palace.

The guard who had brought Soran to his room waited at the hall.

The guard bowed slightly. Arendelle did not have the etiquette of kneeling; even on formal occasions, people would only kneel on one knee. In normal circumstances, people would just bow their heads to show respect. The guard quietly walked up to the Princess and whispered, “The guest is in his room and had refused any maids; looks like he is an adventurer who knows restraint.”

The elder Princess’s expression was somewhat strange; she said slowly, “I was able to smell Fear and misfortune on him.”

“He is definitely not a simple adventurer.”

“He’s covered by too much blood and slaughter. Prepare rewards tomorrow morning and send him off once he had accepted them.”

The guard nodded slightly and said, “Understood, Your Majesty.”

The elder Princess hesitated a little, reached out and rubbed her forehead and said, “This man did save Anna. Be more generous with the rewards; pick out one or two pieces of legendary equipment, I’m sure an adventurer like him doesn’t care that much about monetary rewards.”

The guard was shocked for a moment, then replied, “As you wish, Your Highness.”

“You may go now.”

The elder Princess waved her hand softly and appeared on the balcony of the castle. She looked at the snow-covered mountains in the distance, and murmured, “The gods have begun to appear... Frostmaiden actually came to the Material Plane in person... many of the gods had gone silent too...what does all this mean?”

“A mere mortal who has the smell of Fear and the blessing of Lady Doom.”

“I’ll never let him get too close to Anna. Lady Doom already represents misfortune; Those who are blessed by her must surely bring disaster!.. His fate seems to be full of endless blood and slaughter!...”

“Fate!... Why when I get closer... The more confusing things become!... Is there really such a thing as fate in this world?...”

“Or is our destiny changing all the time?...”

The elder Princess slowly disappeared.

The next moment, she appeared outside a room, which was a natural hot spring. Arendelle had the best natural hot springs in the world. The hot springs were brought into the palace by the top-grade Alchemy technology. Every year, more than ten thousand Gold Derahls would be spent to maintain it. Water from hot springs flowed into the palace all year round. The room was filled with water vapor, and the court maid could be seen vaguely waiting on Princess Anna to finish her bathe. The girl’s white and round toes dipped into the hot spring then slowly walked in, giving a sigh of satisfaction.

The elder Princess showed a faint smile then she too took off her long skirt.
