Magic Deity: Godly Choices

Chapter 164: Her Highness Said: She is Not Free!

He thought back to the courtyard.

Her Highness Lilia’s one glance and one movement had made his heart and soul tremble, and he did not even dare to breathe.

Maggette could not help but sigh in his heart.

This Highness was really worthy of her natural status.

Although she was young, she already had the aura of an Emperor.

Maggette had served several Emperors of the Empire, but he had never felt the same majesty from them as Her Highness Lilia.

It was really terrifying!

Although Her Highness was called a princess now, in fact, her prestige and authority in the Empire were almost the same as that of an emperor.

The only difference was a title.

At the thought of this, he thought of that woman again, and could not help but show a mocking expression on his face.

“So what if you bewitch His Majesty?”

“In the Empire, in the end, Her Highness is still a man of her word!”

“As long as you can’t get past Her Highness, in the end, you’re still just a woman who can’t stand up to the public!”

...

Outside the palace.

The luxurious carriages had already stopped for a long time.

It was so long that the imperial guards stationed at the palace gates would occasionally cast their gazes over.

As for the commoners and nobles who passed by, they began to whisper in low voices.

These commoners who lived in the Imperial City would often see this group of carriages leave the palace in the past two to three years.

Therefore, many people also knew who the owner of this carriage was.

This made them somewhat puzzled.

The owner of the carriage was extremely doted on by the current Emperor. Why did she come to the palace and not enter for a long time?

Could it be that His Majesty no longer favored her?

Or could it be that something else had happened?

The people speculated in their hearts.

Some of the nobles who had connections or had heard of certain rumors did not dare to think too much and left as soon as possible.

After all, this pool of water was too deep.

It was so deep that they would be scared out of their wits just by looking at it, let alone stepping into it.

The sun was gradually setting.

The magical beast that was tugging at it was also gradually becoming restless.

The maids and knights who were serving in the carriage turned their heads from time to time and secretly looked at the carriage in the middle.

But to their disappointment, the carriage never had any movements.

At the same time, in the carriage, the old maid who was kneeling in the corner had an anxious look on her face.

It had been four hours since the person who had gone to report it had not returned.

There was no news either.

This was something that had never happened before!

What had happened in the palace?

The woman in the gorgeous palace dress was still using the fruit platter on the table.

Although she did not show it on her face, she felt a little irritated in her heart.

However, she knew that at this moment, she had to remain calm and not panic.

Otherwise, she would lose.

After waiting patiently for a while, a group of people finally came out of the palace.

However, they were disappointed. Princess Lilia was not there.

Even His Majesty was no longer there...

Only Maggette came over with a few maids and servants.

They walked straight to the gorgeous carriage.

Maggette bowed slightly.

They had to show some respect to the head of the palace.

Therefore, the curtain of the carriage was lifted by the old maid.

The woman stretched lazily and asked casually, “Why didn’t His Majesty come?”

Maggette didn’t look at the woman. His eyes were silent, and he was smiling. He said, “His Majesty is busy with government affairs, so he can’t come to welcome you personally. He sent me to welcome you to the palace.”

“Her Highness Lilia, why isn’t she here? Is she busy with government affairs too?”

The woman chuckled as if she had thought of something funny.

“Her Highness Lilia...” Maggette said in a low voice as usual, “I went to ask Her Highness. Her Highness said...”

“No time!”

Two words!

It was very calm!

However, when Maggette said these two words, the whole street seemed to have quieted down instantly.

The smile on the woman’s face froze.

It took a long time before she seemed to come back to her senses.

A thoughtful look appeared on her face. She moved her fingers slightly and looked at her nails quietly.

After a long time, she said, “Since Her Highness said that she is not free, then she must be really not free!”

Her tone was also very calm.

She seemed to not care.

However, from the corner of his eyes, he saw that the knuckles of the woman’s fingers had turned white when she said that.

Obviously, her heart was not as calm and natural as it appeared on the surface.

‘Her Highness Lilia really doesn’t hide her dislike for this woman at all.’

This thought flashed through Maggette’s mind, and he continued, “By the way, Her Highness also said...”

“What did she say?” the woman asked calmly.

“Her Highness said that you have been living outside the palace, and it’s very inconvenient for you to come in and out. Her Highness is considerate, so she specially prepared a residence for you in the palace.”

“Please go there. After you settle down, Her Highness will welcome you when she’s free,” Maggette said with a smile.

The woman was eating a fruit while Maggette was talking.

After hearing this, the woman frowned. After a moment, she spat out the core of the fruit and said to the old maid kneeling on the side, “This fruit is a little sour.”

This sentence obviously had a hidden meaning.

However, after hearing this, Maggette just smiled at her and didn’t say it explicitly.

Meanwhile, the old maid in the carriage was kneeling in a corner, trembling. She didn’t even dare to raise her heart rate, and her breathing was unconsciously stagnant.

“Her Highness is really... thoughtful!”

After an unknown amount of time, the woman said, “Well, since Her Highness has already ordered me to do so, I can’t be unappreciative... Help me thank Her Highness for me.”

Then she closed the curtain and sat back on the soft couch.

Seeing the woman’s flustered actions, Maggette sneered in his heart.

However, he remained calm and said with a smile, “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and take us to the residence. You’ll delay the noble. Be careful of your skin!”

With that, he led the way with a group of servants.

As for the carriage, they followed behind him and moved forward slowly.

Maggette was a tier-7 mage, so even though they were some distance away from the gorgeous carriage, he could still hear it clearly.

As the carriage continued to move forward, the sound of some objects breaking could be heard from inside.

It was obvious that the woman was not as calm as she appeared to be.

Inside the carriage.

The woman was sitting on the soft floor.
