Chapter 392 Another royal audience (1)

The prime minister's eyes couldn't help wandering as he looked at Elsa.

Even though she looked like a child with her big wide brown eyes, fair skin, and long brown hair, her figure was anything like that of a child.

These were bigger than his wife, bigger than any woman that he had seen before.

That hourglass figure on that short body...it really felt illegal...

I could see his wandering eyes, so I couldn't help revealing a smile that had a trace of sympathy in it.

After all, I knew what the prime minister was feeling.

I still cursed that one designer whenever I saw these female dwarves.

I wish that I could send interdimensional mail and send him a few knives in envelopes...

But since I couldn't...I could only accept that this was my new world.

After a long silence, the prime minister gave another cough and said, "Then shall we head in? His majesty is already waiting for us."

Elsa gave a quick nod since she could feel the awkwardness in the air.

The sooner that they went in, the sooner that this would disappear.

As they walked through the halls of the castle, they just walked in silence.

The prime minister would normally have a few things to say as they walked through the halls, but he really felt uncomfortable looking in her direction. And if he didn't look in her direction, he really didn't know which direction to look in.n--OvelB1n

So the only thing that he could do was look forward and lead the way.

There was no introducing the castle and bragging about how well built it was.

But what he didn't know was that he had just saved himself some embarrassment.

For these dwarves, the craftsmanship of this castle wasn't that great in the first place.

It didn't take them long to reach the throne room, but the prime minister had them stay here for a second before heading in first.

It was after a few minutes that he came back to lead us into the throne room.

As we walked in, there was someone that announced, "Introducing the Dwarven Kingdom's ambassador group."

As soon as we walked in, we immediately became the center of attention.

Compared to last time, there were even more ministers that were standing on the side.

It just went to show just how important this matter was for our kingdom.

Since the prime minister had already gone in to give them a warning, they knew who the leader of this group was and they all looked at Elsa.

She just calmly walked up to the center of the throne room and then gave a slight bow to the king.

The king didn't mind this and just gave a wave of his hand before saying, "Rise."

The dwarves all quickly returned to normal and there was a silence that hung in the air.

No one spoke because both sides were sizing up the other side.

Both sides wanted to learn more about each other, but neither side wanted to give up more information than they were willing to give.

So they were waiting for the other side to engage first.

In the end, it was Elsa who spoke first by saying, "Your highness, I am here on behalf of my brother, the Dwarven King to send his regards. Our country has admired yours for a long time and we wish to open up diplomatic relations."

When her voice fell, there was only silence that followed as all of the ministers stared at her in shock.

This was the last thing that they had expected her to say.

After all, the dwarves were famous for being isolationist against the humans.

It had already been over a century since the last meaningful interaction between the dwarves and the humans.

So it was hard for them to believe that they would suddenly come forward to build relations with their kingdom.

But here they were.

The status of the sister of the Dwarven King meant that this was a princess, so this was not a weak title.

She was definitely worthy of being able to represent the Dwarven King on this matter.

But when the king saw her standing there, he couldn't help being taken aback.

As he just stared at her, the corner of his eyes couldn't help twitching and he turned his gaze slightly as he didn't know where to look.

In the end, he settled for looking up a bit higher than usual so he didn't see what he shouldn't see as he said, "Thank you for coming to our country. It would be our honour to build relations with your Dwarven Kingdom. If there is anything that you need, then please feel free to tell us."

Elsa gave a nod before saying, "For now, we hope that we will be able to continue to work with the talents of your kingdom to develop our forging techniques."

When the ministers and even the king heard this, they couldn't help revealing confused looks.

Talents of their kingdom?

As far as they knew, there was no such thing.

Everyone in the world knew that the dwarves were the best when it came to forging, there was no one that could compare to them when it came to forging techniques.

So how could they want to work with humans when it came to this?

After a moment of being surprised, the king suddenly asked, "Miss Elsa, though you say you wish to work with the talents of our kingdom, I was not aware that we had such talents. Can you please tell us who these talented people are so we can cooperate with you better?"

Elsa was surprised to hear this before turning to look at me and saying, "Of course we're talking about Sir Zwein here."

When they heard this all of them couldn't help looking at me with shocked and confused looks.

All I could do was reveal a bitter smile when I saw this since I had already expected something like this to happen...
