Kapitel 50: Core Expansion Pill

Davis pondered for a while but couldn't find when he had made a mistake.

"Miss Evelynn, I can see that you are angry. If I had offended you for some reason, then I apologize. Let's forgot about our status and have a fair talk for once, shall we?"

Evelynn widened her eyes in disbelief. She didn't think that this little kid would have the capacity to behave like a gentleman and give an apology.

'At least he has the capacity to think like an adult for his age, and for that, I guess I should be thankful... That's right, Evelynn. Why are you throwing a tantrum in front of a child? Are you an idiot?' She asked herself as she almost blushed in shame.

'How do the royal family even bring up a child like that?'

She felt that she didn't even have the level of mentality that Davis possessed.

When she saw Davis at the hall, at that moment, she thought that she should release all her frustrations on him, which will make him cancel their engagement.

Now, all that frustration that made her suffer seemed like her own misconceptions after he apologized.

She managed to regain her bearings as she finally smiled.

"I'm also apologetic for making the crown prince worry for my sake just now..."

Davis, who saw that smile, became a bit mesmerized.

"Prince Davis?" Evelynn saw that Davis suddenly froze while gazing at her. She asked with a bit of worry as she had slightly taken a liking to Davis.

She thought that she might have somehow offended him slightly now.

Davis woke up from his reverie as he decided on something. He placed his elbow on the table, interlocked his fingers, rested his chin on them as he smiled.

"You're too beautiful, Miss Evelynn."

*Badump!*

Her heart skipped a beat as she froze for a second before feeling content for some reason.

"You jest, Crown Prince. I am aware that I'm not that beautiful..." Evelynn felt cheerful.

Truth be told, Davis wasn't immune to beauty at all. Because he held back in his previous life, he wanted to live the fullest in this life and almost decided on this woman. He liked her and wanted to make her his if she liked him back, but he always has to take the first step as a man.

"I've got a gift that I wanted to present to you, Miss Evelynn." He took a chest out of his spatial ring as he said that.

Evelynn stood up in shock as he didn't expect a gift.

They both had stood up. He came close to her and opened the chest. Inside the chest was a Peak Earth Grade Pill, which emitted a unique fragrance.

"This… Isn't this the Core Expansion Pill?" A knowledgeable person nearby shouted once he saw the pill.

"Core Expansion Pill? The one that is said to be difficult to refine because of scarce materials?" Another person asked in confusion.

"Yes, this is the Core Expansion Pill which is used for one to advance a level in Revolving Core Stage regardless of which level you are at! It can even increase the chances of one reaching the Body Transformation Stage, hence the scarcity and rarity..." Davis replied with a small grin on his face.

"Woahhh!!"

The surroundings clamored, becoming awed by the Imperial Family's wealth. They could produce Peak Earth Grade pills too, but not gift them as easily as the Royal Family.

Evelynn looked flabbergasted.

'What did I do to deserve this valuable gift? Could it be that he has truly taken a liking to me?' Evelynn thought but didn't move to take the Core Expansion Pill.

Even her Cauldon Emporium would not sell this easily if they managed to make or procure one.

"I insist," Davis said softly.

Seeing that Evelynn still didn't take the chest from her, he pushed it to her as he closed in on her and whispered in her ear.

"In the chest, look below the pill holder after you're alone."

Feeling his hot breath, Evelynn's eyes widened as she blushed visibly.

Davis moved back and smiled at her.

"Since the prince insists, then I won't refuse. I thank the Crown Prince for his bountiful present." Evelynn slightly bowed as she held the chest, her blush still didn't disappear, but she wasn't flustered. She only appeared more beautiful.

She then took that chest into her spatial ring.

Seeing the chest disappear, many cultivators in the Revolving Core Stage and even below were extremely jealous, but they couldn't do anything about it.

"Then I bid farewell to you, Miss Evelynn." Davis turned around and continued with clasped hands, "I thank the Cauldon Family for the sumptuous feast. It was delicious. I'll take my leave now."

He then left with Ellia and Renard while they joined up with him as he left.

Henry, who was an elder and a few others, accompanied Davis until he reached the carriage.

They spoke some pleasantries while trying to make a good impression on Davis. However, no matter what they said, Davis deflected them with his eloquent speaking that he was improving on from today.

Without causing a ruckus, he then bid farewell again and left the manor.

=======

After some time...

Cauldon Family's Manor, in Evelynn's room.

"Miss, why didn't you reject the gift? If you did, then I think that you would have made him so angry that he would have decided to cancel this marriage with you."

"Maisy, you sure can imagine. I don't think that level-headed child will fall for that trick. Besides…" Evelynn said as she blushed but stopped midway.

"Anyway, Miss, please take out the core something pill for me to see quickly..." Maisy acted spoiled in front of Evelynn. Their relationship was amicable and good since they were together since childhood.

Hearing that, she suddenly remembered the words Davis whispered to her. Thinking of that unfair action of his made her blush a little again.

No man or even a boy has ever gotten that close to her.

She nodded and took out the chest from her space ring. She immediately opened it was suddenly anxious to see what was underneath the pill.

"Woah! This pill has a good scent. One sniff and I can tell that this enhances my Energy Condensation Stage Cultivation." Maisy took in deep sniffs as she felt intoxicated by the unique fragrance.

Evelynn handed her over the pill and warned her, "Don't you dare eat it! I need it too."

"I know, I know, hehe..." Maisy innocently laughed and took the pill from her hands as she returned to being intoxicated.

Using this chance, Evelynn removed the pill holder in the chest and saw a letter and a jade crystal.

'A letter? And a jade crystal which breaks when the other one is broken?'

She took out the letter and read it.

[I want to talk to you alone, Miss Evelynn. Possibly, during the night when no one is around and able to interfere with our decisions about the marriage. I know that you'll be watched during the night if you go out, so I want you to stay in the Cauldon Pill Store these few days to avoid suspicion. I'll somehow sneak out and come to the Cauldon Pill Store in these few days to meet you. I'll break the jade crystal signaling that I am in the Cauldon Pill Store, so I hope you will be there as well at that time.]

'He... he wants to meet me in the night? And alone?' Indecent thoughts swirled around her head as she considered various possibilities. But as soon as she saw it was about the marriage, she calmed down.

'Well, a little boy would never be that devious, I guess...'

She contemplated for a moment before ordering.

"Maisy, prepare a few things. We'll be staying in the Cauldon Pill Store for a week. Also, inform my father about it as well."

"Eh? Okay..." Maisy glanced at Evelynn for a moment before continuing to sniff, circulating her cultivation manual.

"One week... I'll wait for you for a week, Crown Prince Davis," Evelynn softly muttered as she stored the letter in her sleeve pocket.

It was unknown what she had decided just now, but her gaze appeared curious and determined.

Edit: no one probably noticed that Evelynn held his letter important than a valuable gift that would increase her cultviation. so sad...

I read the toxic comments of previous chapter before and it seems like they are alphas who can make women come back after them with just their gaze. Good for you, alphas.
