บท 1495: Emperor Vixian

Edward was clearly smitten with Jasmine, and seeing her in her current dress did not help him get over her beauty at all. It was only a few seconds later that he even thought to turn around and greet the other two.

Edward made some small talk, asking Ning about his involvement with Zarius and whatnot.

"I managed to sponsor sir Zarius under these two's names. They are now the proud part owner of whatever it is sir Zarius will create next."

"You two? Lady Jasmine is sponsoring sir Zarius?" Edward asked.

"I am now."

"Say, Prince Edward. Is your family religious by any chance?" Ning asked.

"Deeply. My grandfather is a devout believer of God Zurinus, and likewise, we all are as well. Everyone should know this though. The pope came here for a reason, you know?"

"I see. Is that why there is a statue of him by the front of the palace?" Ning asked.
