"I imagine Her Highness wouldn't be happy if such a thing were to happen, your Highness." Said Illumia calmly as she glanced at the spinning Elif, who suddenly stopped at her words.
"Hmm, I suppose you're right; welp, I tried Sarah; looks like you're on your own." Remarked Elif with a nod as he looked down at Sarah, who was too preoccupied with basking in his embrace to hear a word he said.
"Huh? What did you say, your Highness?" Asked Sarah as she looked up at Elif while his expression twitched in slight annoyance as he tossed her toward Marley, who gently caught her.
"He just said you're obligated to stay by my side forever; that's all you need to know." Declared Marley as she once again embraced Sarah while digging her face into her neck, seemingly sniffing her for some reason.
"Anyways, Sarah, since you specifically came to spend time with your beloved and gorgeous Prince, I'll put my plans aside and indulge your request." Stated Elif with a prideful and narcissistic expression as he fanned himself with his Quạt tay and made a left down the hall, heading toward the stables while everyone else followed behind.
Walking through the hall, blowing kisses to a few maids that passed by, causing them to faint, we eventually exited from the side of the palace and arrived in the stables; after a little more walking, we came across my favorite two unicorns, which so happened to be the only unicorns I know.
"Ahh, your body is so soft, Zulo; I'd love it if I could just sleep on you." Said Elif with a satisfied sigh as he hugged Zulo's neck while resting his face on her soft mane.
"Zala's body is softer, your Highness; I don't know what you're talking about." Remarked Sarah with a smile as she stroked Zala's mane, causing her to neigh in pleasure.
"Hmph, you clearly don't know what you're talking about, Sarah. Zala's body is definitely comfortable, but Zulo's softness is superior; it's like resting your head on the fluffiest pillow in existence." Stated Elif with a slight frown while resting his head in Zala's mane as he looked at Sarah, who was glaring back at him.
"I may not be more knowledgeable than you, your Highness, but you're wrong; Zala's softness is unmatched!" Said Sarah seriously as she firmly stood her ground, which annoyed Elif.
"Tch, I can't believe you, Sarah; just after I said I'd help you, you came here and made such an unbelievable claim." Remarked Elif with a huff of annoyance as he turned away from Sarah and ignored her while he continued to enjoy Zulo's soft body, prompting Sarah to do the same.
"That is our Crown Prince and future Emperor." Muttered Illumia as she, Marley, and Idonea blanky watched Elif and Sarah argue.

After Sarah and I finished our little argument, which honestly lasted longer than it should've, I had the stable master fasten Zulo and Zala to the royal carriage before we entered inside and headed towards the front gate, where Mandy and her guards were already waiting for us.
Once we had our rendezvous with my personal royal guards, we left the royal grounds, though not long after, I realized that with Mother and Father leaving the Empier to acquire my present and Elanie making one of her contracts, there was no one of authority in the palace, besides Grandmother and Grandfather; however, as Mother and Father said, they won't bother interfering.
'Eh, I'm sure it's fine; I doubt anything will happen.' Thought Elif while calmly sitting in the carriage as he looked out the window, enjoying the bustling sight of Yggdrasil.
Despite leaving the royal grounds, neither Sarah nor I had any ideas of what to do, and after a little discussion, we just decided to eat at the Elven Cuisine Pagoda, which is where we, or I should say I usually go whenever I stroll around Yggdrasil; after all, I can eat an unlimited amount of lightning cherries there.

"Haa, that was delicious! Give my compliments to the chef!" Stated Elif with a satisfied expression as he looked at the manager, who he had come to know quite well over the years.
"I'm glad our food was able to meet your wishes, Prince Elif." Said the manager with a slight bow, ignoring the fact that Elif didn't touch anything except lightning cherries.
"Your Highness, all you ate was lightning cherries; what do you mean compliments to the chef?" Remarked Sarah as she turned to her right, looking at Elif, who was sitting right beside her, causing her to be the envy of Marley, Idonea, and even the dancers on stage.
"So? The lightning cherries tasted delicious; also, stop trying to be a buzzkill, Sarah." Said Elif with a raised eyebrow as he used a handkerchief to wipe his face, which was already spotless.
"Haa, whatever you say, your Highness." Muttered Sarah with a shake of her head as she cleaned her face before standing up, followed by Elif doing the same.
"Now, if my two lovely servants could escort me to my carriage." Remarked Elif with a slight smirk, looking at Marley and Idonea, who had been patiently standing behind him, as he lightly clapped his hands, causing them to flank his sides.
With Marley and Idonea on my left and right, I wrapped my arms around their shoulder as we left the room and walked down the spiraling flight of stairs, all while they stayed closely glued to my body.
"Hehe." Said Marley with a slight chuckle as she embraced Elif while sticking her tongue out at Sarah, who was giving her looks of envy.
"Hmph." Said Sarah, huffing in annoyance as she folded her arms and increased her pace, leaving the three behind.
"Really, Marley? Teasing your own sister? Don't you have any shame?" Questioned Elif with a shake of his head as he reached down and lightly bit Marley's ear, which was a sensitive spot for Elves, causing her to tremble slightly in pleasure.
Seeing Marley tremble, I smirked and did the same thing to Idonea, causing her also to tremble while a slight blush adorned her cheeks, which only spurred me to tease them some more.
While I'm sure from an outside perspective, I must've looked like those arrogant and lustful young masters who indulge in pleasures of the flesh, just like Sarah, despite being the Crown Prince, I also don't have much spare time; these times are relatively uncommon, so I like to enjoy it to the fullest. Most days, I spend my time training with Illumia, improving upon my various techniques, and doing my Princely duties; while I do get some slight spare time in between, it's not much, hardly enough time for me to enjoy a short bath, and I've got no time at night as it's spent cultivating and comprehending the Dao.
So, really, besides the two or three days a month when I take a short break from all that to enjoy myself, I'm almost always busy.
'Urgh, and now that my coming-of-age birthday celebration is just around the corner, I doubt I'll have any time to enjoy myself until my birthday.' Mused Elif with a slight frown before shaking his head and ignoring it as he, Marley, and Idonea finally exited the building, walking atop the red carpet that was explicitly laid out for him.
"Y-Your Highness, please stop; we're in public." Said Idonea with blushed cheeks as she noticed the numerous spectators, though Elif didn't listen.
"Hmm, how about no?" Remarked Elif with a slight smirk as he continued gently biting and caressing Idonea and Marley's ears with his mouth.
Unfortunately for me, while I was enjoying myself as I teased my two servants, a carriage I'd never seen before stopped beside Sarah, who was just patiently standing in the street with her arms crossed while looking at us; however, what happened next completely shocked me.
"You there, woman; you're beautiful; I'll give you the privilege of joining my harem of twelve wives and thirty-eight concubines as my thirteenth wife!" Said a masculine yet nasally voice from the carriage that stopped just before Sarah, prompting the double doors to open, revealing a decently handsome Elf with an arrogant and lustful smirk as he gazed upon her.
"Eh, is he speaking to Sarah like that?" Asked Elif in surprise since even without his presence, Sarah was still the daughter of Nordan Eve, Patriarch of a noble Arch-Duke family.
"Tch, that fucking bastard; how dare he oggle my sister! I'm going to rip his eyes out and make him eat them!" Said Marley angrily as she glared at the arrogant and lustful noble, causing him to shiver subconsciously.
"Heh, calm down, Marley; let Sarah deal with this on her own at first; you can't always protect her; otherwise, she won't ever grow." Remarked Elif softly as he stopped walking and whispered in Marley's ear, causing the tips of her ears to become slightly red.
"Hmph, fine, but only if you kiss me on the cheek." Replied Marley with a slight frown.
"Nope. I'll kiss you when I feel like it, not when you ask me." Stated Elif with a smirk, his words causing Marley to click her tongue as the four watched the devolvement play out before them.

"Hmph, stupid Marley getting to be beside His Highness while I'm stuck training to become the Matriarch; why can't Father exile me from the noble family too?" Muttered Sarah in annoyance as she kicked the ground, though her eyes suddenly widened.
'Wait! That's not a bad idea; if I do something terrible that forces Father to banish me from the noble family, then I can spend the rest of my life with His Highness! That's a brilliant plan!' Thought Sarah with a large smile of excitement, which lessened when she spotted Elif, Marley, Idonea, and Illumia leaving the Elven Cuisine Pagoda.
