Chapter 147- White Tiger Empire
Dave and Elizabeth appeared in the White Tiger Empire instantly. With Elizabeth\'s powers, teleporting here isn\'t a problem. They both appeared inside a small hut and Dave can see how preserved this place is even though it looks old. He saw a picture of a young girl hugging an old man who was laughing, and he could see how happy they were.
Elizabeth saw where he was looking as she smiled but Dave cannot see it as she was wearing a veil. "It was the picture of me and my grandpa"
She looked at the picture while her eyes were full of reminiscence. "You know? My parents loved me, but my grandpa loves me the most and likes to spoil and give time for me."
"My parents are always busy managing the empire as they are the ruler of this empire. They loved me but they had no time as they always said that the empire comes first as it was their promise to their ancestors to take care of the empire."
"My grandpa took care of me for many years until one day he decided to tell me a story about the war 500 years ago. He told me what happened, and he said that his time is only limited. He passed to me his remaining powers through a forbidden technique, and it cost all of his remaining life."
"He passed to me the responsibility to protect this empire, so I am trying to do my best to not destroy his trust in me"
She sighs as her eyes are moist. She looked at Dave and chuckled, "Am I not fit to be a guardian as I am showing my weak side?"
Dave shook his head as he replied, "I am not Naruto who has Talk-no Jutsu but expressing yourself makes you more true to yourself, and everyone has their weaknesses."
"Just like I told you when you need some time to talk, just call me and I will listen"
Dave already experienced many ups and downs and he knew that if you cannot release or express yourself like him in his previous life, it can lead to depression, and it will make you feel heavier. It usually happens to men as they like to suppress what they are feeling right now as they will think that it didn\'t look good to become emotional. It was told in his previous life that even though men\'s population is smaller than females, the men are the ones who had the highest suicide rate as they like to suppress their anxiety, unlike females who usually cry about their pain and even talk about it to their friends. Not all females are like this but most of it is true.
Elizabeth didn\'t know who the hell Naruto was, but she knew that he was trying to comfort her. She felt weird as she had been advised by a younger one, but she liked this feeling and she felt like she went back to her teen when she was with Dave.
She can see that Dave is sincere with his words as he wanted to help her.
"Thank you"
Dave saw that she finally calmed down, so he smirked as he replied, "You looks cute when you are a kid, but I didn\'t know what you look like now as you are wearing a veil hehe"
Elizabeth realized that he saw her picture even though she was just a kid there, but she just smiled as she replied, "So what? The present matters and only my future husband can see my face"
She only had a picture without covering herself as she was with her grandpa. She is taking care of this place as her grandpa always stays here and lives an ordinary life.
She cleared her thoughts as she said, "I will bring you to meet the emperor and they already knew our transactions, so you didn\'t have to worry about the delay"
Dave nodded as he saw her taking out a pendant and she chanted a few words he could not understand, and they both disappeared from the hut and appeared in a spacious place where he can see many soldiers lining up and there is a middle-aged man and a woman who is sitting on the throne. Some people are wearing fancy clothes and he guesses that they are the ministers and the people with a high position in the empire.
Everyone bowed to Elizabeth except the middle-aged man and the woman on the throne as they shouted, "Welcome back Guardian"
The title of the guardian is no joke as it will only belong to the strongest, so everyone respected her. Everyone looked at the handsome man next to her and they couldn\'t help but be dazed. They heard about him as he is one of the not to be provoked list. They already saw his picture, but he is more charming, and he looks intimidating.
Elizabeth nodded then the middle-aged man stands up as he smiled at Dave and greeted him, "Welcome Young master Dave to my white tiger empire, I hope you enjoy your stay here I already prepared what you needed so you can go there anytime but we prepared a feast for your coming here"
Even though he is just a teenager, no one dares to disrespect him as they know how scary his father is and they are relying on him to gain support from Lucas.
Dave smiled as he nodded and replied, "I hope you treat me well"
The emperor waved his hands as he let the feast begin.
