Book 1: Chapter 5: Winning a Small Lolita
An avenue ran towards the east from the generals official residence. This path lead to the Imperial Palace. Lush with trees on both sides, covering the entire avenue under shade, a cool and refreshing sensation could oft be felt here during summer. However, it was late autumn now. The foliage withered, leaving naught but bare shivering branches within the chilly wind. At this moment, a carriage made its way towards the palace through this avenue.
Aiwa couldnt care about the gelid atmosphere. He was trying to imagine the Queens visage from Margarets description.
A woman with peerless beauty, such was the conception he held of her.
Aiwa could feel the dignity as well as the imposing aura the palace emitted from 1 li away. He had often played with his childhood friends at this place. They used to wander the high palace walls while dreaming of the Queens appearance. She was the emblem of power, but that wasnt due to her beauty; she was rather a demonic queen than a beautiful woman within their childish imaginations.
TLN: 1 li = 0.5km
He hadnt visited the imperial palace again and by the time he was 15, he had been sent to the East Empire to study, several hundred li away from Montelago City.
The decision was made by his father, General Kyle and the Empire had no play in it. There hadnt been any battles between Hass Empire and the East Empire for the past 59 years. Merchants arriving at the Hass Empire from there spoke of its mysteriousness, piquing the interest of Kyle. Although he was known to be obstinate, he decided to send his son there to gain knowledge and experience. If he didnt cultivate his son early, his future prospects would be limited, making it difficult for their Holtzer Empire to retain their position within the Empire.
Groote had already nabbed the position of the Prime Minister using the influence of his family within the past year. His few sons all held important positions within the army. It was no doubt a zenith time for the Herman Clan. However, Kyle only had his son, Aiwa. This made Kyle anxious as it would be difficult for this young lad to contend against the Herman Clan. He would have never sent his son to meet the Queen after he had just arrived back home if it wasnt for this fact. If he is able to obtain the Queens recognition, it would elevate the Holtzer Clans status. Even Groote wouldnt dare despise their Holtzer Clan then.
The Queen had already commanded for Aiwa to come see her. Although Kyle wasnt reassured about his son, he also didnt have any other choice in this matter. He could only console himself by believing in the experience his son had gained in the outside world during these past 2 years.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the Imperial Palace. Aiwa dismounted the carriage while wearing the Holtzer Clans insignia on his chest.
At this time, a luxurious carriage came over galloping from another avenue, when Aiwa was preparing to enter the imperial palace that carriage quickly stopped right in front of him.
Arousing Aiwas attention were the pair of male and female sitting together on the carriage, the man was approximately over 20 years, looking confident and elegant, wearing a Junior Officers uniform; as for the woman she was wearing a skirt adornment reaching her knees, appearing delicate and pretty, age approximately 15, 16 years, with a highly sticking out nose bridge, blue eyes, long-long eyelashes, and elegant brown hair covered up under a female hat at the crown of her head.
This pair slowly came down from the carriage. Aiwa had a dj vu feeling, after seeing the Herman Clan insignia on their chests; he remembered that they were the son and daughter of the current Prime Minister, Groote.
After getting off, that girl pulled the mans arm towards Aiwa. In her memory, such a handsome boy never existed in the Holtzer Clan.
[If I havent guessed wrong, you must be Young Master Aiwa? Surely, you arent planning to offer a grand plan to the Queen at the audience with her.]
Federer said.
[I dare not, myself is receiving Queenss summon and arrived here]
TLN: Myself here is used as a humble way of speaking.
Aiwa had already heard about Herman Clans Young Master Federer, a guy whose mouth wouldnt spare a person, therefore he didnt feel like quarreling with this kind of man, and modestly bowed his body.
Relying on their clan insignias, these three passed through the imperial palace sentry, entering the heavily guarded imperial palace. Within Hass Empire, there has never happened an incident of impersonation of these two great clan members; therefore, the imperial palace guards simply let the two great clan persons be exempt from checking. These insignia were like an all-pass within Hass Empire.
This party of three persons waited in front of the door of the Queens office. Soon, someone came out to inform these two Young Masters and Young Lady Dolly to come in for the audience with the Queen.
They entered the Queens Office side by side. Rather than to say this was an office, it would be right to say that it was a luxurious hall. The Queen was sitting at the end of a spacious table, accompanied by a girl on both sides. Although they didnt wear uniforms, but as soon as Aiwa entered the inside the hall, he faintly felt the cold air emerging from the two girls. Regarding anyone entering inside the Queens office, these two higher than 10thrank skilled beautiful womans ritual was to closely probe them.
Aiwa, who possessed a mere 3rd rank strength, was almost knocked down along with that hidden force. Although his body didnt move, but he knew, those beautiful women standing at the Queens side had sensed Aiwas weakness, and couldnt help but cover their mouths and laugh.
After they saluted the Queen together and obtained permission to sit on the high seats, Aiwa sat on one side while brother-sister pair; Federer and Dolly sat on the other side.
After the Queen sized up Aiwa once, a trace of happiness flashed through those deep pupils, but she quickly changed her sight towards Federers face.
[Federer, do you have any important matter for me today?]
This was the Queen being persistent with her interrogation, but this really wasnt baseless. In fact, each and every person who came to the imperial palace seeking to see her all had important matters to speak of, if not, who would dare to come and chat with the Queen?
[Your Majesty, recently the southern part Tanzya tribes have frequently disturbed my empires common population, I wish to request Your Majesty to give me another opportunity, to lead my soldiers and kill all the Tanzyanians!]
Federer stood up and said ambitiously.

[Those Tanzya women arent vegetarians, if you desire to establish achievements, then I feel it would be better to send you to the West and fight there, perhaps their terrain would suit your tactics better.]
The Queen said.
Hearing the Queen say that Tanzya Women are difficult to deal with, Federers heart quickly felt unwell. Because, just a few days ago he had suffered a defeat by a Tanzya woman, so he was still unable to swallow this anger till now. He didnt expect that the courage which he had crawled up to gain the Queens admiration would instead result in a reversal. Still, the Queen didnt hold any confidence in the fight between Federers soldiers and the Tanzya tribe, because Federer had already suffered two continuous defeats at their hands. Those Tanzya tribes were also fighting over some Hass Empire border area, and didnt endanger Hass Kingdoms foundation. In the Queens eyes, Tanzyas disturbance resembled a little bullying thats all, not worthy of making such a fuss.
The Queens gaze went towards Aiwa: [I heard from your father that you went to East Empire to study for two years, surely you must have learned a lot?]
[Answering Your Majesty, I fear my father has exaggerated much. I only went out to play for 2 years thats all.]
The two maids at the Queens side were already shocked by Aiwas reply, where did he dare to say he learned what thing and returned! Hearing the Queens questioning, Aiwas forehead was already dripping with sweat. However the Queen was a bit happy looking at Aiwas distressed appearance, especially after seeing he was this young, but still knew how to show modesty. This was a really rare quality.
[Actually summoning you back from the East Empire was my wish, Hass Empire needs more personnel right now! How? Whats your opinion on becoming my chamberlain?]
After listening to the Queens gentle voice, Aiwa felt as if he was bathing in a spring wind. When he arrived inside the hall, he had already become restless after looking at her otherworldly beautiful face, merely being hindered by the Queens status; Aiwa didnt dare to peek. Using this opportunity, Aiwa quite naturally lifted his head up glancing towards the Queen; he shockingly felt a gentle and soft emotion inside her deep gaze
[Aiwa wishes to serve Your Majesty!]
Aiwa immediately replied. Looking at the Queens eyes, made Aiwa feel like serving her, he genuinely thought of following her everywhere, looking at her beautiful face, smelling the enchanting fragrance on her body.
Federer, who was waiting for the Queen to grant him an army, quickly thought of using this opportunity to let Aiwa make a fool of himself, and properly recover his face, so he pretended to lightly shrug off his shoulders, shooting a glance towards Aiwa, he said with a smile: [Your Majesty, letting Young Master Aiwa return from the East Empire was a really pitiable matter.]
The Queen wrinkled her brows, asked: [How so?]
No one ever dared to speak of the Queens faults in front of her; however it seems that Federers courage was unexpectedly so large. Looking at the change in the Queens expression, Dolly reached out her hand to pull her older brothers sleeve, to prevent him from speaking, however was Federer ready to listen? This was an opportunity to show his cleverness and quick-wittedness, he couldnt miss it!
So, Federer once again stood up and asserted: [Relying on Young Master Aiwas appearance, Your Majesty ought to let Young Master Aiwa stay at East Empire and be a spy? In case any issue arises between us and East Empire, perhaps a person like Young Master Aiwa could come in handy!]
After speaking, Federer very proudly returned to sit in his original position, giving a look towards Dolly, hoping to receive a look of praise from her face.
Dolly couldnt bear to see Federer harm others moral integrity in this way, her originally set out hand to pull Federers sleeve quickly returned with disgust: [When will proper points come out from older brothers mouth, since you do not know him, what are you doing by taunting him?]
Dolly shot a glance towards Federer, keeping a distance from him.
[Hehe, its nothing. Looking at your army clothes, Young Master Federer is already a Junior Officer, frequently leading troops to battle, I heard that Groote had a son who was very good at battling, an undefeated general; I think that ought to be precisely your distinguished self right? Hass Empire really has an outstanding military service, that it can raise Young Master Federer this kind of talented person using battles.]
Although Aiwa was not familiar with Federer but he already heard his infamous name from his father.
Every time Federer set out for a battle, he was utterly defeated, if it were not for his fathers asylum, he would have already been demoted by the Queen. Today, seeing his pitiable leather bag like appearance, and listening to him sneer at himself, Aiwa couldnt help but speak sarcastically in front of the Queen. Running into this kind of person, if you dont defeat him, he would continue to bully you! This was Aiwas nature, if you dont offend me, I wont offend you, if someone felt like offending me, then I will fiercely offend him!
Although listening to a person belittle her older brother made her heart unhappy, but it seemed to Dolly that, this deficit was purely due to Federers own fault, her heart unexpectedly held support for Aiwa. Although Aiwas age wasnt very high, she could still feel a mature feel from him. She couldnt help but stealthily look towards Aiwa, his handsome appearance when showed off an empires servicemans demeanour instead of counterattacking her older brother, gave rise to a tint of respect and admiration in her gaze.
The Queen thought of speaking a few sentences in behalf of Aiwa, making Federer embarrassed, however, she didnt expect Aiwa would settle it himself. A hidden smile floated across the Queens face. Speaking of the truth, during the lunch with General Kyle yesterday, the Queen was only giving the old general face, not at all thinking to put up much thought about a 17 year old child, but after seeing him now, not only was his figure much different from her imagination of a thin and weak child, but rather excelling in wisdom. In the future, he would surely be capable of becoming the empires personnel, however, she still didnt know what Aiwa learned at the East Empire, but seeing him being modest blindly, she felt this wasnt the right time to ask this.
If it wasnt for giving face to Prime Minister Groote, the Queen would have given this useless and conceited guy a good scolding and send him off. But regarding that beautiful young lady at Federer side, the Queen liked her very much, she wasnt like the other Herman Clan members who always rejoiced in their grandiose deeds to express themselves, but rather had a good and honest heart, it would also appear that she was more intelligent than her older brother Federer.
[Federer, if you dont have any other matter, then you can go. I still have a matter to discuss with your younger sister and Aiwa.]
The Queen impolitely ordered him leave, this move, would make it difficult for Federer to complain to his father, because the Queen had a good opinion regarding Grootes daughter, if Federer spoke of this matter to his father, it would only lead to him getting scolded by Groote Why only your younger sister was liked by the Queen and invited?
[Come, you two come over]
Queen Sofia waved her hand towards Aiwa and Dolly. Aiwa didnt dare to believe the Queen let him approach near her, he was overwhelmed, standing up he came over looking at the two maids at the Queens side. He guessed that these two beautiful women werent simply the Queens maids; they were surely holding the government offices most important position the Queens personal guard.
After Aiwa heard the Queen call him, it didnt matter whether he was or wasnt afraid of those two guards, he went past them, compared to him, Dolly expertly and familiarly followed the Queen as if she frequently came to the palace, unlike him who revered the Queen.
The Queen sized them up once, wearing a smile: While Aiwa and Dolly were still unclear about the Queenss intention they heard the Queens question:
[Are you two engaged to anyone?]
The Queen suddenly asked.
This question was very sudden, Aiwa and Dolly looked at each other, not knowing saying what would be good. However in order to make it clear that she still didnt have her husbands family, Dolly hurriedly said to the Queen: [Dolly isnt engaged!]
Since Aiwa was unaware of the Queens intention, he didnt know what reply would be good. If he directly said he didnt like Dolly, then that would be accepting the plan arranged by the Queen. Dolly was pretty good, but he disliked her conceited older brother, or to say he wasnt fond of their Herman Clan. He learned from his father that, although Kyle and Groote similarly served Hass Empire, due to Queen Sofias influence, these two clans have never gotten along, fighting openly and scheming covertly for many years; they never had friendly relations between them.
In order to avoid matrimony with the Herman Clan, Aiwa intended to speak he was engaged, but this would lead to the charge of cheating the Queen. He couldnt do that.
It can be assumed that, it was better for him to not reply.
After looking at Aiwas distressed appearance, the Queen liked him even more.
[If I act as your matchmaker, are you willing to be husband and wife?]
The Queen wasnt prompted by an impulse today, she had already thought of a good plan, these two persons involved had came together today, so she thought to make it clear for these Clans younger generation, first trapping these two insensible children.
Aiwa looked towards Dolly again, first to look at her behaviour and appearance which was indeed quite upright, fitting to his tastes, after looking at Dollys submissive expression. He determined that this15, 16 year old girl, probably didnt have any scheme she was hiding from Your Majesty Queen.
[Since you dont have any objection, then this matter is settled. I shall notify this to your family heads later, choosing a day to complete this happy occasion. Aiwa, you dont need to come for work today, you can return to General Kyle and consult with him regarding this matter, but I will be waiting to drink at your wedding feast.]
Saying this, the Queen retired herself. Without any better option, Aiwa and Dolly came out.
Coming out of the imperial palace, Dolly didnt seem to have any plans, [Whats to be done?]
She didnt have any opinion and asked Aiwa.
[What whats to be done?]
Aiwa pretended to be silly.
[The elders still dont know this matter, but Her Majesty Queen has already decided this, if the elders dont agree, then whats to be done?]
Dolly naturally knew of the discord between their two clans. It seemed to her that her father wouldnt agree with her marrying Aiwa, to become his wife.
[Feel relieved, whether they like or not, with the Queen acting as the matchmaker, who are they to dare disobey her decree? Hehe, whats not known is whether this path is or isnt bringing grievance to you?]
Aiwa spoke vehemently till now, but now stealthily set about to feel the situation.
[I I will naturally listen to Her Majesty, we are after all her people, how can we disobey her decree?]
Dolly was also fond of Aiwa in her heart; however she was merely hindered by a young ladys shyness and embarrassment, preventing her expressions to come out. By using the Queens decree, she raised her thoughts regarding this matter.
[Im also the same, we are her people, and will naturally listen to her. Hah, I dont know when Ill be able to hold this beauty and return.]
Saying this, Aiwa glanced towards Dolly. After hearing Aiwas words, Dollys face immediately became red due to shyness.
[Since we have already decided to listen and obey Her Majesty Queens command, shouldnt we also take the elders thoughts into consideration?]
Dolly said shyly.
[Anyway, I certainly will come to your Herman Clan later!]
Aiwa said proudly. Then he suddenly remembered that Dolly came in a passenger carriage with Federer, and Federer after getting reprimanded by the Queen, didnt wait and happily returned by himself, completely forgetting about Dolly.[Dolly, since your clan carriage has already returned, let me deliver you back all right?]
Dolly was one affluent familys humble daughter, how could she walk so far on foot? Apparently Federer had completely lost his mind with anger; casting his sister aside, giving a chance to Aiwa.
[Okay.]
Dolly lifted her skirt lightly and moved forward, Aiwa went forward to hold her small hand and pulled her on top of his carriage.
Following her older brother for the first time, and apart from her father, Dolly had never gotten on a carriage along with a male before, this made little Dolly feel uneasy, she didnt dare to relax her body, acting somewhat stiff. Aiwa reached out his hand towards her bee waist, and gently said:[Dont be so nervous, I am not an outsider, I am your future husband!]
After looking at Dollys adorable small crimson face, Aiwas hand didnt feel like leaving, his tepid hand not only warmed Dolly, but also caused one kind of youthful restlessness to rise in her. She gently looked towards Aiwa, and stiffly smiled, she liked this boy, however she wasnt familiar with him, therefore her heart inevitably held some misgivings.
Aiwa silently watched Dollys pretty face, looking at her fiercely moving up and down swelling chest; resembling great waves. A girly fragrance came from her body, almost making Aiwas beastly desire emerge again.
But they were after all on top of a carriage, he could only hug that slim body of Dolly tightly, exerting all his strength to sniff her bodys aroma which could easily causing a man to get infatuated.
Dolly didnt struggle, after Aiwas powerful arm finished hugging her, she even felt that hand on her waist reach under her breasts, her heart resembled a frightened deer right now, her faint breathing voice was vividly heard by Aiwa.
Right now she couldnt disobey Aiwa, like how she couldnt disobey the Queens decree, if only it wasnt too excessive, she would accept anything he did! Who let herself be promised to Aiwa by the Queen!
At this time, two hunting dogs suddenly appeared on top of the wide avenue, the coachman immediately pulled the carriages reins causing the carriage to stop. At this moment, Aiwa and Dolly who were immersed inside their happiness didnt notice this, due to the huge inertia, their two bodies rapidly fell forward, Aiwa acting on his instinct to protect this girl, quickly settled himself, one hand grasping Dollys bosom, holding her chest in his hands, groping those petite breasts with his palms.
Although Dolly was frightened momentarily; she was safe and sound, merely she was a bit reluctant to let Aiwas hand relinquish from groping her breasts.
[Im sorry, Young Master, just now I didnt take notice of those two wretched hunting dogs!]
The Coachman immediately apologized towards Aiwa.
[Dont mind it, keep going.]
The reason why Aiwa didnt blame his coachman was because he was very grateful for this very small mishap in his heart, using this excuse; he felt Dollys petite and adorable breasts.
Although separated by dressed clothes, Dollys those soft and ample flexible breasts made him fascinated, just now it was Dolly who was faintly breathing, and now it was Aiwas turn to release a coarse gasp.
[Thank you, Aiwa.]
Dolly gratefully looked towards Aiwa, if he hadnt stepped in time to stop her falling body, she would have definitely been marred by a scar, a girls appearance was precisely her asset, an asset a man would forever be fond of. She didnt have the intention of staying at a ministers house after marrying, being lonely and receiving her husbands cold shoulder. She wanted her man to like her for a lifetime, treasure her. Right now she didnt dislike Aiwas big hand on her chest, rather she thought of it as one kind of happiness, so she leaned her body on top of Aiwas body, sticking her face towards Aiwas chest. The Coachman could only face towards the front of the carriage, and wouldnt turn around to look at the master; therefore she dared to act boldly like this.
However the Prime Ministers house quickly arrived, this made Aiwa feel a little dejected.
Hearing the rumbling sound of the carriage, Federer appeared from inside. He thought the Queen had sent someone to return his sister. Before when he was sulking, he forgot that his younger sister was still inside the palace, so he prepared to receive her from the carriage.
After seeing his younger sister return with Kyles son, that abominable Aiwa and not the Queens personnel, also looking at Aiwa holding his younger sister Dolly, Federer eyeballs almost popped out!
[Let her go!]
Federer bellowed.
Aiwa laughed, letting go of Dolly. After getting off first, he held Dolly bringing her down. Dolly simply hated Federer for forgetting about her and returning home alone, so she didnt even glance at Federer. But just now at the house door, the reason she lied in Aiwas embrace wasnt to deliberately anger Federer, rather it was because she was unwilling to depart Aiwas hug. He was a good guy; a person worthy of receiving her entire lifetimes adoration.
After saying thanks, Dolly turned around thinking of returning.
[Dolly, you still havent kissed me.]
Aiwa stood there and said confidently.
After hearing Aiwas words, Dolly turned around, walked until in front of Aiwa, she stood on tiptoe and held her small mouth up.
This scene let Federer become foolish, making his jaw drop down, a thousand jin young lady, was going to kiss a feuding clans son? How could this be possible!
TLN: thousand jin: coming from a riches and fame home
Aiwas hand held Dollys bee waist inside his arm, while his other hand raised her small face, then he kissed her sexy and frail fragrant lips. The reason why he was so calm was, because he judged, even a presidential palaces Young Master wont be able to advance and separate them, as he didnt have any worry about his status.
TLN: Raw says he was worried about his identity but according to the flow it should be he wasnt worried so the last line was modified.
When Aiwa was kissing Dollys lips, Dolly was still a bit nervous and felt awkward, her small tongue didnt agree to come out from her pearly white teeth. After Aiwa explored his tongue forward provoking her lips twice, Dolly suddenly extended her small lilac tongue and intertwined it with Aiwas tongue, at the same time she held Aiwas waist with her two hands..
Aiwa didnt give her a tempest like kiss, but rather gave her a lingering and delicate kiss, a little sample which prevented Dollys nimble small tongue from returning.
Federer couldnt bear to look anymore, letting a feuding clans son kiss his younger sister in front of him; this was extraordinary shame and humiliation for him! But he could only stand there and turn his face around.
[See you later, Dolly!]
[See you later, Aiwa!]
Aiwa turned around, jumping on top of his carriage.
At this time, Federer heard the two peoples voice and turned back, looking at Aiwa jumping on top of the carriage, he abused roundly: [You bastard! I will tear you!]
[Goodbye, Federer, I will come to visit you another day!]
Aiwa laughed for a long time, he quickly made his way towards the path leading to the imperial palace. He could only return home through this path. A direct avenue between these two clans didnt exist; a person could only walk through a rugged lane.
Federer thought of overtaking this stinky youngster who took small advantages of his younger sister and hit him once, but what made his heart ache was, that Dolly held his arm, so he could only stand there and stamp with fury.
From Dollys fond attachment to his body and that kiss, Aiwa could make out that she liked him very much.
It was indeed a fascinating affair; two individual feuding clan children fall in love with each other. He didnt know whether or not his father would fight against this marriage after finding out about it, as his father didnt have any good opinion regarding the Herman Clan.
