I Have Seven Dragon Souls In a cultivation world

Chapter 140 - I’m Not Spending My Life With Her!

"In my opinion, the only words you can use to describe her are an annoying little shit! God forbid I actually spend the rest of my days with that woman!"

Jarred was a bit displeased by Dante's use of language and bluntly spoke to him.

"Well, tough!"

"In this world, barely anyone is privileged enough to marry whoever they want and besides, you're the one who forced yourself into this situation. 

Who told you to go provoke 2 princes and earn the ire of the royal family in just a few days?"

But even after hearing jarred words, Dante just couldn't accept it!

"Okay, but even if I need to marry a princess, who says it needs to be her? 

there's countless royal Princess so I doubt out of all them, she was your only option

"she may not have been the only one," said Jarred 

"But she is by far the most powerful one!"

"As the granddaughter of a living legend like Hendrix Invidus, she was already quite an influential figure.

But now if we take into account the chemistry between the Minister of war and The Dragon Son of War, it was only natural we chose her"

"Think about it Dante, the Dragon son of War and the Minister of War from the same family!

Together the two of you could theoretically have the power to play a major role in the lives of almost 70% of the kingdom's generals and soldiers from their growth in the academy all the way up until their eventual deployment!"

Seeing that even this wasn't enough to convince Dante, he slyly added.

"Besides, even if you don't like her, who says she's the only one you spend time with? I'm sure you'll be able to take on a few concubines in the future, so your opinion of the princess won't even matter much."

....

Hearing Jarred's words, Dante only sneered.

It was clear from the doubtful look on his face even he himself didn't believe what he was saying 

 "Grandfather, please, I'm not a fool." Said Dante.

"There's no way I'd ever believe what you just said right now.

Even if Levina herself didn't care and let me get a concubine, do you really think Minister Hendrix would let me treat his granddaughter like that?" 

"The day I publicly go .

and take a concubine is the day I wake up to an army outside of my house!"

Jarred just awkwardly smiled as he heard Dante's words.

He also knew that as long as Minister Hendrix still had his head screwed on right, he would do everything in his power to prevent Dante from getting a concubine.

But even if he knew this, he still had to try to convince Dante in some way or the other.

He at least had to try.

But fortunately for Jarred, eventually, after much persuading, Dante decided that he was really left with no other 

choice other than to go through with the marriage.

He was already in a 

He was already in a tough spot with royal family and had little choice to even choose.

Besides, Princess Levina had said it herself.

What happened between them was no marriage, it was just a simple exchange between two parties.

 Eventually, after much 

Eventually, after much persuading, Dante decided he could do nothing other than go through with the marriage.

he was already in a tough spot with royal family and had little choice to choose.

Besides, Princess Levina had said it herself. 

What happened between them was no marriage, it's was just a simple exchange between two parties.

once Levina got what she wanted and was calmly inherited the throne there would no need for her and Dante to be married any longer.

He just had to hold on for a few years and then he would be free!

now when Dante put it like that the marriage didn't seem as and he could only silently accept his fate....

Slowly the carriage made its way back to Dante's residence.

By the time the carriage pulled up outside Dante's house, the orange hue of the sunset was already visible in the sky. 

Vincent looked around as he stretched his tired old body.

lloking at the setting sun in the sky Vincent realised that he had spent much more time at the Invidus clan mansion than he had expected and then turned towards Jarred.

"It's getting late brother I should really be heading back now I still have many things to do"

hearing this Jarred didn't keep Vincent any longer and just waved him goodbye.

but before Vincent left he turn towards Dante and spoke

"Boy you better go to bed early, I heard that tomorrow is going to be your first practical lesson. I made sure your class is full of talented students so I've told your instructor to speed up his teaching process so there's a surprise waiting for you"

"surprise?" Asked Dante 

"what of this so called surprise."seeing Dante's questions, Vincent just smiled mysteriously as he replied.

noe it wouldn't be much of a surprise if told you"

with that Vincent took of into the sky flying back in the direction of the academy.

after watching Vincent leave, Jarred turned towards Dante and spoke.

"you heard the man. It's time you go to bed a prepare for tomorrow "

" What?!" Replied Dante in disbelief 

"you can't seriously expect me to go to bed this early!"

"I most definitely can. " said Jarred stoically 

"You seem to be forgetting that for all your strength, you're still a little boy. you still need to get some proper sleep to stay healthy."

Dante couldn't believe what he was hearing.

Did Jarred actually believe that nonsense?

But before Dante could even say anything, Jarred continued speaking

"Don't think you can fool me Dante. Although you may be a cultivator, you're only still in the Martial Novice realm." Martial novice cultivators are only slightly different from normal humans,Although you need less sleep than normal people , you still need to get some sleep."

Seeing Jarred's firm position on this one Dante knew that no amount of arguing would ever change his mind.

Dante could only sigh as he headed into the house and towards his room.
