Chapter 1366

Be Her Guide

“Who are you looking for?” Arielle asked the strangers in Ustranasion. We are the only residents here.
Did they come looking for us?

At that moment, Dylan was so touched that he could barely speak in coherent sentences. The sound of
his daughter’s voice rendered him speechless. Dylan’s silence prompted Sybil to step forward and
snap Dylan out of his daze.

“I-I came here to look for you. Thank you for traveling all the way here to teach us your medicinal
skills,” Dylan stuttered as he tampered down his excitement.

“It’s my pleasure.” Dylan’s Ustranasion reply and understanding caught Arielle by surprise. Deep down,
she couldn’t help but feel slightly guilty. After all, searching for her father was the true reason she came
here. Instead, she used teaching as an excuse to cover up the truth.

Nevertheless, Arielle was determined to make the most of her time here and teach them to the best of
her abilities. It’d be up to them to learn as much as they could from her.

Suddenly, Dylan thought of how Arielle had opened the door before he knocked and asked, “Were you
planning to head out?”

“Turlen is sealed off from the outside world. Now that I’m here, I plan on immersing myself in its culture.
This way, I won’t have any lingering regrets when I leave.” Arielle glanced at Dylan as she spoke.

Somehow, she found him strangely familiar. It felt as if they’d met before.

Upon hearing Arielle’s explanation, Dylan couldn’t help but rejoice in his decision to come looking for
her.



“May I have the honor of being your guide?” he asked her with a hopeful look.

Dylan was dying to spend more time with Arielle. Since such an opportunity had presented itself to him,
he seized it without a second thought.

Sybil panicked when he overheard Dylan’s offer. It will spell trouble for His Majesty and Princess if the
queen mother and Her Majesty find out.

But when Sybil caught sight of Dylan’s hopeful and eager gaze, he couldn’t bring himself to quash the
latter’s hopes. Oh well, I’ll let His Majesty be.

On the other hand, Arielle was taken aback by Dylan’s offer. He wants to be my guide?

For a few moments, Arielle mulled over her thoughts. Wait a minute; it wouldn’t hurt to have a guide
with me. After all, I’m not too familiar with this place. It’d be great to have a translator by my side in the
event that I don’t understand Ustranasion. Yet, he looks like someone from a high ranking. Wouldn’t it
be a waste of his time if he became my guide?

“If you have nothing else occupying you at the moment, it’d be great to have you as my guide,” Arielle
replied with a warm smile.

When Dylan first suggested the idea of being Arielle’s guide, he couldn’t help but feel anxious. To her, I
must be nothing but a random stranger. I wouldn’t be surprised if she rejected me.

Unexpectedly, Arielle agreed. Her simple reply sent Dylan over the moon. The happiness he first
experienced when he gained power in Turlen paled in comparison to the giddiness that Dylan was
feeling right then.

“Are you heading out alone? Or will you be accompanied by your parents?” Truthfully, Dylan wanted to
spend some alone time with Arielle. This way, he could strengthen their bond as father and daughter. In



the future, Arielle would be less likely to shun him if their relationship came to light.

Despite Dylan’s wishes, he was afraid that the queen mother and Her Majesty might find out about their
exchange. My own desires are not worth the risk of having our relationship exposed. It’d be best if her
parents tagged along. Their presence would dispel any suspicion that people might have towards us.

The corners of Arielle’s lips upturned into a smile. How could I possibly have fun alone and abandon
my parents, who accompanied me here to Turlen?
