This rose was called Blooming Rose. And just the name itself, it was blooming. It would become bigger and bigger at the master\'s will. Not just that, it was compatible with plant-type users so the princess was very compatible with it. If there would be defects, it would probably be the rose not accepting the princess as its master. But, there was only a tiny chance of this happening.

When the Blooming Rose was on the princess\' hand, she couldn\'t help but feel the abnormal beating of her heart. It was like she was looking at a man who she fell in love at first sight. The rose was just small, but you would see how beautiful it was upfront. After which, the stem of the rose suddenly extended towards all sides of the princess\' palm. She didn\'t know what was this but she knew it wasn\'t a bad thing.

"The Blooming Rose is accepting you as its master." The king clapped his skeletal hands and praised her, "Congratulations. Now, the. Blooming Rose is officially yours."

There was a situation that if the treasure refused to acknowledge someone as its master, the king couldn\'t help it but let that someone choose another treasure. After all, he couldn\'t just make the treasure be forced to acknowledge someone they didn\'t want to. Furthermore, as all treasures here have sentience, it was the ultimate prerequisite to get an item.

The princess bowed in respect for the king. Though her position was higher than everyone else, the king deserved this respect. In addition, she wanted to show the king that she wasn\'t willing to offend him in any way.

As an intelligent king since day one, King Uranasia had understood this very well. But he didn\'t say something else aside from letting the princess do the respect.

"Now that everything is settled, I guess we have to go now." Jin Rou couldn\'t waste his time here. The hunt was going to happen soon and that was the best time to see the Emperor. Thus, he needed to have the utmost preparations before that. He couldn\'t just underestimate an imperial family who ruled this universe for over hundred billions of years.

"Ah, so soon?" The king looked disappointed. But he knew that Jin Rou must have some urgent matters to attend to, "Alright then. But do you have a destination in mind?"

"I don\'t know yet. But I need to add more attack power for myself. After all, my enemy isn\'t someone to joke around." Jin Rou answered.

It was the truth. Though Jin Rou was already powerful, he couldn\'t just belittle the Prime Family. After all, he also believed that there might be a law living in the family. Thus, he needed much more power to add his chances of winning. And of course, under the premise of they were really the culprits from what happened in their universe, he wouldn\'t offend them yet.

"Oh, you want to increase your attack power? Then, I can recommend a place to you!" The king was glad to help him.

"Really?" Jin Rou was surprised. He knew that the king was speaking the truth so he couldn\'t help but feel elated.

"Naturally." The king smiled, "After you are out from here, go west and ask around where is the Immortal Pond. And after you reach it, just told him that I recommended the place to you in my name. The guardian there would give me face for sure and let you."

Hearing this, the princess almost jumped from fright, "Immortal Pond?! You want us to go that freaky place? I\'m out!"

"It\'s not a place for someone so weak like you, of course. So you better be left out." The king laughed as he insulted the princess with a tad bit amount.

"What is the Immortal Pond?" Jin Rou asked.

The princess almost spurted blood from infuriation but she still chose to answer Jin Rou, "The Immortal Pond is a place that even birds don\'t want to shit. It is notorious for killing so many zeniths who tried to enter that place. In fact, even a 12-crown zenith was fatally injured there and had a narrow escape from death! Thus, my family set it as off-limits and no one will enter the place unless permitted."

"I see. I still want to go there, though." Jin Rou didn\'t care about how strong it was. As long as it could increase his strength, he didn\'t mind at all, "If there will be a fight, then much better."

"Are you listening to me?!" The princess was more livid than the previous, "That place is very very dangerous! Even if we say that you have the capabilities, entering it is still a hard matter. My family has been observing the pond for so long now and for sure, they can detect if someone enters the place as they stationed a family member there."

"You are the princess. Though you\'re useless, you must have at least the authority to let me enter the pond, no?" Jin Rou smirked. It looked like he wasn\'t willing to let this chance go. "Now is the time to prove to me that you aren\'t practically useless."

"You!" The princess, who has been revered by the masses, felt her blood rushing upwards and eventually spat a mouthful of blood. This man could anger her to death. What a skill!

"You think I\'ll help you? Dream on! Go and break the door if you really want to." The princess gritted her teeth and said. She wasn\'t willing to risk it.

"Of course you\'ll help me. After all, you owe me so much that even paying with your life won\'t be enough." Jin Rou chuckled and said, "So, you have no choice but to help me. Unless you want it that \'way\', hmm?"

"..." The princess was so speechless by this cool shamelessness. What owe him? He just chose a treasure for her and the debt wouldn\'t amount to this extent that she needed to risk it! All this time, all she received from Jin Rou was insults of how useless she was and whatnot.

Nevertheless, she still agreed in the end after more threats.
