Reunion with Two Men (2)

The steps to Audience were not light. It’s a time she’s been waiting for so long, but why is her heart heavy?

“Then, will procrastination be resolved now?”

“If it was a marriage to another country, it would have already ended.”

Sein began to provide information about princes from other countries who had been alone from the side as if she had not given up.

She tried to attract her attention somehow by showing a well-painted portrait, but as a result, it was a failure.

“Don’t let anyone in.”

“No way, me too……?”

“Including you.”

Perhaps she was a little shocked, but she opened her eyes wide as if protesting against her with a slightly open mouth. Mary ignored her, entered the room, and closed the door.

Looking at him standing up and greeting her with courtesy, she sat on the chair opposite him and looked at Arthur.

“Talk about everything that’s happened so far.”

“It’s going to be a longer story than I thought.”

“It doesn’t matter how long it takes, so there should be no lies in what you say.”

Arthur started with the story of going to Viblant. Entering the store he went with her, he called out the fairies she had hidden.

Free Arthur gave them the souls he had collected and obtained information.

“They must have signed a contract, but they helped you so easily?”

Arthur smiled meaningfully at her doubtful voice.

“They were forced to give in to power rather than contract. Simply put, you can think of it as different from our contract.”

“Keep going.”

“As I’ve already heard, they were Vibrant, and Vibrant was Knox, so you just have to cut off what’s connected to them.”

“You, a human being, broke the contract with demons?”

As expected, there was no trust. The Fairies followed Arthur well, but they were beings who tried to eat her. It means that they were not very friendly to humans.

Maybe he didn’t like what started with Mary.

“Do you remember when they tried to take you to a strange place?”

She’s never told Arthur. But he told her as if he knew everything. How can she forget that she was almost taken away by the Fairies?

“I just opened the door. It took time to get out of the room because we went in together.”

“If you open the door.”

“Where they used to be. I just sent them back there.”

Is it hell where the demons were? No matter what space it was, it was unpleasant according to the feeling she felt for a while at that time.

“Did Nox leave without a hitch?”

“……If he had, you wouldn’t have been this angry at me.”

Nox, that punk.

Until the end, he didn’t change.

“Well, I’ve lost a little bit…….”

He didn’t answer what he lost, and she didn’t ask either. She thought she should.

“I heard that there are many marriages from other countries.”

“Even so, he’s just a prince.”

Would you care whether it was a prince or an Emperor? Of course, she didn’t mean to get married either…… If it went into Arthur’s ear, it must be Sein.

“Is it because you didn’t break it off?”

“I forgot because I was busy with other things, but it didn’t mean anything else.”

Arthur’s heartbreaking words sadly touched her. She said coldly that she had no intention.

But at Arthur’s words, she collapsed again.

“That’s enough. I thought I wouldn’t be able to stand it if I were abandoned again.”

“Do you deserve that?”

“I’m not qualified, so I’ll have to try. From the beginning again.”

Arthur held his chin and laughed at her. Why doesn’t she get angry even though he’s being shameless?

Honestly, she thought it was a relief, and it wasn’t bad at this moment when he lived like this and came to her eyes and talked to her like this again.

Maybe she really went crazy.

The heart that had gone all the way to the bottom rang again. She closed her lips tightly with his bright smile.

Not only was it not enough to constantly talk about marriage, each country sent the first-ranked princes to the Arpen Empire under the pretext of a banquet.

Arthur’s Viblant estate officially disappeared, but his existence itself remained the same. It was just going back to its place as it was in the original work.

The place of the Grand Duchy where one may not come out if they don’t find it properly.

He was only a villain in the original work, but not more or less, just that kind of existence.

“Your Majesty, we cannot kick out those who attend the banquet to celebrate.”

The nobles who are worried that she will show displeasure with the princes of other countries say while reading the air.

‘Even though I already told them what I meant..….’

She was the Emperor of this country, and no other country gave her a prince. People from other countries were excited to let their son go and benefit.

She didn’t stop even though she knew what it meant to send their child.

“Do I have to pay attention to that?”

She narrowed her forehead by tapping the chair. Fredio pressed his temple hard as if his head was pounding. She can’t kick him out, and she can’t neglect him, so only annoying things happen.

“We can’t back down this time!”

“That’s right, Your Majesty. Of course, there is no reason for the Arpen Empire to have a marriage alliance with other countries or be a government, but diplomatic relations between countries are not that simple.”

She knows. Everything is intertwined with interests, and the Emperor should not be caught up in private emotions. Even so, she can’t help but hate it.

“No, I’ll think about it. Do you want me to accept that kings from other countries are blind and send princes who have just become adults to me?”

To have a kid who smells like milk as a consort, they did not covet the empty office position and kept saying that they would become a Consort.

‘This must mean that someone is using their hands.’
