Not the Novel World
46. Father and Son

Seint stared long at Lilian's chariot. There were a lot of questions that popped into his head about the girl. Since he decided to be close to the girl there have been many events that made him more curious.

"Your Majesty is asking you to leave the room immediately." Artem said casually because there were only the two of them.

"I've been wondering since when Lilian could understand that foreign language." Seint.

"During this time Lilian did often give a lot of surprises for everyone." Artem.

"This time is different." Seint.

"What's different?" Ask Artem.

"She's different anyway." Seint.

"Of course..since the beginning wasn't Lilian different in your eyes?" Artem said teasingly.

"You mean?" Asked Seint with a sharp look.

"From the beginning wasn't Lilian special to you? there are many girls who try to approach you but you always do not like their existence but it is different when Lilian approached you...you even gave her the status of lover." Artem lengthened.

"Then?" Seint asked with a look of horror to Artem.

"Then..." Artem's words paused when he saw Seint's unfriendly look. "Then you'd better go see His Majesty." Artem said as he gulped nervously.

Seint stared intently at Artem for a while then walked towards his father's room.

"He always looked at me like that when he was upset again." Artem said horrified.

Seeing Seint's arrival, the two guards in front of his father's room immediately opened the door for him. After Seint entered the room he could see his father sitting with a riled face.

"Honor Your Majesty." Said Seint courteously while bowing his body in a respectful manner.

"Ahhh you don't need to speak formally to me, here are just the two of us.ayo sit down." Said King Reinal while pointing at a chair that was in front of him.

Seint walked up the chair his father had appointed. After making sure Seint had completely sat down from his seat, King Reinal began to open his voice.

"Do you know since when Lilian can understand foreign languages?" King Reinal asked curiously.

"No." Answer Seint flat.

King Reinal exhaled slowly. "I've heard lately that you've been close to her, which is why I called you here." King Reinal.

"Near does not mean you know everything." Say it with his flat expression.

King Reinal again sighed. "Dad asked you this because I care about you." King Reinal.

"meaning?" Asked Seint while frowning.

"Dad thought you liked Lilian..." Said King Reinal while observing the look on his Son's face. "Didn't you notice Mr Zafran's angry face before he left the party hall?" Said King Reinal recalling the incident earlier.

"Then?" Ask Seint.

"Father deliberately held the party to welcome the arrival of Mr. Zafran, Elmore Kingdom several times sent letters to Father...the contents of the letter wanted cooperation between the two kingdoms and if Father agreed then the western region would be the place of their headquarters." King Reinal.

"so..." Seint.

"Dad already predicted there will be a commotion that will occur at the party.there will be a camp that agrees and a camp that does not agree but I do not expect that the situation will be as complicated as before...Dad can barely even dampen the mood if there's no Lilian." Said King Reinal then gazing solemnly at Seint.

"Father strongly agrees with Lilian's opinion, if Father approves of that cooperation then there are many consequences for us in the future...If they build their headquarters in the west there it will be easy for them to enter and exit our kingdom easily." Obviously King Reinal.

"A few days ago Dad found an item that entered our kingdom without permission, it was an antique urn containing plant-killing medicine...those items were sold wildly in the market and that made Dad even more astonished how they could escape the border checks." Obviously King Reinal.

"Has the mastermind been found?" Ask Seint.

"Then from that.smuggling the goods was done in a very neat way...I've sent a lot of people to investigate in more depth but until now I haven't got any information related to the smuggling." King Reinal.

Seing gave a brief nod of light to the information given by his father. "Could those things have come through the west?" Seint asked suspiciously.

"Yes...Father had thought like that.The condition of the region in the western region of our kingdom is very strange...there have been many efforts that Father has made to make the area prosperous but the condition of the land there seems to refuse for all those efforts...there have been several times people there have planted different plants but the results still fail." King Reinal.

"Have you investigated further?" Ask Seint.

"Yes...Father was investigating this matter secretly.when the kingdom of Elmore proposed his cooperation Father had started to suspect.that's why Dad held a party to see the reaction of the invited guests present...seeing the disappointed look of Mr. Zafran before he came out made Dad more sure but here I worry about Lilian." King Reinal.

"Why with him?" Ask Seint curiously.

"The girl was born as one of the genius children in our kingdom, the intelligence and thought of the girl was very broad even though she was very young...it would also surely bring calamity to itself." King Reinal.

"I mean Dad?" Ask Seint.

"While in the hall there were a lot of dislike gazes directed at the girl, that's why Dad called you here...I heard that you had a special relationship with him." King Reinal.

"Will you oppose it if we have a relationship?" Ask Seint flatly.

"No...Father with Duke Marven has a very close relationship...Since long ago I wanted to betroth you two.let alone Lilian long after chasing you it makes Dad more and more want to unite you both." King Reinal said seriously.

"Lilian didn't come after me because he liked me." Seint.

"really ? didn't he always follow you anywhere? Lilian even persuaded the Empress to betroth you two." King Reinal.

"That's because Lilian wanted to upset Miss Raina." Seint.

"Raina? marquis Gaustark's son?" Ask King Reinal to make sure.

"Yes...Lilian had many abilities, one day I was caught by her watching her training archery for fear that I might leak her secret Lilian began to follow me wherever I went." Obviously Seint's long.

"Then what now? does he still not like you?" King Reinal asked curiously.

"Either...Lilian was a girl who had a very hard thought to guess." Said Seint while exhaling softly.

"Didn't you also have complicated thoughts? Look at you fit in with him." King Reinal said fishing.

"really?" Ask Seint seriously.

King Thanos opened his eyes several times to see the look on his son's face. "Yes.you are very compatible with him.if you are next to the girl...I don't have to worry about him anymore because you're gonna take care of that girl." King Reinal.

"Totally so." Seint.

"You should go often to his residence who knows the girl at any time in danger...or if I need to ask Duke Marven for a special room for you to work there how?" King Reinal's words are pumping on his son.

Seint stared lazily at his father. "I'd better get some rest soon." He said then he walked out of the room to his room.

King Reinal laughed softly at his son's behavior. Since being close to Lilian, her son has been opening up to others. It also made him more confident in his choice.
