The whole kingdom was shocked by the words of Arthur, both Paladin and the soldiers, especially the King.
His eyes and face had become red from restraining anger, besides the veins were clearly visible on the old man's face.
He must be very angry that the plan to kill Arthur did not work, he thinks that Arthur is a bad boy who came out of the Kingdom.
So he thought Arthur would take the treasure or something so the King could kill him after he had determined the treasure.
But, it is unexpected that Arthur actually chose Fiona as a gift than others, if they are serious about being fiancee then it means that Arthur became the next king candidate and he will not be killed.
After all Fiona, her beloved daughter will definitely not be silent, but this all certainly depends on the answer from Fiona herself.
The king smiled knowing this fact.
That's right it all depends on Fiona, if she turns down the eye it means I still have a chance to kill Midnight residents..
I will never forgive their families, in the name of Rosemary she must die..
The King seemed to have a deep hatred for the Midnight family, this was a natural thing considering that basically their families hated each other a long time ago.
Because it was also the King wanted to kill Arthur, but the response from his daughter was a little disappointed.
"A-a-that's..."
He seemed to be trying to say something but due to the overwhelming embarrassment, the remark did not come out a single broken. Even his body continued to tremble and redden until it raised smoke above his head.
He was very surprised at the sudden words from Arthur and of course he must have misunderstood.
"Fuck! How dare you want a princess!"
The paladin hissed angrily and raised his sword from his shoulder, he felt a tremendous fury at the words of Arthur.
With the movement ready, the Paladin was about to attack Arthur, willing to execute immediately. Arthur was almost as he began to hold a sword on his shoulder, preparing for the impending attack.
As they both exuded a battle aura and the King shouted.
"Stop with this fight!"
The remark managed to make the blond-haired Paladin stop stepping, she was basically a service to this kingdom of course she could not act at will.
While Arthur was a little surprised, he did not expect the King to stop him.
What does the old man really want? If you wanted to kill me, it was a good opportunity...
If only the King hadn't stopped the Paladin it was likely that Arthur was dead by now. He was not as strong as Shutaru who controlled his body, he could even only use one technique out of a total of seven techniques.
The probability of winning is zero percent.
"What exactly are you planning to do for my son!? Why did you choose him as a gift."
It's a good opportunity if Arthur is honest he'll most likely be forgiven and all goes well.
"I want the Midnight and Rosemary families back together!"
Like a miracle the word made everyone surprised. Peace between two works, speech that is too idealistic.
"Want peace? No kidding! Your family killed the first King of— Jack Rosemary on the charge of the destroyed Sablier. Even without clear evidence, and you want us to make peace!?"
Events like Sablier and the murder are all Elli's fault, he's the cause of all that misunderstanding.
"This incident was a misunderstanding... And I want to justify that misunderstanding."
"Eargument error? What does that mean!?"
"For now I can't explain one hundred percent yet. But believe me if you accept this offer, our family will be united in the future without conflict."
Arthur cannot say everything about Elli, the resurrection of the demon lord, the reality of Sablier, the origin of Umbral Plague's disease, and the mission as heir to destroy the seven fragments of the demon king's body.
If he told me everything, the world would be shocked.
Hiding everything was also a duty as the eighth heir.
The king held his chin trying to think and digest everything that Arthur said and in the end decided on an opinion.
"Alright, I've said to give anything so I have no right to argue."
Even though it looks like the King remains the King he still has his pride, especially for such a thing as a promise.
"A-a-me and her a-would be tu-fiancee?"
It seemed that Fiona was still unable to accept the reality, she was trembling and muttering.
"It's not like..."
Fiona glanced at Arthur and quickly blushed, her eyes spinning rapidly and heartbeats pounding.
"I-i-it's... I'm..."
Before Fiona could answer to be a shorting, her head was steamy and she fainted.
He should almost never communicate with many people and is now a fiancee for people he just met, of course this causes the girl's mind is short.
"Oi, Fiona!"
"Miss!"
Arthur and the paladin shouted in a compact manner, it seems that they did not expect the event to happen.
While it was a face full of cynicism from the King slightly raised his lips.
Arthur Midnight, huh? It's not like I believe her, but I hope she manages to fill the hole in my daughter's heart..
"Oi, hold on Fiona!"
Arthur shook the body of the girl who fainted, he became very panicked.
The king stood up from his singa and walked towards Arthur.
"Take him to the room."
Arthur nodded his head and held the girl on his shoulders.
...***...
In a spacious room that had a luxurious impression, Fiona fell asleep in a wide and white mattress while Arthur sat nearby observing her condition.
Wait a minute so where I rest is Fiona's room..
Just as Arthur had thought, Fioana's room was the place where he had rested before.
"Is he not awake yet?"
The king opened the room door, but this time he was seen wearing normal clothes.
"Yes, he seems very surprised at what I said. After this I have to apologize."
"That's not necessary!"
Arthur opened his eyes wide, he looked at the king who was now standing beside him.
"What does that mean?"
"Originally you know Fiona is a person who is almost the same as you. This is because Fiona herself has always been the center of the criminal's sights."
"Children are afraid that when they are with Fiona, she says she is the child of disaster, if anyone approaches her then that person will accept misfortune."
This is very similar to what Arthur experienced, so he bit his lips and looked at Fiona with a face full of regret.
He never thought that the third daughter of Rosemary fared the same as him even though it was not as bad as Arthur.
At least Fiona still has a place to rest while Arthur runs a rest area even people who are willing to accept it almost nothing.
"So then Fiona must have experienced something difficult" said Arthur.
"Yes, that's why I hope a little bit that you can fill an empty heart. Even if I don't believe you."
Silent. After the King said this, the atmosphere became quiet until Arthur finally opened his mouth.
"What is Fiona's power? Why did he get targeted by Vidice?"
This was the most troubling thing for Arthur, which is why he asked that question.
The king remained silent for a few seconds, but finally he decided to answer.
"Do you know the seven demon king fragments?"
Arthur opened his eyes wide, he certainly knew about it because his own mission was to destroy the seven fragments.
Don't tell me Fiona's ability is related to that...
