Next, the show went well. The room was crowded with happy cheers despite the fact that they wanted to throw protest cheers in the back. The guests present, namely the people and nobles, are welcome to enjoy the dishes available.

There also looks Steven who is holding back his anger so as not to enslave. For a moment, he calmed his mind.

A figure of green sliced man seemed to sweep the view around with jelly. Smile on his lips when he finds the person he is looking for. Steven walked up to the man. This was actually the first time he had met that person. However, Wim~'s subordinate Steven~ has investigated and provided the man's painting.

"Duke Carroll." Exclaimed Steven. The blond middle-aged man who was flanking the glass of wine interrupted. Duke Carrol raised one of his eyebrows.

Steven was approaching the Duke. The man named Steven was wearing formal clothing with many plaques attached to his shirt.

"What's wrong?" Duke Carrol asked briefly. Before making his point, the man saluted him respectfully.

Agatha who was sitting next to Lucius accidentally saw the sight. His forehead is wrinkled. The girl in the red dress was worried about the content of the conversation Steven was going to tell Duke Carrol. He wanted to stand up and approach them, but just getting up from the position, his hand had been intercepted by Lucius. As a result, Agatha did not follow.

"Look at Master Duke, what if we slightly shift the position from this space. I want to talk about something." Steven with a smile. The Duke seemed to be fusing his brows. Although not familiar with Steven , but Duke can make sure that the man is quite ranked. Evidently with the courage of Steven in greeting himself.

"Yes well." Duke's heart is short.

They moved away from the nobles who were lulled in the banquet. The Duke did not take off the wine in his hand on the grounds that he liked it too much.

Steven and Duke Carrol chose to be in a corner of the room that was quiet and quite covered by curtains.

"So?"

"First, introduce me Steven de Gerald. Prince of Rhodes." Steven was a little awkward with such a formal speaking style. But no matter what, he must instill a good image in front of Duke Carrol.

"I don't know if this place or time is suitable for discussing my purpose." He paused his sentence. The man slid right to left to make sure no one was eavesdropping. "I'd like to propose to your daughter." Imbabnya by slowing the tone of voice.

"Well?!" Almost the Duke hangs. Lately, there's been no application to Agatha. Just because the girl had already had a bad reputation among the nobles, was very different from Anastasia who was always being targeted by the suitors. Even the Duke had to rely on her standing in order for Agatha to become the Crown Princess. But now, the man in front of him wanted to propose to his daughter.

"Are you sure? The girl has already announced her engagement and will become Crown Princess of Corinth." Duke Carrol said.

"Yes, I'm so sure."

Hearing that, Duke Carrol sighed with a brain that kept thinking . "I've heard that the Crown Prince of the Rhodes region is a descendant of concubines, obviously it violates the existing rules. Where the descendants of concubines should not be allowed to have an important position in the kingdom. And there are rumors circulating that the biological child of the late queen prefers to be a prince. Are you that?" Clearly with the question at the end.

Steven nodded. "Yes." Yeah." Legally.

"The rumour is that the Prince is a female player who wanders around on the grounds of being evasive." The words were able to pierce Steven's innermost heart. Damnit damnit! What if he was rejected at the beginning! Though troubled, his face tried to calm down.

Duke Carrol continued. "My daughter is precious. I don't want his future to be interrupted just because of your momentary feelings. I have no problem with political marriage. But you're a female player, you could add a concubine or divorce my daughter. So, I decided to give you two conditions to prove your sincerity." Unmistakably.

Before telling his terms, Duke Carrol first gulped down the wine to clear his mind. "Through news that the King of Rhodes was hit by severe pain. You know at times like that, the prince's position could be kept suppressed by the crown prince." Throw-out.

"So I want you to grab that chair. The crown prince's seat there should be yours. That's the first condition. Are you willing?" Connect Duke Carrol.

"certain. That's easy."

"Second terms I'll let you know after you qualify first."

Inwardly, Steven wanted to swear disapproval. What if the second condition is impossible to do.

"Sorry Mr. Duke--"

"If you refuse, I assume you're ineligible."

Hearing that Steven just huffed.

The sun began to soar, sweat pouring down the forehead of the guests present. Most of them have a lot of business to do. The crowd of nobles decided to go home after asking for the king's permission.Once with the people, they had to work to make ends meet.

At the end of there, Agatha was looking wildly for where her family members were among the guests who were rushing home.

Before long, his hand was blocked by someone. The girl was surprised. Without lingering, the person pulled Agatha past the passing guest.

"Steve, where are you taking me?" Ask her. But there was no response from the man who was pulling her. After getting outside, Steven asked Agatha to ride his dark horse that Wim had prepared.

"For what? Say it!" Gertak Agatha who was upset earlier got no response.

"Dear fast. Just follow it." Steven forced.

"No!"

Hearing Agatha's rebuttal, Steven hissed. He had to pull Agatha's waist and carry her. The man then put Agatha on the horse. Deftly, Steven immediately climbed on the horse. He started to drive the horse to follow orders. Agatha, meanwhile, kept asking and rebelling.

"Basic crazy."

"Yes I'm crazy because of you."

Moments later, Steven stops his horse in a luxurious building but looks deserted. The green-blossomed man lowered Agatha carefully.

"Hey why did you take me to the temple?"

Steven again did not answer, he took the hand of the girl in the red dress and pulled her into the temple. Agatha continued to rebel and get upset, but it was all ignored.

They finally arrived at the temple. There are many long benches lined up neatly on the right and left. Steven brought Agatha right in front of the god statue. After that, Steven finally released the grip of his hand.

"What the fuck! What's that supposed?"
