I Am No King's

I Am No King's
Chapter 34 – Considerations



"So, any questions?"


 


After dinner, we sat in the living room. I sat at the end while Emir and Inanna were on the long sofa, on my left.


 


I'm retelling what King Fahren and King Arid said. Right now, after it was done, the Emir cast a glance while Inanna was still looking at me with her mouth half-open.


 


In conclusion, it seems, the Emir felt guilty while Inanna was shocked.


 


"What does that mean, no matter what happens, your Majesty will still give me to you?"


 


So, Inanna wasn't surprised at my ability? He's more focused on King Arid's decision?


 


"Most likely."


 


I dare not give certainty to Inanna's conjecture. Wh why? Because there is a chance that King Arid will give his other daughter, not Inanna.


 


"Inanna, if you don't mind, how about you tell me what you did until you fought the Emir, on the highway, back then?"


 


"At that time–"


 


"Inanna, are you going to tell Lugalgin your mission?" Emir cutting. "You're agent Gugalanna, your mission is a royal secret, right?"


 


"I don't care!" Inanna. "I don't care about the kingdom that has been deceiving and deceiving me since I was born!"


 


And a small dispute arose.


 


"Emir," I called.


 


The emir turned towards me. I saw his eyes already glazed over. He even bit his lips.


 


"You've heard my story. You could say that King Arid and King Fahren had different opinions with me, and I had no intention of accepting their opinions."


 


I won't say enemy. The risk is too great if I bluntly claim King Fahren and King Arid are enemies.


 


"But, Gin..."


 


The Emir was unable to finish his sentence. He lowered his head and squeezed his hands.


 


"In the future, there will be many conflicts and disputes between me and your family. Right now, you have three choices. First, be on my side. Second, be on your family side. Or third, you're not on anyone's side but I forbid you to interfere."


 


"That's..." The Emir was unable to confirm. "I need time to think about it."


 


Without me asking, the Emir has already stood up and left us. He went to the second floor, probably back to the room.


 


Looking at the Emir's reaction, I can surmise that unfortunately the feeling to me was true, not a trick to carry out the mission. However, for the time being, I have not been able to fully trust the Emir. Now, back to Inanna.


 


"Well, Inanna, how about you explain why you fought with the Emir back then?"


 


Inanna told me everything. A few weeks before that meeting, Inanna had already been sent to become a spy in Bana'an. The main purpose is to find personal information of the entire royal family and non-noble people related to the Kingdom.


 


My name appears in the reports of non-noble people related to the kingdom. However, the only information Inanna could get was that I was an antique dealer and was active on the black market. He was unable to get any other information.


 


Not long after, Inanna got an order to eliminate the Emir, who at that time also had a mission in the city of Haria, this city. King Arid declared that the Emir was a threat to the kingdom of Mariander, therefore, he had to be eliminated.


 


Inanna had some questions, but she had no right to speak or speak. And again, he just wanted to get his recognition and wish granted. Therefore, Inanna attacked the Emir.


 


After failing, Inanna backed down and gained new information. He was asked to gather information about me. And, unfortunately, there was no additional information other than the one he had gathered earlier. Finally, Inanna was called home to accompany Jeanne on her visit.


 


"And that's the full story."


 


Hmm. so yeah. From Inanna's story, it is possible that King Arid already knew that I had business relations with several members of the royal family, especially the Emir. It is possible that this information was supplied by King Fahren.


 


Without information from the Emir, I can only guess at King Fahren's move. Like what the Emir did in this town, and why the Emir was on that highway right when I got home. I think King Fahren knows my schedule and my habits. And, on the grounds that Gualanna's agents were sneaking in, and there was a cold war, the Emir was ordered to search for Gugalanna's agent.


 


If an outsider like me heard this information, we would definitely think that this was a conspiracy theory that didn't really happen. But unfortunately, this really happened.


 


"What does this mean, mother and Ninshubur have no territory anymore because of the King's plan?"


 


"In the meantime," I stopped Inanna. "That's my advice."


 


"Eh? Why?"


 


Inanna looked at me blankly. I could feel that he was confused to be angry or disappointed.


 


"The punishment inflicted on the Philial Concubine for your sister's betrayal is inevitable. So, instead of being a concubine with little military force and being in the enemy zone, I thought it would be safer for your mother to be moved to Bana'an.


 


"With your mother being the Ambassador, then Bana'an, inevitably, must provide security. Moreover, it would be difficult for the nobleman and concubine Mariander if they wanted to harm your mother because they had to go to Bana'an first. For your sister, I'm grateful that your mother would leave it to my family. That way, your brother's safety is guaranteed."


 


"Ah, so is it."


 


Light and life returned to Inanna's eyes. Smiles also grow. She was as happy as she was, trying to prevent her from crying.


 


Ninshubur's safety is unquestionable because he is with his mother. Mother is the highest security possible. To the Philial Concubine, I've sent my trusted men to secure it. However, I don't need to tell Inanna.


 


"In this situation," I added. "After we get married, I can change your nationality and Ninshubur becomes a Bana'an citizen. For your mother, I can arrange it. In essence, even if True One manages to turn Mariander into a Republic, then your mother and sister won't be victims."


 


At that moment, Inanna fell silent again. Apparently, there was something stuck in his heart.


 


"Is there anything else you want to talk about?"


 


"Ah, that, although I am happy because the safety of mother and Ninshubur is guaranteed, but I still worry about some of my friends." Inanna smiled wryly. "But you saving my family is a luxury. I couldn't have expected anything more."


 


Yeah, I can't deny that other than her family, Inanna's friends might be the victims.


 


"Yes, we'll talk about it when the time comes. Right now, at least, I've made sure that you're on my side."


 


"Yes, I'm on your side, Lugalgin."


 


***


 


Next day.


 


Today is Saturday. On Saturday, my father and I agreed to bring together Consorts Filial, Inanna, and Ninshubur. On the first Saturday, two weeks ago, we went to the town of Caria, visiting the Filial Concubine with Ninshubur and Inanna. Last week, we met at my mom and dad's house. So, this week, the schedule is to meet here, at my house.


 


On the other hand, we have not met the Emir's family since they drove the Emir to my house. Wh why? Because the Emir family is the royal family. I was lazy to go through the procedure just to see the Emir's family. On the other hand, the Emir's family did not seem to have any intention of visiting the Emir. Several times I found out they just called the Emir.


 


Another factor was my family's relationship with the Emir family, arguably, not very good. The three Emir brothers looked at my family one eye. I looked at the Emir one eye. So, yes, this is the result.


 


Even though the Emir is the one who came to me first, with the current condition, Inanna will be the first wife and the Emir will be the second wife. However, of course, mother further suggested that I just take Inanna.


 


Yes, if the Emir declares that he cannot be on my side, I will also carry out my mother's advice. I don't want to be stabbed in the back.


 


Right now, Inanna and I are changing the order of the house. Our televisions slide to the end of the room while the short couches and tables in our living room move into the living room.


 


The Emir is still asleep in the room. I didn't tell Inanna to wake her up.


 


Last night, after our conversation, I went to the Emir's room to check on him. I saw he was asleep still with his shirt and shorts, not yet changed into pajamas. His cheeks were moist and his eyes were swollen. Apparently, the Emir cried until he finally fell asleep.


 


Yeah, I can tell if he's worried. I covered the Emir with a blanket and let him sleep.


 


With Inanna, I didn't have to lift up the sofa and table in the living room. Inanna, just moved the sofa and table with restraint, making it float in the air.


 


At a time like this, I was really envious and wanted to have some controlling power. If I have the power of control, I can take anything in this house without moving.


 


Ding dong


 


The bell rang. While I was still moving snacks and dishes to the living room, Inanna opened the door.


 


"SISTER!"


 


Ninshubur's voice sounded.


 


Before coming here, they picked up the Filial Concubine first at the airport. So, right now, the families of the Filial Concubine and the Barun Alhold family had already gathered in this house.


 


 


As I walked carrying a tray of drinks, Ninlil hugged me from behind.


 


"Just last week did we meet?"


 


"Ah, sister is not exciting ah! Ninshubur and Inanna's sister can be very happy when they meet."


 


"Yes, how else. Before I moved in, we were still one house, right? On the other hand, Inanna has entered military school, lives in dormitories, and often carries out missions. They rarely meet."


 


"ah! Brother!"


 


"From that, help your sister move dishes in the kitchen. I'm using aluminum for the tray."


 


"Yes, yeah...."


 


Ninlil, who looked disappointed, moved the dishes present in the kitchen to the living room.


 


Over the next few hours, we chatted. Like relatives, our chat material penetrated into all things. Starting from the school of Ninlil and Ninshubur, my daily life and Inanna, the daily life of father and mother, and the daily life of the Philial Concubine.


 


Finally, the mother asked one thing that was quite crucial.


 


"By the way, where's Emir? How come I didn't see it?"


 


Me and Inanna throw one another a glance. I think maybe they should know that too.


 


"Ninlil, can you please take Ninshubur to my room or Inanna's room?"


 


Without asking much, Ninlil took Ninshubur to the second floor.


 


After Ninlil and Ninshubur left, I told Filial's father, mother, and concubine about what had happened.


 


***


 


"I didn't think Arid would do that."


 


"I'm sorry, Consort Filial.” I responded to Consort Filial. “I wouldn't say that King Arid is my enemy, but, obviously, we disagree. And, I don't know what he might have planned to force me to be King."


 


"No! I should have apologized. Because of Arid, you've been troubled. And, because of Arid too, your life is burdened with Inanna. However, atidak–"


 


"I'm sorry, Consort Filial, it seems you've misunderstood." I interrupted the Philial concubine. "I don't consider Inanna a burden. In these two weeks, I've accepted Inanna as a family member. So, it's appropriate that I protect her and you."


 


I put my hand on Inanna's head and stroked her gently. Inanna leaned her head against my shoulder.


 


At that moment, I could see Consort Filial smiling widely. In fact, his shoulders did not look stiff anymore. He dropped his shoulders, relieved. Not only did the Philial Concubine, mother did the same.


 


"Then, we get a reason to speed up your wedding ceremony."


 


Suddenly, she said something unexpected. We all turned our eyes to Mom.


 


Mother continued, "if we postpone the wedding ceremony, there is a possibility that King Arid will pull Inanna and Ninshubur back to Mariander. When that happens, we can't do anything. If we reject it, then Mariander will consider Bana'an as an enemy.


 


"Lugalgin would have no choice but to become the second King of the kingdom if he wanted to get Inanna back. We should avoid this scenario, right? But, if Lugalgin and Inanna get married, then Inanna will become a citizen of Bana'an. And at that time, we can register Ninshubur on the Lugalgin family card or my family card. As such, King Arid would not have much choice but to cooperate with King Fahren."


 


We all listened to Mom's statement.


 


"Wow," Inanna said it casually. "Night, Lugalgin said the same thing."


 


"I'm not surprised." Mother responds lightly. “I can say he came down from me.”


 


"All right! So, let's make the scale a priority." Dad got into the conversation. "First, the wedding ceremony of Lugalgin and Inanna. Second, register Ninshubur on the Lugalgin family card or my family card. Third, find a way to turn the Filial into a Bana'an citizen."


 


"Eh?" Consorts Filial jerked.


 


"Filial, don't you think we'll just leave you." Mom's back to driving the conversation. "I'm sure my son must have thought the same thing, but he's still thinking about how he hasn't said it. I know his habits, his good and bad habits."


 


Yup. Right enough.


 


I'm nodding.


 


"But, besides, we also have other problems." Mother added. "We do not know the plans of King Arid and King Fahren. They could have made other plans to make Lugalgin King. And, to make matters worse, the Alhold family also felt troubled by Lugalgin's achievements."


 


"Forget? You haven't heard that Enlil's trying to make me see him? In fact, yesterday, three people came to me."


 


"HUH?"


 


A vein appeared on the mother's temple and her left eye was wide open. Apparently, he was really angry.


 


"I've said they have to go through me if they want to deal with Lugalgin and Ninlil, but they still dare to come to you directly? Find them dead?"


 


On the other hand, I just smiled wryly. He threw a glance at me. Without speaking, I can guess you said, "Gin, why are you talking to your mother? I'm trying to handle this before your mother finds out. If it's like this, it'll be a hassle."


 


I also did not dare to fight mother. Not just because she's my real mother, but because of something else.


 


I need a distraction. What yes, what yes.


 


"Sorry to interrupt."


 


A voice appeared. We all looked up at the stairs. In front of the stairs, the Emir stood. Her hair had fallen off, not blooming like a lion. He took a shower and changed his clothes. Ninlil and Ninshubur were not seen with him.


 


Good, Emir. You came at the right time.


 


"Yes, what's the Emir?"


 


I immediately replied to the Emir. If the mother answers first, it can be a problem.


 


"Gin, regarding all this, I want to meet with mother and sister Yurika to talk about it."


 


I was silent for a moment. She only said mother, Empress Rahayu, and Princess Yurika. Was he not planning on discussing this with King Fahren? If he did this, only talking to his mother and older sister, there was a chance that King Fahren and his other brothers would be offended. I got worried.


 


Corrections. Not King Fahren, but his three brothers.


 


"alright. But, me and Inanna will come along too."


 


Seriate


 


 


\============================================================


 


 


Hello All.


 


This chapter was uploaded Thursday night due to total hectic work. Plus the body is sick. The author's body is strange. If you take supplements or multi-vitamins, it hurts more. So, you can not also run the advice of friends who say “drink supplements so it does not hurt”. Hehe. So, because of some of those things, just uploaded Thursday night.


 


Plus, the newly annoying mangatoon system. So, Author can not directly copy from ms word, but must pass the new notepad to Mangatoon. In addition, Author must also remove the number of entries between paragraphs that somehow always add on the mangatoon platform. Not to mention failed upload until how many times. If it fails to upload, it must copy to notepad, copy to mangatoon, delete enter again deh. and, can fail again.


 


The previous chapters, 32 and 33, were actually uploaded on Saturday and Tuesday, but only released on Wednesday. So, yesterday double release deh. Well. Never mind. Its alright. Again, the author was curious, what exactly is reviewed by admin?


 


Oh, for the story, this chapter connects from ch 30 – interlude. So, the interlude installed is arguably a foreshadowing of the story to come in the future.


 


Yesterday the Author idly took a walk in the group of Indonesian comics and nemu (eah, nemu he said) artists whose style art is good and fits the author, namely pokarii. So, the Author also directly submit a commission to the artist concerned. If the picture is ready, it will be used as a cover novel that will be sold dicomifuro.


 


The author is not paid to mention the name pokarii. However, there is no harm in doing good, hopefully launching his fortune.


 


If there is an illustrator who wants to collaborate comics or create illustrations for I am No King, can contact the author on instagram @renigad.sp.author or facebook ren.igad.33. Or if you want to open commis, can also contact through the two. For the price, well later on. For the record, the artist whose image is used as a cover is a pixiv artist, ⁇ or QYS3.


 


So, before, the author just took a walk in pixiv, looking for original content, trus pm artistnya. So, the promotion at the end is something that the author does voluntarily because the artist has allowed the author to use the image. So, readers can open the pixiv page and like gallery in . Both can also.


 


Once again, thank you to all the readers who have liked and commented. Your support means a lot to the author.


 


See you in the next chapter
