When Asher heard Skadi's soft voice, his mind buzzed, and everything went chaotic. He had never felt so uneasy, even once feeling like his life was almost over.
Past experiences flashed through his mind like images, like a runaway film projector, and the joys and sorrows of his life reached a critical point at this moment. To be honest, Asher had felt a tiny, truly tiny, bit of happiness before. Because he hadn't expected Skadi to agree so easily. Perhaps his gaze and words had moved her? Or did she have her own considerations? But anyway, she agreed.
A beautiful goddess had actually accepted his proposal... this was indeed something to be happy about.
However Feeling countless eyes in the hall fall upon him, especially the calm gazes of the leading figures who seemed to be suppressing their emotions, Asher's tiny bit of happiness vanished. But seeing Skadi's lowered head at this moment, Asher found it hard to speak. Should he say now: "I was manipulated just now, what I said wasn't my true intention"? Wouldn't that be a direct slap in the face?! No, since the original plan was for Skadi to propose to me, and then for me to reject her. Then if I explain now, it shouldn't matter, right? Thinking this, Asher immediately felt much more energized, his mind buzzing with thoughts.
Meanwhile, at the round table, the kings looked at each other, then tacitly withdrew their gazes. Regrettable, this was truly regrettable. Unexpectedly, a goddess would actually propose to King Arthur. In that case, their daughters indeed had no chance. However, despite their regret, the kings all began to offer congratulations.
"Congratulations, King Arthur."
"Yes, congratulations."
"A goddess, truly enviable."
While the kings were still wholeheartedly exclaiming about the perfect match between King Arthur and the goddess, some of them also noticed something amiss. It was simply too quiet, eerily quiet. Besides the few kings who were offering congratulations, everyone else remained silent. The Knights of the Round Table stood stiffly in place, their expressions rigid, neither moving nor sitting, making the atmosphere particularly strange.
Thus, the kings who had just been congratulating him also immediately fell silent.
When the silence reached an extreme, Asher awoke from his thoughts. ...I need to smooth this over quickly.
Although he thought this, when the words reached his mouth, he still couldn't say anything. The plan he and Skadi discussed earlier was just a simple plan, but after Skadi answered his words just now... the nature of it was completely different. When he proposed to Skadi, she actually accepted... If he were to explain now that he was actually manipulated earlier, he would probably be too embarrassed to face Skadi later.
Just then, someone coughed lightly. Asher looked up, scanned the kings, and asked, "Is there anything else? If not, the meeting will end here today."
"King Arthur, I have a question I'd like to ask, if I may?" A tribal chief stepped forward and said.
"..." This person was Baos' father. What was his name again...? Hmm... never mind. Asher nodded and said, "Go ahead."
"Can what you just said to this goddess be understood as
officially establishing her as Queen?"
"Regarding the establishment of a Queen, my esteemed teacher once said long ago that it would be more suitable after the age of twenty," Asher said.
"Meaning, this is similar to dating before marriage, to deepen your understanding of each other?" The tribal chief looked thoughtful. Asher forcibly maintained his composure and said with a smile, "Do you have anything else?" The tribal chief's mouth slightly opened, but before he could speak, Asher interrupted, "Oh, nothing else? Then I'll have someone escort you out."
With that, Asher had someone come to the hall and escorted the kings away. Although they still wanted to inquire, upon sensing Asher's "be quiet" gaze, the tribal chiefs understood and said no more. It seemed that the matter of establishing a Queen might not be settled so quickly. What? King Arthur proposed to a goddess?
That's nothing. As long as a Queen hasn't been officially established, nothing is set in stone. There's still a chance for everything. Now it's just a formal courtship between the two... a courtship, well, they've all been through it.
They'd be embarrassed to call themselves chiefs if they didn't have three wives and four concubines at home.
Perhaps in the end, the Queen won't be the goddess?
Thinking this, the kings' minds began to buzz with activity again.
After Asher watched the tribal chiefs leave and withdrew his gaze, a voice spoke beside him: "King Arthur." A person stood beside Asher. It was Agravain.
The other Knights of the Round Table, besides Agravain, had already left the hall with the tribal chiefs.
"What is it, Lord Agravain?" Asher asked.
"King Arthur, were you serious about what you just said?" Agravain felt it was necessary to confirm King Arthur's intentions. He did not object to King Arthur and the goddess being together, but he needed to confirm if King Arthur was sincere. After all, if a divine being got angry, it would be a disaster for all of Britain. Moreover, Agravain genuinely felt that Artoria was more suitable for King Arthur, and it was certainly not just because his mother also supported it, but because he believed it himself.
"You will know about this later. Leave now, Agravain," Morgan interrupted Agravain. Her expression was calm, but this was a warning before an outburst. Agravain was completely oblivious. He shook his head and said seriously, "I must have an answer now. Although King Arthur being with a goddess would be a beautiful story, it is also necessary to confirm whether King Arthur is sincere."
"Are you finished?" Morgan asked softly.
"Not yet."
"He's finished, Imperial Sister," Artoria's calm voice came from the side. Agravain's voice finally stopped. He turned his head slightly, looked at Morgan, then at Artoria, and then scanned Scathach and Uathach. A strong sense of crisis suddenly screamed in his subconscious, as if saying: If you don't leave now, it'll be too late.
"I have something I want to discuss privately with King Arthur. Are you finished with your questions?" Morgan asked again. Agravain subconsciously swallowed hard, then finally nodded heavily.
"Mm... I'll withdraw for now, King," he bowed slightly.
"Please take care."
The hall doors slowly closed at Morgan's command, shadows gradually enveloping Asher. Finally, with a soft thud, the huge doors completely closed. Behind Asher, several gazes calmly watched his retreating back, their eyes revealing a deep, chilling intent.
