Chapter 583: Post-processing (6)
Engagement? Why?
Arthur’s eyes widened in surprise at the unexpected word, but the fragment of Soladin floating beside him answered the confusion calmly.
“Haven’t you heard the saying that nothing is closer than blood ties?”
Even without the monstrous Benedict Arln, the current strength of the Arln family is nothing short of awe-inspiring.
Naturally, they’d desire a connection by blood. Hearing the dry tone, which bore no emotional nuance, Arthur managed to pull himself out of his shock.
The First Queen cares only for the kingdom. She wouldn’t listen to personal feelings.
Yesterday, the sight of that guy dancing with the fairy resurfaced, and Arthur felt a flare of frustration.
“I understand that the intention is to strengthen the connection with the Arln family. However, it doesn’t seem like Benedict would accept the engagement so easily.”
During the last winter break when Arthur trained with the Arln family, he had been threatened by Benedict Arln in various ways.
His words—“If you touch my daughter, you’ll see a horrific sight”—mixed with Benedict Arln’s imposing aura, turned into a terrifying threat.
They had just gotten along casually, and now an engagement?
That day, Arthur truly thought he might disappear from this world.
