"You can trust us, Hero Kael."
The King spoke as he looked into Kael's eyes with a meaningful look on his face.
"Father-"
Edric wanted to say something,
"Silence."
The King glared at his son and Edric clenched his fists and he did what he was told. He glanced at Kael for a moment before he turned away, as if he didn't want to be part of this meeting any longer.
Kael, whose plan had worked, smiled gleefully in his head. His face, of course, stayed normal.
"I can ask anything?"
He questioned, tilting his head as he showed some suspicion.
"You can."
The King nodded, not going back on his words.
"The Princess, I want to know more about her."
"What do you wish to know?"
"Something doesn't add up.
You said that Twilight only chose weak Tamers who couldn't grow any stronger, Tamers who were desperate for Power. Then why would they reach out to the Princess, who had nothing but a bright future ahead of her?
No matter how I see it, I cannot wrap my mind around it.
