Garius rubbed his temple, sighing deeply.
"We'll discuss it after my youngest son completes his mission, Mylezra."
"Eh~? But I already told you," Mylezra pouted, leaning slightly forward, arms folded beneath her chest. "I've waited long enough, Garius. I rejected every single handsome elven suitor who came for me… because of you. Do you know how many years I held back? I'm sad... really sad~"
Javier froze in place, completely unsure whether to run or laugh.
King Lioness just chuckled softly, choosing not to say a word.
But inside his mind?
Heh… That's what you get, Garius… for promising every girl who joined your party back when you were a hot-blooded teen. Hahaha!
Garius's eye twitched.
Mylezra continued without mercy, gently brushing her long hair behind her ear. "And don't think I forgot about the others, Garius. You made promises to me, to Eridith, and even to that demon general girl too~ You really thought I'd let you keep dodging this forever?"
