“You are not kidding, are you?” Derein asked with a serious expression.
“I am not. If you kissed me in front of her… I will really be able to take over the Elven Kingdom,” Anon spoke.
“I will kiss you in front of anyone you want, as long as you can take over these Elves… just tell me who is she?” Derein asked with a passionate expression.
“Well, she has blue hair and blue eyes. She is standing near the carriages… I will tell you when to kiss me, don’t worry,” Anon spoke.
“Wait… are you talking about Faith? The chief commander of the White Elves?” Derein asked.
“Yeah, you know her?” Anon asked with a surprised expression.
“Yes, I do. She comes with your Elven Queen every year,” Derein explained.
“Ah… Okay,” Anon spoke as he nodded his head in understanding. 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝐞𝐥.
“We should go back inside or my daughters will come out searching for me,” Derein spoke.
“Yes, and one more thing, you have stupid daughters, do you know that?” Anon spoke as he started walking towards the door with Derein.
“Yeah, I know. They are adopted, can’t do anything; their mother was a very brilliant warrior…. but now they are my daughters, and they love me so much. I can ignore their fat minds, in front of all that love; they keep me going when Arthur leaves,” Derein spoke as she entered inside the room.
Anon waited a bit before entering, and after exactly 30 seconds passed, he entered inside.
Creak
Everyone looked at Anon with a smile, and he looked back at everyone with a confused expression.
‘Wait… Is something wrong here?’ Anon thought as he looked at Derein and saw her smiling at Anon.
“Mr. Jule, these two young ladies want to test out their skills with you. Can you please do the honors? It will just be a really short match,” Fiona spoke as she looked at Anon with a wide smile.
On the other side, Derein’s daughters also had big smiles on their faces, as if they can defeat Anon in just one second.
“I don’t think we are here to fight…” Anon whispered in Fiona’s ears.
“Umm… give me a second, ladies. I want to have a small chat with my butler. Come with me…” Fiona spoke as she exited the room with Anon.
“So, what did you two do? Explain yourselves now,” Derein asked with an angry expression.
“Mom, she was bragging about her butler too much. So, I kind of asked her for a duel with him, but sister supported me as well,” Anna spoke up with a guilty face.
“Hey, you don’t have to drag me down with you. Mom, I didn’t say anything about a physical duel with swords and stuff, I asked for a magic duel,” Jenna spoke up.
“Okay, here is what you two will do once they come back in… you two will apologize for your behavior and cancel this duel. Do you understand, ladies?” Derein spoke as she looked at both of them with a very angry expression.
“We are sorry, Mother.” Both of them apologized.
“Good…” Derein replied.
“…But we can’t take back a duel.” Anna spoke.
“What?”
“Yes, mother. Sister is right. We can apologize if you want, but as warriors of the human kingdom, we won’t take back our duels.” Jenna added.
“You two idiots…” Derein spoke as she grabbed her temples.
‘How do I tell them that the one they are asking for a fight will kill them before they even blink,’ Derein thought with a worried expression.
Outside the room…
“What are you doing, Mr. Jule? I said you are going to fight them, means you are going to fight them… Why are you giving me excuses?” Fiona asked with a serious expression.
“They don’t have an immortal arena here… if one of them or both of them died, how would you explain it?” Anon spoke.
Suddenly Fiona started thinking about it…
‘He is right… if he killed even one of them. Everything will drop on me. I can’t afford to attend more memorials…’
“Okay, we are going to deny the duel,” Fiona spoke as she looked at Anon with an understanding look.
‘Well, that was easy. Guess she is not a total stupid bitch…’ Anon thought in his mind as both of them entered inside the room again.
“Queen Fiona, you are back. Please take a seat… my daughters may have something they want to say to you,” Derein spoke as she smiled at Fiona.
“We are very sorry for our behavior, Queen Fiona.” Both of Derein’s daughters immediately apologized by slightly bowing down.
“Oh… Oh, okay. It means you are taking back the request of your duel, right?” Fiona asked with a smile.
“Yes…” Derein spoke.
“No…” Anna immediately spoke up.
“No…” Jenna added.
“What does that mean?” Fiona asked with a confused expression.
“We may have apologized to you, Queen Fiona, but as warriors of the human kingdom, we will not be able to take back the Duel’s request,” Anna spoke up.
“Oh… is that so? Well, according to my butler here… he can’t have a duel with you guys because he thinks he will hurt you,” Fiona replied with a smile.
“Ah… is that so?” Jenna spoke up as she looked at Anon with a smile.
“Yes, that’s right. I was thinking just that,” Derein spoke up as she tried to stop it from happening.
“Yeah, that or maybe he isn’t man enough to duel with two ladies at once. Hahaha…” Anna spoke as she mocked Anon with a smile.
“What?” Fiona asked with a very serious expression.
“N-No, that’s not what she wanted to say. She—”
“Let’s do this…” Anon spoke up with a menacing smile on his face.
“Fuck…” Derein knew that her step-daughters have messed up.
“Umm… Hey, did you forget about the killing thing already ?” Fiona asked as she whispered into Anon’s ears.
“Fuck killing, I will show her my balls and if I am man enough or not… isn’t that what you wanted too ?” Anon asked Fiona.
“Okay, let’s do this.” Fiona spoke as she turned around with a big smile on her face.
