Chapter 57: Why Won't You Listen?!

"Daughter, if that is your desire you have our blessing." The king said.

"Thank you, father!" Samantha said. "I am so happy you trust my judgment on this!"

"Wait!" Zell yelled. "What are you talking about?! I just met you, we can't just get married!"

"I am sorry." Samantha apologized. "I did not know this would offend you so. Do the royalty in Neuval not have marriages arranged by the king?"

"I guess, but this is different." Zell said. "I am no longer royalty nor am I with my kingdom. I am just me, a hero out to save the world. I do not have time to get married!"

"That is fine we can wait until after you bring peace to the world." Samantha smiled.

"I never agreed to this!" Zell protested.

"Do you not find me attractive at all?" Samantha asked, putting on a sad face. "I am half elf so I will stay young and beautiful for far longer than a normal human. Just think of the benefits. As you are old and gray, I will still look like I am in my thirties."
