Capítulo 303: Chapter 303 : I never deserved you

The palace training grounds were deathly quiet as Eira walked in, fully dressed in armor ready for battle. 

some people were still waiting for someone, anyone, to say this was all nothing but a bad joke, but no one ever did. The princess would indeed use this strange and barbaric practice to choose a husband, and no one could stop her.

The announcer from earlier dramatically unrolled a parchment of paper when princess Eira was at the center of the field and called out the name of the first suitor.

All eyes turned to the man who was frozen in place not knowing exactly what do do. Was he really expected to fight the princess? Was such a thing even allowed? What if he ended up hurting her? He would be hanged for such a treacherous act.

The man took a step back and shook his head, indicating that he was not willing to fight the princess. There were other three men who did the same, refusing to take part in an act that involved them hurting a woman.
