Chapitre 511: Third Arc (Fallen Heart) - 276. Next Queen I
Third Arc (Fallen Heart) - 276. Next Queen I
Chancellor Allan maintained his composed exterior. "Your Majesty, that is... surprising news," he replied, careful to choose his words.
"Wait, are you talking about Princess Rose of Zephyrus, Your Majesty?" Cley ventured, his voice tinged with a touch of uncertainty.
Claire turned her gaze to Cley, her expression conveying a silent admonishment. It was a look that said, "Of course, who else?"
Caught in the spotlight, Cley offered a nervous smile in defense of his question. "He could have met another Rose in Asteria," he countered, though the feeble attempt at justification only served to elicit a faint huff from Claire.
Cley's mind whirled with a flurry of thoughts. While he acknowledged the suitability of Rose as a companion for Angel, he couldn't ignore the complexities that her status brought to the equation. The infamous deeds of Rose's family cast a shadow over any potential union, raising doubts and questions among the courtiers of Euphorion.
'On second thought,' Cley mused silently, 'even if His Majesty were to choose another 'Rose,' the court would likely withhold their approval if she hailed from another kingdom.' The intricacies of court politics loomed large in his mind, reminding him of the delicate balance of power that dictated the affairs.
Chancellor Allan's calm demeanor belied the flurry of thoughts swirling in his mind as he processed Angel's unexpected announcement. Despite his surprise, he maintained his composure, offering his congratulations to the king in measured tones.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty. At last, Euphorion will soon get a queen," the chancellor remarked, his voice steady and composed. However, beneath his polite exterior, a subtle undercurrent of curiosity lingered, manifesting in the form of a probing question about Angel's plans for garnering the court's approval.
Angel's reaction to the chancellor's inquiry was one of mild surprise, his brows arching in response to the unexpected lack of resistance. "Oh, you don't mind that?" Angel queried, his tone laced with a hint of incredulity. He had anticipated at least some degree of opposition or skepticism from Chancellor Allan, yet the chancellor's acceptance of his decision came as a welcome surprise.
Inwardly, Angel breathed a sigh of relief, grateful for the chancellor's tacit approval. He had braced himself for potential objections or challenges to his chosen course of action.
The chancellor's response was unexpectedly straightforward, devoid of the anticipated reservations or objections. Instead, a smirk graced his features as he articulated his pragmatic perspective on the matter.
"No," the chancellor asserted firmly, his tone carrying an air of assurance. "As long as she gave Euphorion an heir, it wouldn't be a problem for me." His words resonated with a sense of pragmatism, emphasizing the importance of securing the kingdom's future through the establishment of an heir.
Angel couldn't help but be amused by the chancellor's candid demeanor. Despite the weightiness of the topic at hand, the chancellor's blunt assessment elicited a snort of amusement from the king. It was a rare moment of levity amidst the solemnity of their discussion.
"It's good to hear that," Angel remarked, his tone tinged with relief. The chancellor's reassurance served as a validation of Angel's decision, affirming the path he had chosen for the future of Euphorion. In Chancellor Allan, Angel found not only a steadfast ally but also a source of unwavering support and guidance in navigating the complexities of royal governance.
"You haven't answered my previous question, Your Majesty," the chancellor pressed, his gaze unwavering as he awaited Angel's response. Beneath his composed demeanor, there lingered a sense of apprehension, a recognition of the formidable challenges that lay ahead.
The chancellor's inquiry pierced the air with a sense of urgency, his tone tinged with a hint of worry. Despite his initial acceptance of Angel's decision, he couldn't overlook the potential obstacles that lay ahead. The shadow of the Rose family's transgressions loomed large, casting a pall of uncertainty over the prospect of securing the court's approval.
Angel met the chancellor's gaze, his expression contemplative as he weighed the gravity of the situation. The chancellor's concern was not unfounded; the stain of the Rose family's misdeeds ran deep, casting doubt upon the suitability of Rose as queen. The specter of rebellion lurked on the periphery, a looming threat that threatened to destabilize the fragile peace of Euphorion.
