Chapitre 426: Queen Selene's Request

Suddenly, he spotted the Queen standing behind him, her eyes narrowed and fixed directly on him. "My daughter is right, Mr. Orion. Why do you want to start giving people the idea that having children with a foreigner will secure their way out of this mountain?" she questioned, her brow raised. "I don't know where you got this idea, but you need to be cautious with your words. I'm not certain the royal family can protect you if rumours of this start spreading among the Prismerian people."

However, unlike before, Orion didn't appear cautiously subdued. 

Instead, he stared directly at Queen Selene, their gazes locking, and replied, "Don't worry about me. If push comes to shove, I'm very confident I can protect myself." 

He gulped down the fruit wine, no longer bothering to sip it slowly, and then placed the glass cup back on the table.
