章 236: Truth and Temptation

"I wonder if this is a good idea, but… have you considered having an engagement with Tuskan?" Mariette said. Aster froze on the spot, he expected that sentence coming from Mariette the least. Because Mariette was like a big sister to him.

"I… I don't think it's a good idea," Aster refused, "In fact, if I'm allowed to be crude, that is simply crazy. Tuskan is a Great King of Great Arctyr, well, he is still inexperienced, and sometimes very stubborn. But he can fight against many of his colluding ministers by himself, he is a strong man."

"Indeed, he is a strong man," Mariette sighed again, "So, I don't see any reason to discount Tuskan here? Granted that he is still young and he can be emotional sometimes, but trust me, he still has that permanent zero social skill. He is just nervous around you most of the time."
