Chapter 78 - Prince Mars Lashes Out
Mars i about, Lady Preston? You said the people should know that their future king is not an evil monster ould just kill rando me to kill a woman just to prove that the curse is broken?"
Lady Preston immediately shook her head and replied, "That's not what I hness If you were completely free from the curse, then no one would die, wouldn't they? Would you like to continue living like this? You will never be able to touch other women for your whole life? Is that what you want?"
"If I was free from that curse, yes, no one would die But what if it turns out that I' to die? We're talking about a 50 chance I'll kill an innocent girl here," said Mars fir to you, Lady Preston?"
Emmelyn was stunned by the words spoken so firradually turned to attentive
She didn't expect Mars would iestion just because he didn't want to kill innocent people to find out whether he was free from the curse or not
This was coe that she had heard about Prince Mars out there as the devil incarnate hiotten to know for the pastlike the rumors He was a bit perverted and shamelessbut he never killed anyone randoht red-handed about to kill him, was not sentenced to death as she should have Instead, Mars offered Edoave the prince what he wanted, three heirs, he would return Wintermere to her
In fact, if he was evil and only wanted offspring, it would not be difficult for hietting any compensation
Nohen Mars heard that there was a possibility that he could find out the status of his curse at the risk of sacrificing just one person, Mars totally rejected the idea
He said no, even though it means he would be permanently trapped in his current situation, where he couldn't have any direct contact with any women other than Emmelyn
This e, slowly filled with a strange warmoor from a different perspective
Mars had no idea that his recent decision to reject Lady Preston's suggestion had changed Emmelyn's view of him
"Your Majesty, The Queen," Lady Preston now tried to persuade Queen Elara to advise her son "The Draec Kingdom needs an heir to the throne All this time, the royal famoor cannot marry and have children If he does not produce the next heirs to the throne, you know that there would be civil wars and a power struggle Do the king and queen want that to happen?"
Queen Elara looked at Mars and tried to read her son's heart She had heard from Mars earlier that her son loved Emmelyn deeply and wanted towhether he was free from the curse or not?
What if Emmelyn didn't love him back and would really leave hi?
Would Mars continue to hope for just that girl in his life? After allas the future king, he did have an obligation to his kingdoht" Finally, Queen Elara spoke to mediate the tense situation "I don't think it would be fair to others if someone would die just so that my son could find out whether he is free from the curse or not In this case, I support the crown prince's decision"
Lady Preston looked disgruntled "But if the Prince does not know the truth, then forever he will not be able to s Doesn't the prince have OBLIGATION to the Draec kingdoood of many people would be understandable"
BAM!
"Lady Preston!" Suddenly Mars hit the table in front of him "I don't want to be disrespectful to an older woman, but I think you have crossed the line here My private life is none of your business Do you think, as the crown prince, I aarded of my duties that you need to advise me like you would advise a child? Do you think I am stupid and must always be reminded to do my duties?"
