Published at 27th of June 2019 03:08:54 PM Chapter 69

The tense atmosphere felt very suffocating, and Lyn s.h.i.+fted in Kazuya's arms uncomfortably . While being in his embrace made her feel safe and warm, like usual . Due to the current situation, she couldn't enjoy things while Lyn understood that her brothers don't exactly get along with each other . Lyn didn't think there was a grudge of any kind between Eldest Brother and Kazuya . After all, he handled that previous mess without injuring Kazuya, and he even entrusted her to Kazuya . The one Eldest Brother seems to dislike is Rhys . So, why do things feel awkward right now?

Lyn knew it was not just her imagination either when it came to these matters she was very sharp .

After a while, Kazuya spoke up and broke the silence . He let's go of her, " It seems like Prince Andrew has something valuable to discuss with you today . I guess I could leave you two for a bit . "

Eh? Ehhh?

Lyn looked at Kazuya puzzled . Despite that deadly atmosphere just now, he isn't going to do anything but this? She tugged on his sleeve, stopping him from leaving .

"I want you to stay . "

Eldest brother is right, and she no longer fears him . However, Lyn didn't want to hear any important news without Kazuya anymore . She no longer wants to do her brothers bidding on that matter anymore . Lyn no longer wants to spy on Kazuya, the two of them are in a healthy relations.h.i.+p now . She doesn't want to keep any secrets from him .

Andrew walked over to the window and leaned on it, "Now then I shall be the one asking the questions . Tell me, either of you two . What do you think of this Kingdom?"

Lyn blinked, surprised at his words . What does she think of this Kingdom?

"It's a beautiful town, with the nicest group of villagers I've ever seen . "

Kazuya?

"But?" Andrew edged forward .

"It needs reformation; Queen Orthez current rule will not do . The people living here are very friendly, they will not hate or discriminate against a person without a valid reason . "

Wahhh- wait, that's a dangerous line though Lyn thought the same . Mother is an excellent ruler, but the way things are now in the Mist Kingdom, more conflict will arise than peace . This is why she doesn't think her Mother can become the Empress . 'Being a good ruler is not necessarily a good thing,' Lyn learned this over the years . After seeing and interacting with the village people in person, Lyn understood . Mother is good at ruling, but she cannot unite everybody under her rule . People obey her because she's good at being the Queen, not because they respect her .

Instead of getting mad, her eldest brother simply nodded, "You are not wrong . Why do you think I shadow Mother and help her? It is to dispel the damage . "

"Queen Orthez is not responsible for this, she had a vision for peace, and the townsfolk thought well of her . "

Andrew smiled, "So, you are aware it was my father who made a mess of things?"

"The previous king, King Nate's Reformation of the previous rule did not go well . Corrupt individuals slipped into the current government because he wished to uphold his family traditions," Kazuya explained .

But, the reason why Uncle Nate made such a mistake was because of her . Lyn didn't want to bring that up though; she knew if she spoke up about it, then Kazuya would surely change his mind about her . It was because of that time she got kidnapped . Uncle Nate rushed to save her - right in the middle of when they were reforming the government system .

"The previous King may have committed a mistake, but he was not a bad man," Lyn spoke up, "He did not mean to disrupt people's peace . People fail to see the truth just because of one mistake . They forgot all about how hard he fought for them, just because of the corruption . '

Andrew reached over and patted her head, "Thank you," he whispered softly so only she could hear it, "But father's mistake lead to this mess of a situation now . It leads to Mother being slandered and attacked everyday . Even as his son, I know better than to make excuses . "

"Eldest Brother . "

"Despite all this corruption, Lyn loves the town and its people," Kazuya suddenly said .

"I know . "

"The amount of dedication your sister has to the people is the same amount as a ruler of your country should have . "

"Hm, are you saying the throne should be pa.s.sed to Lyn?"

"That's not my decision to make . But all of you would do some good and learn from Lyn . "

Lyn looked at Kazuya alarmed, learn from her? She tugged on his arm, "Kazuya, what are you talking about? The things I know regarding the Kingdom are very little . "

"But even with such limited knowledge, you strive and do your best to learn more . You're doing it for the people, even though you're not exactly the studious type . "

That would have sounded a lot better if he didn't say the last part .

Lyn shook her head, "Even so, I don't wish to become a ruler . I have no interest in the throne," it's true that she wants to help the people . She wants things to change, but Lyn intends to change things as 'Lyn' and not as the Princess . Not with any fancy t.i.tle attached to her name .

"But, if Mother wished for you to take over . Would you refuse her?" Andrew asked .

The question startled her, why is he even asking her that question? There is no what it's, the heir to the throne is him and not her . But when Lyn looked into her eldest brothers eye's, all she saw was his earnest gaze . 'He's serious about this, but why?' Lyn thought . Mother may be kinder to her these days . But she knew full well that Mother still treated her existence as a curse . Even if her ident.i.ty gets revealed, Lyn knew her current situation would not change . However, as she thought this, Lyn recalled something she overheard recently . Even Prince John's attendant said the same .

These rumors about her taking the throne, where did they come from?

"You see, Lyn, what the Mist Kingdom needs right now is a good ruler . Not somebody who is just good at ruling, but somebody with kindness and compa.s.sion towards the people . Mother and I are quite heartless, and we have a hard time understanding peoples emotions . But it's not like that with you . While you make your mistakes, and can't completely read everybody - there is not one human alive who can read people completely . But unlike us, you are more," he paused and thought for a bit before he said, "Human . "

" . . . "

Lyn didn't know what to say . What is brother getting at by saying all this? The tense atmosphere felt very suffocating, and Lyn s.h.i.+fted in Kazuyas arms uncomfortably . While being in his embrace made her feel safe and warm, like usual . Due to the current situation, she couldnt enjoy things while Lyn understood that her brothers dont exactly get along with each other .
