Chapter 426: Watson, It Is Your Responsibility
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
King Landhar III’s gaze swept over Antonio and Reid before landing on Watson. He saw Watson foolishly staring at Kiana with his mouth wide open, enough to fit an egg. He felt a little happy.
Watson had always made him angry when he talked to him, and it was his turn to take revenge. When he saw the results, he was delighted, and that was only the beginning. As a king, he rarely had such a simple and happy time; he did not know why he always let down his guard when he was with Watson. Perhaps it was because he had signed a soul contract with Watson.
“Your Majesty, why are you here?”
Antonio looked at the King who was standing in front of him. He was wearing a luxurious robe and had an extraordinary bearing. All he needed was a crown to tell everyone that he was the King. He smiled bitterly.
He was not worried that his conversation with Reid would cause dissatisfaction with the King. After all, the King intended to let Watson win. Otherwise, King Landhar III would not have secretly manipulated the numbers. He did not expect His Majesty to appear there so suddenly. He did not know why he was there.
Based on his understanding of King Landhar III, the man would never do anything meaningless. He must have an ulterior motive for appearing at the Sword Saint’s courtyard.
Reid, who had the same thoughts as Antonio, bowed slightly to King Landhar III and asked, “I wonder why Your Majesty has come to the Sword Saint’s courtyard.”
“If I have nothing to do, can’t I come here to take a look? The purpose of my visit is very simple. My youngest daughter, Kiana, wants to meet her future husband. At the same time, she laments Watson’s wonderful performance in the exhibition competition, which led to the sale of sun fruit wine and platinum-tier weapons in the kingdom. In a short period, we have earned billions of gold coins.”
“Weren’t you discussing where to eat just now? With me here, you don’t need to go out to eat because I brought many precious ingredients. Later, I will summon a few professional chefs from the palace to let you taste the food that I usually eat.”
The chefs that King Landhar III hired were different from those mediocre chefs in the tavern outside. Even the best chefs in the Holy Dragon Tavern could not compare to a single finger of the chefs in the palace. It was a great honor to have the palace chefs cook in the home of any ministers.
“His Majesty is here to treat us to a meal? It looks like we’re in for a treat.”
Lily almost drooled. She looked at Charlotte, who muttered, “Foodie.” She shook her head.
“The King is here just to treat us to a meal? I’m afraid that’s not all there is to it. He might want to treat Watson. Besides, why would he say that he had earned billions of gold coins through the sun fruit wine and platinum-tier weapons? Is he showing off? It doesn’t look like it. Instead, it’s more like he’s reporting to someone. As the ruler of a country, who does he need to report to?”
Lana could hear some clues from the words of King Landhar III. She could not help but think about it. Casey was staring blankly at Kiana. He could not help but swallow his saliva. “His Majesty said that he brought Kiana here to meet her future husband. The competition is not over yet, so we don’t know who the winner is yet. Under such circumstances, he must have a clear target to say something like a future husband. In other words, Princess Kiana has someone she likes. It can’t be me, right?”
“If His Majesty is here, then forget it. Why is Princess Kiana here?”
Watson’s expression was the ugliest among everyone there. In order to leave the Royal Academy, he had to say that his home was on fire. Who would have thought that the King would still bring Kiana along with him after he had expressed his feelings so clearly.
“Watson, when you were at the Royal Academy, you said that your home was on fire and that you were in a hurry to put out the fire. It was as if you did not want to talk to me! Therefore, other than coming here to offer my condolences and treat you to a meal, I have another purpose, which is to help you put out the fire in your residence. However, it seems that there are no signs of fire here. I have been deceived. Watson, you are very brave.”
What?
Everyone looked at Watson with a strange expression. They were puzzled that Watson had deceived King Landhar III and wondered why Watson had found an excuse to leave. Others were eager to be with King Landhar III, so why would Watson want to go? Was that a true genius that even the King could not care less about?
“Your Majesty, you must be joking. I have no intention of lying to you!” Watson pointed to the room next to him. A red light flashed, and red flames immediately rose on the wall. “Your Majesty, look, isn’t that place on fire?”
King Landhar III was speechless.
Everyone else was dumbstruck too.
After a moment of silence, Christina shouted angrily, “Watson, that is my room! How dare you light a fire here? Get out of here.”
A sword aura flashed, and the flames on the wall were extinguished. Christina pushed Watson and the others out of the room with great strength.
“I’m sorry, everyone. As you can see, I’ve made Tina angry, so I’ll have to hide outside for a while. I won’t be able to join you for the rest of the dinner! I hope that everyone will have a good chat. Goodbye.”
He tidied his clothes, bowed to the people around him, and left the room.
Everyone frowned when they heard that. Watson’s act of lighting the room on fire was clearly intentional. A normal person would be angry no matter who lit the room on fire. It was an excuse; he did not want to stay.
“Watson, put away your lousy acting skills. Since I’m here today, don’t think that you can leave so easily! Of course, it’s fine if you leave now. I’ll announce that the third round of the competition will be suspended. Watson, you will win the competition.” King Landhar III sneered.
He knew how to deal with Watson. As expected, when Watson heard that, he stopped in his tracks with a troubled look on his face. “Since His Majesty has said that, then I’ll reluctantly stay.”
What was so difficult about staying with the King? Why did Watson look so miserable? Many people did not understand.
At that moment, Kiana, who had been holding King Landhar III’s arm, let go of her father’s hand. She dragged her golden-red skirt and walked elegantly to Watson’s side. “I have something to tell you. Please follow me.”
“Your Highness, if you have something to say, just say it here.”
Watson, who had seen Kiana’s true appearance, did not want to be alone with that princess.
“It’s about you. It’s embarrassing to say it in front of so many people! Of course, if you want me to say it here, I can satisfy you. Father organized that competition to help me choose a suitable husband, but I have fallen in love with you now. So I asked Father if you could marry me immediately, no matter the results of the competition.”
Kiana swept her gaze across the crowd with a dignified expression, showing the difference between her status as a princess and everyone else. Then, her cheeks turned red, revealing a shy and weak expression. She bit her moist lip, the breath she exhaled gradually became hotter. In the eyes of outsiders, that was a sign of Kiana’s shyness. Watson knew that Kiana was ill. She was enjoying the shameful act of confessing in public.
Without a choice, Watson could only cover Kiana’s mouth without waiting for her to finish speaking. He carried her in his arms and flew into the empty forest in the Sword Saint’s courtyard.
That scene dumbfounded everyone.
“Your Majesty, Watson seems to have carried the princess away.” Charlotte gulped.
“I know.” King Landhar III nodded.
“Your Majesty, aren’t you angry?” Lana also asked weakly.
Not only did Watson show his resistance to eating with King Landhar III, but he also carried the princess away in front of everyone. It was extraordinary that King Landhar III did not look angry; he seemed rather happy.
“D*mn it, so Princess Kiana likes Watson! I thought it was me! I can no longer be with her.”
Casey stared at Watson and Kiana’s back, which quickly disappeared from everyone’s sight. He could not help but stomp his feet in sadness. As soon as he finished his words, King Landhar III turned to look at him, “If I remember correctly, you should be Casey from the Ptolemy family, right? Augustus eliminated you just after entering the second round of the competition. What right does such a weak person like you have to covet my daughter? Are you looking down on the Royal Family?”
King Landhar III’s face was gloomy. It was as if a storm had gathered on his face. The heavy pressure made Casey’s body tremble. His legs weakened, and he knelt on the ground. “Your Majesty, I was wrong. I did not mean it that way.”
“It’s good that you did not mean it that way. Not everyone can touch my daughter! Alright, leave some privacy for Watson and Kiana. I’ll wait in the living room. Let the chefs prepare the food.”
With his hands behind his back, King Landhar III walked into the distance. Casey, who was kneeling on the ground, had an aggrieved look on his face. Why should Watson and Kiana be allowed to be together, but not him? Was it because Watson was stronger, more handsome, younger, and had all sorts of magical abilities? Other than that, how could Watson be better than him?
The King had been angry too. That was too strange.
Charlotte and Lana looked at each other. They could feel the preferential treatment King Landhar III gave to Watson. When Watson took Kiana away, they were all sweating profusely. They were afraid that King Landhar III would be angry and execute Watson, but he acted as if nothing had happened. Instead, he punished Casey for his insignificant words. That moody behavior made everyone worried about the upcoming performance.
With a heavy heart, everyone followed King Landhar III to the living room.
At the same time, Watson had brought Kiana to the hot spring in the Sword Saint’s courtyard. Water vapor was everywhere, and the wooden courtyard revealed many trees. Since it was not time for bathing and King Landhar III was there, there was no one in the spring. It was the most suitable environment for a conversation.
“Princess Kiana, I don’t know what you want to do.”
After arriving at the hot spring, Watson put Kiana down on the platform near the water surface.
Kiana’s face turned even redder. She reached out to cover her heart and looked at Watson with infatuation as she approached him. “My heartbeat! As expected, Watson, you are fated to be my future husband! Can you kidnap me in front of everyone again? Of course, this time, you can use ropes to bind my body and make it more exciting.”
After getting close to Watson, Kiana took the initiative to stretch her hands and lean against him. Her heart-shaped golden-red eyes and slightly raised lips were like rippling waves. If Kiana had a good personality, then her appearance and smile at that moment were enough to charm thousands of men.
“Your Highness, please have some self-respect! I’m not that kind of person to tie another person.”
“It doesn’t matter. I can teach you what you don’t know. I just need to train you to be the kind of person I like! Or are you rejecting me because you have someone else you like? Is it one of the few women who stood by your side just now?” Kiana asked. Suddenly, she lowered her head slightly. Her gem-like beautiful eyes were hidden in the shadows. A dark color appeared on her tender but delicate face. “If that’s the case, I have no choice but to get rid of them. It’s safer to kill them all when I don’t know who seduced you.”
How terrifying!
That princess did not seem to be a simple masochist. She even had a tendency to appear sick and fragile.
Watson felt the goosebumps on his body. He was not worried about his own safety, but he had to consider the people around him. As the princess, Kiana was a powerful force. Even if it was an elite like Christina, she might still fall for it. Furthermore, there were many ways to kill people, including poisoning, shooting arrows, sneak attacks, and so on.
He had to stop Kiana from thinking further away.
“Princess Kiana, you’ve misunderstood. Those people are all my friends. None of them are the people I like.”
“Oh, so that’s it! Watson, let’s play a binding game.” Kiana smiled slightly and handed her hands to Watson. The dark expression on her face turned into a bright smile, and in an instant, it seemed as if the world had brightened up.
Why did such a beautiful person have to be a pervert? Watson could not help but complain in his heart.
“Your Highness, do you really have to do that?”
“Are you unwilling? Alright, as expected, it has to be because you have other women in your heart. I’ll go tell Father now and have him kill all the women in that courtyard.”
“Stop, Your Highness, you win.”
…
“It’s already been half an hour. Why is Watson not back yet? Did something happen between him and the Princess?”
In the living room, Christina was eating the food prepared by the palace chef. She was worried, so the food in her mouth tasted like wax.
Other people were equally confused. Antonio put down the knife and fork in his hand after eating two pieces of meat., “Your Majesty, seeing that Watson and the Princess have been away for a while, they might have forgotten about the time to eat. Do you want me to call for them?”
“No need. Before I came, I went to visit the Campbell family. I have already eaten there, so you don’t need to worry about them. As for Watson, he won’t be hungry even if he doesn’t eat a meal.”
King Landhar III did not touch the meat on the plate in front of him. He just picked up the red wine cup, shook it gently, and took a bite.
He had gone to the Campbell family to visit Augustus. They were very touched by his arrival. Not only did they treat him to a meal, but they also gave him the complete data of Augustus’ transformation.
After getting the experimental data, King Landhar III immediately rushed to the Sword Saint’s courtyard.
“I’ve been busy. I’ve visited Augustus and asked about the experimental situation. That way, not only can I get what I want, but I can also receive their gratitude. After all, I didn’t come to the Sword Saint’s courtyard first. I went to their home first. That special honor is not something that ordinary people can get! As for coming here, my goal is also apparent.”
As he pondered, King Landhar III’s gaze swept over Antonio and Reid. His gaze was like that of a hunter who was watching his prey. He wanted Kiana and Watson to be together. On the one hand, he wanted to increase the relationship between the two of them. On the other hand, he also wanted to send Watson away so that it would be convenient for him to do what he needed to do next.
“Antonio, Reid, I heard that your strength has been greatly improved recently. It seems like you have made a breakthrough. I wonder if you have broken through to diamond-tier and achieved starlight-tier yet?”
As soon as the words left the King’s mouth, Lily and the others, who had been eating quietly a moment ago, stopped what they were doing and pricked up their ears. They knew that what King Landhar III would say next would be the secrets of the kingdom’s higher-ups that they would never be able to hear otherwise.
“Your Majesty, you are too kind. Antonio and I have not advanced to starlight-tier yet. We only relied on the power of our weapons to show off our strength.”
“Your weapons? Does that mean that the weapons that you have recently obtained are platinum-tier weapons that I sold in the Kingdom?”
“Sort of.”
Reid and Antonio looked at each other and replied perfunctorily. Their weapons were created by Watson and had nothing to do with the platinum-tier weapons that King Landhar III had mentioned. However, that matter involved Watson’s ability; they could not tell the truth.
“Yes, yes, yes. If it’s not, then it’s not. What does it mean? Since your words are so unclear, I wonder if you can show me? Don’t worry. I’m just taking a look.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
King Landhar III had already asked for it. Even if Reid and Antonio wanted to refuse, they could not do so. They could only clench their teeth and hand over the weapons in their hands.
First, it was Antonio’s weapon. His weapon was already in his hand. It was a rather plain-looking staff. After the King touched it, he repeatedly stroked it. His eyes lit up, and he praised it repeatedly. Next was Reid’s weapon. Reid’s weapon looked much taller than Antonio’s. Reid pulled it out from the void. The threads were faintly discernible and contained a fatalistic aura; they circled and disappeared in the palm of King Landhar III.
“It seems that your weapons are excellent. You should know that as the monarch of the kingdom, my safety has always been under threat. Some people want to assassinate me, and spies from other countries are lurking around me at all times. Therefore, I want a powerful weapon to protect me. Is that too much to ask?”
“It’s not too much.”
“I know that Watson has some experience in weapon manufacturing, and I want Watson to make a suitable weapon for me! That might not be appropriate, so I’ll just lay everything out on the table. In fact, the weapons that I displayed in the palace were not made by the kingdom’s craftsmen after I suggested an improved method. They were all made by Watson.”
As soon as King Landhar III’s voice fell, the sound of knives and forks falling to the ground could be heard from the side. Charlotte, Lana, Lily, and even Casey all had looks of disbelief on their faces. Those platinum-tier weapons had appeared in the kingdom quite recently. They thought that King Landhar III was a man of great talent who had made the improvements. They had not expected it to be Watson.
Not only was he powerful, but he was also proficient in forging. What kind of monster was he?
When they looked to the side, they saw that Christina, Antonio, and Reid seemed unsurprised by the news. It was as if they had known about that for a long time. Charlotte and the others were even more certain that King Landhar III was right, especially Lily. She muttered to herself, “No wonder Watson was able to change the tattered bracelet that I was tricked into buying into a better bracelet.”
He did not care about the opinions of the people around him; King Landhar III said, “Reid, Antonio, Watson has such a powerful forging ability. I wanted him to forge a weapon that was even more powerful than the other platinum weapons, but he refused. But you say that it is not too much.”
“Well, that is a bit too much.”
“Since you also think it’s too much, then how about this? One of these weapons will belong to me from now on. Watson won’t make it for me, so it’s not too much for me to choose one of the existing weapons! As for which weapon to choose, I think that thread is pretty good. It can be hidden in the void and is not eye-catching. It’s a good way to use it as a defense.”
King Landhar III picked up the Thread of Destiny with a satisfied look on his face. Reid, on the other hand, widened his eyes and became anxious.
That Thread of Destiny was something that he had painstakingly gathered ten holy relics for Watson to create. After a few days of getting used to its effects, he had already gotten used to it. Without that weapon, his strength would be reduced by several times. How could he agree to that?
“Your Majesty, it seems that my Thread of Destiny is stronger, but Antonio’s Crown Staff is even more powerful than mine! Not only can his Crown Staff communicate with the origin of all seven magic elements in the world, but it also records all the magic in the world. That staff is a living encyclopedia of magic. Anyone who has that staff, even if they are just ordinary iron-tier, will become the strongest mage.”
“Is that so? Then it seems that Crown Staff is the better choice for me.”
Reid’s explanation made the eyes of King Landhar III light up, while the others around him were puzzled. A staff could turn a person into the strongest mage without even needing to practice. Was that true? If it were true, what level would that staff be?
“Reid, you b*stard! You sold out my weapon information just so that your weapon would not be taken away! Since that’s the case, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
“Your Majesty, even though my Crown Staff is powerful and its ability is the same as what Reid said, it only has a powerful magic attack. When dealing with assassinations and ambushes, a powerful defensive ability is the best solution. I think that Reid’s Thread of Destiny is more suitable than the Crown Staff in that aspect. The Thread of Destiny is not only good at hiding but also has the effect of connecting to one’s fate. As long as one is entangled by the Thread of Destiny, his fate will be firmly controlled by you, Your Majesty! Whether it’s through interrogation to get him to reveal the information or to kill him with a single thought, it’s very convenient.”
“You’re right. It seems that I should choose the Thread of Destiny.”
“No, Your Majesty. Don’t be deceived by Antonio. If we’re talking about getting criminals to reveal their feelings, one can use some magic to do that, not to mention killing the enemy. How can the Thread of Destiny be more convenient than a large-scale magical attack! Your Majesty, from its appearance, the Crown Staff is much more powerful than the Thread of Destiny. Antonio has been using magic to disguise its appearance. The real Crown Staff is like that.”
As he spoke, Reid stretched out a finger toward the Crown Staff. The sword aura whistled past, and the simple appearance of the Crown Staff gradually distorted and collapsed. In its place was a staff wrapped by seven elements, the head of the staff appeared to be a magnificent magic throne. Every ray of light emitted from it could cause a riot of magical elements in the air. Charlotte and the other mages could feel the fluctuations.
When they saw the real appearance of the staff, they felt as if they were worshipping a god. Their bodies instinctively wanted them to kneel. It did not matter what kind of distrust they had toward the staff, but at that moment, they all understood that the staff’s ability was perhaps even stronger than what Reid had described.
Antonio decided to do the same. He waved his hand at the Thread of Destiny, and the magic radiance descended.
“Reid, you said that I hid the original appearance of the Crown Staff. Aren’t you doing the same with the Thread of Destiny?”
Whoosh!
Threads crisscrossed and covered the entire Sword Saint’s courtyard. Charlotte and the others who were lamenting about the Crown Staff suddenly stopped moving because they realized that an unknown thread suddenly connected their bodies. Those threads all went up into the sky, which was an unknown height. As the lines appeared, they felt as if someone was controlling them. They looked fearful.
“Alright, stop arguing. I don’t care which of your weapons is better. I just want to get a weapon. You just need to tell me which one to give me.”
“The Thread of Destiny!”
“The Crown Staff!”
Almost instantly, Antonio and Reid gave the opposite answer. They stared at each other with reddened eyes.
King Landhar III could not help but smile. That was the first time he saw those two old fellows like that. After all, those two were important figures in the kingdom, and there were very few things they valued so much, let alone arguing endlessly.
“Only Watson can do that. I feel like taking those two weapons now.”
Those were two starlight-tier weapons. Even King Landhar III could not remain calm. However, he knew that it was impossible to take the two weapons. He could only let Reid and Antonio argue about it. It would be best if the two fought; the more intense the fight, the higher the probability of him taking the weapons away.
However, Reid and Antonio were not fools. After arguing for a while, they understood what King Landhar III was thinking. They immediately looked at each other and saw the meaning in each other’s eyes.
“Your Majesty, I understand that you need a weapon for self-defense. However, as the representatives of the kingdom, Reid and I also need weapons to arm ourselves! Reid and I came up with a compromise. We won’t give our weapons to you, but you can ask Watson to make a stronger weapon. Is that enough?”
“That is a good idea, but what if Watson doesn’t agree to it?”
“Please rest assured, Your Majesty. If Watson doesn’t agree, we will force him to agree! As his masters, he will listen to our words.”
“Then it’s a deal.”
King Landhar III returned the weapon in his hand. The three of them looked at each other and revealed bright smiles. The problem had come to an end. A world where only Watson was injured had appeared.
..
At the hot spring in the Sword Saint’s courtyard…
It was a warm spring, but Watson could not help but sneeze twice. “What’s going on? Why do I suddenly have a bad feeling?”
He shivered as he looked at the hot spring in front of him. Kiana’s body was bound by a wind-elemental rope. He said, “Princess Kiana, you’ve been trapped in the hot spring for almost an hour. Shouldn’t the punishment be over?”
At that moment, Kiana was tied up and unable to move. The wind-elemental rope sealed even her mouth. Since her entire body was immersed in the hot spring, Kiana’s golden-red dress was completely soaked and stuck to her newly developed body that was filled with the scent of youth. Her hair was also wet and stuck to her face, giving any man an evil feeling to want to conquer her immediately.
Kiana could only make some sound. Watson waved his hand and removed the wind attribute rope tied around her mouth. Only then did he hear what Kiana said clearly.
“Watson, I can bear the punishment. Next, you can even make the punishment even more cruel. For example, you can turn the rope that trapped me into a fire-elemental one, or you can make spikes grow on it…”
Kiana’s face, which had been soaked for a long time, turned red like a cooked prawn. However, there was no hint of pain on her face. Instead, she seemed to enjoy it, and her eyes were shining.
“I’m sorry, Your Highness. I can’t do that. Besides, we’ve been out for a long time. It’s better to go back.”
Watson sighed. He could not do such a thing. Furthermore, if he went too far, King Landhar III would not let him go. He would definitely plot against him again and again.
“Alright, it’s indeed a little late. If we don’t go back now, Father will be worried! Let’s leave it at that for now. We’ll carry out more exciting projects next time.” Kiana thought for a moment and nodded.
She was a pervert who had a tendency to be abused, but that did not mean that she was a fool without common sense. Generally speaking, she would not reveal that side of herself in front of others, even if it was someone close to her, just like how she did not do anything outrageous in front of Charlotte and the others. Only Watson was special to her.
There would be no next time.
As he complained in his heart, Watson untied Kiana, removed the rope on her body, and brought her out of the hot spring. Even though he could not afford to offend Kiana because she had the backing of her father, King Landhar III, he needed to run and stay far away from her in the future.
However, Kiana said, “I’ve been holding it in for several years; I can finally vent it out.” She was smiling, but her tears streamed down her face. She was somewhat flustered. “Your Highness, why are you crying?”
“Watson, you don’t understand me. I’m a princess, but I have such a hobby. I know it’s wrong, but I can’t control it! Normally, I can’t reveal it in the palace. My brothers know that I am like this. Even though they say they understand me, when I go to them and ask them to punish me, they always look troubled and use all kinds of excuses to avoid it. Up until now, only you listened to my request and satisfied me.”
Kiana wiped her face. There was a different emotion in her eyes compared to the excitement when she was being abused. She was touched.
‘It’s not a big deal to help her occasionally. After all, that is not a bad habit of murder and arson. It’s just a masochistic tendency.’ Kiana’s situation made Watson feel sympathetic.
There were all kinds of people in his previous life. Masochistic people, people who liked to abuse, people who wanted to be abused, and even people who liked the same sex. Watson thought it was acceptable.
As a princess, Kiana had such a fetish, but she did not tell anyone else. She had always been hiding it and was quite pitiful. The only person who could understand and tolerate her was probably him. Watson did not have any special fetishes, and it was difficult for him to marry Kiana, but he was happy to see her as a friend.
Watson made up his mind to help Kiana in the future as long as no one knew about it. That would be their secret.
However, as soon as he had that thought, a voice filled with doubt and anger came from behind him.
“Watson, what are you doing?”
His body stiffened, thinking that it could not be such a coincidence. Watson turned his head stiffly and found a group of people behind him, led by King Landhar III. Among them, Christina was staring at him fiercely, clenching her fists. Charlotte and Lily turned their heads away, blushing. Antonio and Reid were pretending to cough, while Casey was silently wailing.
“I, I was…”
Watson wanted to explain what had just happened to everyone, but he fell into silence when he thought that everyone might not understand Kiana’s situation.
At that moment, Kiana, who was next to him, changed her appearance. She wiped the tears on her face and ran to King Landhar III. “Father, you’re finally here. Watson bullied me just now! After he brought me here, he tied me up and threw me into the hot spring. No matter how much I begged for mercy, he did not save me. I did not expect him to be such a terrifying person.”
“Watson, how could you do such a thing to the Princess? You have no sense of shame.” Christina blamed Watson.
“That’s right. We’re still here. At least wait for us to leave—” Halfway through her sentence, Charlotte glared at Lily. “We can’t leave either. Even if Princess Kiana said that she liked you, you can’t treat her like that. Don’t think that you can do whatever you want just because she likes you.”
Following closely behind Lily, all sorts of criticisms were directed at Watson. He was so angry that his lips were trembling, and smoke was coming out of his orifices. Kiana, who was the instigator of all that, turned her head away from King Landhar III’s embrace and stuck her tongue out at him with an apologetic look on her face.
Watson understood that Kiana did that because she wanted to maintain her image in front of everyone. She could only blame everything on him. Even though she was angry, Watson could only bear with it for Kiana’s sake.
“Your Majesty, this is all my fault. Reid and I did not teach Watson well. We will definitely teach him a stricter lesson. Please, on account that Watson is a child, don’t be too harsh on him,” Antonio said after everyone denounced Watson.
“Antonio, I can let it go for your sake. However, if I don’t respond to my daughter’s bullying, would I be worthy of being her father? Therefore, I will spare Watson from the death penalty, but I will still punish him. First, Watson must get first place in that competition and marry my daughter. If he can’t do it, I will give him the death penalty.” King Landhar III sneered.
Kiana’s entire body was wet, and her curves could be seen at a glance. If that kind of thing were to be spread out, it would damage the royal family’s prestige, and it would also have an impact on Kiana’s reputation. Therefore, Watson had to take responsibility.
“Secondly, Watson has to make a powerful weapon for me until I am satisfied. The strength of the weapon will be similar to Reid’s and Antonio’s weapons. The one in your hands will do!”
“Yes, Your Majesty. We will urge Watson to do it.”
They had reached an agreement, so there was nothing much to say.
“As for the third request, I haven’t thought about it yet. I will tell you after I have thought about it! Kiana, if Watson bullies you again in the future, you can tell Father. I will uphold justice for you.”
“Thank you, Father.” Kiana nodded obediently.
“That’s all for now. I’ll wait for the surprise that Watson will bring me to the competition tomorrow.” Then, King Landhar III left with Kiana.
As he left the Sword Saint’s courtyard, King Landhar III burst into laughter, causing the passers-by to cast sidelong glances at him. After discovering his identity, those people shouted, “Greetings, Your Majesty!” Then, they knelt on the ground.
“Watson, you’ve always been the one who made me suffer.. This time, it’s your turn to suffer! You’ll have to take responsibility for my daughter.”
