"Husband." Artoria called out.
"Yes... honey." Replied Ha Joon.
"When you headed out a week ago, where did you say you were going?" She asked.
"To...tame a dragon ma'am."
"So I wasn't mistaken," she grabbed his chin, her face close to him as she whispered, pointing towards the bed, "then why have you returned with a child that's calling you master? What freaky things were you up to in the past few days..."
She had his back pushed to the wall, Ha Joon have cold feets as he could barely look her in the eyes.
"Did I ever tell you, you look even beautiful when you're angry?" He spoke.
"it's all for you, now answer my question."
"Fine, that's the dragon I tamed, I know she looks small and all, but she's over a thousand years old basically a grandma, over one thousand times." He defended himself while stylishly pointing at Lyra.
Lyra had no idea what was happening, she simply sat in the bed, her legs dangling.
Artoria took a second to observe her and noticed the scales on her body, "It's always a new thing with your husband." She stepped away, "I'm sorry I doubted you, I should have congratulated you first for successfully taming a dragon."
Ha Joon smiled, feeling like he had won the battle, very rarely does Artoria step down like that.
Approaching the dragon, she gently bowed her head a bit, "My name is Artoria Pendragon, the queen of this empire, I hope you enough your moments as my husband's dragon".
"Pendragon eihh, nice to meet you beautiful lady." Lyra responded.
"Please excuse me, I will inform the rest of this so an announcement can be made to the public about your victory." Artoria began to walk towards the door, and then all of a sudden, she stopped and looked at Ha Joon, "Do not forget, tonight is the night." And with that she walked away.
"Phew, she's gone, thank goddess Merlin also left a while ago, not sure how I'd be able to handle them both."
Ha Joon now looked at the dragon, 'I wonder if it would be wise to leave Lyra alone here while I go take care of somethings'.
(Welfor kingdom, Main capital.)
"My prince, just as you ordered I have sent the message to the king of Camelot. It should arrive at the kingdom in a few days." The royal messenger spoke, on his knees and head bowed.
Valyrxa sat on the bench outside, a book in his hand with two maids standing behind him.
"Is that all?"
"No my prince, the queen has refused to see you again." The messenger said with a sad tone.
"She really is stubborn, isn't one supposed to change while growing up? Or was that also a myth?" He smiled a bit.
"Seeing as you haven't grown at all, it'd say it's a myth, elder brother."
A woman dressed in a robe and wearing sandals suddenly walked in. She had long black hair and jewelry around her neck.
"Daina, why are you dead set on ruining my day?" Valyrxa uttered, though his expression was calm, it was filled with disdain at the same time.
"Is that any way to greet your adorable little sister? Are you perhaps still holding a grudge against me? It's not my fault Father caters to me more you know." Diana dramatically covered her mouth as if about to cry.
"Leave us." Valyrxa said to the maids and messenger and immediately they all left.
With them gone, he looked at his sister, "What do you want? If you're here for me to give you another land, then I'm sorry, you might want to go meet father".
"You speak as though you've ever given me anything your whole life."
"I'm giving you my time right now."
"Wow, how generous of you, I'm getting the all mighty Valyrxa's time? Ohh Lucky me."
Valyrxa glares a bit, "If you don't intend to speak, then I'll gladly take my leave."
"Hahah, I'm just teasing you. Anyway, I came to ask... When are you going to grant my request?" She suddenly opened her fan, covering her mouth with it, "You were supposed to have made the King of Camelot fall in love with me... What's the damn hold up?"
