Chapter 569 Exempt?

Chapter 569 Exempt?

Seeing her act this excited, I couldn't help finding her a bit cute.

Still, this was a serious discussion, so I wouldn't let it show on my face.

Instead, I turned to the fourth prince and asked, "Brother, what do you think of this?"

The fourth prince didn't hold back at all as he raised his hand and gave me a thumbs up as he said, "Brother, good job!"

I didn't know where he learned this from, but seeing the dreaded fourth prince acting like this really was a surreal feeling. It was as if I just couldn't see the fourth prince from the game overlapping with this fourth prince in front of me.

There must be some kind of traumatic event that happened in the progression of the game that I didn't know about...

Was it some kind of hidden event that no player had found before or was it some kind of hidden lore item that no one paid attention to?

I had no way of figuring this out since I was no longer in my old world.

But I cast these thoughts out of my mind in the end.

For now, the fourth prince was a friend of mine and had even become a relative through marriage. For now, it seemed like he was treating me as a genuine friend, so there was no need to be on guard against him.

It could even be said that it was at that moment that I truly trusted the fourth prince.

Though it was only a bit of trust.

Since this matter with Elsa was settled, all that was left was to wait.

I didn't have any other ideas, so there was nothing else for me to really do.

But before this meeting ended, there was one more thing that the fourth prince had to say.

In a sense, I did wrong them since I was saying that to me, gaining glory on the battlefield or whatever I was choosing to do was more important to them.

But this was something that I couldn't yield on.

"I wish to exchange this merit for a position of commander in the army. As long as I'm in a position that is able to control a large number of forces, that will be enough for me."

The fourth prince deeply knitted his brows this time as he looked at me.

After a long silence, he simply asked, "Why?"

I could feel the pressure that was coming from him when he asked this.

This was the aura that the fourth prince should, the aura that I was familiar with.

This was the aura that he had as a royal, one that sets him apart from the others.

I just calmly looked at him and said, "I too feel the responsibility to defend my home."

The fourth prince kept looking at me with narrowed eyes after I said this, as if he didn't believe what I was saying.

So with a sigh, I said, "I have a few cards that I can still play, but I need to be on the battlefield to play them. I need to be there in person to use them effectively."

The fourth prince kept looking at me with narrowed eyes, but eventually he also gave a sigh and said, "Fine, I can accept that. However, I still have to say to take care of yourself, not just for my sister, but also for me since I care for you as a brother."

I gave a touched nod as I said, "I know, I still have people that I want to protect and come back to. I won't take any unnecessary risks."

The girls all looked at me with strange looks, but they resigned themselves in the end.

When men make a decision, their wives should just follow them without a word sometimes.
