The Ruler of the Two Continents
CHAPTER 54 - THE CHOICE OF PRINCESS CHARLOTTE

“ General Luzen?..did you hear me?” Asked the King while looking at the general's puzzled look.

“ Ahh, yes of course I heard you noble.” The general looked clumsy and uncomfortable.

“ Why don't you seem happy to hear this ? ”

“ Ahh, I...” The general does not know what to say to the King, but he is not ready to marry Princess Charlotte, because what is on his mind right now is Merlin.

The general took a deep breath, and exhaled slowly. His head is getting cold now.

“ Look noble, I'm sorry before, not that I intend to refuse princess Charlotte's wishes, but actually I already have a lover, and I have promised her that I will marry her after I'm from this continent. Gardden's problem is, he's my closest friend, and I know Gardden really likes Charlotte's daughter, I'd be very upset if it turns out your daughter is marrying me, so it seems like I am still thinking about this noble thing.. “. The General is clearly on the King.

“ Hahahaha..it turns out so General..you are very concerned about the feelings of others” the King even laughed.

“ General, is not a leader like us allowed to marry more than one wife?.You know General, my wife was three.and they should have accepted my decision “ replied the King.

“ More than one wife? Is princess Charlotte willing if I marry another woman besides her?.“ Ask the General to frown.

“ I know my son very well, she is not a selfish woman General, I am sure it is not a problem for him” explained the King.

“ General, you know..my condition has been like this, maybe my time is not much else.and so far it has been difficult to find someone Charlotte chose to be her companion, so please General.

“ But your honor.”

“ You know the General, for the rest of my life, only twice have I begged someone, the first one to my son Charlotte when I asked her to get married, so that this kingdom has a leader, he said,…and the second plea is to you which I have just said.So, please General whatever your reason for leaving aside your problem first, do you not care about the request of a dying King?.”

The general was getting confused and confused, he lowered his head and closed his eyes for a moment..

“ Well your majesty, I will consider, and I will find a solution to my problem.”

“ What else should be considered General, you should be willing..When men out there compete to get the love of my son, but instead you are chosen, is not it a fortune for you?.”

After a while of thinking…

“ Yes, well your highness.”

“ General Luzen, I know you are a very good choice for my daughter, even if my daughter does not choose you, then I will persuade her to stay married to you, because of a man like you who I really look forward to and hope to be my daughter Charlotte's best friend.”.

The Southern Gozan King smiled with a frown beside his lips, finally after a while, The general went out of the room after asking permission to end his conversation with the King and he stepped out as if burdened with heavy thoughts.

In the hallway of the castle corridor, the General meets Ryon who is walking towards the King's room.

“ Ah, Ryon...severa, Can I ask you a favor?” The general intercepted Ryon.

“ Yes, what's up General?” Ask Ryon.

“ Can I meet with princess Charlotte this afternoon, but I want to have a one-on-one talk with her, can you arrange a place for us to meet?” The general made his point.

“ Well, thanks Ryon “ General patted Ryon on the shoulder and walked off the corridor.

The afternoon began to rise, a rather warm temperature spread in the air…

In a room on the top floor of Gozan's royal castle, the general next to Ryon knocked on the door made of thick wood carved in luxury.

“ Log in.” the soft voice of a woman is heard from inside the room.

Kreeks….

The general opened the door slowly.

“ Alright General, I'm sorry “ Ryon said as he stepped away.

“ Thank you Ryon “ said the General while holding the doorknob of the room.

“ Sorry princess, I'm a little asking for your time to talk.” The general who had stepped inside stood in front of Princess Charlotte who was already sitting on a chair.

“ Yes, no problem Mr. Luzen, sit down.” Princess Charlotte allowed the General to sit on his side chair which was only blocked by a small table on which there were two cups with beautiful carvings and silver-plated kettle teapots.

A large window stretched out in the room, delivering light from the outside illuminating the entire room that looked luxurious.

“ What do you want to talk about Mr Luzen ?” the princess poured the still steaming tea into the cup, from the silver-plated kettles.

“ This is about what your father talked about, he has said that you have chosen a future husband.” The general is a bit awkward to look at the princess's face.

“ Hmm, yeah, and you must already know who my choice is, Mr Luzen?” the princess graciously provided tea to the General.

“ Please drink..” sahut princess.

“ Thank you “

“ Well, your father has already conveyed it to me, but daughter, forgive me before, not that I refuse your wish Princess Charlotte, but it seems for the time being very hard for me to accept you as my future wife.”.

“ Hah?.you do not want me lord Luzen? “ princess's beautiful bright brown eyes appear rounded.

“ I don't mean princess,... Anyone would want you, but for now if I marry you then there will be two hurt feelings. I already have someone I'll marry when I get home, his name is Merlin, I can't imagine his breakdown when I find out about this, I can't imagine how disappointed he would be if he found out about our wedding “

“ Mr. Luzen, you know how many men have tried to propose to me, but there is nothing I like to be my companion, but since I first saw you, I have never seen you, I immediately liked the figure of a man like you and I finally decided to choose you to be my future husband.”

“ I understand princess, but whether you can't open your heart to my best friend Gardden, he's also a man who looks like me in all respects, he's a brave, strong, and kind man..he is also handsome, and you also know that he managed to kill the leader of Fangs, isn't there a lot of advantages that princess has?” firmly General.

“ I know who defeated the leader of Fangs, you were the one who crippled him lord Luzen, lord Gardden only killed him when the giant had been dying, I saw all from the castle window.”.

The general seemed to be hit by a big hammer, it turns out that Princess Charlotte already knew.
