Chapter 368 The Royal Family
"Even though you already know me, I\'d still like to introduce myself," Yuan said. " I\'m Yuan, and I\'m the leader of the Hunter Party \'The Celestial Blades\' that you are all familiar with."
She then turned to his wives as well as Leah, and continued, "And these are my wives and girlfriend, and they are members of the hunter party."
Yuan then began introducing his wives to the king and the queen, and when it was time to introduce Leah to the King and the Queen, Leah wore a very nervous expression on her face.
\'It\'s about time he introduced me to the King and The Queen of the Windfall Kingdom!! I\'m so fucking nervous right now! How will he introduce me to the royal family?!\' Leah cried inwardly, feeling very nervous in front of the King and The Queen of the Kingdom she lived in.
After all, as a commoner, being able to see the king and the queen from a distance is already a very big achievement for a commoner, not to mention standing in front of the King and the Queen.
\'What will he say to them about me? Will he say that I\'m only his friend and currently traveling with him? Or perhaps…\' Before she could finish her thoughts, Yuan already opened his mouth.
"And last but not least, this is Leah, my girlfriend, the newest addition to our family," Yuan said with a gentle smile on his face, gazing at Leah lovingly.
\'G-Girlfriend?! Did he just say that I\'m his girlfriend? Am I currently dreaming…?\' Leah cried inwardly, seemingly speechless by Yuan\'s remark.
She can\'t believe that Yuan actually introduced herself as his girlfriend, and it only took her a moment to realize that everything she heard was real, Yuan introducing her as his girlfriend is real!
\'D-Does that mean…does that mean he likes me too? So he indeed loves me too, just like I love him… it seems that I\'m not far away from becoming one of his wives.\' She thought, controlled her excitement, and looked at the King and the Queen with a small smile on her face.
"It\'s a pleasure to meet you, Your Majesty, as well as Your Highness." Leah slightly bowed her head while holding her dress as she greeted the king and the queen with proper etiquette.
"This is unacceptable!"
Suddenly a furious roar resounded throughout the entire throne room, causing everyone to turn toward the direction of the voice and saw an angry nobleman pointing his finger at Yuan with a furious look on his face.
"How dare you lowly commoners! Don\'t you have any manners in front of his majesty?! Get on your knees and beg for forgiveness from his majesty in this instance, for your insolence!!"
"Don\'t you know that in the presence of the king and the king, one has to bow their head to show their respect to the royal family?!" The nobleman shouted, with a vicious grin on his face as he wanted to create trouble for Yuan.
The king and the queen slapped their faces seeing the arrogant behavior of the noble who was demanding Yuan to bow down and ask for their forgiveness.
"Count Dorian, please calm down, there is no need for Yuan to bow down as it was me who invited him to be here." King Richard suddenly spoke, trying to stop this madness as he wanted to create a healthy relationship with Yuan.
"But—"
"Count Dorian, please stop disrespecting the guests like this, it\'s making the situation quite awkward." The Quick spoke, stopping him from speaking any further as it may lead to some unexpected turn of events.
"As you wish, Your Highness…" Count Dorian sighed and gave a hateful look at Yuan as though he was threatening him.
Seeing this, Yuan curled his lips into a provocative grin, which made Count Dorian and some other noblemen really furious.
To them, it\'s the same as Yuan showing them his middle finger.
\'These arrogant bastards, so annoying!\' Lily mumbled inwardly with a furious look on her face.
"I\'ve heard so many rumors about you all, and seeing it up close I can definitely say that you guys are beyond beautiful…" Queen Matilda stood up from her throne with sparkling eyes and walked towards them gracefully.
And once she was standing before them, she continued, "Even though I\'m the Queen of this kingdom and many refer to me as the most beautiful woman in the entire kingdom. But compared to you all, I\'m very far behind in calling myself a beauty."
"Just what your mothers used to eat to give birth to such beautiful ladies? I\'m really curious." She said, touching the hand of Anna Grace with a gentle smile on her face.
\'So soft…It feels almost as though I\'m touching a baby\'s hand! This is unbelievable!\' Queen Matilda was bewildered by the softness and tenderness of Anna Grace\'s hand, which was not only beautiful but also very soft.
A few moments later, The King and Queen led them to the private area where they could have a healthy conversation with them without being disturbed by the arrogant nobles.
After arriving at the Royal Garden where many comfortable chairs had already been arranged by the royal servants for them, it was a great place to have a healthy conversation as the atmosphere around here is very peaceful and calming.
"I\'m very sorry about Count Dorian and his rudeness toward you, Yuan." King Richard apologized to Yuan with a slightly disappointed look on his face, and Queen Matilda placed her hand on his hand to comfort him.
"You don\'t need to apologize on their behalf, after all, you\'re the king of a country. And it was that arrogant bastard who needed to apologize." Yuan calmly replied before taking his seat.
"Thank you for understanding…" King Richard also took his seat with a small smile on his face. He really liked Yuan\'s personality, despite his young appearance he was so mature.
But then, Yuan continued, "However, I do want you to keep them under a limit. A limit that they can\'t cross, or it will only harm your reputation."
"And if you keep overlooking their actions, a day will come when they will demand you to hand over your throne to them and will snatch your authority over the kingdom."
"After all, their greed knows no bounds. They just think too highly of themselves." Yuan said with a serious look on his face.
"Husband, I think Yuan is telling the truth." The Queen nodded, looked at her husband, and said, "You\'ve given them too much freedom which led them to their current arrogant behaviors. And nowadays, they even started disregarding the royal family."
"You\'re right, my wife. I\'ve given too much freedom to them which led them to their current behavior…" King Richard sighed, after hearing his wife\'s opinion about the nobles.
"Well, it\'s fine since you realized that now." Queen Matilda smiled at her husband before retracting her hand.
A few minutes later, a few individuals arrived at the garden wearing very luxurious attire, and from the look of it, it appeared that they were the king\'s concubines and children.
King Richard saw them arriving at the garden and looked at them with a smile, and he said, "Ah, you guys are finally here. Take your seats, and let me introduce you all to our esteemed guests."
"Yuan and Mrs. Yuan, let me introduce you all to my mistresses and my children." He said with a small smile on his face and looked at the woman wearing a beautiful red and white dress.
And he introduced her to Yuan. "This is Giselle, a nobleman\'s daughter from the neighboring kingdom, The Mora Kingdom to be precise."
Then he moved on to the second woman and introduced her to Yuan. "This is Celine, she is the daughter of a well-known merchant from the Lion Heart Empire."
After that, he introduced the next woman to Yuan and his wives. "And this is my third and last Mistress, Aurelia, to tell you the truth she is a powerful freezing mage from the neighboring kingdom."
"I fell in love with her when she helped me when a powerful magical beast attacked our carriage in the middle of a dense forest." King Richard said with a small nostalgic smile on his face, reminiscing the moment when he met Aurelia.
"How romantic…" Yuan smiled, and his wives nodded, sharing the same thought.
"Right? haha!" King laughed, which made Aurelia slightly blush feeling a little embarrassed.
After that, the king looked at his children, especially the handsome young man in the center, and said, "This is my son, Tristan Windfall, The Crown Prince of the Windfall Kingdom."
"And this is my daughter, Fiona Windfall, The first Princess of the Windfall Kingdom." King Richard spoke looking at the tall and beautiful looking young lady beside Prince Tristan, whose cheeks turned slightly red.
After that, the king introduced the other princes and princesses to Yuan and his wives, and in this whole process, none of the princes\' and princesses\' gaze left Yuan and his wives\' figures.
It seems that King Richard currently has a total of five children, three children are males, and the other two children are female.
The third child is a female who is nineteen years old, named Lavinia Windfall, and the fourth and fifth child, they\'re seventeen and fifteen years old, and their name is Phillip Windfall and Oliver Windfall.
The princesses found themselves gazing at Yuan\'s flawless handsome face, and they seemed to can\'t take their eyes away from him… due to them being instantly charmed by Yuan\'s charm.
The same can be said for the princes\', they\'re staring at Anna Grace and the others with a dazed look on their faces.
*Cough* King Richard cleared his throat seeing his children\'s behavior, and said, "Everyone, these are the guests I\'ve talked about with you all yesterday. So be respectful towards them, and don\'t do something stupid even though you\'re a member of the royal family."
After that, Queen Matilda introduced Yuan and his wives to the others on behalf of her husband, King Richard.
\'Well from the interactions between them, I can assume that they all get along quite well…which is almost impossible among the royal family as everyone is aiming for the throne.\' Yuan was surprised by the harmonious atmosphere of the royal family.
