Then, sitting in the innermost position is their king
Armored Dragon King Perugius·Dora
The opposite is me, the second princess Asura Kingdom
Ariel. Anemoi. Asura
On the way here, I thought a lot
I just thought about it a lot, but that doesn't mean I understood anything
Even why I want to become this king, my will is not strong
For this reason, I asked Aisha. Greyrat before
Her attitude is better than I thought, and she seems to be really helping me think of my [reason]
No... don't think about it so much now
The key to my success is right in front of me. As long as I succeed, I can give you reasons and so on later.
Keeping my expression firm, ignoring the eyes focused on me, and maintaining my royal demeanor, I walked between the 12 elves and saluted Perugius
"Thank you very much for allowing this meeting."
"That's quite polite. What's going on this time? Are you inviting me to tea...?"
I tried my best to calm down all my emotions and calm myself down
Nervousness is not a good emotion that can help you gain benefits in negotiations, not to mention that I can't even talk about negotiations this time.
Perugius's attitude proves that he doesn't care much about my arrival... but it doesn't matter
Taking a deep breath, I spoke
"In order for me to become the king of the Asura Kingdom, please give me a helping hand, Master Perugius."
"Hey... let me ask you a question"
Perugius put his elbows on the throne, tilted his neck, dragged his chin with his hands, and asked
"What is the most important element of being a king?"
"That is... the inheritance of will"
Before coming here, Aisha. Greyrat asked me this question
I'm not sure if this is the normal answer, but it's the answer that speaks loudest in my mind
"Oh..."
During the quiet audience, only Perugius's voice like exhaling echoed.
From his expression, I saw some disdain
Is it wrong...?
"Huh, inheritance of will...?"
He looked down at me and smiled
"In other words, your desire to become a king is ultimately influenced by others? Can such a guy be called a real king?"
There is a bit of contempt in his tone, but if this wavers, then he is a real and incompetent king.
"Yes, Master Perugius, in the final analysis, my wishes are things that can be influenced by others.
It may be far from the real king in the eyes of the world... but..."
I took a deep breath and said what was on my mind
"If I am the king of the people who have entrusted their will to me, it doesn't matter whether I am a real king or not! But I have confidence, the confidence of a king!"
"Oh..."
Perugius looked bored, put his chin in his hand unhappily, and asked further
"In other words, you want me to lend my power to a stupid and arrogant king?"
"Yes, it is precisely because of my stupidity and arrogance that I need all kinds of people to help me. I have walked this way along the way, and you, Lord Perugius, you will be the most important key for me to move to the throne."
Perugius's expression has not changed, and his movements still maintain a condescending attitude.
"Do you think I will really lend you my power after your answer?"
"Yes, this is what I really think, without any lies. This is my Ariel. Anemoi. Asura's consciousness."
Tell all what is on your mind, there is no doubt that you will probably be rejected by Perugius
But there is such a voice in my heart, it makes me say what I am thinking, and that is enough
"If you go against what you want, then you don't need Perugius-sama's power."
After saying the last sentence, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief
Perugius opened his eyes, and the 12 elves were also shaken
"Are you saying that you don't need my power to become a king?"
"If the ideals are different, then there is no need, but I will still walk on the road to becoming a king, even if I die on this road."
Perugius stopped supporting his chin with his hands and slowly stood up
He closed his lips tightly and opened his eyes wide
Although he didn't make a fist, he looked domineering
He raised his hand with a "swish" sound
For a moment, I thought it was because of my offense that Perugius wanted the 12 elves to execute me on the spot.
"Well said! I have indeed received your faith!
I'm Armored Dragon King Perugius. Dora
I swear to my old friend Cavanis Silian Asura that I will definitely help you!"
