Maxwell smiled widely, ignoring Armano's sharp gaze to him, "I want to propose your daughter, Sir!"
Arthur, The Atrazal's Emperor, shocked his head. "If you want to kill him, that's okay, Duke. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
"I hope you are joking, Your Imperial Majesty."
"My dear Cecilia, this young man need to learn how to be a discipline man! How come he kidnapped me when I'm still discussing a serious matter with the prime minister!" The emperor let out a heavy sigh after complaining.
"Oh, you are overreacting, Your Majesty! You were walking on the hallway when I met you!" Max said with knitted brow.
"I'm on my way back from the bathroom, Maxwell Glacias Alexander!"
Max shrugged his shoulder, "Don't worry. I already asked Nolan to take over everything."

That's why I sneak up from that terrible forest to find her."Max try his best to not laugh. How come a fifteen years old girl say something like that?

But, she was reborn for the second times. So, perhaps, immortality is possible…"I can't believe it." Max said when they were walking and planning to go back to Lancia's house."Me, too. But, we have to think about the possibility. They won't be that afraid if the bandits were just a bunch of ordinary men. The people preferred not to fight because they know they'll lose with someone who got the blessing.""Then, we should do teleported them to the other place."Cecilia's eyes widened, "How many people you can move at once?""Ten, I guess. Or perhaps, eleven. I'm not sure. But, we can just take the leader or his vice to talk. If they can't, then we can kill them.""What? Killing people doesn't solve anythin
