After the incident at Royal Grounds Sim was imprisoned by the grate O father The King.
It has been three days in prison………… and seriously it sure is quite over here. “Is it a dream … no! it’s an illusion …… Nah! It’s real … because of me three innocent girls died. No! I killed …... I killed them… it’s my fault ………. just mine. I should die to... It’s meaning less to stay alive...” as I was talking to myself, I heard footsteps coming closer and closer. “Someone’s here, Right! I should ask him to kill me”. The footsteps stopped and I heard “Running Away? Dying won’t solve anything. They are the ones who chose you, you shouldn’t disappoint them, take responsibility and save them, THEY ARE ALIVE”. As I heard the words the burden of heart lifted, I was glad but I couldn’t stop these tears falling from my eyes.
As I looked up the person who informed of this news was The Queen Kazuki Erica. The Queen said “I believe Argenta’s Choice but I do want to know, how were you able to enter the Castle?”. I didn’t want to lie anymore so I told her “I am a Captain of The Crime & Investigation Department of The Knights”. The Queen replied “You lost your Badge...”. Afterwards she casted a spell Presence of The Queen “Restrains Released” and the chains shattered like glass and vanished. Then the Queen said “Follow me, I know how you can save them” and I followed her. I was dirty since I was locked for 3 days so I took a bath and got myself cleaned and then I sat Infront of the Queen at Queen Private Quarters. The Queen started the conversation with “The King still hates you”. I replied with “I am Sorry...”
“You are weak” she said and I replied “I will do anything. Please tell me how can I save them.” She said “To save them you have to defeat the Emperor of the West”.
I was shocked when I heard it because the Emperor is the strongest in the world. The Knights the organization I work for is governed by four Emperors. Emperor of The East, West, North and South. An Emperor can destroy a whole continent with one swing.
My resolution starts from saving the princess and the twins and ends with saving the princess and the twins that was final so I stood up and replied to the Queen “Even if it’s the Emperor or The Demon Lord I will put my life on the line to save them”. The door opens suddenly and Aria enters, our eyes meet and I slowly started walking towards her. Tears start falling from eyes. I was greeted with “It’s pathetic you know, Only the weak cry” I embraced her as I replied “I am sorry” our emotional meeting was interrupted by the Queen as she said “It’s the reality, you are weak” These words did mock my heart.
Aria’s physical ability and magic recovery is strong that is why she is the only one who re-gained conscious.
“Let’s get started with the situation we are facing, shall we?” the queen said and she started explaining.
“First, you became the Prince of the Country after you formed the complete marriage contract with Princess. Second your magic is completely sealed and third your magic recovery is tremendously fast.” I asked “Is it a good thing?” I was replied with “How fast your magic recovers, is indeed considered to be a turning point of any battlefield.” Aria asked “My Queen If he has such great magic recovery, why hasn’t the princess gained conscious?”.
The Queen replied “When he formed the contract with Argenta and you sisters, the magic recovery detected four individuals, One him, second Argenta, and you sisters, when he battled the King, Argenta was the only one who he had complete contract with, a complete contract is needed for the wife to receive the magic of husband, you sisters still had partial contract with him, so you didn’t received his magic but instead he used you three’s magic aganist the King and you three went completely dry, his magic recovery recovered magic for four people, since his magic is sealed he didn’t received his share, you sisters had partial contract with him so you also didn’t received your share instead magic of four went to one person, even Argenta couldn’t withstand such high amount of magic, so she went unconscious, your magic is pure so her body didn’t explode otherwise she could have died on spot, they are in state of rest until their magic levels are back to original. It is not a critical situation so you can be at ease.”
While hearing the conversation I was so tense, and frightened that their situation might end up even worse but The Queen and Aria comforted me.
I asked Queen Erika “Your Majesty you said that you know a way to save them, if there is even a percent of chance that I can save them I would like to give it my all” the Queen replied “There are three ways you can save them.
First is that you remove the seal that is blocking your magic. You at least require an 8th Tier Magician to do that, I could have removed the spell if I was not casting Recovery, and Shield magic continuously to protect your future wives and country.
Second is to increase the number of people you can share your magic with, Recovery magic can recover an infinite amount of magic but the higher the level of magic a body can sustain the more time the Magic Recovery will take to recover that, since years of training is required to increase magic sustainability level so training you to that level is currently not possible, as we fear that empires against us can strike war at any time as we are currently vulnerable. The only way is to find compatible partners and form contract with them so as to increase magic sustainability.
The Third is to Nullify your contract with them and allow another individual to take care of them, in simple throw away your responsibility on someone else, when you nullify your contract your magic inside them will also disappear and they will regain conscious as soon as the other party forms the contract by kissing them, I mean all three of them. So, what do you suppose you can do?”
I cannot undo the seal myself and I don’t want to give them to someone else I wanted to go with the second possibility. I asked Aria “If you are okay with me…. I don’t want to give you all to anyone else. I will definitely save Miu and Aries.” I was so tense and scarred that if she didn’t want to be with me but in the end, it is their decision. Aria replied “You really are one of a kind and a dependable person the princess trusts you, so do Aries and I”.
Aria was embarrassed, it felt like she was crying but those were tears of joy, she was glad that Sim was not a person who would leave them stranded.
