The palace worker's face turned much uglier when they saw Dean's hand was holding princess Yuri's bum. Dean regretted that he went out. He never thought he will get stuck in that situation.
Yuri walked in front with the man inside the car leading her and Dean followed behind her with his head down. They got inside the palace. When they got out of the car, Dean found out that the man was Yuri's caretaker and butler name Hu.
Yuri and Dean followed Hu into a room inside the palace. Hu lightly knocked on the door and a man's voice can be heard inside allowing them to enter. Hu opened the door and let Yuri and Dean went inside. He followed behind them and closed the door.
When Dean went inside, he looked at the room and knew it was an office. He looked in front and saw a man was sitting in front of his desk looking at them. That man had a blond hair the same as Yuri. He exudes a lot of charisma just by sitting there.
Dean can also feel a lot of pressures coming from the man. Dean knew that the man was extremely powerful. That man was this country Kraazke's king, King Rieze Rion. While scanning King Rion, their eyes met. Dean quickly looked down.
When Rion saw Dean looked down, he slightly smiled. He looked at Yuri and saw Yuri's red face. Dean wanted to introduce himself but he did not get Rion's permission to talk so he kept silent.
Rion stood from his seat and went towards Dean and Yuri. He grabbed Dean's hand that was stuck on Yuri's bum and that startled Dean and Yuri a lot. Rion checked Dean's hand and he frowned
Yuri with her red face looked at Rion and started talking, "Dad, can you remove this?"
"Hmm~ The skill put in this is not something normal. The level of complexity of the skill activate here is at the level of someone at phase 5," said Rion. Rion had a deep voice.
When Hu, Yuri and Dean heard that, they were shocked. "Someone that strong played this prank?" was what played in their mind.
"Does that mean this was done by someone as strong as you dad?" asked Yuri. Yuri's was the same age as Dean, so she just entered the first dimension. She was a grade stronger than Dean. Yuri had started hunting for legend grade monster.
"No, this guy is much stronger than me. Someone at phase 6 minimum," said Rion. When they heard that, they got more shocked. "Someone at phase 5 won't be able to masterfully use something this complex. Even I myself won't be able to do something like this."
Yuri's face turned gloomier. When she heard Rion said that, it confirmed that even her father can't do anything about it.
"That old man must be bored to his life that he played this kind of prank," said Yuri. Someone at phase 6 usually were old man in their age. They might look young but their age will usually around more than a hundred.
Dean just looked at the situation. The king will never let his hand stuck to Yuri until the skill energy subsided. The king might sever his arm and burned it to ashes to remove his hand from Yuri's bum. Dean was imagining many things in his mind and all of them was bad news for him.
"Then dad, what should we do?" asked Yuri and she suddenly remembered something. "That's right, great grandpa will be able to remove this. He is at phase 7 and this will be easy to him," said Yuri excitedly.
When Yuri mentioned that, Hu's face brightened and Dean can see light at the end of the dark tunnel. However, Rion's face showed a complicated emotion. When Yuri saw Rion's face she felt something was not right.
"Wait a second, Dad?" asked Yuri. "No way, right?"
"Unfortunately, I think this is the work of your great grandpa. I can trace a bit of his energy," said Rion while closing his eyes.
Dean was shocked to hear that. The previous king was the one who played this prank? Why?
"There is no way great grandpa is the one responsible for this. He was not even there." Said Yuri.
"Someone of your great grandpa caliber does not need to be there to do something like this, sigh. He pushes this too far," said King Rion. King Rion suddenly held Dean's shoulder and Dean was scared shitless.
Dean looked at King Rion and King Rion smiled back at him. Dean was shocked. King Rion suddenly said something to Dean.
"He must have felt impatient with everything that happen to you, Dean," said King Rion. Dean was blinking his eyes not knowing what King Rion meant with his words. Suddenly, Sys told Dean something.
'Dean, the great grandpa that Yuri meant is Cloud Luke. I check and it is him' said Sys.
"But their family name is different" said Dean.
'How stupid can you be? For someone as old as Cloud Luke, he will have lots of connection with everyone thanks to his descendant marrying all these aristocrats and royals' said Sys.
"Why is he doing this? First the enlistment to the military, then the house and now this. What happen now is the most absurd things he had done," said Dean. He got frustrated with the situation he currently went through.
Rion stood straight and went in front of Dean and Yuri. He seemed like he got a headache and he held his forehead. He went silent for few minutes thinking of something and then he sighed.
"Dad, I will ask great grandpa to remove this," said Yuri. Yuri was the one who felt uncomfortable the most. She looked like she was about to cry because all this was done by her own family. She also deduced that what happened in the subway for the past few weeks must be done by Luke. He must have been practicing this skill at all those people.
"I already ask him and he said…" King Rion paused his words.
"What did great grandpa said?" asked Yuri.
"Since Dean has cause his most favorite great granddaughter a lot of shame, he needs to take responsibility by marrying her," said King Rion. Dean and Yuri was shocked by that.
Yuri quickly raised her voice and said, "That does not make any sense. If he really considers me as his favorite, he would not let me marry someone who put me to shame. And he was the one who did this" Yuri was really angry with this absurd situation. After she said that, suddenly a huge energy befell towards them.
The energy was so strong. Dean and Yuri fell on their knees instantly. Even Hu who was a phase 3 human also fell on the floor. Only Rion stood still.
"Is this Cloud Luke power?" Dean asked Sys.
'A small part of it. If he uses his full power, Rion won't stood still like that and you will instantly die' said Sys.
"Yuri, he said that if you are unwilling of marrying Dean, you can just die," said Rion with his eyes close. He did not agree with what Luke was doing but someone like him cannot fight someone as powerful as Luke.
When Yuri heard that, her heart sank. She did not know why her great grandpa doing this. Why is he forcing her to marry Dean? Could this be what he was aiming all this time? Why? What is so special about Dean that he did something like this to his 'favorite granddaughter'? Since when did she became his favorite?
Under the pressure, Yuri said, "Fine! I will marry him!!!" Yuri tears fell down. After Yuri said that, the pressure disappeared. Dean looked at Yuri and he felt pain in his heart looking at Yuri's condition. Dean never met Cloud Luke in all his life. Why was he doing this?
Rion helplessly looking at his daughter crying like that. He wanted to hate Dean, but he can't because he knew from Dean's expression, Dean was dragged into this scheme made by Cloud Luke. He wanted to hate Cloud Luke but he was powerless against him. Rion married a lot of women and had many children but that did not mean that he did not love and care about Yuri's wellbeing.
After Yuri calmed, Rion ordered Hu to brought both of Dean and Yuri to Yuri's room. Before they left, Rion told Dean and Yuri that even though Yuri agreed to marry Dean, their marriage won't happen in the near future. He also won't announced it to the public.
He also told them that he will try to persuade Luke to retract back about the marriage thing. Both Dean and Yuri needed to calmly wait. He will try his best to persuade Luke.
Hu led Dean and Yuri back to Yuri's room. The three of them was silent. Dean and Yuri did not look back at each other. A few minutes of walking, they arrived in front of Yuri's room. Yuri opened the door and with his hand still stuck, Dean helplessly followed Yuri inside her room. Hu excused himself and left them alone.
Dean thought Yuri's room will be extravagant but it was just a normal girl room. He used to enter his sister room a lot before his awakening, so he knew how girl's room looked like. He looked at Yuri and knew she was uncomfortable with a boy present in her room but they cannot do anything about it.
Dean was supposed to buy some grocery and went back home to relax. Out of nowhere, he was 'match make' with a princess and was forcefully asked to marry her in the future and he never even once said yes. He never thought this kind of things will happen.
"Urm… your highness, I know you are uncomfortable right now. This will only last for few days. After I get my hands off you, I will disappear from this city," said Dean.
"No need to be formal. You can just call me Yuri. If you want to disappear, that will never happen. You should know how strong my great grandpa is. It is common knowledge that he is the strongest human on Earth. If he can stick your hand at me from far away, that mean he can easily find you wherever you go," said Yuri.
Both of them fell silent for a moment. They both still standing because it was uncomfortable to sit. Suddenly, someone knocked on the room's door. Yuri gave permission to enter and it was Hu. Hu pushed a trolley with food on it.
"Your Highness Yuri and Master Dean," said Hu while he slightly bowed. "His Majesty, King Rion already order no one to come here and only I am allowing to serve both of you. If you need anything, you can contact me," said Hu and he continued, "I bring your dinner here." Hu put the dinner on the small table inside the room.
Yuri and Dean looked at each other and Yuri's stomach suddenly growled. She blushed and said to Dean, "Let's eat first" and she dragged Dean to the small table. Hu dragged one the chair for Dean.
Yuri sat on the chair with Dean's stuck hand sandwich between Yuri's soft bum and the chair. There was nothing she can do. Dean sat closely beside her and they started eating. Yuri did not have any problem eating the food because both of her hand was free. Dean was a having quite a hard time eating with his left hand because he was right-handed.
Yuri saw that Dean was struggling with his left hand but she ignored him. Yuri was not a heartless person at all. She was well known to be a nice and sweet girl. However, the situation she got in made her dislike Dean a bit. Even when she knew about the 'Green Light' incident, she did not hate Dean like most of people did. She felt that they blamed the wrong person.
After they finished eating. Both Yuri and Dean realized the real biggest problem about their current situation.
