Veronica was worried that the Elven King and Arthur would start fighting. If that happened, she had no idea how to deal with it.
As she braced herself, King Erestor Culnámo said, "A place has been prepared for you and your people to stay. Please stay here as long as you wish. I'd like to know if our savior is in good hands."
"Only my wife's family has the right. Other people are irrelevant," Arthur coldly replied. "We will take your offer and stay here for a few days but that's all."
The beady eyes of King Erestor Culnámo gazed at him.
"Make yourself at home," he said.
That was the end of their conversation.
When Veronica and the rest came out of the Royal Tree, Veronica let out a deep breath. She didn't realize when she held her breath.
"Phew! That was stressful!"
Merlin wiped the traces of sweat away from his forehead.
"I don't know why but King Erestor Culnámo hates us, especially Arthur," he added.
