"Master… Welcome back," Humility said and smiled at him sweetly.
"I'm here to either give you back the kingdom or have it integrate into my empire," Lawrend replied.
"What? No. You're the owner of the kingdom. Why should you give it back to me?" Humility shook her head immediately.
"The only reason they were able to accept it so easily was that you will be my wife. For the commoners and nobles, it was the same business. Their only worry was whether I would rule differently, but I didn't, so everything is peaceful," Lawrend explained to her and rubbed her head.
"Master… I will not accept it. You should integrate it with the empire, so everyone will be happy. They want you as a leader now. Don't you know you have a fan club already?"
"What? Really?"
"Yes. Many mages speak about your abilities almost every day. Everyone was sick of hearing them, but it always incites excitement within everybody," Humility explained.
