Chapter 18 - Embarrassed

Rion looked at his grandfather and although he was initially angry that his grandfather had broken his promise to not reveal thier relation to one another but from how Calanire had reacted before his grandfather had revealed who he was he knew that it was the best chance to get him to agree.

As Rion was looking at his grandfather Calanire was looking between him and the King "You're not making this up just to get me to let the boy stay with me are you?" Calanire asked skeptical of whether what the King said to be true.

When he heard what Calanire said it only confirmed what Rion was thinking seeing how suspicious Calanire was even though his grandfather was telling the truth.

The King's eye's narrowed when he heard Calanire's response "Now I know you didn't mean any disrespect so I'm going to give you a few minute's to think of what you'd just said and whether or not you think I'm telling the truth" the King said as he looked at Calanire.

Rion looked between his grandfather and Calanire wondering just what kind of relationship the two had and why his grandfather was so adamant about him staying with Calanire.

In the very next second Calanire spoke "Yes this is something you'd do" Calanire said pointedly.

The King's brow furrowed when he heard what Calanire said "That was decades ago and you still won't let it go" the King said with an annoyed tone.

Calanire's face now matched that of the King showing that he was getting more annoyed with each passing second "It doesn't matter if what you said is true because I won't do as you ask" Calanire said stating his descision on the matter.

Rion noticed that the King's right eye twitched when he heard Calanire's response and the imposing King that he been seeing changed "I could just order you to take him in and there's nothing you could do" the King said in a childish manner causing the Queen to hold her head in her hand's.

After a brief moment of silence the two then began to spout childish comments at one another.

"Your always like this when you don't get your way you pompous old asshole" Calanire shouted at the King.

"Old we're the same age you God damn giant moron now could you just do as I ask for once" the King shouted back at Calanire.

The two men looked like a pair of children that were arguing over something that they both want 'What the hell is happening?!' Rion thought to himself not believing what he was seeing with his own eye's.

While the two were arguing with each other the Queen got up from her throne and started to head in Rion's direction "Rion follow me these two are going to be at this for a while so let's get you something to eat while they figure this out" the Queen who had been silent said to Rion as she made her out of the throne room.

Rion gave one last glance back towards his grandfather and Calanire who were still arguing which caused him to shake his head realising that his grandmother was right and followed after her.

After leaving the throne room Rion and his grandmother made their way through the halls of the castle until they came to a large room that his grandmother said was the room in which they dined.

Around the edges of the large room stood numerous people who were the maids and butler's that were responsible for serving their food, if Rion wasn't already impressed in the centre of the room was a long table with many different types of delicious looking food decorating it and from the looks of it the table that only took up the centre of the room could easily seat around 40-50 people.

The smell of the food ended up causing Rion's mouth to salivate which caused him to swallow 'It smells so good' Rion thought to himself getting momentarily lost in his thought's.

Rion was only I this daze like state for a few seconds before he snapped out of it as he remembered just where he was and glanced at his grandmother hoping she hadn't seen him only to see that she was looking at him with a smile on her face.

When he realised that he had been caught his face flushed red from embarrassment 'Oh god kill me now' Rion thought not daring to look at his grandmother and just when he thought that he couldn't get anymore embarrassed than he already was a loud rumble was heard throughput the room.

Rumble.

Everyone turned towards were the rumbling sound was coming from all of them stopping on a red faced Erarni.

The rumbling sound that resounded throughout the room turned out to be Rion's stomach and when he looked around the room he saw everyone had stopped what they were doing and was looking at him.

Upon recieving the attention of everyone in the room Rion's face became even redder than it already was.

Rion expected everyone standing around the room to laugh or stare at him with disdain but to his surprise none of that happened "Well I guess I don't have to ask you if you're hungry come on let's get you something to eat" the Queen said as she stroked Rion's hair in a way that reminded him of his mother.

Rion looked at the door that they had just come through before he looked back at his grandmother "What about grandfather and his friend shouldn't we go and get them?" Rion asked wondering if it was okay to just leave like they did.

The Queen's loving gaze changed to that of an annoyed one when she heard what Rion asked as she released a sigh "Haah~ You're too sweet my child those two idiot's will be arguing for hour's so it's better to just forget about them" The Queen said as she addressed Rion's question as she took her seat at the table.

Rion paused for a few seconds absorbing his grandmother's word's before he followed what she said as he too took his seat at the table and began to eat.
