Melissa POV.
After the confusion made by the arrival of the creature, we decided to gather in the throne room to discuss what to do.
I stood next to my father and my stepmother Amatarasu for the trial, my stepmother Amelia was on the opposite side.
"*blush* My lord, I swear by my I had no intention of murdering you"
Lunda said.
This imbecile girl blushes every time she looks at my father, I don't like the way things are going, if it continues like this, soon, soon she will be my stepmother, I can't allow it.
"Dear, this girl whose name is not worth mentioning, has borrowed the power of an angel, we know very well what they say about those who borrow power from a very strong being"
Said Amatarasu in a threatening tone.
"Objection"
"Always you Amelia, it's not enough that your mindless mentality, now you are wanting to oppose a more than deserved penalty under a murderer"
"Amatarasu, why are you always so hard-headed, can't you see that the girl has nothing to do with this, most likely she just inherited her family's power"
"Which says nothing, how many families have tried to kill our husband? No one in that kingdom is any good"
"You say that because of the anger you inherited from your father"
"And you for the foolishness you inherited from yours"
"Calm down"
My father said.
These two will never agree on anything anyway, as Amatarasu strenuously advocated for the immediate execution of all guests, while Amelia went on to the theory that Lunda was just a means used for the assassination attempt.
"I won't kill anyone, this girl was just used, in her battle against my daughter, when she used a lot of borrowed power, this probably created a link between this city and the children of you know who"
"But dear, that doesn't explain how she got that power, that could be another experiment by that bizarre family"
"Amatarasu, experiments using humans and gods were banned when we signed the non-interference treaty"
"I know that, and I also know that these people do not keep agreements, to this day they have not banned slavery"
"Amatarasu, you know very well that this takes time, the king cannot impose rules for all states in the kingdom"
A/N {think of it as the USA, each state has its own set of rules and the king cannot interfere in the course of them, unless, something serious involves the whole Country, and since the king has already signed a treaty to end slavery gradually, he cannot do anything, not that he wants to do anything either, which complicates it even more, we also have the fact that most state representatives hate beasts... }
"Tsk, if the king wasn't corrupt, who knows?"
"That's enough at two, I haven't finished my sentence yet"
"Sorry"
Said both as they made crying faces.
"Melissa, what do you think about this girl?"
A direct question, too bad I can't say everything that comes to my mind.
"I don't like her"
But that I can, I don't want him to get a good first impression of her, anything I can to get in her way I will do.
"And you Lunda, what do you think of my daughter?"
"With all due respect sir, I didn't like her either"
With each passing second, my hatred for this Lunda grows.
"I see, you hate Beastkins, right?"
"N... no, I... I don't hate them it's only... you know..."
"You were raised that way, just like my Melissa, she hates humans for not living with them"
"Dad, after what they did to my mother, it was obvious that I would hate them"
A/N {I created Melissa and Lunda to be similar in some ways and very different in others, as you can see Melissa and Lunda are passionate about the concept of strength and both are proud}
"I know that daughter, but you have to interact with them...you know what, I will give you my sentence, Lunda, you will be responsible for my daughter while she is in school, and Melissa, you will attend the same school as the hero"
"But Father, I have already graduated"
"In the customs of your mother, now you will go to the kingdom, good luck my daughter"
I can't believe this is happening, damn it.
"Now about the broken weapon, Lunda I will lend you my strength while I am with my daughter, that is the only clause I put in the contract do you accept?"
"*Blush* Yes"
This girl blushed as if it was a marriage proposal, dammit.
"Now, under the other terms"
As soon as my father said, the air that emanated a warm aura turned into an extremely icy air, both my stepmothers assumed battle stance, the sky darkened, and then a colossal figure could be observed on the horizon, his honey-colored hair and armor oozed imposingness, less than my Father, but still remarkable.
"Brace yourselves, this time we will not fail."
The creature approached quickly, and when it spotted my Father, it let out a breath of relief and said.
"How are you doing partner, glad that crazy angel didn't kill you, not that it was possible, but it's always good to check"
"Seriously, you always cause such a fuss, this way I might mistake you for Loki"
My father said jokingly.
"No kidding, I hate that dirty God.
"And I hate both of you.
Said Amelia and Amatarasu.
It was the first time I saw both of them agree on something.
"W... Who are you?"
Lunda asked.
"That's the God of War"
