Chapter 42 - Political Marriage

True Nature

Novar has never been in a political marriage before. even in the life of the kingdom of Mataram he also married for love. unlike the kings who do political marriages.

"Tch… It seems I can't refuse all of your generosity... but... just so you know... I can't guarantee the happiness of your child if one of them become my wife…"

"Hohoho… it's not a problem... all my children are educated hard... they are not spoiled children who just wait for happiness from their husband... so you don't have to worry about their feelings."

"it's ok if you don't have a problem with my bad character… show all your children who are still single…"

'Damn… I'm really stuck... but this is better... because indirectly I'm only doing marriage for business without having to take full responsibility for taking care of my wife... if possible I want to have a daughter who has talent in martial arts.'

That day Novar was taken to meet the 12 princesses of the beast kingdom. All the princesses of the beast kingdom gathered in one room and saw the handsome figure of Novar. Almost all the eyes of the princesses from the beast kingdom stared intently at Novar's handsome face. But there were also 3 people who didn't seem very interested in him and chose to remain silent.

"They are all princesses of the Beast kingdom…! although not all of them are my biological children... as there are some born from concubines… but they are still the remains of the previous king…"

'The previous beast king huh... I remember his death 4 years ago... he died along with his eldest son for trying to counterattack the Revilion Kingdom… That of course wasn't approved by the demon king... so they didn't get any support... the main reason they attacked didn't really make sense either... '

Four years ago, the Beast Kingdom sent its 2 daughters to the border. The two princesses who were sent were figures who were considered worthy and had strong magical powers. The two of them were often referred to as a born blessing to the Beast Kingdom. The reason was simple, they were both rare bloodlines, and they possessed extremely strong magic power and physical strength within their bodies.

Unlike the beast race in general who only leaned to one side. Whereas if a beast race has great physical strength it means they will be weak in magic, and vice versa. But that princess can have both sides, physical strength and magic power which is equally great.

'Unfortunately, they are too spoiled and have a pretty arrogant attitude... in fact, I often hear the two of them demeaning the vampire race... my nickname as blood king is also often made fun of by them… Their arrogant nature made the two of them want to move the border area of ​​the Beast Kingdom... they arrogantly attacked the Revilion Kingdom's border fortress… then the result... one of them ends up as a corpse... while the other one gets caught and becomes a slave... '

The beast king who heard the unpleasant news immediately made a decision. He intended to deploy half of the Beast Kingdom's main army to ravage the Revilion Kingdom. His decision was of course immediately opposed by the Demon Lord and the internals of the Beast Kingdom. So he could only bring 20 thousand troops out of a total of 80 thousand troops owned by the Beast Kingdom.

Plus, the Demon Lord wouldn't be held responsible for what would happen later. The Demon Lord also wouldn't assist the Beast Kingdom in such an invasion. not only suffered a heavy defeat, the entire army that the Beast King brought with him also vanished. The Beast King and his eldest son died when faced with the Revilion Kingdom's strongest magic knight. The reason they were so badly beaten was the human race's living weapon, the Homunculus.

'They only use the homunculus for defense... that's why for hundreds of years the beast race and vampire race couldn't attack… In the end, they fell into a slump in the past 4 years… the Queen had to bear the burden of the King… the crown prince was incompetent… Their strongest foundation now was only the Queen... The Beast Kingdom would be utterly destroyed if they lost the Queen... how heartbreaking... the beast race that was famous for its military might suddenly be weakened drastically…'

"I have thought about it well... but let me ask one thing…"

"Just ask... I will answer it to the best of my ability as Queen…"

"I'm not a gentleman... I'm also notorious and the one who built a brothel inside the Vampire Capital… I'm sure bad rumors about me have been spreading for the last 4 years... so the question is... will the princesses in front of me right now be able to accept my character...? because I am a man who prioritizes gender equality... so I will respond to harsh treatment with harsh treatment… it doesn't matter if it's a woman or a man…"

Very strong pressure was felt by Fosaina when she heard Novar's question. Previously the Ghoul Kingdom had also tried to match their daughter with Novar. But one ended very badly because the princess slapped Novar's face.

All of that happened because Novar thought the princess was already his. According to rumors, Novar got slapped for trying to squeeze the princess's breasts at night. But the one who experienced the pain was the princess, even her hand was crushed.

'Their relationship with the Ghouls has been strained since then... but... from the news I heard... the Ghoul King is still trying to build a relationship with Novar... he also blames his own daughter… all of that happened because the economic power and magic technology of the vampire race developed very rapidly in the past 14 years… as Queen, I have to choose the best decision... and right now our people are not well...'

"I as a mother... of course want the best for them... but as a queen... I also want to establish good relations with the vampire race... so... I will leave this decision up to them... whoever dares to accept this responsibility please take one step forward…"

Fosaina prefers to hand over responsibility to her daughters so there will be no regrets in the future. Unfortunately, Novar was not very happy with Fosaina's decision.

"So that's all... that's all this Beast Kingdom is worth...?"

"What do you mean Vampire King...?"

"I question your decision… You think I'm a fool who doesn't understand the conditions of the Beast Kingdom...? I'm a person who likes to show off... I'm also a person who likes physical training... but... it doesn't mean I can't use my head properly... if you leave the decision to them... it means I can't choose to my heart's content…"

Novar is very outspoken when it comes to all his opinions. Because he came all the way to the beast race's territory because of Fosaina's invitation. he was also involved in political marriage conditions based on Fosaina's suggestion.

"You're the one who told me to hold this political marriage... but you're leaving the decision to someone else...? I can't accept that... if you want the political marriage to take place as a condition of our original agreement... I will make additional conditions…"

"Additional conditions...?"

"Whoever I choose, she has no right to annul the marriage and her husband's orders are absolute... plus... if I'm not satisfied with the choice... our agreement will be canceled immediately... and I will ban the beast race enter the territory of the vampire race… how about it... Queen Fosaina Fen Riantas..."

Fosaina was struck by lightning when she heard the additional conditions put forward by Novar. Even the princesses standing in front of Novar were shocked. All choices fall on Fosaina, if she can't satisfy Novar by reducing the number of choices. Then the beast race's life would be even more difficult.

"Alright… as your queen and mother... I beg you... help our people... only one of you will be chosen... so... I beg you to understand the situation of the beast race…"

All of Fosaina daughters took one step forward to make Novar smile with satisfaction. Novar stood up and started assessing the abilities of the princesses from the Beast Kingdom.

"The choice is quite difficult... you apparently have many talented daughters... but I've decided the best option for now…"

"Who do you choose...?"

"I choose this girl...she is very suitable to be my partner not only has ideal body...she also has good talent…"

Everyone was surprised when Novar pointed at one of the princesses who had short hair. Fosaina herself did not expect that Novar would choose the 10th daughter who is known to be a tomboy. But the one who was most surprised at the election was the tomboyish princess herself.

"You chose Ishia as a bride...? but she's an unruly girl who loves swordsmanship… I-I can't guarantee her obedience when she becomes your fiancé…"

"No problem... as long as you fulfill the conditions I mentioned earlier... I'll take care of the rest myself…"

Novar smiled because he could get one more rough gem to grind. But everything that happened that day was only the beginning of Novar's visit to beast territory.
