When Arc came outside, he saw everyone moving outside excitedly.
"Looks like regardless of the groom, they still enjoy the moments."
Arc told that to Ariana who came to look for him in the morning.
"Yea. After all, many people here have yet to witness the marriage of royalty. Especially, the marriage of a guy which is happening first time in 40 years."
Ariana told him.
"What about uncle Domingo?"
Arc asked her.
"There was a bloodbath, have you never heard? Because he was supposed to marry Ikra William. Yes, our paternal aunt. He gave up the throne for marrying Zenith White."
Ariana told him.
"I see. So, Zenith White will be my mother-in-law."
Arc muttered.
"Yeah, later when the last king verged Golden Bell war, he told Athena William and Father to marry and said that he forgave Domingo William."
Ariana explained. Lots of trouble and mystery circulate around Royalty. That's why Arc didn't like royalty that much in his previous life. The main problem is William's Royalty forces them to marry their cousin to keep their bloodline intact and if you don't, you are already out of the race.
"Did it ever happen that, a William married to outside, still inherit the throne?"
Arc asked.
"No. They were allowed to marry multiple brides, however, they need at least one William blood among them the child from those two inherit the throne never did. an exception happened, like our father, your mother is still a William, so it was fine to marry my mother as long as you become the King."
Ariana replied.
"That's absurd. Why they are so obsessed with that? What if William run out opposite gender William? What will they do then?"
Arc almost complained to her.
"Well, there was twice that happened."
Ariana told him.
"What happened then?"
"Those two times are regarded as the darkest era of Williams family history, which was still kept in the Foreign history book, however, Valhalla is ashamed to keep that in the textbook."
Ariana told him with a mysterious tone.
"What was that? Wait don't tell me..."
Arc stop at halfway.
"The first one was, King from a past era who married his younger sister, not a step or half-sister, they were blood from the same parents."
Ariana said.
"As I suspected. This is a bad example."
Arc told her.
"Then what about the second one."
Arc asked.
"The second one was when King Modred William married his own stepmother. At that time the biggest civil war happened between him and his half-brother who was the son of his stepmother of his. Later Modred was the one who said to his lineage to produce at least 10 children and spread them to not only in the nation but also in foreign countries. By the way, after that, it was the first time that half of William was okay to marry. However, direct bloodline was preferred most, and there must be one direct line William from the couple."
Ariana took a breath.
"And in this era, you are only pure blood from the previous King, though Zerin is considered as directline, she is still a half-blood, however, because she was still 3rd generation of the last King, people regarded as her in the radar of direct line, technically she shouldn't be one, however, her talent and considering Domingo, she was regarded as one."
Ariana ended there. If Arc didn't have IQ supporting him, his brain would have exploded by now.
"To think marrying your own stepmother. While your half-brother was still there, what kind of dirty era was that?"
Arc muttered.
"Oh, well, I will think about Pureblood, direct line, and half William later. Say, won't you get scolded if she saw you with me in this open place? After all, technically you support Adam's faction that's what everyone knows."
Arc asked her.
"I was kicked out."
She replied.
"Hmm?"
Arc made a questioning face.
"I was kicked from the brother faction. Mother doesn't talk to me anymore. She said not to go in front of her anymore."
Ariana replied. Then she grinned and said,
"Yesterday, when you saw I was in front of the gate, I got official notice from mother that, I am dismissed from Adam faction. That means, from now on, I can root you in publically. I will identify as Arc faction from now on."
Ariana told him.
"What? You even didn't get my permission to become an Arc-ian member but you already claiming that you are in my faction."
Arc said jokingly.
"Huh, I don't need any permission. I am an automatic choice. Be grateful to this me, Princess Ariana William on your faction."
She said with a prideful voice.
There was a pause for a few seconds, then both of them laughed together. Arc then told her,
"Welcome to my faction, dear Ariana."
