'So that is what is happening here? He came here to see how I feel on the case'.
It sounds ridiculous and funny at the same time for Mikeal to realize.
"I am well aware of what asking you to accept your father's offer means Your Highness. Yes, I want you to become our king, the one to rule over the court of Emedia royal officials. Become the next father of the kingdom".
He says it with so much sincerity that Mikeal almost bought into the ruse.
Now, it depends on how he is to respond to this situation?...
"I decline".
He sees no reason to keep the ruse for long. There is no cause to entertain his charlatan.
"Can I ask your Highness, why?".
"Why? Is there a need for that question? Your court is the one that vehemently opposed the idea so wouldn't you all know best what the reason is".
How ridiculous that he expects an education from him in that aspect.
