Back in the throne room in the human kingdom, the king sat with his head firmly planted on his open palm, peering down at Renny who knelt below him. The king opened his mouth to speak, but held his tongue as Pavlor, Melissa and Rebecca all poured into the room.
The king lifted his head, his gaze settling on Renny, "How are you holding up?", he asked.
Renny looked up. It had been a few weeks now since Milo and Marcos had departed. They hadn't anticipated any trouble, however losing their two strongest fighters for such a prolonged period of time was bound to unearth some unwanted problems in the near future.
"Well", he began, "We have received quite a few marriage proposals for both Renny and Pavlor. Word of Melissa and Rebecca's celibacy became public so any approach towards them has halted, significantly halted thankfully. However, some noblemen from higher ranked families have reached the point of essentially trying to push their daughters on our family".
