Eh. Did you ever have that moment, when a brilliant novel suddenly turned to utter crap in one horrible reveal? I had one of those just now, and I’m not sure I can carry on. I don’t even have the spirit to figure out a puzzle for this week. Now I understand why Enori took until Friday to translate this particular chapter. Just look at this… atrocity:
The moment Lambert resolved himself to speak his mind, the door to the room slammed open with a loud bang.
And when everyone turned to see what is this ruckus all about, they saw Charlotte on the threshold with even more determination in her eyes than Lambert was showing.
“Your Highness! Prince Arnold, I have a request!” she nearly shouted as she walked to where the Crown Prince was sitting.
“…Y-Yes, my lady?”
Arnold was completely overwhelmed by Charlotte’s aura.
“Please marry me!”
“Pardon?”
“Make me your wife, Highness!”
“Whaaa!?”
This stunned everyone in the room. A marriage proposal coming from a lady, furthermore one addressed to a Crown Prince of the realm, was simply without precedent.
“I can think of no other way to protect her! Please, Highness! Grant me strength to do so!”
“…What is this about?”
Well, he had an idea. She wanted the official position of his wife to protect Ariel. The big question was, what on earth would warrant such a step?
“Ariel is—”
“Lady Charlotte!” “Wait!”
“Ariel is a follower of Eris!!!”
Nothing good comes from the Internet on 1st of April. I need to rethink my life. Stay strong friends!
