Chapter 893: Feel sorry for them
Chapter 893: Feel sorry for them
Everyone looked at me with bated breath when they heard this.
There was even a bit of aggrievement in their eyes at the fact that I was keeping them waiting like this, but it couldn’t be helped since I was still figuring out my thoughts.
There were things that I didn’t know since they were not in the game, so I had to think them through before saying them out loud.
Finally, Ariel couldn’t take it anymore and said, “What is it? What is your plan?”
I was pulled out of my thoughts, but I didn’t tell her anything about a plan. Instead, I said, “Well, you see, the problem that our kingdom is facing right now is that we might have gotten involved with someone related to the royal family of the Tide Empire.”
I went on to explain the situation with Viper and what he had claimed about the Tide Empire. But while I was still explaining this, Ariel suddenly said, “What does that have to do with my situation?”
I looked at her with a faint smile before saying, “Of course it’s all related.”
Ariel had a very confused look when she heard this, but she wasn’t the only one that looked this way. The others that were at the table all seemed to have some degree of confusion on their faces, that was except for two people.
They were Rose and Noah.
The two of them had their brows knitted as if they were lost in deep thought while listening to what I had to say.
In the end, it was Noah who spoke first as he said in a hesitant voice, “You want to get Princess Ariel involved in this matter?”
I revealed another faint smile when I heard him say this before turning to give him a nod. Noah and Rose deeply knitted their brows when they heard this, but they didn’t say anything in response.
Everyone looked even more confused when they heard this, but Angela didn’t just sit still this time.
After all, the person who was speaking had changed, so there was no need for her to hold back. Pushing her chair back and standing up, she walked over to Noah and raised her fist. Noah didn’t seem to notice this at first, but it was hard to miss when she brought that fist right up in front of his face.
There was a bitter look on Noah’s face when he saw this as he said, “Big sister, what are you doing?”
Angela just said with a sweet smile, “Tell me what’s going on, or you’re going to get it.” The bitterness grew on Noah’s face and he looked over at me as if he was looking for help, but I just tactfully chose to turn away and pretend I didn’t see a thing.
There was a look that seemed like he felt betrayed by this, but once again I pretended like I didn’t see a thing.
With a sigh, Noah said, “It’s not a concrete plan, but if there was something that happened between Viper and Princess Ariel, what do you think would happen?”
Angela raised a brow like she was confused by this before bringing his fist forward like she was threatening him to say, “Make it more clear.”
Noah shook his head with a bitter smile before continuing with a sigh, “If Viper is related to the Tide Empire’s royal family and he were to offend Princess Ariel who is the princess of the Merman Empire, do you think that there would still be any further talks of engagement?”
Slow looks of realization appeared on their faces when they heard this.
But at the same time, the others turned to look at Ariel with looks of worry.
After all, this was no doubt a plan that would cause damage to the Merman Empire.
First, the relationship between the Tide Empire and the Merman Empire would be destroyed because of this incident.
With such a large incident involving the royal families of both empires, there was no doubt that there would be a large tension formed between them.
Second, this would surely hurt the relationship between Ariel and her parents since she would be going against her parents like this.
And finally…there might be damage between relations between humans and mermaids because of this.
Since this was an incident between Ariel, the mermaid princess and the Tide Empire, which was now a human empire, there was no doubt that human and mermaid relationship would degrade because of this.
In the future, it would be harder for mermaids to have any relations with the humans on land because of this matter.
So everyone was worried that Ariel would reject this.
Though there wouldn’t be a single person that would blame her if she did reject this plan.
But to everyone’s surprise…
“This is a great plan!”
No one expected this to come from Ariel’s mouth.
She could see everyone looking at her, so she said with a wide smile on her face, “It isn’t as if
this will harm the Merman Empire that much, you’re looking down on the Merman Empire a bit too much if you think that this will be enough to hurt us.”
The way that she said this was as if she was fully confident in the power of the Merman
Empire, but…
“This will teach my mom and dad to go behind my back like this.”
It seemed that there was a vengeful side to Ariel as well.
It seemed that she was holding a grudge against her parents, which was why she was in favour
of this plan.
In the end, we still decided to go with this plan for now.
It seemed like the easiest way to handle the Tide Empire, so it was best to just go with this
plan.
The only thing that I could say as I listened to Noah and Rose cementing the plan was…
“I really can’t help feeling sorry for them.”
