Feeling rushed, I abruptly said no. Thank goodness Edwin wasn't here. If the two of them started causing a commotion again, this time threatening to go after the Emperor of Riverdun's head, it would be really troublesome.
That was why I said no as I remembered Haven’s reaction when I received a marriage proposal from the Emperor of Gripton.
Haven quietly asked, his eyes driven to insanity, "What are you referring to, Your Majesty?"
"Whatever you're thinking right now, no, it's not happening."
"... I won't kill."
'See?'
Whether it was Riverdun's prince or emperor Haven intended to kill, it seemed my foresight had averted a national crisis.
I praised myself and turned to look at Genise.
"You can't either."
Genise, sitting on the new plush sofa I bought for her, just turned to look at me and responded, "I had no intention of killing anyone, though?"
"Really?"
Probably without the little rascal by her side, Genise seemed to have come to her senses.
