Chapter 91: Absurd Contract

"E-Eh… What did you say?" said Jayna

"Did you have a problem with the result?" asked Angus once again.

"Err.. No, I just don\'t have to bother you, right? Hmph.. Even without this bet, I will not bother you. I am royalty, why should I bother someone like you?" said Jayna while looking away.

"Then, If there is no anything else, I will excuse myself." said Angus.

"W-Wait a second, kid." said Ban.

\'Huft.. Just what the hell does this old man want?\' thought Angus.

"Yes, is there any problem, Master Ban?" asked Angus politely with a lazy expression.

"Err.. actually I want to apologize for my behavior before. Also, it seems you are already being a disciple of someone. So, I am sorry to put you into an uncomfortable situation before." explained Ban.

"Disciple?? What do you mean?" asked Angus.

"Didn\'t you already have a teacher? The way you use that strange footwork and skill to throw me off balance is incredible. Your teacher must be a great man to create such skill." said Ban.

\'Err… How come he concludes that. Well, since he thought that I was being taught by someone. Let them think like that for now.\' thought Angus.

"I see.. then, I shall go…" said Angus

Before he completed his sentence, "W-Wait.. Angus." said Jayna.

\'Damn… What\'s more?\' thought Angus.

"I-Is there a way I could see this master of yours?" asked Jayna.

"Err… why do you want to meet him?" asked Angus back.

"I-I just want to become stronger like you." said Jayna.

\'This is going to be a hassle. If I say no, it will only create trouble in the future. The son of the duke got a stronger teacher than the princess.\' thought Angus.

Looking at Angus silent for a moment, "I-I will pay any.." said Jayna.

"Haa… This is troublesome. Alright, you are all wrong." said Angus.

"Wrong??" asked Jayna back.

"Yes, you are misunderstanding something. I didn\'t have any hidden teacher or master." explained Angus.

"Impossible, then how could you use and acquire that kind of skill?" rebuked Ban.

"I created it." replied Angus slowly.

"That\'s impossible!! Through my eyes, your footwork is very complicated yet precise and your skill to throw off me is also very sophisticated." said Ban.

"Well, I just read some books and created the technique." replied Angus.

"W-What…" as Ban didn\'t know what to say anymore.

\'Technically, I created these techniques in my past life so I am not lying to them. But, they don\'t need to know this.\' thought Angus.

"Hohoho… It seems you are more genius than what I heard from your father." said the old butler Darius.

"Eh.. What do you mean by that,? uncle Darius?" asked Jayna.

"According to Duke Victory himself, Angus is quite a genius himself that could even find the way to medicate a Miasma-based wound. Though this is very confidential information that is still yet to be proven." explained Darius towards others.

"I-Is that true?" said Ban.

"*Sigh* Well, it\'s going to be announced later anyway. But, yes that\'s true. However, the medication technique is still not perfect and only could tend to the fresh injured wound." explain Angus further.

"T-That\'s still amazing. I bet you also do something to have that kind of body strength." said Ban.

Suddenly, Jayna bowed her head to Angus. Seeing this, the others immediately become confused except Darius.

"Angus, p-please teach me!!" said Jayna.

"Haa… W-Wait… Please raise your head Jayna before others see you bowing towards me." said Angus.

"No, I will keep bowing until you decide to teach me." replied Jayna resolutely.

"*Sigh* this is troublesome. Besides, why should I teach you? You may not know this but I am quite a busy person. I also still need to learn a lot of stuff like you." replied Angus lazily.

"B-But, you are strong. You even create a sophisticated skill by yourself." said Jayna.

"Haa.. listen here, I may have created the skill but that didn\'t mean I could become your teacher. Besides you already grade one combatant while I still haven\'t formed my core." explained Angus

"T-Then, teach me your skill." said Jayna adamantly.

Hearing this, Darius begins to step in. "Fourth Princess, that\'s an inappropriate question." rebuked Darius seriously.

In Firuman, demanding someone to spell or skill is kind of unethical. Especially unique skills that Angus uses. It\'s like asking someone about someone\'s family heirloom.

After being rebuked by Darius, Jayna flinched a little bit but she is back to lower her head towards Angus.

"Please… " said Jayna.

Looking at this, Angus looks at the other two men. "Jayna, Can I ask you one thing? Why is a princess like you so desperate to have power?"

"I-It\'s…" as Jayna raises her head and looks at Angus\'s serious expression.

"*Sigh* Let me guess, it has a connection about your possession state." said Angus.

"Yes.. But, I-It\'s kind of complicated." said Jayna.

"Then, tell me. Since you want something from me. At least give me a good reason why I should help you." said Angus.

"Young master, Victory…" said Darius.

"Uncle Darius, it\'s okay. I trust Angus. Master Ban, I am sorry, But, could you let us be alone." said Jayna.

"Alright, take all your time." said Ban as he walked away.

Soon, Darius also moves farther to give some privacy to Angus and Jayna. Then, Jayna begins to tell her problem to Angus.

Hearing the explanation from her, Angus gets a little bit of a headache. The problem is more complicated than Angus thought.

Since her birth, she is destined to have a political marriage to bind with another powerful nation. However, the King didn\'t specify which nation. At first, there are only several nations that want her

After she awakens her possession, more countries want her. But not being kept as political marriage but as a hidden weapon. Of course, the king also didn\'t want to let Jayna go as she awakened possession.

However, the king is bound by a contract with those nations. So, the king himself couldn\'t do anything. The only safe way to break this engagement is by Jayna defeating her political marriage partner to show they are not worthy of her.

But, some of her political marriage partners are from different races that are stronger than humans that could easily reach the high-grade rank.

As for why the King agreed about this stupid contract is because of the one that sign it is not him but his predecessor. The Heart Kingdom in the past was a normal human kingdom without any seven-grade leader.

To protect themself, King Leon\'s predecessor signed this absurd heritage contract. Because of this, King Leon is quite resentful towards the religious group that created this contract.

However, even with his almighty strength, he still couldn\'t break the contract and has a high possibility of getting a huge backlash from breaking the contract.

The one that could only take Jayna\'s hand is only decided by King Leon or by someone that helps the Heart Kingdom to prosper.

Heart Kingdom is a self-sufficient kingdom, so the second choice is very hard. However, the first choice must be fulfilled when Jayna reaches the age of twenty-one.

In summary, Jayna needs to be as strong as possible when she reaches twenty-one years old or her life will be turned into brainwashed weapons.

As a noble, Angus also realizes a few dark parts about this world. One of them is brainwashing people to mold them into loyal soldiers through various means such as torture.

Moreover, one of the clauses in the contract also prevents the Heart Kingdom from taking back Jayna after she gets married to the allied nation. She could also not run away or her father will receive the backlash.

Knowing this and looking at Jayna\'s face who is resolute to break her fate, Angus could only stay silent and think for a while.

At this moment, there is a commotion outside the training area. Then, Darius is back towards them.

"Uncle Darius, is something wrong?" asked Jayna.

"There is an emergency signal coming from the Black Fortress. It seems the monster horde is coming." explained Darius.

\'Monster Horde!! I hope father is fine.\' thought Angus.

Looking at Angus\'s worried expression, "Don\'t worry, young master Victory. The King will step in himself to prevent heavy casualty."

"Yeah.. I hope nothing is going wrong." said Angus

However, his instinct keeps alarming him that something is not right. After hearing that the king himself will go, he is certain that something is going to happen soon.

"It seems that the Fourth Princess already explanate everything to you. Why don\'t we have a small tea break while you ponder about your choice." said Darius.

"Alright, lead the way." said Darius.

"Then, I will change first before joining you." said Jayna shortly before walking away.

After Jayna walks away, "Uncle Darius, did you know which one nation that Jayna should watch for?"

"Hoo.. It seems young master Victory is interested in the Fourth Princess\'s problem. Well, these are all the lists about the kingdom that wants the Fourth Princess." said the old butler while taking out a document from his storage device.

Looking at this, \'He is already preparing this beforehand. Damn.. old fox.\' thought Angus.
