Chapter 4: Audience

Three days after we left the border, we arrived at the royal palace of the Tenar Kingdom when it was already getting dark.

The door of the carriage is opened from the outside, and I get off the carriage with the help of His Highness Gresis.
A large stone palace towered in front of me.

“First of all, we will greet the king and my family in the audience room. After that, we will have dinner at the villa.”
“Yes.”

Even though I pretended to be a lady, my heart was very urgent.

I have to give a good greeting to His Majesty the King, who chose me, who has a bad reputation, as Prince Gresis’s marriage partner.

I was escorted by His Highness Gresis and headed to the audience room.
The royal palace has a higher ceiling that in the Seiran Kingdom, and the corridors are wider. The size of each window and the fittings is also large.

When I arrived at the audience room, the knight standing in front of the door opened it.
A long, vermilion carpet stretches from the entrance toward the back, and continues to the throne several steps ahead.

On the throne sat His Majesty the King and Her Majesty the Queen.
The man in his forties standing diagonally behind His Majesty the King must be the prime minister.

Next to Her Majesty the Queen, two men of the same age as His Highness Gresis stood side by side.

With animal ears and a tail, for some reason anyone can look adorable, but it’s a problem because it makes my cheeks loose.

I head to the throne, bow my head with His Highness Gresis, and wait for His Majesty’s words.

“Be at ease, both of you. Gresis, I’m glad you’re back safely.”

“Yes.”
His Majesty the King nodded at His Highness Gresis and turned his gaze to me.

“Thank you for your long journey. I am Gresis’s father, Leroy, a leopard beastman. She is my wife Denise, a leopard beastman like myself. Next to me is also a leopard beastman and the prime minister Ethan, and these two are the brothers of Gresis, the crown prince Timir and the next prime minister Frair.”

His Majesty King Leroy, Her Majesty Queen Denise, and the two brothers of Gresis had dark brown ears, leopard-print tails, blond hair, and fair skin.

It was strange that only Prince Gresis had black pigment in his ears, tail, and hair, but Prince Gresis’s eyes and nose resembled King Leroy, and his champagne-yellow eyes and his lips resembled Queen Denise.

Besides, he looked somewhat similar to both Prince Timir and Prince Frair, and there was no doubt that they were a family.
And they are all beautiful.

“I am happy to meet you for the first time. I am Lilith, Princess of the Seiran Kingdom. I am very happy to meet you all. I look forward to working with you for a long time.”

I keep smiling like royalty and politely bow as a lady.

“We will become a family. I want you to think of me as a father, my wife as a mother, and my sons as brothers. Of course, please support Gresis as your husband.”

“Yes, as His Highness Gresis’s wife, I will do my best to become a bridge between the two countries.”

His Majesty King Leroy nodded with a king look and said,
“By the way, Lilith, I heard that you sent embroidered handkerchiefs to the couples at the mansions where you stayed.”
“. . . Yes.”

I was startled.
His Majesty King Leroy heard about my blunder of falling asleep and not greeting the owners of the mansions.

“Wedding gifts have arrived from each territory by fast horse as a thank you for the handkerchiefs.”

Hmm? I’ve never heard of thanking someone for an item they gave as an apology. I wonder if it’s a cultural difference. But if they are congratulating me on my marriage, it’s polite to accept it.

“I am very honored.”
It would be nice if it didn’t leave a bad impression.

In my heart, I stroked my chest with relief, and the audience ended safely.

 

I feel like the Tenar Kingdom isn’t as politically charged as the Seiran Kingdom and Lilith is just misunderstanding. I hope that’s the case anyway.

I hope you enjoyed this chapter and thank you for reading!
