My Fiancée Hates Me

Chapter 34: Scavenger Hunt

"The scavenger hunt was created by me after all," His Majesty said. Is he really going to reveal his identity to a stranger he just met? I remained quiet as I let him continue speaking. "The scavenger hunt for the Blue Tear Jewel was my idea."

How do I respond to this?

"...I see."

"You do not think I may be lying?"

"You do not seem to be the type to lie to me, kind Sir," I said as I drank my second cup of tea. "Even if I asked for a hint, I doubt that you would hand it over to me so easily."

"You are quite interesting. How about I give you a hint if you are able to accurately guess my occupation?"

I already know where the jewel is and His Majesty being a King...

"You are a Noble..."

"Why do you say that?"

"Your clothes are of high quality from how the thickness of the fabric that they do not belong to a simple merchant..."

"I would not say that you are wrong...Now, what do I do as a Noble?"

"Order people around?"

"...The way you phrase it makes me sound like a tyrant. I am actually the King."

He revealed it...

"You are King as much as I am a Duke's Daughter..."

His Majesty chuckled softly.

He really does not look his age. Some might suspect that he is in his early twenties with his looks and demeanor. If only he would make gentle looks like this more often, maybe he would not be misunderstood so often.

"Your Majes...Sir Arun!" Father called out.

I quickly tried to hide under my hat.

"Oh, Triton..."

Triton is my father? His name is Triston Fire Maddox...my father being called Triton must be a nickname then. They seem very close. Even His Majesty seems relaxed in front of my father.

"Your Majes... Sir Arun, please call me by my name."

My father fumbled twice.

"We have known each other for a long time."

"That is no reason to...May I ask who this individual is?" Father asked.

I quickly bowed my head towards my father. I felt his hard stare bore a hole through me.

"A conversation companion," His Majesty replied.
