42 Chapter 41: A Journey into the Unknown 14 (2/2)

”Open your mouth” He ordered

Then I eventually woke up from the daze and stared at the food offered in front of me.

”What is this?” I asked

”Food” He said shortly

”What did you mix in it?” I asked again

”Just eat!” He said, annoyed by the fact that I ask too many questions. But I can't help, he is a complete stranger to me

”O-okay” I answered

I opened my mouth and started eating. The food is somehow delicious and I love its distinct taste. It did not take me long before I finished the whole bowl. Then servants came in again and gathered the empty tray. Another batch of servants came and brought clothes for me, I assume.

”Where am I?” I asked

”You're in a faraway place”

He stood and walked towards the windows, then he stared outside.

”Why am I here?”

”It was your request to go somewhere far from home to recuperate” he answered

”What's your name?”

I waited for an answer but he didn't answer

”Why am I here?” I asked the same question again

”You are here because it is your choice, and to stay here will still be your choice”

But nothing's free in this world, so how much will it cost me to stay here?

”How much will it cost me?” I asked

”Just a marriage” He answered

”Oh just a marriage, a little thing—JUST WHAT THE HECK DID YOU SAY? DID YOU SAY MARRIAGE! FREAKING MARRIAGE!--”

”Tone down, I am not deaf”

Holy crap!

This is one of those moments that I'll say 'I'm doomed'
