Chapter 527 - Tale of Rain Part 9 (1/2)
The Rain Kingdom is famous for the reputation of their Princes but among them is the frail Second Prince. Despite his talents and intelligence due to his poor health he could not attend conferences or deal with the Kingdom's political affairs officially. Currently, he sits on the couch in one of the palace's most lavish rooms. Despite the grand design of the place, the surroundings were a mess.
So much work…
Isaki always felt bad that he could not do much to help. A useless second Prince huh? Normally the second Prince would be in charge of supporting the First Prince, the Crown Prince with work and yet..
His thoughts broke off when somebody entered the room.
”It is rare for you to call for me first brother and yet your late.”
A deep sigh passed his lips. ”I was meeting with the foreign ambassadors.”
”Ah, the ones our father told us to entertain in his absence?”
”Those people have no interest in the Kingdom's political scene at all, they only want to drink, eat, and fool around.”
”They are people our father have chosen. Anyhow, what did you need me for?” Isaki did not want to dwell on this topic because it would make him feel worse.
I should be there to help him.
”Those two, how are they?”
”You mean Rhys and Little Lyn?” Isaki immediately understood. Despite how busy first brother is with his work, Isaki noted that he paid special attention to those two. ”They are getting along very well.”
”Is that so? Thank goodness.”
Could it be that first brother also thinks that Lyn should be Rhys' wife? Actually he thought the same. The girl fit the profile to be Rhys future wife. She is not too high in the nobility status to the point that she would crave power, as the second Princess she has more leeway. Her role would be a support one and she would not fight for the throne. So it would not matter if she married Rhys and remained in the Rain Kingdom.
Isaki had also been doing a lot of thinking on this matter. Rhys may be young but he is very promising. People even consider him as a candidate as the next King due to his achievements.
Isaki was about to say something when Tetsuki burst into coughs. That would be normal due to the unusually cold temperature today but his eyes widened horrified seeing the blood. ”Wait, I thought you went to see a specialist?”
After Tetsuki collapsed last time, Isaki suggested he go and see the high priest. The temple here in the Rain Kingdom is famous for the priests who can use high level magic. It is not healing magic exactly but their magic helps dispel bad toxins.
”Do I need to? You are here.”
Isaki bit his lip and he shook his head. ”Even you understand that my medical knowledge is limited.”
”I am aware but do you want me to ask our little brother for help?”
By little brother, he was referring to Rhys who people have also regarded as a medical genius.
Isaki sighed. ”Just for today. You must go to the temple after this. But can I confirm something? Are you that concerned about the kids?”
”A little,” Tetsuki admitted. ”I hope this is not a simple fascination since the girl appears to be serious.”
Huh...what?
”She came to me and asked how marriage works in the Rain Kingdom. I told her that unless our father had the time, we make our own marriage arrangements.”
