Chapter 10 - General Makai (2) (2/2)
”There were three things I wanted from you.”
With such abrupt and bold confession, seems like, the king frowned and couldn't help but to gulp a mouthful of hot tea.
”First, I would like to conceal my identity as a woman. In short, I wanted to disguise myself as a guy. Second, I would like to be an ordinary loyal knight of your country. Third…” Makai threw a glance on her tea as though she was gazing on her reflection.
Then she continued…
”… I would like to change my name.”
Her eyes were so calm and clear as though there was no emotion you could ever saw from her face. Such solid composure she had, the king could just let out a sigh.
However…
With such type of requests and conditions offered by the princess, the king immediately doubted that King Asmodeus maybe had connection with the princess and her family's death five years ago!
King Wenscelas immediately relaxed his tensed face.
”If that is what you want princess, how dare I refuse such request? Only I could give you help in this way. By the way, what name should you use from now on?” He knew from himself that disguising as a guy although she was the strongest general in their continent, it would be really hard. The king's look slightly frowned enough not to notice by Makai.
At instant, the thin red lips of the princess immediately curved as her eyes exuded regality when it squinted.
With her clear and soft young lass' voice, she crisply said.
”Homer. From now on, please call me, Homer.”
