Judging by the gasps and whispers coming from around us, it looks like this was not something that was planned ahead of time where everyone else knew about it but me.
Heck, even Masuyama jerked in surprise when he heard the King's words so this was definitely not a case where it was me being left in the dark about it.
Before I could respond though, the Queen beside him raised her hand and slapped the King lightly on his arm.
"Dear… Please don't trouble our guests like that."
"Ha?! What's wrong with trying to get a good mate for my child? You're telling me I should just ignore the perfectly suitable mate for him when they have just appeared right in front of us?"
"You barely even know her, dear…"
"Oh my Queen, a Mercenary who isn't afraid of jumping straight into an enemy's den for the sake of justice? I think I know her enough to know she is definitely suitable!"
