"Is the king not good in bed?"
Edda questioned in a low voice.
A wry smile appeared on Allura's face and then she shook her head.
"Let's not talk about this, you tell me, how i-"
"Heeh? Lady Allura, that's not fair you know? I share so many things with you and you don't share anything with me. Am I just a source of entertainment for you?" Suddenly, Edda questioned with a sad look on her face.
"No, it's not like that." Allura quickly shook her head.
Initially, Edda was nothing more than a source of entertainment for Allura, however, for some reason, after that long talk between her and Edda yesterday, Allura felt that she was a little closer to Edda.
She wasn't just a source of entertainment, she actually cared about Edda a little.
"Then why aren't you sharing anything with me? Don't worry, you can share whatever you want with me, I won't tell anyone else.
Now tell me, is the king bad in bed?
Does he have a small weapon?"
Edda questioned.
Allura's face widened in surprise when she heard her question, She didn't expect Edda to be so…
Perverted.
"C'mon, Lady Allura, tell tell, does the king have a small weap- mhphhf?" Edda questioned again.
"You are really daring huh, Edda. Don't you know? If the king learns what you are saying, you will be executed!" Allura questioned.
"Aren't we the only 2 here? How will the king know about me? You won't out me, will you, Lady Allura?" Edda questioned back.
"Walls have ears, you know? Especially walls of the Royal Palace." Allura smiled as she pointed toward the walls.
However, rather than a panicked expression that Allura thought Edda would show, a small smile appeared on Edda's face as she muttered,
"Heh. Don't worry, Lady Allura. My lover will save me if something happens."
Allura raised her eyebrow and questioned.
"Hmm? You think he can save you from the king of this kingdom?"
"He can do anything, Lady Allura. With him around me, I do not fear anything." Edda's smile then widened and she continued.
"So, Lady Allura, do not worry about my security, just tell me the truth, is the King's weapon too small?"
A sad smile appeared on Allura's face as she shook her head.
"Hmph! I hoped that was the case… At least it would be better than my current situation."
Actually, she has been hiding this for a long while and didn't dare to say anything out loud however, now that Edda, who took interest in this topic and asked without fearing anything, Allura thought about something as well.
If even the head maid isn't scared, then why should she be?
She needed to share her miseries as well.
"Hmm? What does that mean?" Edda questioned.
She got a feeling that she was going to learn something important.
"Outwardly, the king may seem an average king, not too good, not too bad, however, don't you think he is too normal?" Allura questioned.
"Huh?" Edda frowned.
An Average King, everyone calls him that.
Not too good, not too bad.
This was like a catchphrase used to describe the King of the Skyfall Kingdome.
'Don't you think he is too normal?'
Edda thought about this question, soon, however, she shook her head.
"I never thought about the king too deeply, Lady Allura."
"That is understandable." ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
Allura nodded and then continued.
"There is a reason why everyone finds the king average and that is because he doesn't really care about this kingdom and its affairs."
"Huh?"
"Yes, he doesn't spend much time in affairs of the kingdoms. He just accepts whatever his subjects propose. Some decisions are good, some are bad, therefore, he comes out as average."
"But won't his subjects use this fact to their advantage and eventually control everything themselves? Why aren't they doing anything like that?" Edda couldn't help but question.
"That I do not know. However, I have seen the king handling the official affairs once. He doesn't think and listen to anything; he just hears the solution the subjects came up with and agrees with it without even knowing the initial problem.
The only thing he cares about is ending everything as soon as possible."
"B-But why is he always so eager to leave? What else does he do other than ruling the kingdom?" Edda questioned.
A wry smile appeared on Allura's face and she answered.
"He is a 'Trophy Collector' or that's what he likes to call himself." "Trophy Collector?" Edda frowned.
"Yes, a Trophy Collector.
He likes collecting Trophies, or in other words, he likes collecting women." Allura revealed with a dissatisfied look on her face.
"So he is a playboy?" Edda questioned.
"He can be called a playboy, but…
But he is a little strange."
"Hmm? Why?"
"Once he has sex with a woman, he would never touch that woman again.
This is also the reason why he only has 6 children even though he has 4 wives, 50 concubines and countless other women outside the Royal Palace.
Only those who were 'lucky enough' to bear a child gave birth to one, as for the rest, they were trophies, never touched or cared for again."
Allura revealed and gritted her teeth in anger.
Edda's eyes widened in surprise as well.
People always wondered why the king only had 6 children.
Now she knows the reason.
"Heh. What a bastard, that king." Edda couldn't help but mutter.
"You really aren't scared of death huh…" Allura shook her head, however, a smile appeared on her face.
She agreed with Edda.
"As I said, my lover would protect me. I am not scared." Edda answered.
A sad smile appeared on Allura's face,
"You are lucky to have a lover like that…" She muttered.
Suddenly, a small smile appeared on Edda's face as she answered,
"Don't worry, Lady Allura. Soon, you will find your happiness as well."
Allura chuckled dryly.
She knew Edda was just saying it for the sake of saying it.
She didn't really mean it.
Edda knew what she was thinking and shook her head.
She then noticed the sad look on Allura's face and decided to change the topic.
The two of them started talking about another topic, then they talked about another topic, then another, and then a different one.
They talked for the whole night and then Edda excused herself.
'Nux, Nux' She called while she was walking in the corridor. She needed to deliver this good news.
'This is important, you have to know this.'
