Healthy Rivalry

'Seriously, are we going to have this talk right now?!' Yuuta exclaimed in his head, doing his best to shift his expression into a convincing poker face.

Truth be told, Astrid is beautiful for her age. She has her dad's red hair and her mom's brown eyes, and she has the figure of royalty.  Furthermore, she was also dead-set on aiming for Yuuta as her fiancee... or so that's what Yuuta saw after using his Clairvoyance Skill on her. "I am not familiar with the customs here in the world of Lucid, your highness, but in our world, I had to wait for two more years before I could marry someone."

"You mean, it's illegal in your world to marry at sixteen? How unusual."

Yuuta simply nodded. He didn't want to go to the specifics on such a delicate topic. "I do find your daughter attractive, Your Highness." He went on, hoping that his comment would please the King.
