Chapter 22

"Queen Yuuko, why did you want to meet us?" Queen Ruyi took an empty seat beside Queen Yuuko. "Not that I'm complaining, but you mentioned that it's an emergency."

"It is an emergency, however, it's Madam that I'm looking for," Queen Yuuko corrected and turned to look at 'Madam'.

"So you wish for mercenary help?"

The 'Madam' took a seat right beside Rozenbach and looked at him in curiosity. "My help? Is it related to this beautiful lady?"

"Yes," Queen Yuuko sighed. "Lady Rosaline, meet Queen Ruyi and her younger brother, Guan Zhong. Guan Zhong is a very famous mercenary."

Rozenbach hurriedly stood up. "R-Rosaline greets Queen Ruyi and Prince Guan Zhong."

"I'm not a prince so there's no need to address me as one. It's Elder Sister Ruyi that's married into royalty, so just call me Guan Zhong."

"I-I see."

"Just call him Madam," Queen Yuuko said with a sly grin. "Look at him, does he not look like a Madam?"

Rozenbach noted that Guan Zhong did have a clean and white face, but decided that it might have been the bright red fur scarves that contributed to the 'Madam' title.

"You keep on calling me madam just because of that one particular cross-dressing incident," Guan Zhong groaned but there was no anger towards Queen Yuuko. "You are a rich madam too, Potato."

"I'm broke!" Queen Yuuko suddenly wailed in frustration. "I'm still paying the construction fees!"

Queen Ruyi raised an eyebrow upon hearing that. "You still have not cleared your debts?"

"I need to pay it out from my own pocket! But I've already used a large sum of it to pay back the damages that I caused to Princess Ruri's property."

Rozenbach was very curious about the love triangle involving Cookie, Yuuko, and Ruri. It seemed that everyone from even other Kingdoms had heard about this incident!

"How are you going to pay it back now?" Guan Zhong asked.

As Royalty, they were not allowed to use the funds collected from citizens for personal use or they would be heavily punished by Voltaire law.

"I will sell my art!" Queen Yuuko declared with intense burning eyes. "I have new inspiration thanks to Lady Rozie!"

T-thanks to me?! What did I inspire in Queen Yuuko?

"Give me a look after you are done. I think my men would be interested in the painting inspired by a beauty," Guan Zhong said.

After Guan Zhong said that, the group of men behind him glanced at Rozenbach a few times before quickly looking away with reddened ears.

Rozenbach shivered in disgust! He would rather prefer ladies look at him that way!

Unfortunately for Rozenbach, his shivering was interpreted in a totally different way. The gentlemen assumed that the beauty had to be feeling shy from their gaze!

They all decided to stop staring at the shy beauty, which suited Rozenbach well. He even silently praised himself for able to convey his disgust without getting into a fight.
