"What are you thinking about?" Ayumi asked as Arthur remained silent.
She wondered how this young man would respond to her words. Would he admit his shortcomings and stop with the nonsense?
Unfortunately, she could not understand the way of thinking of Arthur who had the experience of living in two worlds.
"I agree with everything you said," he said. "However, I think it's fine if I think of myself as the main character of this world. Unfortunately, there are no men like me here. Ohh, if you do find one, believe me, time will show our differences."
How could Arthur not dare to claim to be the main character in a small world when he was once one of the biggest figures in a world a thousand times bigger?
Hearing Arthur's answer, Ayumi couldn't help but freeze, looking at the young man in surprise. She hadn't expected that he would go that far, and she even felt as if he was the main character of this world.
The problem was that he was indeed too conspicuous compared to the other men.
This kind of thing was for example where he talked about his attraction to her.
Although perhaps all men in the world were attracted to Ayumi, but who had the courage to say all that with confidence. Most don't even have the chance to talk about it to her and those who do don't have the confidence. Even if they dare to say it, they will look like the frog praising the goose, hoping to be with the goose.
Ayumi suddenly felt sorry that this young man was European, not Japanese. Otherwise, she had no doubt the story of the main character and the princess would continue and develop because she couldn't argue that he was an attractive man.
And even with the difference in nation, and a restrictive rule, she couldn't help but think that the story would continue because Arthur was clearly a man who would do anything to get what he wanted. Plus, she herself seemed to enjoy the story.
Right now, she was wondering how she would answer Arthur's words.
This was enough to make her fall into confusion. And Arthur's gaze that did not move from her face at all only made it more difficult for her to think.
"You know that it's impossible." In the end, she could only say that because she was unable to think quickly, but at the same time had to answer immediately.
"Rules can be broken," Arthur replied.
"No, the rules of my empire cannot be broken." Ayumi answered immediately. Her tone was quite firm as if she was ready to fight with anyone who tried to change the rules.
"When I rule the earth, your empire will only be one of my provinces." Arthur continued to respond and this time it was enough to leave Ayumi unable to speak again for some time.
"You have such ambitions?" she said.
"No, you must not think about that or there will be conflict between us in the future," she added before Arthur could reply.
"The Empire of Japan will forever be a sovereign nation, under no one." And she didn't stop talking, obviously it was really like stepping on her foot.
However, Arthur responded with a quiet laugh.
"Actually I wasn't serious, I didn't expect your reaction to be like that. To be honest, although I've always been about building up power, taking over land and establishing a country isn't really something I'm interested in. Maybe I'll do it if the situation calls for it, but not to the extent that I'll continue to spend my entire life taking care of the country." He said.
"Plus, to be honest your appeal to me is your leaderly demeanor. I'm afraid I won't have any interest if you lose that."
"You're playing games with me." After hearing that, Ayumi could not help but blush. Even her neck turned slightly red, clearly embarrassed at being toyed with in an argument with a man younger than her.
"Ayumi, don't think too conservatively, just follow the destiny that has been set. Didn't you say that you're an open-minded woman? You can live more peacefully if you follow the desires in your heart, not be constrained by something like the rule of continuing the bloodline. I'm saying this not because of my desire for you, but to tell you that in a long life, something that makes you comfortable is the most important thing." Arthur added.
In the end, Ayumi fell silent again.
After a while, she said, "is this how you flirt with women?"
She looked at Arthur like she wanted to laugh at him, a reaction that was certainly unexpected so Arthur wondered what she was thinking.
"I don't think I've flirted with you yet," Arthur replied. "But well, if you think so, believe it or not, this is the first time I've ever flirted with a woman," Arthur replied.
"Hahaha..." Ayumi actually laughed after hearing that.
"I can't believe it," she said.
"Is that so? But by the way, has there been a man who interests you in Japan, don't tell me you're going to keep waiting?"
"You..." Those words were clearly enough to shake Ayumi's heart.
It wasn't that she never heard it, her mother or aunt sometimes said that because she was getting older but she didn't even have a fiancé yet.
If it continued like this, Japanese citizens would probably wonder if there was something wrong with her.
"You poor woman," Arthur continued.
"You insist on rules, but you can't even choose a man among your people? Ohhh, maybe you need to pretend to be a commoner, go to a village to do something. Maybe you will meet a man where you and he create a certain story so that feelings arise."
Ayumi, "..."
'What's in this boy's head? He wants me when he just talked about fucking my little sister. And he dares to want me when he has many women.' Ayumi silently cursed.
Actually, besides the rules, she also objected to the fact that Arthur was a man with many women.
Let's say Arthur is a Japanese man so their relationship doesn't run afoul of any rules, it's still hard to accept if she's going to join a Harem.
"Hey Arthur, what are you doing here?" Suddenly Harry's voice echoed loudly in the distance, startling Arthur and Ayumi who were staring at each other.
