Chapter 550: Marrying the Holy Queen, and getting two more as a bonus?
In all honesty, the Holy Queen of the Holy Kingdom was truly beautiful. Her looks, which could be called a national treasure by the Holy Kingdom, were even superior to those of Renner or Lakyus.
In this world, the only women Shengzai had seen who could compare to her were probably the Elf Queen Emi-Lena and Albedo, known as the shame of the succubi.
However, so what if the other party was beautiful? Shengzai was a man who was going to build a harem in another world.
Compared to Lakyus, who was a childhood friend but whom he regarded more as a little sister, he and the Holy Queen had absolutely no emotional foundation, right?
If it were just a "friends with benefits" situation, Shengzai probably wouldn't mind, but one of them was a prince and the other was a queen—was this even possible?
Moreover, if he married into the Queen's family, he still wanted to build a harem in the future—was he dreaming?
Marrying Lakyus, with his status as a prince, he could at least take a few concubines; after all, that was how medieval Western-style kingdoms were, and Lakyus couldn't say anything.
But marrying into the Holy Kingdom was different. Calca was the Holy Queen, and he, Shengzai, would be more like the "Holy Queen Consort."
You, a "Queen Consort," still want to build a harem—is this reasonable?
In short, the Holy Queen was beautiful, but if she wanted Shengzai to give up an entire forest for her, then sorry, that was absolutely impossible.
"Lakyus Alvein Dale Aindra, captain of the Kingdom's adamantite-ranked adventurer team 'Blue Rose.'
She is not only your marriage partner but also your childhood friend who grew up with you, right?"
Before listing Shengzai as a marriage candidate, the Holy Queen had naturally investigated Shengzai's situation.
And what surprised the Holy Queen was that Shengzai was not only excellent in external conditions, but his strength, strategy, and talent were also top-tier.
What was even more rare was that this Prince Shengzai clearly had excellent conditions and background, and there were no shortage of noble girls in the Kingdom who admired him, but this prince had always kept himself clean.
Nobles were corrupt and decadent; although she was at the pinnacle of power in the Holy Kingdom, the Holy Queen had to admit that this was the case in every country.
Even her trusted older brother was said to sleep with more than two female companions every night.
Although he still had quite a bit of confidence in the foundation left by the Ainz Ooal Gown guild.
It was one thing to be handsome, but he was also powerful; it was one thing to be capable, but his character was also impeccable.
There were even rumors in the Kingdom that the reason Shengzai refused those noble girls who threw themselves at him was entirely because Shengzai loved his fiancée Lakyus deeply.
Of course, there were also bad rumors saying that it was because Prince Shengzai was not capable in that department...
Of course, the Holy Queen didn't believe the latter rumor.
After all, she was also a victim of rumors, and after witnessing Shengzai's power to make demi-humans transform, she didn't believe that Shengzai, who possessed such great power, would have that kind of problem.
Therefore, in the Holy Queen's view, Prince Shengzai keeping himself clean was entirely because he had noble character and was extremely loyal to his fiancée.
It was because he loved his fiancée that he refused other noble girls who showed him affection.
In the Holy Queen's view, this was not a minus point, but a plus point.
However, if Shengzai knew what the Holy Queen was thinking right now, he would definitely be extremely bewildered.
He kept himself clean? No, no, no. He had lived in the Kingdom for so long, and he had never encountered any noble girls who wanted to climb into his bed.
Renner: (*`へ*) My foolish older brother, that's because those noble girls had their thoughts and signs nipped in the bud by your capable little sister!
And who do you think spread the rumor that Prince Shengzai was not capable?
A bunch of mediocre women wanting to lay their hands on her older brother—it was simply ridiculous!
"If it is Miss Lakyus, if Prince Shengzai agrees to form a marriage alliance with me, I can let her become your concubine.
But correspondingly, I also hope Prince Shengzai can agree to one condition."
The Holy Queen thought Shengzai and Lakyus were true love, and she didn't want to break them up.
However, she was the Holy Queen of the Holy Kingdom, and Lakyus was only a noble of the Kingdom. Even if they really married, the primary wife had to be her.
Shengzai didn't expect that in order to complete the marriage alliance, the Holy Queen would make such a big concession.
Although he didn't have much interest in this beautiful woman in front of him, Shengzai was curious about what the condition was that she wanted him to agree to after making such a big concession.
"If Prince Shengzai forms a marriage alliance with me, I can agree to let Miss Lakyus become your concubine.
Even because of Prince Shengzai's excellent ability, I can let you govern the entire Holy Kingdom with me and let our future children inherit the throne.
But correspondingly, I also hope that besides me and Miss Lakyus, Prince Shengzai can also take Remedios and Kelart as concubines.
I know this is very difficult for Prince Shengzai, who is loyal in love, but this is something I once promised Remedios and Kelart—that we would be together forever..."
When he heard the additional condition proposed by the Holy Queen, Shengzai was truly stunned on the spot.
There was actually such a good thing!
Buy one get two free? Marrying a Holy Queen and getting a Paladin and a High Priestess as a bonus?
And setting aside their personalities, Remedios and Kelart were also rare beauties in this other world!
Honestly, if the Holy Queen hadn't proposed this additional condition earlier, Shengzai would probably have refused her without hesitation.
But now that this additional condition was out, Shengzai admitted that he was a bit hesitant.
Lakyus was an adventurer, Calca was a Holy Queen, and Remedios and Kelart were a Paladin and a High Priestess respectively.
And all four of them were one-in-a-million beauties; this was probably the configuration of a protagonist in an adult anime.
"Um, Your Majesty the Holy Queen, this additional condition you just mentioned is truly a bit absurd.
And by doing this, have you asked for the opinions of Lady Remedios and Lady Kelart?"
The point of the problem was, if they didn't cooperate, what was he supposed to do?
"Regarding this point, Prince Shengzai need not worry, because I have already asked for the opinions of Remedios and Kelart before.
They said that as long as they can be with us, then it's no problem, and they are actually quite satisfied with Prince Shengzai.
After all, Prince Shengzai is not only impeccable in all aspects, but also helped our Holy Kingdom solve the problem that has troubled us for many years."
Holy Queen, I didn't expect you to be even better at playing than the protagonist of an adult anime!
