Chapter 122: The King has decided
He walked over to Reagan and whispered something in his ear.
Reagan Cooper looked at him momentarily in surprise but nodded and left the room quickly.
Recently, someone told him about a talented young investigator who was investigating that organization, but she didn't tell him the name. So, it was time to find out if this young man in front of him was the one he was talking about.
Still, he looked at Alice and smiled at her.
"Miss Alice, is everything written here real?" He asked, and Alice nodded at him.
"I wouldn't dare lie to you, Lord Dawid. I participated in the raids with Matt, as we are a team; Isla did too, and we can testify that everything is real. If you consider Matt's current accomplishments and want to give him a rank in the Kingdom, then you must understand his worth and give him a rank commensurate with what he deserves." Alice said and smiled slightly.
"I think my father knows his worth very well, so if you do not satisfy me, then I have no problem asking my father for a status for him within my Clan." She spoke.
This made the King frown.
'...This girl has grown up and become good at doing things. So, she wants to leave me with no outlets, huh? Still, she's right. His ability is important in our kingdom because there aren't many who can do investigation here. Besides, there's that important mission we were talking about a while ago; maybe he can do it.'
Although he could see that Alice was pushing him, he didn't mind because he understood Matt's value.
A young man capable of exercising theory that no one in millions of years could, is invaluable. The fact that his subordinates had figured it out first was too good to be true.
Perhaps he was not strong right now, but as long as he grew, he would reach incredible heights.
'He can fight for the throne. I have no sons, so it wouldn't be a bad idea for a boy supported by me to be the one to fight for the throne in the future.'
Several things were coming together in his head, causing him to hold Matt in even higher esteem than he already did.
While it was true that he already had a few people who could fight for the throne when he retired, one more wasn't a problem.
The problem was.
'This kid's mentality.' He thought and sighed.
He does not want to be tied to a kingdom, which makes it difficult for him to choose him as an heir to the throne.
When he thought like that, he frowned and looked at Matt.
He was standing firm there and brimming with energy.
'Their power is not equal to what I was told.' The King frowned as he realized this.
'If the Allens hadn't shut down all the information regarding this boy, maybe I could know more about him, but he has drastically increased his strength lately, which means he's very talented, ' he thought, bringing his hand to his chin.
Although he didn't want to think about this anymore, his mind betrayed him and kept giving him different clues and things he could use.
Still, after thinking for a while, he felt that Matt was not suited to be an Heir to the Throne, as Reagan Cooper had mentioned.
To the King, this young man he did not yet know was more suitable as a...
As he was thinking, the doors opened, and a beautiful voice that cheered him up came to him.
"Father, were you calling me? I was just about to go play." Said a beautiful woman as she entered through the front door.
Her long crimson-red hair was loose and billowing in the wind, while her beauty exuded an elegance worthy of nobility.
She was wearing an elegant gown that clung to her body. She was not dressed like royalty, but in a way that was easier for her to move in. Still, her gait and body movements made her look like a princess.
She was tall and long-legged, and her long, tight-fitting dress showed off her splendid figure with impressive hips.
When the King saw her, he smiled.
"My daughter, you are finally here. Come here. I want to ask you something, and then you can go do whatever you want." He said, smiling. His monarch aura disappeared at that moment.
In front of his daughter, he was just a father.
She walked towards him but was stunned when she passed Matt's side.
He looked at her and frowned, 'Miss Assassin?' He thought.
Although her voice sounded slightly different, her body odor could not be hidden from his nose.
So Matt was sure it was her.
She looked at him for a moment, stunned, 'What is he doing here?' She thought in shock but quickly diverted her attention as she saw Isla here, and next to her was that woman she had seen only in photographs - Alice Allen.
'What the hell is going on?' She thought and walked quickly to where her father was standing.
The King smiled and approached her ear to ask her something and show her the document.
She read the document and nodded. Although there were things she didn't know, it showed some of the research Matt had done and written; she wasn't going to get wrong in this.
So, she nodded to her father.
"That's him." She replied softly, and her father smiled.
'I don't need to doubt anymore. If this boy isn't one of them, then who could he be?' He thought and stood up once more.
Immediately, the aura on his body transformed into the aura of a monarch.
His power was unleashed impressively, causing all the army members present to lower their heads in respect.
Even Matt felt the need to lower his head at such an intimidating presence.
'It's not an ability he activates. It's his true aura as a monarch... How does that develop? I feel it gives him immense presence.' Matt thought in surprise.
The King then looked at him.
