A Story Of A Country That Got Isekai'd

Chapter 96 - Short Respite

KINGDOM OF CARDONIA
PALACE

The large dining hall are filled with different Cardonian and 'Earthly' cuisines. The Cardonian King personally invited the two Princesses, Penelope and Lylah, for a grand breakfast. And they are in the dining table not as their country's official and representatives but as the owner of the house and his guests.

And for half an hour, the old Cardonian King were enjoying the presence of the two lovely ladies.

"I would really love to have you as your daughters!" he excitingly exclaimed as he laughed on Penelope's story as she was exploring Cardonia.

"Grandpa!" retorted Prince Andruei as he sliced off a thin piece of glazed ham. He fully knows what the King meant.

"I would be glad Your Majesty! I totally prefer to be married to Prince Andruei rather be used as diplomatic tool and be married off on some faraway land!" replied Penelope, not realizing what her statement implied, sge continued on with her Belgian waffles.

"HAHAHA! It's high time that my beloved grandson has his lover! I wish I would live long enough to see my great grandson or daughter!" merrily replied the King.

"But in a serious note, you should marry the one you love my dear Penelope. Cardonia have long gone departed the traditional fixed marriages." the King added, his serious tone has then dimmed the lively moment.

"Your Majesty! Such statements could be taken as a serious remark than a joke!" said Andruei.

"Ehh? But I think I found my love? Then I have all tge requitements! I even have the King's blessing!" merrily replied Penelope.

"EHHH???!!!!" said the confused Andruei, he was left staring at Penelope who is good in playing innoncent.

"It seems we have the same tradition Your Majesty, I believe it because of my great grandmother who have fought for her love, which is the summoned hero." said Lylah as she tried to join the lively conversation, she is enjoying a freshly baked Cardonian moist bread and some cream cheese.

"Oho, that is pretty interesting. It seems your great grandfather, that summoned hero you say has really left his mark on your country." said the King.

"It seems to be the case Your Majesty." replied Lylah.

"But I can really see you together with my eldest grandson. Hopefully you two can meet before you depart and I don't know maybe get along too much. You are an ideal Queen for Cardonia, Lylah! You have my vote!" added the King.

"I...I haven't even met the Crown Regent." mumbles Lylah.

"What is really going on?! Why are we talking about love and marriages?! And why does it sound so easy?!" ranted Prince Andruei.

"HAHAHA, it's a nice change of pace my beloved grandson, don't be too stingy at your old man!" replied the King.

"Seriously your are out of your character Your Majesty!" said Andruei, this has then left the two Princess to finally wonder why this stern King is acting so merrily.

After a few more chats and laughs they've proceeded to munch down on their breakfasts and each has gone on their way.

The King of course has to supervise how the country is being ran with the help of the nobility and the parliament.

The two Princesses would be having another set of dialogues with top Cardonian companies on the issues of export and import, establishing a secure line of communications and navigation aides were already the issues being discussed. They are so close in establishing a trade route.
