Chapter 237: A Father's Cunning

"Father, you can't! You don't even have your full strength back yet!" Lasinda pleaded with tears beginning to fall from her eyes. Her sadness was palpable. She definitely didn't want her father fighting her potential fiancé! 

Her father, Mernan, when he was king before he was sick, was extremely smart and cunning. He would say one thing, and then trick his opponents by doing the exact opposite. Of course, she didn't expect that he'd be shameless enough to almost instantly go back to his old ways!

He'd seemed like a meek man just a few hours ago, but now he was immediately back to his old self! He walked over to Howard and smiled before patting him on the head. The two of them smiled at each other like they both understood the others intentions.

'What is going on? Why are they both laughing?' Lasinda looked at her father's white hair and his large frame from behind, along with his massive shoulders. She hadn't felt intimidated of him in such a long time.
