It seems that the Northern Kingdom might have threatened Prince Lucian, or made some promises... or perhaps both?
Queen Veronica, after glancing at the Northern Kingdom's foreign minister and guessing the possible tactics of the other side, did not ask directly. Instead, she gazed intently at the lean, dark-skinned middle-aged man and calmly reminded him:
"Prince Lucian, this matter is of great importance to both our nations, so you do not need to make a decision right now. You can certainly wait for a few days, send someone to contact Queen Sena to see her true stance, and additionally..."
After glancing at the Northern Kingdom's foreign minister, Queen Veronica slightly raised her voice, as if speaking both to Prince Lucian and to all the envoys:
"The interests of the kingdom may not completely align with yours, but if your kingdom, due to your rash decision, loses what it should have gained, I'm sure it's an outcome none of us wish to see."
This response speed… impressive!
