Chapter 703 - Red or Blue Pill, You Choose Wifey.

Back in Arcadina, The entire Capital was buzzing with gossip.

Today was the day for Alec's grand execution.

It was said that alongside Alec, several other nobles would be executed too.

This made everyone very curious about the soon-to-be new king that ordered corrupt and wicked nobles to be executed.

He seemed like a man who was for the people.

Yup!

He was still their soon-to-be king because the coronation day was set for next week.

But even though he hadn't been crowned, everyone knew that he was king.

And within Arcadina's palace, William was currently getting refugees for the execution ceremony.

.

William raised his hands at shoulder-level while 4 butlers currently dressed him up.

And when he was done, he sat down and allowed them to comb his air and prepare him as they usually do.

Of course as they did this, his most trusted aides just stood by the side patiently.

"Our young master is as handsome as ever!"

"Hahahhha!

I'm sure that when those noblewomen see him, they would all be blushing shyly and trying their best to get his attention."

"Eh?

But wouldn't this be a problem to his Majesty later on?"

"What do you mean?"

"Have you forgotten that his majesty has a crush on you know who back in Baymard?

If sister-in-law came here and saw so many women go after the young master, wouldn't she be discouraged?"

"You're right.

I think...hm?

Why does it suddenly feel cold in here?"

The aides all looked at William's cold face in unison and shivered.

"It seems like you have a lot of free time on your hands.

So why don't I assign some more tasks for you to complete?"

"Ahh!... no young master!

We'll leave you to yourself and wait for you outside."

"Yes young master.

We'll wait for you outside."

With that, William's aides all fled for their lives hastily.

F**!

How did they forget that their master seemed to be sensitive to anything related to sister-in-law?

One might really think that she had fed him with some love potion or something.

William looked at his fleeing aides silently.

'Hmph!

How can she flee because of this?

His wifey was not afraid of a little challenge'.

He scoffed and continued looking at himself in the massive mirror before him.

.

After Landon rescued him from Eli and Connor, he had spent several weeks in Baymard before Alec arrived with his troops.

And at that time, William had already gotten the help of Landon to chase his future wife.

Of course since she was a security guard within the landport, she was free than those in the barracks and whatnot.

So she actually lived in an apartment within District E.

Their first encounter was when William visited Baymard way back for the first time.

So this time, he and Landon come up with a plan for him to coincidentally meet her this time.

And so the plan worked and he slowly began to make his move.

For now, he planned to clear all obstacles within Arcadina first before marrying her.

He planned to still keep his identity a secret and visit her more often.

He would get engaged with her first while dealing with Arcadina's problems simultaneously.

And when she turned 20, he would marry her.

From the time that he spent with her, he knew tht she had started devising feelings for him too.

And so bi-weekly, he would write several letters and send them to her.

One should know that he and London had an agreement of having someone from Baymard deliver mail between them biweekly.

In this way, if any of them was ever in trouble or in need of anything, the other would get the news rather than getting it 4 months later.

So bi-weekly, Landon sent out special teams to and fro Baymard.

And while one team drove towards Arcadina, another team left Arcadina and journeyed towards Baymard instead.

Rosters for mail delivery between rulers of these two empires were strategically selected in a way that gave the soldiers time to rest.

.

There were 30 teams in total and only 2 teams were selected each month to deliver mail bi-weekly.

So each team might only be selected to deliver mail again several months after finishing a mission.

This service was considered classified and of his importance since it was mail or secret information that needed to be passed between 2 rulers.

The soldiers might encounter assassins or even enemies that tried to steal this information, so all teams took these missions seriously.

Anyway, William used this to send his mail to his future wife through Landon.

Of course, the clueless girl always received it in her mailbox just like an ordinary person would.

Again, William told her that when she replied, she should just take it to his 'friend' who lives in one of the apartments in District H.

The so-called friend was actually one of his subordinates who was left behind.

This subordinate was here to look after the house that he had personally purchased for a period of 2 years.

This was the home that he and his family stayed in while laying low in Baynard.

That said, the subordinate took the mail from his future wife and made sure that Landon's men got it instead.

And the rest was history.

The whole process seemed tiresome.

But to William, it was totally worth it!

With her, he was sure that he could live a happy life like his parents.

Since he grew up seeing his parents living themselves and involving no other person in their marriage, William was also a man who believed in having just 1 wife too.

And she was the only one who had ever made his heart move.

He had travelled in disguise and even so many beautiful women who were just shallow beings inside.

And even when he saw some that were both beautiful on the inside and outside, he still wasn't attracted or moved by them.

But she was different.

She was the one!

As Landon had told him, all that was left was for her to take the red or blue pill... whatever that means.

.

'Knock! Knock! Knock!'

"Your majesty, it's almost time for the ceremony to begin."

"Alright, let's go.

Let's behead the Tyrant."
