Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 3975

General Grunt panicked and started to stutter as he trembled on his knees. "Those were fake rumors. The Princess is already arranged to marry Darryl and their wedding is just around the corner. How could I covet a woman who belongs to another man?"

Master Magaera pondered and said, "In that case, why don't you tell me why the Princess cares so much about your safety?"

The Princess committed a taboo by bringing a pure Yang body to Archfiend Antigonus for his rebirth in order to save General Grunt. Anyone else would be suspicious of that act.

General Grunt wiped off the sweat on his forehead and said softly, "Maybe… Maybe it was because the Princess saw that I've been loyal to His Majesty for so many years and did not have the heart to see me in trouble, and therefore came to my rescue."

At that point in time, he was extremely anguished. He was not able to admit his love for his beloved goddess, but he also needed to cover up his story with lies. That was indeed frustrating. However, he had no choice as Master Magaera could kill him at any time.

Master Magaera saw General Grunt trembling and nodded. "Great. Don't worry. I'm just checking with you. I'm relieved that nothing is going on between you and the Princess. You should know, the Princess is of nobility and her purity is essential to maintain her reputation. You should know your limits even if you admire the Princess. Never be emotional in your decisions and ruin your future."

"Yes. Yes…" General Grunt did not dare to retort and kept nodding.

Immediately, Master Magaera glanced at the surroundings. "The Princess' whereabouts are unknown. As the special envoy from the Godly Region sent to the Nine Mainland, you shouldn't slack even the slightest. You must assist me in searching for the Princess and report to me immediately should you have any news about it. You hear me?"

"Yes!" General Grunt nodded.

At that moment, his heart was racing. That was because Princess Dorothy was at the tavern nearby and if Master Magaera activated his fairy soul to sense his surroundings, his secret will be exposed. However, he was rather lucky that day. Master Magaera did not check the town carefully and soon left with the Great Weapon after saying a few words.

Upon their departure, the force oppressing the town disappeared quickly and the people who were frozen had been free to move around.

"What happened just now?"

"I don't know…"
