The Absolute Authority

The common folks gasped hard upon hearing Lith's statement and thought of him to be a dead man.

They were just the everyday folks and didn't know how the nobility was, nor their ways of chivalry.

While everyone was gasping, the King looked at Lith with interest and rubbed his beard while the Queen seemed slightly concerned for Lith's wellbeing.

"My liege, please pardon that man's insolence and ignorance." The blue-haired Queen said softly, not wanting to see bloodshed for unnecessary reasons.

King Nishkavert, after thinking of things deeply, looked at Lith with the same interested look as before and said, "You can get killed for your arrogant words, peasant."

"Peasant?" Lith replied back immediately and then chuckled.

Never once had been called in such a manner and never once had he or anyone in his own kingdom referred to the common folks in such a way.
