“Like hell it is,” Ann shouted and then continued to say, “Anna trusted you and risked my family’s reputation to get you the dungeon relocation apparatus. So you better prove what you claim instead of making empty talks.”

The Southern Royal family had stood tall in this world for millennia and they took great pride in their brilliant and spotless honor. That was something people took very seriously. But under the boy’s whim, Anna had done something that would risk all the hard work and sacrifice their ancestors had taken to maintain the revered honor of their family throughout the millennia of their existence. Ann, Loreno, and Colleen wanted the boy to give them a good reason that it was all worth it.
“How the heck am I supposed to prove to you without revealing my important findings?” I almost managed to dodge the responsibility and consequences for my part in Anna stealing the dungeon relocation apparatus and risking the Southern royal family’s reputation. However, Ann shone the spotlight on me. I could feel Lorenzo and Anna’s grandma’s gaze sticking to my skin.
“I don’t care you were the one who asked us to act fast and that you would explain later. We have acted and now it is your turn to explain,” As much as she wants to get along with the boy her ideal daughter trait of her doesn’t allow her to let down her family. So even if she did not want to she had to come down hard on the boy. Like an ideal daughter, Ann was prioritizing the interest of her family over her personal interests.
“Don’t you think you are being a bit unreasonable? How am I supposed to prove to you guys that I can use the dungeon relocation apparatus to create the required conditions to summon a dungeon similar to silver beach dungeon while maintaining the secrecy of my findings,” I was in a tough spot, I could not share the truth with the trio and without that, I could not give them the guarantee they were asking that what I was proposing would work? I thought I could bluff my way into getting what I wanted but Ann happened, I really miss my Anna.
“Unreasonable? Weren’t you being unreasonable when you asked Anna to steal the parts of the dungeon relocation apparatus without giving us a proper explanation? Now it is your turn,” Ann was on fire, and Colleen and Lorenzo nodded in agreement.
“Well the only way I can do what you are asking of me is by using the dungeon relocation apparatus to summon the dungeon. Get me the dungeon relocation apparatus and I will summon the dungeon,” This was quite a dilemma, I could only prove what I said was feasible by doing what I said. And the trio was asking me to prove what I said was feasible before doing what I said.
Listening to the boy’s words Lorenzo and Ann frowned. However, Colleen’s eyes shone with brilliance as if she had thought of something brilliant, “Boy, remember this is what you said. You can’t go back on that.”
“Yes, get me the dungeon relocation apparatus and I will show you what I can use to create the required conditions to summon a dungeon,” I happily agreed, thinking this would put the matter to bed but I was wrong.
“Okay, now sleep,” hearing the boy agree Colleen instantly reached to grab his wrist not giving the boy a chase to react Colleen froze the boy, turning him into a popsicle.
“Grandma,” Ann exclaimed seeing her grandma freezing the boy in an ice block.
“…” Lorenzo stared at his sister-in-law in shock. He thought one or another day she would lose patience with the boy and shoot at him but he did not believe that moment would come so soon.
“Oh, relax, he is fine. I just put him under a cryosleep,” Colleen explained to her granddaughter and Lorenzo as if this was no big deal.
“I see, but why?” Ann asked in confusion, not understanding why her grandma put the boy under cryosleep, unless– unless she plans to kidnap him and take him to the southern capital. Coming to this conclusion Ann turned big in shock.
“Your Highness, you are a bit hasty. This will not help the situation,” Lorenzo shook his head disapproving of the actions of his sister-in-law. Lorenzo is a strong supporter of the idea that they should lock up the boy in a basement and have him serve the Southern royal family for the rest of his life. But he also knew with the temper of the boy he would only end up very poor compared to the way they imagined.
“What are you guys worried about? He was the one who said that he needed the dungeon relocation apparatus to prove to us that he can create the conditions to summon a dungeon similar to the silver beach dungeon, so I am taking him to the dungeon relocation apparatus. What’s the big deal,” Colleen said nonchalantly.
“Grandma, he is going to be so pissed when he wakes up,” Ann commented feeling that this could be the strain that would break the connection between the boy and Anna and send him straight into the arms of the floozy Susan.
“So, what?” Colleen could care less about the boy’s tantrum. She was the freaking ruler of the South, she could do anything she wanted, let alone freeze one of her citizens and move him to the Southern palace for his safety.
