"Nonsense!" Rei said. "Pull your head back from the clouds! King Raven is totally not like any other royals of the past. Besides, his biological father, Head Sage Yue, only had one wife!"
"That's only because I heard that Crown Princess Pica of the Obsidian Kingdom made him a eunuch before she left!" the girl sneered.
"What the hell are you even saying?!" Rei cried. "Do you want to bite the hands that fed you?! If not for King Raven and Queen Mana and Head Sage Yue, we would still be living on the streets, desperately hungry and not knowing if we would survive the night!"
"I am grateful," the girl said. "But I want more. I don't want to make pizzas in a café for the rest of my life, married to some small shop owner! I used to be the young lady of a noble family before my family went bankrupt and we were forced to live on the streets – and I want to go back to that life of riches and luxury. Just you watch, Rei, I will become an imperial concubine sooner or later!"
