122 Chapter 121- How Dare You Insult My Wife!

"You can't be serious," Aurora uttered after Zach said he would get along with her father.

"Why not? He sounds like a nice guy."

"I do agree that he is a nice father. And he is a nice king too. But he is a terrible husband," Aurora sighed. "He makes too many mistakes and doesn't even realize them until someone points it out."

"Well, he is the king, and he has a huge responsibility to run the kingdom," Zach snorted. "Give that man some slack."

Aurora squinted her eyes and said, "I seriously can't believe you are taking his side."

"I am not. But I can sympathize with my future father-in-law," Zach sneered.

"Wow, great. Now you have already started calling him your father-in-law," Aurora groaned.

Zach licked Aurora's cheeks and said, "So, do you not want me to call you my future wife?"

"How dare you touch me like that!" a familiar voice shouted in the crowd.

Zach recognized the voice even without looking. It belonged to Aria.

"What happened?" someone from the crowd asked.

Aria pointed her finger at the man and said, "This man tried to touch me on my back."

"But that's how the dance is supposed to be," the man retorted.

"I can tell the difference between the touch," Aria remarked. "I danced with five other men before you, and it was a pleasant dance. But—"

"Enough!" the man yelled. "Who invited this bitch to the party?"

"What did you just call me?!"

Zach let go of Aurora and grabbed the man from behind.

"What did you just call her?" Zach asked in a raspy and emotionless voice.

"Who are you?!" The man yelled. "You don't know me! I am the—"

Zach choked the man's neck and made him unable to speak. The man struggled to breathe and tried to break free from Zach's grip, but he couldn't even budge Zach's finger.

Zach clenched the man's neck more and said, "Who are you?! Do you know who I am?"

The man could barely move his limbs as the light in his eyes slowly started fading away.

The longer Zach looked at the man's face, the angrier he got.

However, five guards came and tried to stop Zach from killing the man, but even they couldn't do anything. Then, Aquitius the sixth got off the stage and placed his hand on Zach's hand that was choking the man.

"Stop this instant," he said. "This man is an important guest."

Zach glared into Aquitius' eyes and said, "Look at me and tell me, does it look like I give a shit about that?"

"I understand why you are angry, but you cannot kill him," the sixth said in a calm voice. However, his legs were trembling in fear.

"He insulted my… my wife!"

"I will make sure he will apologize for that." The sixth stared into Zach's eyes for the first time and said, "If you kill him, his clan will hunt you and your loved ones down. They are in contact with the real world too."

After a while, Zach threw the man's body into the chandelier, and he was stabbed to death by thousands of needles of the chandelier.

"Oops." Zach shrugged his shoulders and said, "My hand slipped because of the dark."

The sixth's hands trembled after seeing that. He shook his head in disbelief and muttered, "May the sea god save us from what's coming." 

Zach turned around and glanced at everyone. The hall was silent, but the music was still playing, making Zach look like a performer who was about to perform a trick because everyone's attention was focused on him.

"My hands are very slippery, so it may slip again. If you don't want that, then keep your distance from me," he asserted in a solemn voice.

CLAP! CLAP!

Someone clapped from the other side of the hall, and everyone's gaze turned to the sound.

A young man walked out of the crowd and stood in front of Zach with several other men behind him.

Zach and the man stared into each other for a while until Aquitius the sixth quipped in.

"I will take responsibility for Zach's action," he said.

"Oh, there is no need to, my king," the man said in a humble manner. He then pointed his finger at the dead body hanging on the chandelier and said, "My name is Maxim, and that thing over there is my little brother."

Zach raised his brows and uttered, "So you are here for revenge?"

"No, no. What you did was reasonable. If someone tried to take advantage of the dance and touch my wife indecently or insult her, I would give them a more cruel death than this," Maxim said with a smile on his face.

"So why are you here?"

"The thing is…" the smile on Maxim's face vanished, and his face slowly frowned as he said, "You touched my wife too."

"...for a dance?"

Maxim shrugged his shoulders and said, "You should know better."

Zach noticed a stain on Maxim's shoulder.

'Where have I seen this stain before….?'

"Oh…" Maxim was none other than the person who had bumped into Zach when he was looking for a partner to dance with.

'His wife was most probably Ruli, the queen's twin sister,' Zach uttered inwardly. 

'I do see how that dead fish was an important person. Suppose the queen is from a royal or noble family. In that case, that means her sister would also be married into a noble family. So I just killed a rare species of fish.'

Zach furrowed his brows and uttered, "What are you implying?"

"My wife told me you touched her too," Maxim responded in a haughty tone. His characteristics and personality suddenly changed from understanding to arrogant.

Of course, Zach was more than certain that he didn't touch Ruli with impure thoughts. He didn't even need to ask Ruli to confirm because when Zach glanced at Ruli, who was standing behind Aurora, she had a shocked expression on her face.

'So this is what they call framing, huh? I don't know how other people deal with it, but I sure know how to handle this situation.'

Zach cracked his fingers using his thumb and asserted, "It's cooking time."
