Son of Chaos 80 Marriage

"Um, how about I just don't sign it?", Ivan asked tentatively. At the same time these words left his mouth he could see his mentor throwing him a look full of pity. And indeed Jenny, who had just got her breath back, once again started to yell, but this time he was the target.

"What? So you think my niece isn't good enough for you?"

When he heard this question, Ivan wanted to cry. First she was angry at Lin because she signed the marriage contract, and know that he had proposed an easy solution, she was angry at him.

Without a way to stop her, they could only wait for her to calm down.

"So what are the two going to do about this?", she waved the document through the air.

Ivan didn't dare to say anything, since his last proposal had lead to him being yelled at for at least five minutes.

Lin looked at him and then said, "Sorry Ivan, but you will have to sign this. If not I will try anything in my power to do it, even if I have to use force."

Everyone looked at her in surprise. They had thought that even though the prophecy had forced her to put this into the chest, she didn't really care about it. Maybe she would have even preferred for him not to sign.

"Why are you insisting on him signing it?", for the first time Miranda mixed into the conversation.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her questioning, Lin took a deep breath before explaining. "It wasn't just that I had to insert the contract into the gift. I too have to make sure that he signs it. And that at any cost."

"But why? Is it really only because of the family rules?"

"No it isn't. Each prophecy made by the main family has three parts. The first one is a certain event that will happen, in this case me being forced to use my pet during the tournament. Then there is a part, that describes the actions one should use to get the good outcome. Which would be the gift and the marriage. The last part are two outcomes, one which will occur if the second part is fulfilled and another which will occur if not." She then paused for a bit. "I can't tell you everything about the last part, but both outcomes have something to do with my family. Besides that there is also something concerning only me, which I can tell you about.

It isn't anything specific but if I don't get married then I would at most live until I'm fifty. Which is also the reason that my grandpa agreed."

When they heard the last part everyone sucked in a deep breath, except Ivan, who didn't really understand the significance of it.

"Really? It said that you won't live longer than fifty if you don't marry Ivan?", Jenny asked in a concerned voice.

"Yes. Of course it isn't sure, how long I could live if we marry, but it should be the same as everyone else.", which depended on ones strength as well as luck.

"Then how is the success rate of these prophecies?"

"According to the family records, they were never wrong. And there are more than two hundred recorded cases."

"Ivan. Sign it.", Jenny forcefully put the contract before him and then starred at him, daring him to refuse.

*Damn, don't I get any choice in this? I already got ice cold wife. Do I really need another one? ... Even though she looks just as beautiful. *, Ivan whined in his heart, but didn't dare show it on the outside. He could only pick up the pen and sign at the intended location.
