**A Royal Request**
Part 2
Hange's eyes sparkled with excitement as they addressed the King. "Excuse me, Your Majesty, but may I ask a question?" The King's expression turned curious, and he nodded for Hange to continue. The room fell silent, awaiting Hange's inquiry. "May I, please, please, please have the owner of seeing your daughter, I truly admire her," Hange asked, their voice trembling with anticipation. The King's eyebrows shot up, and a warm smile spread across his face. "Of course, Hange," the King replied, his voice filled with amusement. "I'll have her brought in immediately." With a wave of his hand, a guard stepped forward and exited the room, returning moments later with a stunning young woman in tow. Her raven-black hair cascaded down her back, and her bright hazel eyes sparkled as she entered the room. She was dressed in a simple yet elegant outfit, her features accentuated by her poised demeanor. As she walked in, Levi's eyes widened, and his heart skipped a beat. He couldn't help but notice the striking beauty of the young woman. She was even more lovely than he had imagined, and he found himself captivated by her presence. The young woman, Kenzy, flashed a bright smile as she entered the room. She was Egyptian, with a rich, dark complexion and striking features that seemed to radiate warmth. Her eyes sparkled as she greeted the King and the officials in the room. "Ah, Kenzy, dear, I'm so glad you could join us," the King said, rising from his throne to greet her. "You look lovely, as always." Kenzy's cheeks flushed slightly as she curtsied, her eyes scanning the room. They landed on Hange, who was practically bouncing with excitement, and then on Levi, whose gaze was fixed intently on her. "Kenzy, this is Hange Zoë, a member of our Scout Regiment," the King explained, as if introducing her to the room for the first time. "And this is Levi Ackerman, Captain of the Special Operations Squad, and Erwin Smith, Commander of the Scout Regiment." Hange's eyes lit up, and they waved enthusiastically at Kenzy, who smiled warmly in response. Levi's eyes never left hers, his expression unreadable, but his gaze lingered. Erwin, seated beside Levi, cleared his throat, his eyes wide with admiration. "It's an honor to meet you, Kenzy," he said, his voice low and respectful. The room seemed to hold its breath as Kenzy took her place beside Hange, who was beaming with excitement. Dot Pixis, seated nearby, whispered to one of the guards, "Who is this young woman?" The guard leaned over to whisper back, "That's Kenzy, the adopted daughter of the King. She's 19, and a skilled fighter." As the King continued to speak, Levi found himself entranced by Kenzy's presence. He couldn't help but notice the way her eyes sparkled when she smiled or the way her dark hair framed her face. He was drawn to her in a way he couldn't quite explain. Kenzy, for her part, seemed oblivious to the effect she had on the room. She chatted easily with the King and the officials, her laughter infectious and warm. Levi found himself smiling, a rare occurrence, as he watched her interact with the others. The King cleared his throat, drawing everyone's attention back to him. "As I was saying, I believe it's time we discussed our new strategy. With the increased activity of the Titans, I fear we must adapt and evolve if we're to survive." Kenzy's eyes locked onto Levi's, and for a moment, they simply stared at each other. He felt a jolt of electricity run through his body, and his heart skipped a beat. Who was this young woman, and why did she seem to captivate him so? As the meeting progressed, Levi found himself stealing glances at Kenzy, his mind racing with questions about her and her place in the kingdom. He had a feeling that his life was about to take a dramatic turn, and Kenzy was at the center of it all.
