Chapter 302 The Gathering
The Next Day...
The King\'s pristine white robes were a symbol of his authority and majesty, and they gave the palace\'s great hall an air of reality.
Aquarian, who was standing next to him, was dressed in a noble outfit with bright shades of blue. Ashlyn, on the other hand, chose a more simple outfit. She wore a crisp white shirt that stuck to her thin frame, sleek black pants, and sturdy boots.
In their resplendent noble attire, Aizel and Zareena stood poised and dignified, their garments a testament to their esteemed status.
Aizel wore a custom-made dark-black suit with detailed embroidery that showed off his taste.
Zareena, on the other hand, exuded elegance in her white, flowing gown with delicate embellishments, exuding grace and sophistication befitting her noble lineage.
A grand gathering was organized, resembling a regal assembly of kings and queens from all the kingdoms.
Initially, Zareena had been the sole representative accompanying them, but the king made a decision to extend the invitation to Aizel as well.
"Dadar, we are ready," Aquarian said.
Dadar nodded and tapped his staff on the ground. Once again the magic circle appeared beneath their feet teleporting them to another place.
Aizel suddenly finds himself in another castle, where the air was thick with a palpable tension.
As he surveyed the surroundings, he realized that all eyes were fixated on them.
The regal figures of power and authority from various realms stood before them, casting their penetrating gazes upon Aizel and the rest of them.
The King of the Zulivan Kingdom stood at the front with his formidable mages.
Alongside him, the majestic Elf King, the enigmatic Dark Elf Queen, and the dignified Whiskerkin Queen were accompanied by their respective entourages.
Finally, the presence of the resolute Theodora Queen and her eldest daughter completed the assembly.
"Listen, don\'t speak anything. I will handle it," Zareena whispered and Aizel nodded.
His gaze went towards Rayla who was standing beside the Whiskerkin Queen.
But then he noticed the Whiskerkin Queen was staring at him with a little weird expression on her face.
Did she know something about me?"
[It\'s possible, Rayla knows something about you so maybe she knows as well. But Master, I think that\'s fear on her face]
"Rayla, he is here... he is the same person.. what should I do now?" The Whiskerkin Queen sent a mental message to Rayla.
"Don\'t worry, just don\'t let anyone notice it. My lord won\'t do anything here and besides I am here," Rayla replied.
"You are late... AGAIN," The Zulivan Kingdom King said, eyeing the king of Felgura.
With regal grace, the king led the way, Aquarian, Ashlyn, Zareena, and Aizel followed closely behind him.
"Good to see you again, Zester," The King of Felgura said with a smile.
"You only know how to be a smooth talker," Zester replied.
The Elf King, Dark Elf Queen, and Whiskerking Queen came forwards and then greeted them.
"It\'s a pleasure to meet you again, Lacaris," The Elf king said.
"I have been honored, by the way, when the two of you are getting married?" Lacaris asked.
"He won\'t be able to marry me even in his dream," The Drak Elf Queen replied with a snot.
Meanwhile, the Whiskerkin queen was staring at Aizel when suddenly Aizel gave a simple smile in response.
A chill ran down her spine, and beads of sweat started to appear on her forehead.
He knows me, he definitely knows everything. He is just playing around here," She thought, gulping in fear.
"Lacaris it\'s rude to greet me at last," The Queen of Theodora came forward.
Suddenly Lacaris\'s demeanor change along with Ashlyn and Zareena.
"Nice to see you, Rias,"
Suddenly the queen\'s gaze fell on Aizel.
"You brought a Grade II mage with you, but look at that face...
"Where have you been hiding till now?" She walked forward towards Aizel.
[Master, this bitch is dangerous]
"I have never seen anyone more beautiful than you. Why are following this idiot king who doesn\'t know anything?
"Join me, you can have everything you want,"
Why do I feel like I am a woman getting proposed by a man?"
"Ahem... I feel honored to hear that from the Queen itself, but I have no intention to change sides." Aizel replied.
"You got a great young mage Lacaris, I hope you can keep him safe," She said with a smile.
"Hahahah, don\'t worry about that. He is my little brother after all.
"His big brother is there with him," Aquarian said.
"Then I hope you all will be ready for tomorrow. It seems I already know what I need to get from you this time," With that said she turned and left with her daughter.
"You are in trouble," Zareena whispered.
"I am already aware of it," Aizel replied.
"Why did she even leave, we haven\'t started anything yet," The Elf King said.
"Well, I have arranged a feast for everyone. Let\'s eat something first and then talk," The King of Zulivan said.
The grand hall was adorned with a long table, elegantly set with a lavish spread of delectable dishes.
The kings and queens gracefully took their seats and engaged in lively conversations.
Aizel and Zareena found themselves seated alongside Ashlyn and Aquarian, forming a united front as representatives of their kingdom.
Look at them elves, they are real,"
[Master, do you think there might be more beautiful elves ladies? What about dark skin dark elf?]
Oye, don\'t talk about things like that now. I don\'t want to start having some weird thoughts,"
That King of Zulivan is just like a middle age man with black hair. I can\'t feel anything special about him. It seems he is quite powerful,"
[Master, that kitty is staring at you once again]
What does she even want? Do I need to speak with Rayla about this?"
[But won\'t they find it suspicious?]
"You want to talk about something?" Suddenly Rayla\'s voice resounded in his mind.
You, but how can you do this? And how did you know?" Aizel asked, trying to maintain a calm face.
"Didn\'t I tell you before, I can sense something, I just felt you need to talk to me and this is our innate ability of the Whiskerkins,"
Incredible...Yes about that, why does your Queen keep staring at me? Don\'t tell me she is also interested in me?"
"About that, don\'t worry for now. You should be more careful tomorrow and try to go all out. That bitch has her eyes on you,"
