Silence ensued.
The five nobles looked shocked before one of them shouted, ''L-Liar!''
''No, he is not.'' Suddenly, a voice came behind him, which belonged to the Emperor!
The five nobles paled and quickly bowed towards the Emperor.
Lock Stronglord smiled and looked at the white-haired youth, ''Welcome, Wraith.''
Everyone's jaws dropped after hearing Emperor greeting the white-haired youth, who claimed to be a Legacy Carrier!
A dozen meters away from the throne, the Crown Prince and Princess of Stronglord Empire were discussing with other nobles only a second away, but then they heard the commotion and saw their father greeting another one!
Not long ago, their Royal Father greeted a beautiful woman, who was beautiful enough to take Crown Prince's breath away.
Now, another Legacy Carrier appeared, but this time, it was a Mythical Legacy Carrier, which made them wonder why he was being greeted as well.
Greeting Godly Legacy Carrier was obvious, but Mythical Legacy usually doesn't have as much influence.
They know that their Royal Father was a smart and sharp-sighted man. If he saw something in the white-haired youth, it must be something spectacular.
With curiosity, they kept looking at Isaac, trying to find out the reason why he was greeted as well.
The five nobles looked fearful and saw their fathers and family members pointing at them to fix the situation.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt''Greeting, your Majesty.'' Isaac bowed respectfully.
Lock Stronglord smiled and didn't say anything else.
Zoe and Amy, that were seated at a table that was only a few tables away from the table where Crown Prince and Princess were, were utterly shocked.
''Did he just say White Death?'' Zoe whispered to her childhood friend.
Amy nodded with excitement, ''He did!''
Isaac walked past the five nobles and sat down on the chair next to Luna, and put the plate down on the table.
''Hello.'' He said to Luna with a smile.
He didn't receive a hello in return. Instead, Luna suddenly hugged him and whispered, ''Thank you…''
Isaac smiled and patted her head.
They soon separated, with Isaac looking as calm as before, but Luna had a slight hue of pink in her cheeks.
''Hello, my name is Lucky.'' One of the five nobles tried to fix the strained relationship between Isaac and Luna.
He smiled, trying to look as gentlemanly as possible, but that look made Luna timid, afraid that they would try to force her to do something she didn't want to.
Isaac didn't fall for the act and asked, ''Can you leave?''
The five nobles had zero intention of leaving and were desperate to fix the relationship.
Their families might stop funding their endeavors, which would be a huge setback for young men who like partying and buying expensive things.
''Can we be friends?'' Another noble asked, ''I know a place that sells the most delicious booze— we could go for a drink or two?''
''No.'' Isaac replied and turned back to Luna, ''Night, why were you here again?''
He used her in-game name so that the nobles won't find out her real name.
Luna giggled and said, ''Hehe, Goddess Hecate told me to go to the party. Apparently, I can make friends and get used to the people…''
Her face turned sad as she continued, ''I bought this dress because I thought it looked nice… But then I got suddenly greeted by Emperor, and then that scene happened…''
The five nobles tried to act innocent, but sweatdrops started forming on their foreheads.
''Haaahhh…'' A puff of cold air left Isaac's lungs while his lips had a hue of blue, ''Leave.'' He glared at the nobles and didn't like their company one bit.
The five nobles looked unwilling, but then a voice came behind them.
''Leave our guests alone.'' Lock Stronglord said with his powerful voice that caused an invisible pressure to appear all around the throne room.
Tables trembled, nobles stumbled, and the floor started shaking, but most of the pressure was aimed at the five nobles, who couldn't keep standing and fell down on their buttocks.
Their family members paled and wanted to shout at them to leave right this instant.
Their foolish younger generation made Emperor angry, and that was one way to ruin their future once and for all.
The five nobles quickly bowed and had to crawl away to leave the area where the pressure was aimed at.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOnce they left the area, they finally stood up and left the throne room with a tail between their legs.
Lock Stronglord turned his head towards the nobles and smiled, ''Alright, now that the event is over…''
*Clap* *Clap*
He clapped his hands several times and said, ''Continue the party.''
The older nobles understood the signal and continued their discussions with their friends.
After seeing their fathers, mothers, and everyone else continuing their party, the younger generation also started talking with other nobles.
But, some of the younger generation's discussions were about the scene they had just witnessed.
Most of them looked at the table, where two attractive individuals were discussing, and even though they looked unimpressive, their identities are what made them special.
A nearby table with young women stopped discussing for several minutes, but once the party continued, they once again continued insulting Luna after seeing how she acted around Isaac.
They thought it was a mere act and believed that Luna was basically throwing herself at him.
But, this time, Luna didn't hear because she was talking with Isaac and only managed to listen to his words while everything else went past her ears.
In a sky above the Royal Palace.
A dark-haired beauty was sitting on top of a soft cloud while her smoky dress made her body look transparent and mesmerizing to look at.
From one of the Royal Palace's windows, she managed to see Luna and the person she was talking with.
''Hehe, I said you will enjoy the party.'' Hecate innocently giggled and raised her head to look at the moon, ''Today will be the last day of your ordinary life… Enjoy your life from now on… Tomorrow, everything changes.''
She smiled and murmured, ''Time… Has come.''
''For the world to change.''
