Emperor's Reckoning

Looking at Princess Aelina having a curiosity of a cat, Biane and Clemora couldn't say anything.

"So, when can I meet him? Ohhh this is so exciting, we should arrange this at once!" said Princess Aelina while tapping her index finger on the bottom of her cupid lip.

If the onlookers were to hear what she just said, the royalty would be in a disarray. Their number one beauty was actually excited to see a man, Luderia might be set ablaze by jealousy.

Biane suddenly chuckled at her request before she said, "You don't need to meet him, he will meet you instead."

Clemora couldn't help but nod in agreement.

"Really? You mean he is coming to the banquet? Is he the son of a noble from a different kingdom? Because there is no way that he came from Luderia, otherwise people would already recognize him," asked Princess Aelina.

Clemora contemplated for a while before replying, "No, he is not the son of a noble or anything as far as I know."

"Oh, is he a prince, or even a ruler?! Wait, no, if that was the case, I would know him. Does he come from the otherworld?" asked Princess Aelina.

"Hmm, I guess technically you could say that," answered Clemora as she too was not sure.

"Hmm? Technically? What do you mean?" Princess Aelina curiosity had become deeper than the initial.

"It's hard to explain, why not Princess Aelina do the investigation herself? I mean, Princess Aelina has so much more resource than us," said Clemora with a smirk.

"Petty!" Princess Aelina stuck out her tongue.

However, her expression soon gone back to normal, "But how will he get in? The invitation was only for you two.". This place was heavily guarded and strict to regulation, not even a duke could do anything he wanted.

Biane said with a chuckle, "Don't worry, knowing him he will find a way,"

The princess furrowed her eyebrows as she looked at Biane. She soon found amusement in Biane's word. (Hmm! I can't wait to see how he will enter this banquet!).

The north door opened once again as the attention fell to a chubby figure.

He had brown hair that was slicked back combined with the royal robe of vibrant colors. His sharp eyes scanned the room as he walked toward the crowd. Despite his looks, the bearing he made was without a doubt belonging to the royal family.

"How is everyone doing? I hope you guys enjoy the meal," said the chubby figure with a smile.

"Ah Prince Frey, thank you for your hospitality, the atmosphere is neat and great, I can enjoy the gourmets and further my business relationship," a youth raised a glass of wine.

Prince Weiss took a nearby glass filled with red wine as he raised the glass, "The hospitality does not come just from me alone. My older brother and Sisters were involved in this too."

"Yes, of course, Prince Frey," toasted the youth.

It was evident from the words that the youth chose, in whose banner he was under.

"Prince Frey is the second prince. Though he does not have the talent in cultivation like the first prince, his ability in other fields such as pill-making was quite good," said someone in a group.

"Yes, I agree, they say that if Prince Frey is keeping up with his training, he would enter the top ten pill-making in Deo," replied another.

The advantage of a good pill-maker was that they could summon strong cultivators to do his bidding. People would want to curry favor pill-makers, especially the one that was still young and have a bright talent. If Prince Frey were to be the ruler, he could establish a relationship with other kingdoms easily.

Prince Frey averted his gaze toward the balcony where he could see her sister with her two beautiful friends. With a smile, he started to walk toward them.

The three ladies naturally noticed that he was approaching, but a figure suddenly came out from the north door once again. Clemora and Biane furrowed their eyebrows as they looked.

Unlike Prince Frey, the figure was a well-built man with handsome features.

He had an undercut style hair with an earring on his right ear. Wearing a V-neck black robe adorned with a golden lightning pattern, most women in the room couldn't help but blush. The man smiled as he walked inside with confident.

With every step he took, there was an undeniable bearing of a ruler. One would instinctively follow him if their soul was weak. The onlookers watched him as he picked up a glass of red wine and prepared a toast.

He glanced at the crowd with a smile that could rip a maiden's heart, "Looks like everyone is here, let me do the honor for-"

His voice stuck in his throat as his gaze landed on the balcony. (Impossible!) thought Prince Weiss as he identified the two women beside her sister.

Biane and Clemora stared at him with eyes full of killing intent. The vengeance that built up inside them was ready to burst out at any time. However, they know that they couldn't just jump at him.

"Prince Weiss, what's wrong?" asked a woman coquettishly.

Her question send a ringing bell inside Prince Wiess's head as he said, "Ah yes, I'm sorry everyone I just remembered that sadly, Princess Chloe won't be joining us today. So with this toast, I signaled the start of the banquet!"

The sound of thunderous applause filled the room as the banquet finally started.

Prince Weiss was instantly busy with guests that rushed to get to know him. Meanwhile, Clemora and Biane slowly retracted their killing intent.

Princess Aelina noticed the change but she kept it inside her thought in the meantime, as Prince Frey was approaching them.

"Good evening older sister, I-"

Prince Frey's greeting was cut by Princess Aelina, "Where is Chloe? Do you know anything?"

Though he was slightly annoyed, he was used to this sister of his. With determining eyes he answered, "I heard she is missing..... again."
