Just like that, the day of Shien and Rosie's engagement finally arrived.
On this day, there was no one in the capital for business, nor was there anyone working. Instead, there were many entertainment activities and celebratory parties.
The Royal Knights took the lead and started a parade in the Royal City.
It was unknown where the celebratory music came from, but it resounded through the streets and alleys.
Every household hung up their curtains and lit up their magic lamps that were different from usual. It was as if they were celebrating the New Year, full of laughter and cheers.
Under the deliberate promotion of the palace, the entire Royal City was the first to sound the horn for this engagement banquet that was worthy of being recorded in the history books.
Of course, it was the same in the other cities.
Even though some people were still unwilling to celebrate Rosie's engagement with someone else, the royal family had decreed that the whole country should celebrate together. No matter how unwilling they were, they still had to put on a show.
Therefore, the whole kingdom really entered into an atmosphere of national celebration.
Even the adventurers would not work on this day. Other than some of them who received a special commission to contribute to the national celebration of the engagement banquet, the rest of the adventurers were in the Adventurers Guild eating meat and drinking wine.
However, their topics were all very interesting.
"Her Highness is married. My youth is also over."
"Don't say that. It's just an engagement. They're not really married yet."
"Even if it's just an engagement, it's still very enviable."
"Yeah."
Similar discussions kept popping up in the Adventurer's Guild.
At the same time, in the Adventurers Guild in Lamegion, a large group of adventurers were also sighing.
"I didn't expect that the little brat who was only level 10 and looked down upon by everyone would not only become an Earl, but he's also engaged to Her Highness Rosie."
"A few months ago, that guy was just like us, an adventurer."
"We're all adventurers. Why is there such a huge gap between us?"
"God is really blind."
"That's right."
"I don't know how a devil like him could be so lucky."
"If I had known earlier, I would have accepted the commission to go to the Royal City."
"If I had gone back then, I might have been the one to get engaged to Her Highness."
"Yeah, I could have done it too."
The group of adventurers were sour, as if they had just eaten dozens of tons of lemons.
Leon was among the crowd.
His teammates had changed.
Margret had been killed by Beethoven, and Eudillis was not around.
However, Leon still relied on his own means to recruit two very high-level adventurers.
Both of them were female adventurers above level 40, which was considered very high among the Lamigions.
It was a pity that not every high-ranked female adventurer could have outstanding looks.
The two female adventurers that Leon brought with him were like this. One was indescribably beautiful, and the other was as strong as a man.
The two of them even stuck to Leon's side intimately, ignoring the disdain and disgust of the people around them as they fed Leon in a coquettish voice.
"Come and try this, Lord Leon."
"Lord Leon is also very fortunate. With us sisters spoiling you, you don't lose to Sean at all, right?"
"Come, let's show others how happy we are, Lord Leon."
"Come, let others see how happy we are, Lord Leon ~ Ang ~ Ren ~"
The two adventurers smiled sweetly, but their looks and bodies made Leon's smile look extremely forced.
Looking at the two extremely unique teammates in his arms and recalling Rosie's beauty in the Royal City, Leon's heart was filled with envy and jealousy.
"I've also gone to the Royal City. Why didn't such a good thing come to me?"
For Leon, who had always wanted to become a noble, everything about Shien was something that he envied and envied.
They had gone to the Royal City together. Now, not only was Shien engaged to the most beautiful woman of the human race and the most precious treasure of the Kingdom, he had also become a noble. Not just any noble, but a Viscount. Now, he was about to become a Count, a true superior noble. With the support of the Protoss and the Demons, one could imagine his future achievements and status.
This was hard for Leon to accept.
It was not that Leon did not know his place, but a few months ago, when they went to the Royal City together, they were of equal status. Now, the gap between them had become so huge that it was unbearable.
In particular, the experiences of the two sides could be said to be as different as heaven and earth.
Shien became a noble in the Royal City, while Leon was humiliated in the Royal City and had to go back to the countryside to continue living.
Shien was favored by Her Royal Highness in the Royal City, while Leon was looked down upon by his female companion in the Royal City, causing his status to plummet.
Eudilis, who used to view all the beautiful women who approached Leon as her enemy, went to the capital and saw more outstanding men. After returning to Lamegion, she completely despised Leon.
The reason why Eudilis was not here now was because she had dumped him and followed her family's caravan to the Royal City.
It was said that Eudilis was ready to inherit her family's magical equipment business and train and work in the branch in the Royal City.
Her goal was simple. She wanted to marry into a rich family and become the wife of a noble, or the concubine of a great noble, so that she could enjoy a luxurious life in the future.
Leon wanted to cry.
He really wanted to cry.
"Lord Leon ~"
"Lord Leon ~"
Beside him, his two teammates who were as rough as men called out to him in a sweet voice.
The forced smile on Leon's face turned uglier than if he were to cry.
It was not long before Lyon married the sisters, and began to live as a cook in the house.
Now, Leon was still fantasizing about it.
"One day, I'll be like that Shien, a man that everyone envies …!"
For this, Leon swallowed all the bitterness and grievances in his stomach. He opened his mouth and bit the food that his two teammates brought to his mouth.
That scene was tragic no matter how one looked at it.
At the same time, Lily wasn't in the guild. Instead, she was in a simple and crude house, accompanying seven adorable girls.
The seven little girls all had dog ears and tails. They were not even ten years old, but they all looked a little like Lumia. They lined up in a row in front of Lily.
"Looks like everyone is ready." Lily nodded in satisfaction and smiled. "In a few days, I'll bring all of you to the Royal City. What do you say?"
Hearing this, the eyes of the little girls lit up.
One of the girls immediately raised her hand.
"Big Sister Lily, is our big sister in King's City?"
The rest of the girls were just like her, looking timidly at Lily with shining eyes.
"Yes." Lily naturally wouldn't lie to these girls. She said intimately, "Your sister is in the Royal City, waiting for you."
His words were met with another round of questions from the little girls who could not wait any longer.
"We'll be living in the Royal City from now on, right?"
"I heard there's a big house for us to live in!"
"It's the house of Sister's teammates!"
"No, it's the house of Sister's man!"
"I heard it's the house of Her Highness the Princess!"
"I'm looking forward to it!"
Just like that, the little girls began to chatter, appearing particularly lively and lively.
Lily was especially stunned when she heard the words "Sister's man".
"Where did you hear that from?"
Lily asked hurriedly.
Regarding this, the little girls answered without any hesitation.
"It's the grandma next door who told me!"
"We showed the letter that Sister sent us to the granny!"
"Because we couldn't understand it!"
"The granny said that Sister said in the letter that she's living in a very impressive man's house!"
"Granny also said that a cute girl like Sister will be eaten alive if she stays in a man's house!"
"So that means that he's Sister's man!"
"I just don't know what he means by eaten alive!"
The little girl started chattering again, causing Lily to feel a headache.
"Oh no, this is a big misunderstanding …"
Lily sighed at the thought.
"Forget it, I'll let Lumia worry about it."
Who told the girls to suddenly say that they weren't going back to Ramjion and would be staying in the Royal City?
When Lily had first received the news, she had jumped in fright.
Especially when she thought about how special Vivian and Tierre were, she knew that they wouldn't want to stay in the Royal City forever.
Who would have thought that this time, they would all make the decision to stay there.
"Who is it all because of?"
As she muttered to herself, Lily thought of that inconceivable man.
"I really didn't expect him to become the fiancé of the princess in just a few short months. He's so perfect that I can't even be jealous of him."
But on second thought, given his identity, he was more than enough to be a match for Rosie.
"I just don't know if Vivian and the others are also …"
Otherwise, why would they want to stay in the Royal City?
"Really …"
Lily couldn't help but laugh.
Outside, the celebratory atmosphere was still ongoing.
Shien and Rosie's engagement banquet was about to begin.
…
Royal City, Lakeshore Island Temple.
In the deepest part of the divine hall, in the inner hall where no one could see, a shining door suddenly appeared and opened, allowing a figure to slowly walk out from within.
It was the Goddess.
Her skin was as white as snow, her hair long like a waterfall, her figure graceful, tall, and beautiful. She had long white hair and blue eyes, and she wore a white robe.
"It's been a long time since I've been to the human world."
The beautiful goddess sighed with emotion, as if she was reminiscing the past, as if she was reminiscing about something.
But after a while, all that was left on the Goddess' face was indignant.
"I'd like to see who's trying to kidnap my lovely well-wishers."
"You're Shien Borztut, right?"
"Wait for me."
Brimming with anger and enmity, the most powerful Goddess in existence strode out of the Temple of Light.
