After a day of country planning,
Alvine was now in his palace's eting room with the three queens, Lilliana, Sabrina, Assiaphir, Vandel, and Sylvia who were sitting on the eight golden thrones that surrounded Alvine in a bow; while he himself was sitting on a golden throne higher than theirs.
Behind him stood Ashia and Noddra, Nicco and Helene were behind Sabrina's throne; as for the three queens, they had their generous emperors behind them. But apart from Rossas who was behind Lilliana, Vandel Sylvia and Assiaphir did not have subordinates behind them.
Alvine's eyes switch between the three queens while they had curious eyes about his identity.
"Right." Alvine's voice thundered majestically in the eting room as he broke the nasty silence. "Before starting the eting, I know that many people have questions about my identity... but, even if I have changed a little, I am the sa Alvine Dragnar you had known. And as promised, we will end this strange war that lasted only too long."
He began the eting with this brief introduction. Even if the Alzania natives had incredulous eyes, they still didn't want to know more. This man nad Alvine was a mystery that went beyond their understanding from the beginning, they have long abandoned their curiosities about the misty mysteries that surround him.
Seeing their silences, he continued: "First, as there are unknown faces, I propose that everyone introduce themselves before entering the subject’s briefs; Sabrina."
-Getting up, and bowing to Alvine.
"I am Sabrina, Sabrina Alpha. My duties are very myriad for my master's. But I can still ntion a few, such as his maid, his instructor, his advisor, and also his wife. Apart from that, consider a high-ranking divine magus who has only one master." After saying these words, she sat down on her throne.
Even if Alvine had his placid expression, he could not hide his surprise when he heard Sabrina's titles. 'An instructor, a maid, a counselor...but why did she have to pronounce wife’s status that I had never assigned to her? Did Sylvia talk about my lies?' He said, looking at Lilliana to his left who looked dignified and noble.
Following her husband's gaze, she gets up and made the sa gestures as Sabrina.
"I am my darling’s wife, Lilliana Bloodclaw; this is the na chosen by my deceased parents. I am a vampire and high-ranking divine magus. But I haven't yet mastered my high-ranking divine powers, since I breakthrough less than a week ago." She says, showing her thick divine golden aura as if she wanted to intimidate others not to approach her darling.
A subtle smile curved Alvine's lips. 'As I suspect, She like made too much; in short, it's not to displease either.' he said to himself while keeping his imperturbable expression.
His maids weren’t surprised since they learned this detail from Helene.
"I am Vandel Sunshield, Lord Alvine’s advisor and also subordinate. Like our queen, I am also a vampire and an interdiate rank divine mage, thanks to Lady Sylvia's advice."
Following his brief presentation with his intrepid mood, ca Asiaphir's turn.
Like her predecessors, she bows respectfully to Alvine by placing her right hand on her chest. "I am Assiaphir Gleph'nir, goddess succubi, and also this planet’s regent that my king blessed with this title a day ago. As you can see, I am a high-rank divine succubus; my loyalty is only dedicated to my king and no one else." After that, she sat in her place.
After that, the eting room beco silent when they were the queens' turn. They had complex expressions that were a mixture of sha and inferiority. Everyone had legendary status except them.
Not to ntion being low-ranking divine mages, they have not even reached the divinity yet.
"Fufu~, Don't be shy, I would like to point out that there is a certain man with white hair who has the sa rank of culture as you." Sylvia's teasing voice resounded in the eting room as she looked at Alvine with a mocking smile on her lips.
'Sigh, I guess I expected more from her.' Alvine shook her head slightly with an internal sigh. 'She will never change, this girl; but strangely, she relaxed the atmosphere, it's already good.'
Lilias got up after her fairy wings’ beating. Throughout the eting room, she was the strangest, with her small size on the large throne that was more decorated than any other throne in their kingdoms.
"Nervous? I was just waiting for my turn. But since Lady Yury doesn't want to introduce herself yet, I have no choice but to introduce myself first!" She said, raising her little eyebrows.
"Mmh, that's the kind of spirit I love!" Sylvia nods her head while giggling at her natural cuteness.
"I am Lilias Fylfly, Alzania planet’s fairies’ queen. As you can see, I am an empress fairy who is at the top of her cultivation. I didn't have the opportunity to reach the divine level only because of our planet's weak rank, but it's only a matter of ti. A matter of ti before I beco the most powerful of all!" She said, proudly exposing her garnet red aura!
Hearing their queens’ words, these two little generals constantly nodded their heads with pride.
Yury imdiately regrets her decision after hearing this little fairy's humiliating words who knows everything but embarrassnt. "It's okay, we all heard, please, shut up now; lady Lilias!" She said while slapping slightly her face as she got up and bows to Alvine.
"I am Yury Miyako; but Yury is my last na. I am one of the human empresses on Alzania’s planet." She said, briefly.
'I have always found it strange that she presents herself with her last na like the Japanese, not to ntion that she looks strangely like a Japanese woman. But according to the information I got about her from Sabrina, I am sure that she doesn't co from the earth; it may be one of her great-grandparents who is a transmigrant...?' Despite his countless questions, he wasn't too interested in her.
Cheera, who wanted to introduce herself, was interrupted by Yury when he saw her wave her hand; saying that she hadn't finished.
"I take this opportunity to apologize to you, Lord Alvine, for my actions which were guided only by my greed for power. I have no excuse to justify my previous actions if you want to punish for that... I would be happy to suffer my punishnt. But please don't be too strict and punish my people or break our covenant because of my greedy actions."
Hearing these words, Alvine frowned. "If you had appeared before a month ago, I would have killed you and killed all those who will be linked to you. But at the mont, I cannot make this decision in the victim's place. You must apologize to Helene, she is the only one who decides your fate." Alvine, who had his head lazily supported by his hand whose elbow was placed on his throne’s armrest, spoke nonchalantly in a monotonous tone as he looked at Helene; who stood behind Sabrina.
Following Alvine's gaze, she beca confused to see the human girl behind Sabrina. 'Wasn't she a fairy? Or is it her human form? More notably, are the divine mages able to resurrect the dead?!' Even if she had all these questions, she wasted no ti.
But before she asked for forgiveness, Helene shook her head: "You don't need that. I had done nothing but my duty, as for your choices, instead of punishing you, I suggest you rather be less greedy in the future. Wanting to be powerful is a quest for a life that everyone is looking for, but if it's to trample weaker than ourselves... I think it's not worth it." She spoke these words calmly with a benevolent smile.
"...Thank you for your clency, Lady Helene."
'Sigh, as I thought, she's too innocent.' Alvine pronounced these words for himself.
"Ahem, I am Cheera Greenwood, Alzania planet’s elves’ queen. I am an elven empress." Seeing an odd atmosphere, Cheera scraped her throat before introducing herself briefly.
"Fufu~ it's my turn. I am the most powerful and majestic of all. My divine na and Sylvia White, I...
*Be reckless and you will have to deal with Lilliana. *
She suddenly stopped in her presentation after hearing Alvine's warning who smiled at her 'gently'.
*TSK!! *
"I am Sylvia White, a high-level divine mage. I am a 'human', also Master Alvine's maid and also... his wife." She murmured her last words with her embarrassed pink cheeks.
'Heh~, sooner or later you will be tad, little angel.' Alvine retorted these words as her smile beca cruel.
'His wife? What are these two tells now?' Sabrina had naturally heard her master's 'advice'. Even if she was sure it wasn't the truth, she couldn't help but frown slightly.
"..."
"Well, now that all the presentations are done, it's ti to start the eting;" Alvine spoke in a monotonous tone.
Imdiately, Sabrina raised her hand to ask for permission.
"Sigh, No need to ask permission, please. Anyway, what is it about, Sabrina?"
Sabrina: "Master, from their presentations, I can see that they still haven't understood their status." She replied, staring at the three queens.
"According to our forr agreent, we will intervene in this war only if you submit to my master. But in your words, none of you ntioned being my master’s subordinate; even if Yury referred to him as Lord, she didn't ntion her faithfulness." She continued to make this little reminder.
"Mistress has right, I rember that these were the conditions that my master had set. But you still haven't lent allegiance." Ashia supported Sabrina's recall.
"... That's not what you think, but it's just that..." Cheera's words got stuck in her throat when she couldn't find good words to give more explanations.
Sabrina: "Just what?"
"Ahem, I'll simplify what we think." Lilias scraped her throat when she saw their mistrust.
"Whether it is Lady Yury, Lady Cheera, or , we thought we were waiting to be divine mages to give him our oath of allegiance. Even if it is not our fault or yours, we still want to reach this level of power before swearing loyalty to it."
