Hearing a straight question from Aizen made Thomas Stanford, the host of the banquet party this ti feel awkward and ashad because the honored guest himself was already present and waiting with them in the central room.
Thomas is a black man with a large muscular body and is one of the great heroes who are still alive on Mars. He is currently sitting in a wheelchair that floating slightly from the floor due to energy assistance.
"Mr. Aizen... You are already present here." Thomas imdiately returned to his normal self and approaching Aizen's group.
"Hum, I have agreed to co."
"Then let us begin the banquet. I am Thomas Stanford as the host of this banquet welcoming all the nobles who have been present, and this is Mr. Aizen as the honored guest at the banquet this ti..." Thomas continued his long speech, but the nobles present were surprised to hear his words.
The banquet party was delayed only because the man had turned out to be present with them, and the aning of the honored guest said by Thomas ant only one thing. Mr. Aizen is a person who has a very high status and can even make them all wait for his presence.
The pair of siblings is more shocked than others, Aizen who ca here with them turned out to have a status far higher than they thought. The two of them soon recovered and very excited, the other nobles also imdiately recovered from their surprise after Thomas finished his long speech and invited the nobles present to enjoy the banquet.
At present all City Lord family heads are seated at the sa table with Aizen, Ana, and Axel at the luxurious round table with eight chairs surrounding it.
"Nice to et you, Mr. Aizen. Once again introduce myself, I'm Thomas Stanford, head of the Stanford family." Thomas who sat facing Aizen greeted him again.
"You are so polite, Mr. Thomas." Aizen greets back and is welcod by the five other family heads who sit with him.
Evelyn Azazel, Thomas Stanford, Lania Avery, Henry Elyson, Samuel Zirion, and Robert Lynn are the nas of the family heads who sat with Aizen and his two girls, while other family mbers who also ca with them only stood behind each of their family heads.
Every noble present ca with their main family mbers to expand their connections between the upper-class nobles at this banquet party, but strangely they did not exchange greetings between each other as usual instead they sat and stood near them within a certain distance.
After Aizen reintroduced himself, the family heads frowned because Aizen had not yet introduced his two girls who were just watching silently while sitting with them.
"I didn't know that I was your honored guest, Mr. Thomas."
"??? You're kidding, Mr. Aizen. Didn't you have an invitation listed as an honored guest?" Thomas looked confused hearing that.
"Hm... So, the honorable person you an is ... You didn't explain it correctly, Mr. Thomas." Aizen with an innocent face answered casually.
What Aizen said was true, the invitation Aizen received did not explain him as an honored guest but only explained an honored guest. So, it's only natural if Aizen thinks they are still waiting for the honored guest.
Thomas realized this small mistake look like to occur due to his age that is no longer young. "W... Well... It seems this is indeed a mistake from , I apologize for that."
"No need to worry. So, what is the schedule for the banquet party this ti? I actually ca to join in the fun."
"The banquet party this ti took place like a banquet party in general. After the welcoming speech, continued with the audience who exchanged words and entertained with dishes that have been provided. Then at the end of the event, there is a dance party before the closing ceremony." Thomas felt strange but still answered the question.
"Then why do all the audiences actually surround us?"
"What can I do, you are the honored guest at this banquet and a person with the [SS Rating] noble status."
Hearing this the other nobles were once again surprised. Because since four years ago in the battle in Azazel City that killed nine [SS Rating] Generals, and on Mars no longer appeared the person who reached that level. The entire City Lord family from all cities at this ti was limited to a family with [SS Rating] status without anyone in that power.
If a new aristocrat gets an [SS Rating] status, it only implies he has the sa level of strength and enough influence to get it.
Ronald and Selena were very happy because of that. They introduced that they ca with Aizen's group and had a good relationship with him which really benefited their family afterward because they were still the new upper-class aristocrats.
Unlike the pair of siblings, Ana and Axel actually have cold eyes realizing where this is going.
'Master Aizen, they are just trying to curry favor...'
'Well... Since they are so polite let's just entertain them. Look, Ana doesn't mind... Um? It seems that Ana is also not satisfied with them.'
'Of course, they are annoying. Hmph!' Ana snorted as if she was sulking because at first, she thought they would co to a nice banquet.
'Hum... Then let take care of the rest. Ok?'
'En.'
They spoke in their minds ignoring the chatter of other nobles for a mont.
"So, Mr. Aizen. May I ask one thing?" Henry Elyson returned to their topic of conversation.
"Sure."
"Are you Aizen Maxwell, creator of [Axel Goddess] on Earth more than a thousand years ago?" That question made the other nobles fall silent imdiately.
"What makes you think that?"
"Sorry for my impudence, even though everything about you is no longer available in the [Axtia Goddess] System, but information about you is listed in archives handed down as inheritance from my family and can only be accessed by the head of our family." Henry suddenly becos serious.
'Anyway, aren't all these events just to gang up on us?' Aizen said mischievously in his mind.
'...' Axel and Ana who had agreed to let him handle the rest seed to agree and just waited for this event to continue. Hoping that this party will end soon because it has beco boring
"It seems you are so sure, have you ever been to Earth before?" Lania Avery who did not know that asked with a confused face.
"No, it's not . But my first ancestor who still has data about important things from planet Earth archived it and stored it as a scientific knowledge that was handed down from generation to generation. Incidentally, when I searched for Mr. Aizen, I found that information."
Henry Elyson, Samuel Zirion, and Robert Lynn who have good relations have discussed this before. If the information from Henry is true then they will go all out trying to curry favor to Aizen, and if it is wrong then they will just try to have a good relationship with him.
Their experience so far is not re nonsense, if Aizen who has [SS Rating] strength has bad intentions towards them, then they will use all their strength to get rid of Aizen no matter what thod they will use. The current situation is their best choice where Aizen is surrounded by many [S Rating] Generals and other combat forces in the main mansion of the Stanford family who have a top-level defense system to determine their next steps.
Evelyn Azazel, Thomas Stanford, and Lania Avery were shocked by this fact, they had not been told that at all. Although they are also wary of the possibility of Aizen who they consider having great power has a bad aim, but not like this.
Henry Elyson, Samuel Zirion, and Robert Lynn seem to have another goal that if a battle ensued it shouldn't harm their city, and dealing with people with the power of [SS Rating] was not impossible for them with the current lineup and the people present.
"That's surprising, my na is still rembered even after more than a thousand years have passed. Even the Earth that I know is no longer recognizable. So, what is the purpose of you inviting here? Want to make obey your wishes?" Aizen acknowledged it without any twists and turns, but his eyes beca very cold. Aizen, Ana, and Axel begin to prepare if things go awry.
