Upon Lux's return to his Guild Headquarters, he imdiately inford Iris and Cai about what happened in the Kingdom of Gweliven.
His two fiances patiently listened to him until he finished explaining everything.
A few minutes later, Iris arrived at Lux's Guild Headquarters so that they could talk about it more in detail.
Since Cai was in the Floating Island right from the very beginning, she simply waited for Iris to co inside Lux's room.
After making sure that Lux didn't leave out any details about what had happened in the throne room, his two fiances talked to each other in private.
However, they made sure to get the Marriage Certificate and the Marriage Contract from the Half-Elf.
Of course, Lux didn't resist and handed it to them and watched the two ladies whom he loved very much leave the room so that they could discuss their verdict on Princess Anastasia's gutsy move.
Cai had been part of the Princess' kidnapping incident and had even been kidnapped herself in the process.
Even so, her understanding of the girl wasn't that much. Back then, she was yet to be Lux's fiance, and her experiences in the Kingdom of Gweliven were both exciting and frightening at the sa ti.
Because of this, she had no ti to get to know the kidnapped Princess and, at most, Cai could only treat her as an acquaintance.
Iris, who was perplexed and amused by the Princess' move, could tell that Anastasia was serious. At least, she was serious in her pursuit of Lux.
Soone who only had shallow feelings wouldn't go as far as she did, sealing the deal by securing a Marriage Certificate and a Marriage Contract.
Because of this, Iris and Cai decided to talk to Aina using the Guild Chat Function.
The Princess of the Xeno Kingdom was still managing her Guild as its Guildmaster while staying in Lux's Guild as a mber.
Aina's reasoning for joining Heaven's Gate was really simple.
The first was that she could communicate with Lux anyti and anywhere.
The second was that it allowed her to visit Lux's Guild Headquarters to et up with him.
The third was that if ever she wanted to et the Half-Elf while the latter was traveling, she could ask Lux to summon her to his side, allowing the two of them to spend so quality ti with each other.
Also, the passive Guild Buffs that she received from Heaven's Gate weren't sothing to sneeze at.
In fact, she was tempted to migrate her entire guild into Heaven's Gate, allowing her Guild mbers to benefit from being able to join the one-and-only Mythical Guild in the World of Solais and Elysium.
Lux told her that he didn't mind if Aina pushed through with this decision. In the end, he would simply let Aina retain control of her Guild mbers and let them operate like before.
Since Aina was his Fiancee, it really didn't matter if he took command of the Guild mbers of Eternal or not.
Aina could simply command them as one of Lux's Commanders, and everyone would fall in line without a problem.
In fact, Aina was just about to propose to her Guild mbers to migrate to Heaven's Gate when she received Iris' ssage, informing her of what had happened in the kingdom of Gweliven.
"She did what?" Aina asked in the sa monotonous voice that she always used when talking to soone.
She was still finding it hard to change her facial expressions, but her emotions could now be seen in her eyes, although they would only manifest themselves whenever she was with Lux.
"She used Lux's thumbprints to legalize her Marriage Certificate and Marriage Contract," Iris answered. "I just want to ask you what you know about the Princess of the Kingdom of Gweliven."
Aina was quite surprised that the Princess, whom she got along with, would resort to such tactics to make herself one of Lux's Fiancees.
But, after thinking about it, she thought that it was just a natural thing. In her eyes, Lux was a very handso and charismatic person. It was very normal for ladies to fall for him after interacting with him for a ti.
Of course, she wouldn't deny that she was truly in love with Lux, so her feelings were a bit biased.
"Princess Anastasia is soone who genuinely cares for the Kingdom of Gweliven," Aina stated. "Although she has been spoiled by her Father, she didn't beco arrogant because of it and even does her best to help as many people as possible.
"She had also joined the competition to beco the next ruler of the Kingdom, which surprised her family. Even so, they all accepted that she had as much right as her brothers to beco the next ruler of the Kingdom of Gweliven.
"To be honest, I'm not fond of sharing Lux with more won. But, if it's her, I don't mind making her one of my sisters. However, the Marriage Certificate and the Marriage Contract would have to go.
"I'm not allowing her to get ahead of in marrying Lux. I already feel sad since both of you beca Lux's fiance before . I should have been his first, considering our past relationship with each other."
Although Aina was using the sa monotonous voice as before, Iris still detected the hint of disappointnt in them.
Of course, she was not aware of Lux's and Aina's relationship in their past lives since neither would elaborate to her.
Eriol and Max had stepped in and made their opinions known about sharing information about the Cycle of Reincarnation.
Iris found Aina's complaint quite amusing, especially the part when the Dwarf said that she should have been Lux's First Fiance.
She had grown up with Lux since they were children, so it was impossible for Aina to get ahead of her when it ca to the Half-Elf's love and attention.
At least, that was what she thought in her heart.
"I see, thank you for the information," Iris said.
"How do you plan to handle this incident?" Aina inquired.
She was quite curious about how Iris and Cai would handle this matter and, frankly, she wanted to witness how things would unfold.
"I'll ssage you again after I talk to the others," Iris replied. "Don't worry. I'll make sure that you'll be there when we give our verdict."
After assuring Aina that she wouldn't be left out of the proceedings, Iris ssaged Valerie, Aurelia, Aurora, Ali, and Ari, about the incident as well.
"That girl made a very ballsy move," Ari comnted. "She got balls, I'll give her that."
"She doesn't have balls, Ari," Ali corrected her sister. "She's a girl, not a boy."
"… Sister, it's just a figure of speech."
"I know. I'm just teasing you."
"You…"
Valerie and Aurelia also found Princess Anastasia's move quite bold.
After putting themselves in the Dwarven Princess' shoes, they realized that they wouldn't be able to do what she did.
As fellow mbers of the Royal Family, the two Dragon Princesses couldn't help but be impressed and frustrated at the sa ti with what Princess Anastasia had done.
They loved Lux, but they also knew that they couldn't do anything remotely similar to what the Dwarven Princess dared to do.
The more they thought about it, the more they felt that Anastasia was both scary and impressive at the sa ti.
But, just like Aina, they didn't want the Dwarf Princess to disrupt the pecking order.
Even if she wanted to beco Lux's fiance, she should fall in line like the rest of them and not jump ahead in line to seal the deal with a Marriage Certificate and a Marriage Contract.
Aurora, on the other hand, was just as impressed by the others. In fact, she was looking forward to personally eting Princess Anastasia and getting to know her better.
Among Lux's lovers, Aurora knew more about desperation and loneliness than all of her sisters combined.
She knew how much courage it took to take that one step to grab hold of what she truly wanted in life.
The Misfortune's Beloved believed that Princess Anastasia felt the sa, especially since she truly wanted to be with Lux.
Although it might have started as puppy love, that feeling must have only grown stronger the more ti they were apart.
Usually, puppy love disappeared after so ti, but Princess Anastasia's feelings were different.
Lux very rarely ca to see her in the Dwarven Kingdom because he was pretending to be dead so that Twilight Rain wouldn't look for him.
He was also busy traveling all over Elysium and dealing with the Divine Army, who was always on his heels.
After talking to Lux's lovers, Iris and Cai talked a bit more and ca to an agreent.
They then told the Half-Elf their decision.
He didn't say anything and simply nodded his head before going back to the Kingdom of Gweliven to talk to Princess Anastasia, King Uther, as well as Nevreal.
