Chapter 272: Rise of the Moon Empire: Feast till dawn
Even before the day of the feast, envoys of kingdoms and envoys of the other two empire had arrived to the Moon empire capital city, Platinum City and are being hosted in the Palatium, which had infinite rooms for them, not only that, they were large on the inside compared to how they looked on the outside.
On the day of the feast, the rate of chariots that entered Platinum City trippled, the image of the city had changed from when it was just Fenrir kingdom. Nobles continued to admire it as they had never seen a city as a large as a kingdom itself. The tall houses, the beautiful marbled floor the green array of grasses, the warm and elegant scent that filled the atmosphere, everything about Platinum City was noble-like and of course they didn’t onow these things were managed by the North sea herself.
Rein was being dressed up by the maidservant in an elegant attire that had been sewed by a renowned Tailor of the central artic. He looked at himself in the mirror as they combed his hair and tied neatened it, leaving two strands in front, his blue eyes ca out more beautiful, his warm skin rhyd well with the black royal suit that he was wearing, on the coat of the suit was a silver wyrm design and the belt of the coat was white, so was the trousers itself then he wore a black shoe. A while large coat that reached his feet was placed upon his shoulders. He had no crown on as he had suggested that instead of having a crown to serve as the symbol of power the entirety of his dressing should be a that symbol, but a silver ear jewellery of a dragon wrapped around the moon was attached to the back of both his ears as a symbol, he also had an insignia made of Platinum of the sa design hung on his chest.
The maidservant bowed as they finished and he elegantly walked outside, eting Ariel, Azes and Theo just outside his room, they were also dressed in black suits and white trouser(Ariel was in skirt), but it had no embroidery or excess badges like his. He smiled at them and they all walked out to the Main hall were all the guest had settled down. Kuthuya belated reached his back still trying to fix his collar, Rein found him funny as he knew Kuthuya was not used to these things.
"Co here" he said to Kuthuya, who got on his knees. Rein moved closer and bent a little, adjusting and fixing his collar. Then gave him a chest dust.
"There you are good" he said.
Kuthuya’s eyes was filled with admiration.
The trumpet sound went into the air as the Paladins, now cladded in silver armours with an engraving of the Moon empire insignia and a white Cape, that also had the insignia of the empire in its centre, embroidered in silver colour. They marched to the forward with Rein alone amidst them as they marched from inside the big hall to the outside where the people who could not make it inside watched from.
Nobles and commoners stood alike, even though the nobles could not stand it, they were open to leave the feast, but they endured for the sake of what they seek.
Rein waves his hands in the air as the people hailed, shouting.
"Long live the moon Emperor!"
"Long live the moon Emperor!"
"Long live the moon Emperor!"
"Long live the moon Emperor!!"
...
The Coat on Rein’s back was pulled by Arnette and Jon, they placed it aside and from a black standing box they brought out a black coat, with a white insignia of the Moon empire, engraved to it(the white coat did not have an engraved insiginia) but the insignia was different as on top of the Moon sat a crown, the coat was worn over him, the ear jewellery was also changed and the all the badges on his chest were changed by the ten pillars. This was a coronation ceremony. As they were done they stepped behind and went on their knees while Azes took the silver moon sword carved from the gold dragon’s bones and gave it to Rein. Rein stared at the sheathed sword for few seconds and tightened his grip on it as he pulled it out and raised it to the sky.

People continued hailing.
"All hail the Moon Emperor".
"All hail the Moon Emperor"
"All hail the Moon Emperor"
...
"The people sure love their Emperor" a middle aged man on low cut and a black suit, sitting inside, said.
"Of course they do...Penguin" Lewis, cladded in a white robe as the envoy of the Euphoria empire responded. "Even our Emperor’s coronation was not as glorious as this..." he said.
Penguin smiled, "...are we going to be friends with them...?" He asked.
"Depends on how the eting goes..." Lewis responded.
"There are alot of strong people here...especially those ten pillars and that tall black haired guy standing behind the Emperor... I won’t like to make an enemy out of them"
"Are you scared..." Lewis asked.
"It’s called being careful" Penguin responded.
"Sure sure"
The coronation was over after a few speech of Rein to the people. He was escorted back to hall by the Paladins and sat on the whitish Platinum tall throne seat. The ten pillars also went to their table which was in the fore front, closer to the Emperor than the rest of the guest.
The room was filled with enjoynt of all kinds, ats of high value, different varieties of food according to different cultures. Yhuzia walked to Rein’s front and bowed stretching the large scroll to him, Kuthuya walked forward collected the scroll and gave it to the moon Emperor on his knees.
Rein collected it,
’Ti to for rewards eh...’ he said in his head as he opened it.
He almost let out a scream as he saw how long of a lost he was going to be reading. He shook his head in pity for himself and started anyway.
Silence filled the hall as he began,
"I am grateful to the my comrades, the soldiers that stood and forth with ...I am sorry and most grateful to the ones who are not with us today, who laid down their life for our sake, to protect us, to being us victory, they are the true heroes..."
They could all hear the sincerity of Rein’s word as he spoke.
"...The rewards will never make up up your effort but will always be a show of my gratitude towards your effort. For all soldiers, regardless of races and birth, that participated in the war. They would be given three hundred gold each, the family of those who are dead will be given six hundred gold"
The crowd murmured in awe,
"Isn’t that enough to buy the nobility title of baron" they said amidst themselves.
The murmuring died down as Rein continued,
"...I will first start with the appointnt of the nobility title from the highest to the smallest achievents during the war. The man with the highest achievent here today..." Rein smiled and continued, "Jon Clemon, who was the man at the fore front of our victory and a man that fought even to the brink of death..."
Jon majestically stood up and walked to Emperor’s front, Rein took the moon sword and placed it on both his shoulders as he said.
"I hereby with my authority bestow upon you the title of Grand Duke and a territory of your choice to be your duchy."
"I pledge to serve the moon empire with all I possess within " Jon said as he received the insignia of a grand Duke and went back to his table, his mother smiled from where she sat, proud of him.
"Arnette Vuz Hazlitt Belmont, I bestow upon you the title of grand Duke and a territory of your choice"
Rein continued like that all day.
The Moon Empire rose to be the strongest in the entire Western continent as no empire has been able to afford the nobility status of a grand duke, plus the moon empire had four grand dukes; Grand Duke Jon Clemon, Grand Duke Arnette vuz Hezlitt Belmont, Grand Duke Yhuzia and Grand Duke Zolin Hildat(took on a new na), four Archdukes; Archduchess Natasha Ravinger, Archduchess, Goldevia Osmond, Archduke Benjamin Wimber, Archduke Braschiold Erindell(chose to take on the gold dragon’s na), six dukes; Duchess Sigrid Onoskelis(took on a new na), Duke Roldan Pecher(took on a new na), Duke Lorrim Thelfar(took on a new na), Duchess Estrid Reiner(took on a new na), Duke Milan Wimberly, Duchess Aurora Wimbledon(took on a new na; given by Reinard), five marquees, marquees Admon Roleen(took on a new na), Marquees Tildan Stone(took on a new na, forrly Garagos), Marquees Bel Deiner(given a last na, the red Knight was registered under his nobility na, he was also given the title of a marquees because Rein didn’t want him to stand out), Marquees Grim Aeriend(given a new last na, Thurber and Jihi were registered under Grimm’s Household), Marquees Maximillan Kroft(given a last na), four Counts; Count Roland Adinett , Count Vandraak Weeldert(last na renad by Rein), Count Takeshi Keiji(Kain and Maxwell were registered under his household), Count Floki Thermall, seven viscounts who were knights that did exceeding well during the battle, and seventy two barons(soldiers and knights), every Knight was granted the title of a lord and given a dwelling place, depending on which of the cities and territories they are posted to. After the long announcent, they all partied till daybreak, Rein later changed to a casual dressing and joined the citizens as they partied outside the hall and on the streets of Platinum capital city, the nobles, joined them naturally and the streets were filled with rejoice till the dawn of the day.
