Chapter 389: 385 The Day Of Engagement

The banquet finished rather smoothly and explosively.

The next day, everyone in the entire capital was in an uproar. How could they find themselves waking up with the news that the Third Prince will be holding his engagement ceremony today in the Temple?

He is getting gloriously engaged to the most capable woman in the empire, Lady Eli of the Forgeworn and Farauld family!

As soon as this news was verified in the Empire's newspaper, the people did not take down the celebratory flags and the night market booths.

Instead, they added more flaglets and even prepared a basket of petals to throw later when the newly engaged couple marched out of the Temple.

After such a hard time for the Empire, joyous after joyous events kept on happening which made the people in high spirits.

In the palace, Eli was given her own private chamber in Queen Tehila's place.

There she could interact with Little Han as she listened to Leon's explanation when the morning came.

Leon explained to her the matter with the 'fake paladin' who suddenly appeared and claimed credit for Eli's work.

From there Eli completely understood why Leon had to hasten his plans to propose and get engaged with her.

"Our ceremony is scheduled this afternoon. You and Little Han can still rest for the entire morning before we prepare for the engagement."

"Alright, see you later then," Eli replied after she planted a peck on Leon's lips.

Little Han also kissed his daddy goodbye while he spent his entire morning playing with her mommy.

Today, she was allowed to not attend her mentoring training with Desmond and Lainie. The rest of the Anti Curse Committee team also persuaded her last night to not attend the daily assembly because of the engagement.

While she was playing with Little Han a familiar-looking eagle hovered on their room's balcony catching Little Han's attention.

"Eeegle! Eeegle! Mommi!" Little Han stood excitedly as he pointed towards the direction where the eagle was flying.

"Alright baby, come here… Let's look at the eagle." Eli carried Little Han into her arms before she opened the window and let the eagle in.

It was the same eagle who delivered the very first letter Eli received from the Silver Dew Elves.

"Hello Mr. Eagle, long time no see." Eli greeted the eagle the same way she treated the eagle before.

The eagle looked at Eli and it flapped its majestic wings in recognition. Then it tilted its head and stared at Little Han.

As if he was wondering if the baby in Eli's womb before was Little Han now.

"Oh… Mr. Eagle, this is my son Johann." Eli seemed to catch the curiosity of the eagle and so she introduced the curious Little Han immediately.

"Hewooo Misteww Eeegle!" Little Han blinked his round eyes twice as he mimicked the way the eagle titled its head.

Little Han reached out his hands in an attempt to pet the eagle, but it immediately worried Eli and so she tried to stop him.

But the eagle instead bowed his head and closed his eyes as if he was permitting the little one to pet him.

"Jiheeeheee!" Little Han moved his little feet as he coaxed Eli to bring him to the floor and meet the eagle on his own.

He giggled in satisfaction as soon as his hands tenderly patted the eagle's head and neck.

The eagle seemed to enjoy Little Han's petting, so much that he let out a low satisfied screech while it kept its eyes closed.

Only then did Eli heave a sigh of relief. It seems like Little Han could even charm animals. Could it be because of his prematurely awakened summoner abilities?

After the little one and the eagle's interaction, the eagle then walked toward Eli and lifted one of its feet. There was a piece of paper attached to it.

Eli carefully took it out while Little Han summoned Baobao and convinced him to play with Mr. Eagle. The little piece of paper transformed into an elegant letter as soon as Eli let out a drop of mana in it.

Just like before, the letter came from the Silver Dew Elf Village and it was addressed to her. The letter was written by none other than Azayn.

"To Eli,

The news came to us and I would just like to wholeheartedly express my joy in engagement with the Third Prince!

Oh finally! My friend will soon get married!

You will be freer to create baby number two!!!!"

Eli could not help but twitch her brows as soon as she read Azayn's opening. Truly, Azayn will never miss the chance to tease her with Leon.

"I am sorry that I would not be there to witness how you too promise to marry each other, aside from our nature as elves, there is another compelling reason as to why I and my dad would not be there.

Everything started a month ago when the relic that was left behind by Guardian Asa which has been used to reinforce the treaty between our village and the Seirende Empire started to act up.

But please do not worry because we have long determined that it was not threatening. It was only that, it was the first time that it happened in the entire history of our village.

Father and the elders were afraid that this could be something that would disturb the eternal sleep of the guardian and so all of us who were in the village were now investigating the entire forest to reinforce the barriers.

We also have this information to the Emperor beforehand. Though we felt quite at a loss because our protector Lord Sylvain did not give us any further instructions other than to keep checking if there was some unauthorized intrusion in the forest.

And so once again, I apologize that I could only send my best wishes through this letter. But worry not, on the day that you are wedded, I, Azayn of the Silver Dew elves will come personally and witness your marriage!

Oh, we might also see each other during the grand tournament! Because my son has joined as one of the delegates under the Green Wave Institute!

Until then, I pray for you, my dear Little Han, and the Third Prince's safety.

Sincerely,

Azayn."

Eli kept the letter and looked at the window blankly, there was a wave of warmth and worry in her eyes.

Warmth because her dear friend Azayn did not forget her on the day that would be marked special for her.

Worry because of the news she mentioned in her letter. Could it be something related to the curses?

She hopes deep in her heart that it wasn't the case.

Even so, she looked forward to seeing Azayn and her family soon.

After that, she lingered a little bit more before Rosea entered the room and started dressing Little Han.

Fortunately, High Priest Enoch arranged for Little Han to also witness the engagement of his mommy and daddy secretly.

Guided by Rosea and Kayden, they will stay up in a secret room above the Temple hall.

Everyone was already going back and forth to prepare as the people outside waited with anticipation as the most famous couple was about to be engaged.

The common people also gathered in the plaza just in front of the Temple where a projection stone was activated for those who wanted to witness what was happening outside.

In no time, people had already arrived at the Altar of Matrimony, where everyone who attended as witnesses could see for themselves how true his sacrifice was.

–

Somewhere in the Vanderford Territory,

On a certain place called the Holy Island.

The Pope sat quietly in his study, with a graceful and dignified-looking lady sitting on the right side in front of him.

They were listening to the report being made by the cleric from the Temple.

"Your Holiness, the Pope, the report from the Seirende Temple has arrived.

The High Priest gave your message immediately to the Emperor of the Seirende Empire as soon as possible.

However, the Emperor opted not to decide on the matter and passed the right of decision to the Third Prince himself.

The Third Prince's response was actually the opposite of what our temple intended.

He instead entered the Seirende Temple and asked the heavens directly to allow him to be betrothed to his lover, the newly famous Inventor in their Empire!

Today, they will be going to the Temple to have everyone witness the lighting up of the Altar of Matrimony!"

As the two people listened to the report, the more the Pope's expression darkened.

The lady's eyes, however, remained unperturbed. As if the report did not affect her the slightest bit.

There was a strong trace of confidence in her eyes that seemed to say that she will still get what she wants no even if it was the heavens who said otherwise.

But despite the difference in their expressions, there was one thing obviously common between these two people…

The aura they emitted was totally opposite to the kind of garment they wore.
