Chapter 122 - The Day Of Banquet

The next day, 

The Diesswrin territory was prepared for the huge banquet, the guests started coming from all of the Seloud and other kingdoms as well, from the early morning.

Everybody was prepared for the grand day, especially the nobles, and Selvis Diesswrin.

While in the cottage, the party prepared themselves, 

"Are you ready?" Zia opened the door and went outside,

"It's my first mission of course! I don't want to be a guy who has run behind the tail since the start!" Styrmir walked out cracking his finger with a wide grin, 

"Let's save lady Jane and everybody and put an end to this?" Bisca huffed, she was like an eager cat.

Cecelia was in the cottage praying for them, Zia already called Copperlin to pick up Cecelia, and now she was in Riger's mansion.

"Lady Cecelia, do you really think they can win?" Tue maid asked, 

"I don't know, but my heart is telling me that whatever this will lead to, it will be far beyond than just a change."

Three of them got into the town, they hid close to the mansion's gate in the room and peeked, where the carriages were entering, and Zia noticed something.

"Damn! This will be tough, they are using sensory magus circles!" 

"What is that?" Bisca tilted her head in confusion,

The glowing marking in the ground before the gate which every carriage has to pass! That is the Sensory magus circle, it can sense the person and everything inside, moreover it is also like a landmine that destroys everything that has some kind of an active weapon." Styrmir sighed, 

"Now what? How will we enter the mansion?" Bisca started panicking, 

"I can't think of anything! The security of the walls and the other side is much more strict!" Zia was pacing in the room, 

"Calm down! There is still on way!" Styrmir turned to them with a smirk.

Riger was already in the mansion, his whole troop was left at the border with enough food and water, only Riger was the one alone in the mansion, all the nobles were staying at him with displeasure.

"What are those barbarians doing here?" 

"Is he also part of it?"

"I don't think so…" 

The muttering made Riger uncomfortable and he went to the gallery, where Melvi was standing keeping an eye on everyone.

Riger was stunned seeing her here, he already knew about the whole incident, so he hid from her.

"What should I do? I don't know if it's the right thing to do but there is no other way." Riger was fighting his concise while clenching his fist.

In a few minutes, the feast started getting exciting, the people were chattering and looking forward to something, suddenly a masked guy on the high gallery clapped, 

"All of our respected guests!

I ask for your attention and appreciation for our benevolent and honorable guest!

The Crown Prince of the mighty kingdom of Seloud!

Herculen Gioen Kaoslin!"

The grand gate opened to the ballroom and a young teenage boy of the same age as the Ovyrus student walked in.

A great choir sang and the music started playing as he kept his steps moving, but he had a blank face like he didn't want to be here.

"And now the host of this magnificent banquet and the heroes of our kingdom!

The most generous and kind noble!

Sir. Selvis Diesswrin!

And the heart of this grand feast!

Sir. Roschart Diesswrin!" 

Both father and son came from the inside and stood on the grand stage upon the stairs with the crown prince, the crown prince seated in the middle of them while Selvis and Roschart were on his sides.

After small congratulatory speeches and formalities, everyone raised their glass,

"So now ladies and gentlemen! Hail the land of Seloud!" They did toast and,

"Let the celebration begin!"

It was already dusk and the feast was on its prime, but the crown prince looked bored, 

"What happened prince? Is there anything that has displeased you?" Roschart bowed to him, 

Crown Prince sighed, 

"Nothing! I just want to get over it and want to return to my palace! What is the point of this banquet?" Crown looked at Selvis with his cheeks resting on his fist.

"My! Don't say that your highness! It's my dear son's birthday! He is a key figure to our kingdom, his presence should always be presented grandly." 

Selvis had his cunning smile on his face as usual.

It ticked the crown prince and he moved his gaze.

*** Meanwhile, at the back gate, 

Some stranger was asking for the entry in the banquet in a rusty carriage, 

"So you are the dancers? But I don't think his grace has called any dancers for the event!" The guard was drooling with the sight in front of him, 

Two voluptuous girls with a transparent veil on their face, their hair was braided with flowers and had a slim blouse with shiny decorations, barely which was keeping everything inside, they wore a gold waistband with chiming bells on it which were jingling above their butt with every step…

Their waistband had a long silky slit cloth, unfolding their one leg from hip to ankle, these two were goddesses of beauty reincarnated for them.

And they were Bisca who was standing boldly and Zia who was red from the embarrassment.

"Well, you see! His grace said to us we have to entertain only some of the special guests! Do you think these beauties are for everyone! These are the angels of hotness, you understand!" 

Styrmir who disguised himself as an old man, with drums and a banjo hanging from his neck, he was acting grumpy, but he also couldn't take his eyes away from them, 

"But still, we can't let you in without permission. It would be better if you talk to me while looking me in the eye, so turn around!" The guard cleared his throat, Styrmir turned around and returned to reality.

Not just one or two guards were blocking their way but a whole troop of 40 guards now had their eye on these two.

"Chief, something is wrong! They could be trespassers!" A young guard walked to the chief and whispered, 

"I know but! Just look at the girl with silver hair! I want her things to suffocate me! How can a woman be so beautiful!" 

The chief was in a daze, he couldn't keep his eyes off Zia, who couldn't keep her eyes up and was pushing her arm into her breast to hide them, but they were too thin for them.

"Why is everybody talking about that silver-haired girl? What so special about her-" the young guard just took a peek at Zia's face and slipped into a trance, and was left speechless.

Styrmir noticed this and smiled mischievously,

"Ah! What rude people! I can't believe they are disrespecting us so much! First, they told us to come from the back door! Now, this! I don't want my grandchild to be in this house!" 

Styrmir smacked the cane and grabbed both of their hands, and started walking away.

"Grandchild! What the hell are you talking about?" The chief guard was bewildered, by the look he was the only one who heard this, he sprinted to Styrmir and grabbed his arm, 

"What the hell are you talking about?" The chief whispered anxiously, 

"Yes! Grandchild! Look at my younger daughter! That white head! She has his child in her belly! That guy! He came to our town to seek labor and stayed there, and my daughter was sent to please him! 

But her beauty blinded his sense and my grandchild was made! The news spread to the whole town! She was going to commit suicide but he said that he will take her as his mistress!!

Who is in their right mind would let her go to waste!!! 

So he told me to sneak in, and he will announce about it today!!" 

Zia was steaming in embarrassment, he hid her face, and the chief thought she was crying because of her misery!

"Well our lord can be like this sometimes!! I understand now why he did that! If the news spread before the time, it would've been dangerous to the lady! All the nobles would've targeted her using his lord!! I see! I see!" Chief nodded, 

"Aren't you smart! You are a worthy chief!" Styrmir chuckled; he didn't think this through….

"Alright let them go! And escort them to the backroom!" Chief yelled and the gate was opened, they passed and chief walked them until they cross, 

"I have a question? What about that other daughter?" The chief murmured to him, 

Styrmir looked at Bisca and she waved at him with a smile, 

"She…well she has the brother of the duke Roschart in her belly!" Styrmir whipped and they went away.

All the guards stood there with their mouths open, after a few minutes a strong headache stunned the chief and the other guards. He collapsed on the ground, and the young guard came to me holding his head.

"What the fuck? I can't believe this! It was like my sanity for a while! What fuck was that girl!" Chief recalled Zia's face and it eased her pain.

***

"So tell me! How do you want to die?" Zia cracked her fingers at Styrmir.
