Alex welcomed the esteemed guests to the table where Emmy was sitting, the two great elders were shocked beyond words to see Emmy. Involuntarily their body bowed in front of her which made the whole all visitors' mouth wide opened.
They all were petrified because these two elders were the legendary masters of the great Esbertrazian clan, the elder Miandrake, and elder Lathodore who were considered as the almighty were actually bowing before a mere little woman. Astonishing!!!!!!
Then only everybody remembered what Alex had said to the king before he went to welcome these elders. All of them had only one question in their minds, 'who is this woman actually?'
Even the Salian king got flustered with the gesture of the Esbertrazian elders. As Emmy looked at the dumbfounded Alex, she knew this was not what he planned. Looking at the bowing figures, she felt some familiarity but her conscious mind gave no information to her.
" Elder ones, please rise. I am not worthy of your bow. Don't make this young one feel guilty anymore."
Hearing Emmy, the elders straightened their back and clear shock could be seen in their eyes. The elder Miandrake could not believe himself, he never thought of bowing in front of this girl but just with a glance, he couldn't help himself other than to bow before her. The same was the case of the elder Lathodore. The elder Rotrigues had asked them to visit the banquet held by the Salian clan if they wish to see the person they desire to see but never they thought of such an instance.
Both the elders looked at each other and sat on the chairs designated for them. They couldn't utter any words as the shock they got was not little. The elder Miandrake was even thinking of strangling elder Rotrigues for his scheme. They have never once left their castle from the day their lady disappeared and dare Rotirgeues lie of finding the person they desired to meet after a long time. This girl was younger than their mistress and was not that pretty. Rage was boiling inside the elder Miandrake whereas elder Lathodore eased up quickly.
" Don't you find the aura of this girl similar to our miss, I think she is one of us. Let us first watch the scenario then will act on it."
Emmy who was sitting at the other table could feel the same towards those two elderly figures. Alex held her hands and whispered in her ears, " Yes, those two are the great elders of Esbertrazian clans, your father's closest kins. The one with the long white beard is elder Lathodore and the other who is sitting there agitated is elder Miandrake."
" Elder Miandrake????" Emmy recalled the conversation which she heard in her subconscious state. She shivered upon thinking back to the conversation in which one person had clearly used to address the other person.
Emmy was also feeling ecstatic to see her father's closest people but it came to halt when someone else touched her feet with his.
" Who are you, little woman? I truly underestimated you! I guess you have the back up from the great dark clan, impressive. "
" Well! Don't you worry about my people, first you keep hold of your puppets who are swooning over my man. Guess, she isn't satisfied with your prowess as a man." Emmy scoffed at Victor.
Alex smiled hearing the way his woman was insulting his step-brother while on the contrary, Victor thought in mind, " Once my plan gets succeeded, I will show what my capability to you."
To make the banquet lively after the sudden shock, the elder Floretren stood up and calmly invited the main characters of the day. Alex and Emmy walked down towards the center of the platform and greeted the guests.
" All of you are thinking about the crown prince's fiancee, right! Okay, I will break the suspense now. Let me once again introduce Miss Lamia Shagues to all, she is the goddaughter of the elder Rotrigues of the great Esbertrzian clan. "
The whole crowd gasped, no one could believe the elders of the dark clan to have a goddaughter and even to be engaged with the crown prince as everyone knew about the feud between the Salian family and dark clan.
Emmy smiled and introduced herself to the guests, " Greetings everyone, I am coming to your land Vilmonark for the first time, please take care of me while I'm here." Almost ninety percent of the guests fell for her smile while the elders from the dark clan were astonished beyond words.
" Lathodore, are you thinking what I'm thinking? Why do I feel this girl has some resemblance to our Shawn?"
" Yes, I have seen his woman twice, now I feel this girl resembles Lilian more. Rotrigues didn't lie in a way, he did find our Shawn's daughter at last."
" Yes, our miss would have been the happiest if she was here now, but why is Shawn's daughter getting engaged with this punk. If not for Rotrigues, I would have never let him live his life happily."
"Miandrake, do not flare up now. Remember Lamia is our blood, so we have to keep her value up here. After this banquet, let us talk to her to leave that cunning imbecile."
Meanwhile seeing her smile, Victor clearly felt that his heart did miss a few beats. Even though he had played with few royal beauties but this one, made his heart flutter like a butterfly. He dug his nails into his skin in anger when he saw Alex was holding her by her waist and they were so intimate with each other. He slowly looked towards Arona who nodded her head to signal that the plan was executed properly.
Victor's vile smirk was noticed by Janet who was keeping the guard on the actions of princess Arona and the second prince. Although she was observing them from the moment the banquet began, still she was unable to decipher their plan.
The couple then made way to greet the Esbertrazian elders. Emmy smiled gracefully at them, " Elders, I know you have found out my real identity by now. Please give me your permission as well as your blessing to avenge my parents."
Elder Lathodore was feeling bliss inside his heart, still, he proudly did not show his true feelings outside. He nodded his head and raised his hand to give a blessing but suddenly he touched her fingertips while raising his hands and a bolt of electricity ran through him.
" My child, the dimensional world is awaiting you."
