Chapter 375 - Banquet 2 electric boogaloo

After making it back to the palace Daedalus asked Fire to follow him to the royal table in the original banquet hall. Everyone had already left except for Danel and Ceridwen who had taken the chance to relax away from everything and catch up.

Seeing Daedalus walk in with another elf made hem a bit unhappy but Daedalus felt it would be bad if he didn't introduce his new sparring partner. There was just something nagging at the back of his mind telling him something bad would happen otherwise.

It just so happened that as hey walked in this nagging feeling disappeared, but seeing as they where already there Daedalus introduced Fire. Fire was of course a bit confused but Daedalus went ahead and explained why he had brought him there. So he explained the nagging feeling and asked if anyone had an idea as to why.

Ceridwen was the first to respond "It could be possible that something or someone was planning to make a move on Fire but you bringing him here stopped them."

This deduction caused Fire to sigh before saying "I believe that would be correct, I have worries that Frost is working with the another race in order to sabotage our team of elites. In fact he had invited me out for a spar after the initial banquet ended, had he not been unconscious after the banquet I would have gone with him."

Hearing what Fire had to say Ceridwen said "I think we should head to the main banquet hall and let the servants clean in here. Fire could you follow Daedalus to the table set up for all of you?"

Fire nodded to this leaving Daedalus and his father to think 'Do we not exist?'. Shortly afterward Daedalus was walking with fire toward the main banquet hall. The two had been talking about the tournament along the way.

As they got onto the topic of the dwarven elites however the two had arrived in front of the hall. Daedalus took it as a sign to wait before they spoke about the dwarven elites.

The two then walked in and headed for the table set up for the elven elites. Frost could be seen brooding in a seat towards the back of the table clearly trying to hide some bruising on his neck.

What surprised Daedalus though was, who was at the head of the dwarven elites table. Shaun had taken the seat and was smiling smugly at Daedalus. Daedalus could only hide his suprise as to not give his brother something to play off of.

Other than Shaun Daedalus could see that none of the others at the dwarven side where particularly impressive cultivation wise. On the other hand they all had what Daedalus would describe as the aura of craftsmen.

After taking there seats at the head of the elven elites table Daedalus watched as his father, mother, aunt and uncle as well as both of his grandparents filed into the table for royals. Unsurprisingly to Daedalus both of his grandfather's took the thrones, this caused a bit of commotion from everyone in the hall.

Eventually the hall quietened down and the two emperors lifted a glass each and said "Let the banquet begin!"
