Time passed at the Rasforh family banquet as various guests arrived one by one.
Theos spt most of his time talking to Alice while Luna recovered from the psychological imprint she had acquired after observing the coordinates giv by Theos.
None of the guests approached Theos; they all kept their distance out of fear, as no one knew his exact idtity.
Alan dared not act on his anger, and although the girls a him were deeply impressed by the handsome Theos, they still did not stray from Alan's side.
"Whatever, Halo male harem protagonist," Theos thought with a small smile as he glanced at the heroines gathered a Alan.
But that didn't matter nearly as much as the message in front of him.
The protagonist of the story, Alan Roy, and his sister, Luna Roy, had several negative thoughts, emotions, and feelings triggered by the host. We felt them: they ranged from anger to fear to horror, etc. +6000. The system's mechanical voice echoed in Theos's mind, informing him of his rewards.
"Hmm, juicy rewards," he thought ecstatically as he observed the tablet in front of him, feeling his modified mana core growing steadily.
"Why do you have that strange expression on your face?" Alice asked, confusion etched on her features.
"Nothing," he quickly died, changing his expression to his usual indiffert demeanor.
"Sure..." Alice replied, still puzzled but with a happy smile on her lips.
Despite the strange things she had witnessed, like Luna's actions, this was by far the best day of her life. She was doing everything she had always dreamed of: eating the food of the nobles, ev if it wasn't as delicious as theirs; dancing; talking... And all this happiness was amplified a thousand times by having her lover at her side.
The first was a tall man, standing six feet tall, with a muscular build and short gold hair. His emerald gre eyes were full of confidce and arrogance, and his smile radiated the power of his family. His mere presce exuded a powerful pressure.
His armor, gold and beautiful, looked so solid that it gave the impression it wouldn't budge ev under a million blows. His gold hair and handsome face matched his gold armor, creating a stunning sce.
"It's Duke Sun himself!"
"Yes, yes, the legdary Hero of the Sun, one of the strongest experts in the world. There are ev rumors that he is only one step away from reaching the true rank."
"He is the Duke himself."
The murmurs of the guests soon erupted at the sight of Duke Sun, one of the strongest subjects in the world.
Theos's eyes were fixed on this figure, accompanied by a beautiful woman at his side. Her beauty was no small thing; if Theos wer't a fan who had read the novel at least t times, he would have thought Duke Sun's wife was a heroine.
With her perfect figure signifying maturity, her cleavage was much larger than usual, almost spilling out of her dark blue dress. Her skin was flawless and , her beautiful gre eyes sparkling, and her long hair cascaded down to her slder waist. Her curvy figure could not be hidd, arousing the lust of any man... but in this case, no one dared to look at her.
And everyone knew why: one look could mean death.
But Theos wasn't worried about that. A younger woman walked gracefully behind the two figures.
His betrothed was Eleanor Sonne.
