Chapter 647 News of Rivalry

The lunch meeting that day was somewhat less formal than the one the day before. Instead of a wide variety of the nobles from the kingdom, there were a lot of city business people that had been invited to dine with the Royals.

That was a great honour for most of them, as the Royal Palace wasn't an easy place to get an invitation to, and the day's crowd included all the largest bankers, financiers, and international importers in the nation.

Most of them were not from the Palace region, and they had travelled quite a distance to come celebrate the return of the Queen. These ones should be somewhat more loyal to the crown than the nobles who had been forced to be here, and who had often been visibly upset about her return on the first day, before they managed to regain their composure.

They hadn't been summoned, they were the ones who had requested an audience and had either won a lottery seat or had been recommended by one of the more powerful members of the business groups.

The Royals also seemed to be much more relaxed today. These people would never have the status to attempt a coup or to challenge them for their positions, so they had no reason to be as on edge against anything but an outright assassination attempt.

The Royals were always cautious about that, though, it just came with the territory.This content originates from n0v3lbin•

King David of Nephrite appeared to be on a mission today, and he struck up a conversation as soon as Wolfe was seated at the table.

"I have news from our people that went to Forest Grove. The presence of the powerful Demons has had an unexpected effect on the political structure of your hometown. It appears that the Fae were not particularly fond of our plan to prevent the mana of the world from going Feral, and they have sent their own delegation to the town to match ours.

It isn't causing too severe of an issue at the moment, but I can assume that it might be getting uncomfortable with that many powerful people in one place. The ambience would be a bit like the Palace during the parties, when every minister and assistant is present." He began.

"Oh, good point. I wonder how many of us can use the right elements to create them?" One of the businessmen sitting nearby pondered.

He had gotten a room in the Palace last night, shared with a friend who worked in the Palace, and he had gotten to experience the beds firsthand.

"It's gravity and air magic, with the option of fire magic. A lot of you can use fire elements, as well as unholy, but gravity is much more uncommon. It can be done with just air, but it's not quite as luxurious." Wolfe replied.

The merchant sighed. He knew some who could use air and fire, but trying to get them on board with the creation of a whole line of new beds would be difficult.

Queen Elizabeth smiled at them from the head of the table. "I do hope that you won't forget about the unfortunate souls that might want to redecorate after their bed has been made."

Wolfe nodded. "I have thought of that. Just like I did at home, I can make you a creation array. It's an inscribed version of the spell that you can use to cast it on other objects."

The other Royals and the merchant just stared at Wolfe as he explained.

"So you're saying that you can just give someone a magical token to make more of the beds? And it doesn't have to be someone who can use all the elements involved?" King Memo asked.

"That's right. You can't expect a palace to have the same interior decorator for generations, after all."
