Chapter 17: A Strange Outing

Royalty Valley.

The largest entertainment center in the whole of EC and perhaps the entire Earth. A place where never-before-seen relaxation technological pieces of equipment and also the finest reservations are present.

Royalty Valley wasn't just a single building, no, it was an entire estate to itself comprising hundreds of skyscrapers, each dealing with different aspects.

But just as its name suggests, It is only for royalties.

A towering structure, one of the largest in the entire place, could be seen, with the words,

WINE OF GAIA, at its top.

Two figures appeared at the front of the large snow shite revolving glass of the structure as they both entered into it.

Khan entered the towering structure, greatly shocked by the unbelievably advanced features, though not a single muscle moved on his face.

"Pretty Cool, right?" Aurelia said, beaming with a smirk on her face but couldn't help but be disappointed noticing the lack of surprise on Khan's face.

"So, this is the place to tell me about the ruins?" Khan asked with a raised eyebrow.

Looking at the people walking around all dressed in official business suits and with heads raised, unconcealed disdain and pride on their faces though they shook hands together with fake smiles on their faces.

Everything just offset him and he didn't feel a single good thing about the place.

"Relax, you'll learn about the ruins soon," Aurelia said as she suddenly grabbed his hands and dragged him towards the elevator.

Immediately she pressed the number 463 on the button as the door shut and Khan felt a slight almost imperceptible shake as they were wheezed upward by the elevator.

DIIIIIIIING

Immediately the elevator stopped as its doors opened and Khan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at the new view.

"Pretty cool, huh?'

"We're here to..Um..congratulate you..."

"Congratulate me?" Khan asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes. You just got a job in one of the top five best organizations in the whole of EC. Do you think that's not worth some couple of drinks?" Aurelia said.

"Hmm, you have a point..." Khan said with a thoughtful expression but he didn't even understand what she was saying.

'Congratulations? Of what?'

DIIIIIIIING

Suddenly the door opened up and a group of people came in, their gaze scanned around the place, and soon met with their seats and immediately they slowly walked toward them

Khan ignored them before turning to look at Aurelia and noticed something different about her.

Something about her aura. It had once again turned regal, looking like the ones of every other person in the place and he could see a very slight sign of nervousness as well as shock as he watched her look at the group that was inching closer to them, or say, a particular figure standing at the front of the group.

A young man with luscious dark hair that reached to his shoulders, an oval-shaped face, hiding dark gem-like eyes, and with elongated jaw. He was no doubt a handsome young man.

He exuded an aura of regality and power as his eyes looked at Aurelia, and a smile appeared on his face.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Princess Aurelia of the Abyssal core guild..." He voiced out, his voice gentle to behold, although to Khan it sounded too feminine for his liking.

Immediately, Aurelia gently stood up from her seat as she flashed him a smile,

"The pleasure is Mine, Sir Tyrone of Starlight..."

'Hmm, starlight?' Khan thought, trying to find where he last heard of that word.

Immediately Aurelia announced who he was, the entire group present in the room stood up from their seat, before sitting down back, all except for a single person who continued sipping his juice without a single care in the world.

Immediately, the entire aura surrounding the place changed.
