Chapter 815 The Princess Of The Garden's Serene Bliss (2)
"Thank you. I needed to be at my best for this particular occasion," Orion responded, arriving by the Princess of the Garden's side and firmly holding her hand, "Shall we?"
The Princess of the Garden nodded, "Let's go," she responded, smiling brightly.

About three thousand high-ranking Pixies gathered within a large hall for their celebration banquet, marking the return of the god Aerendir's divine artefacts. These were the leading families and households conversing in groups—some seeking to resolve grievances and start anew, while others forged new connections and strengthened existing ones.
Suddenly, a resounding bell echoed through the vast hall, silencing everyone's conversations.
"What's happening? Why did they ring the bell again? I thought everyone had already arrived," a woman quietly asked her friend, furrowing her brows in confusion.
Her friend looked at her in bafflement. "What? Don't tell me you didn't know that Mr. Orion, the architect of the Orion's Cities, and the Princess of the Garden, the most important living individual in the Garden apart from the Aegis of the Arctic Deity, will also be attending the banquet today," she responded, raising a brow at her friend.
The woman widened her eyes in shock at the unbelievable information. She attempted to speak but quickly sealed her lips, shifting her attention towards the entrance door as it was slowly pulled open.
However, it wasn't just her; all those across the room unaware of Orion and the Princess of the Garden's arrival were instantly shocked after being informed. They all focused on the door, their eyes blazing with anticipation.
Zik stood beside the door, standing straight with his chest puffed out.
"The architect of the Orion's Cities, the liberator of the Prismerion and the Pixie race, and one of the strongest warriors within the Orion's Cities, Mr. Orion, along with his partner, the renowned Princess of the Garden, have graced us with their presence at the banquet," Zik announced loudly.Folloow current novÊls on nov/3lb((in).(co/m)
"You are right; it's wise to let them enjoy themselves fully," High King Eldric agreed with his wife's insight.
He promptly summoned a guard and instructed them to keep a vigilant watch over Orion and the Princess of the Garden, ensuring no one disturbed their peace and comfort during their stay. Although he trusted most attendees to behave, he couldn't discount the possibility of troublemakers.
The guard hastened to relay the High King's orders to the others.
High King Eldric and High Queen Rowena then welcomed other esteemed guests.

After downing her second drink, the Princess of the Garden slammed her wooden cup against the table. Her expression twisted in displeasure as the sour, tongue-tingling aftertaste lingered before dissipating.
"You don't like it?" Orion asked, arching a brow. He had allowed her to drink, knowing her constitution would nullify any adverse effects.
The Princess nodded. "It tastes just like the previous one," she replied.
Suddenly, the sounds of instruments filled the air, and gradually, all the Pixies around them found partners and began to rise into the air.
