Chapter 1115: Housewarming Festivities, The Tempting Proposal



Nonetheless, the impact of this gesture would be more significant among Paradise's ordinary inhabitants.

Orion held both ends of the sizable scissors over the white rope while Reena had his hand. Together, they clasped their hands and cut through the rope.

As the red rope fell, a chorus of applause echoed through the surrounding Four-eared elves. The key leaders, several members of the Supreme Leader's main family, the former Village Chief and Chieftess, a few Prismerion Divine apostles, the reputable warriors, Seig and Evadne, and numerous other influential invitees all joined in the celebration, clapping their hands together.

Patriarch Lyndon stepped forward and addressed the crowd, "Everyone, let's go in and make the most of the day! The celebration has only just begun!" he announced loudly.

Cheers of excitement erupted, filling the air and signalling the crowd's enthusiasm.

Patriarch Lyndon turned to face Orion and Reena, gesturing for them to lead the way through the gate.

Orion nodded, handing the scissors back to him. He turned and led the way inside, with Reena walking beside him.

The key leaders followed closely behind them.

Next came the Supreme Leader's main family, walking through the gates.

Following them, Former Patriarch Rylan entered with the new Patriarch Lyndon by his side.

Then came the former Village Chief and Chieftess.

The Prismerion divine apostles followed next.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Then, the village's reputable warriors.

Finally, everyone else made their way through the gates, entering the new Four-Eared Elves residence.

The celebration was scheduled to last a week, allowing every inhabitant of Paradise to participate in the joyous event. It also served as a diversion to shift attention away from the phenomenon that occurred during Aurora's ascension.

The key leaders aided in making the celebration as grand as possible.

Initially, the plan was to commemorate Aurora's ascension with a celebration, but she declined, choosing to keep her ascension a secret from all but a select few. She preferred staying in the Golden Palace to train with Aerialia and Ilse. As a result, the plan was changed. This elevated the standing of the Four-Eared Elves and showcased their new city, turning it into the first of its kind-the fifth border city not directly connected to the other border cities. Due to Aurora using her powers to help clear the Vylkr vines and the rising tensions in the world, the key leaders and other important figures all left within two hours. The only people remaining were the Prismerions' Divine apostles, who decided to live among the Four-Eared Elves to learn about the Spirit Realm ritual rites and Orion.

"You are correct," Orion nodded. But he's already dead! He wanted to say, but he couldn't. Exposing such information was one of Paradise's taboos!

"Do you know my purpose for gathering the forces of the Runaway Cities under Paradise?"

Orion asked.

Isadora nodded. "It's because you desire to build a singular force capable of crushing any enemies, including the divine, and to form a haven for the inhabitants of Paradise and those from the Runaway Cities who have pledged their allegiance to Paradise, allowing them to wander the land as they wish," she responded, her expression serious.

With goddess Aurora clearing away the Vylkr vines from part of the territory below, it already proved that their plan wasn't merely a dream but one that was slowly coming to fruition. Suddenly, Isadora's expression morphed into a frown, and she asked with a raised brow, "Why are you asking such a question, Supreme Leader? Remember, you were the one who told

me all of this."

Even if he hadn't told her anything about it, she would have heard it from other inhabitants, but that didn't change the fact that he had informed her first.

Orion nodded. Indeed, he was the one who had told her about this-to help her understand their rapid growth and why they needed to grow even faster.

"I'm trying to help you understand something important..." Orion said softly. He turned his head to look at Isadora. "I may be seen as the one guiding Paradise's future, preparing for towering challenges and readying our forces for battles we can't even imagine. But in truth, I am a man who indulges in the present," he sighed softly.

He continued, "While others worry endlessly about tomorrow, calculating every step with hesitation, I've chosen to embrace each moment as it comes. It isn't because I ignore the future, but because I am prepared to face it with unwavering resolve."

Orion held Isadora's trembling gaze. "The best way to live your life is to do so as you desire, without restraint or fear, because tomorrow will come with its own variables no matter how much we prepare for it, especailly in such a chaotic world," he paused, allowing his words to settle. "Do you understand?"

With her hands clenched, Isadora nodded in response. After a while, she opened her mouth and asked, "What does the Supreme Leader think about a union... between us?"

Orion raised an eyebrow, his lips curling into a smirk. "It sounds as though you don't plan on putting any effort into this proposal?" he teased.

Isadora's cheeks flushed slightly, realizing her formal tone wasn't quite right for the moment. She coughed, straightened her back, and then corrected herself. "What does Mr.

Orion think about a union... between us?"

"Well, it sounds like a proposal worth considering," Orion replied, chuckling softly.
