"Gold digger"

"Hmm1, how dare you."

"He’s so cutee!"

"Bastards, this only worth 1 gold coin"

"Now the Knights are gone we’ll have to change..."

For about 10 kilometers around him everything became audible and clear to him, even the pin drop of sweats and haggling merchants, the hidden bandits too, didn’t escape his ears. While doing so, a rough information of their appearances also appeared in his mind.

Unnoticed, every breath inhaled by all the people in the palace was heard him.

His senses quadrupled in hearing and clearance, though he was yet to know how far his sight could go, it wouldn’t be less.

"Fuck" Andrew suddenly cursed out feeling a wave of disorientation hit head, from the load of information he was receiving. It was too new,too sudden, but then he could also feel the coursing strength in his vein, every detail of it.

Crack! he clenched his fist, letting out an audible sounds of his bones wrecking.

"This..." he muttered inhaling a mouthful of breath as his chest rose, clenching his fist, he stared at his arm in amazement.

’Truly wonderful.’

Sure he would have liked to study more on this sudden change and even learn the Cloud Thunder Body Art from his predecessor’s memories, but there were a few guests he had to attend to. Even though it only flashed his thoughts for a slight instant, the way the orange eyed youth stood before Ava gave guess to what was happening.

Standing up he smoothly appeared beside the door, raising a brush of wind without leaving cracks where he previously stood.

" Humm, can I... tag along?" Albeit meekly her voice raised and dropped down it’s pitch.

’Ehn?’

"Hmm..." almost nodding a yes with hum sound, his eyes suddenly darted between her lemon hair and emerald eyes, lost speechless for a second. He waved his head sides.

"You would cause a commotion."

" Ahh!" then sneakingly grabbing her pair of melons he pressed out their softness before zooming, leaving her sharp Yelp behind.

’Just how blessed am I’

...

Back in the hall.

Silence...

Just as the powerful wave of aura washed over them, it lingered for a few seconds before vanishing.

Drop!

Finn felt beads of sweat trickling down his armpit, if not that the fabric his robe was made off were of special materials and had magical effect, then he would have been soaked in his own sweat.

While others may have felt suppressed, the terror he felt was palpating, because just then the aura appeared it seemed to intently focus on him.

But then, the voice of the purple eyed man, also the Envoy broke the silence.

"Pardon my rudeness Lady Bernadette." giving a sincere bow he said letting the trickling sweats fall off his forehead.

’Ehn?’

"It’s all good"

At first speechless, Bernadette replied with a composed cold look on her face.

’What was that Aura?’ not only her, but also every other person apart from the two guests had similar thoughts as her.

Perhaps because the suppressive force of the aura had subconsciously eluded them they hadn’t experienced its terror.

’What a scene’

"Here is our second candidate"

Suddenly Lilian whose presence had been as elusive as it could, revealed a dazzling smile.

Roughing his hair a bit, Andrew walked in, attracting the attention of everyone present.

His blonde hair, finely toned skin, handsome face.. infact there was something unknown about his appearance that simply attracted the eyes of the crowd..

Then Finn witnessed something spectacular, Ava’s cold face melted as slight lush of pink came up her cheeks.

Not wanting to attract attention, which he already did, he found a spot beside the side characters of today and stood.

"Him?". Then he heard the cold voice of the middle aged man who stood before Bernadette in a Purple robe.

"Yes" instead of Bernadette Lilian answered walking to stand side by side with her.

Whilst Andrew watched in anticipation.

It was then the man seemed to have noticed her, his eyes slightly widened, lost in awe and speechlessness for a second, he regained his composure.

’A beautiful milf not less than the other.’ being as careful as her could with his thought.

He bowed slightly for an unknown reason, having been too polite since the aura passed over.

"Who might Lady be?" He asked.

Pausing for a moment she gazed down at the man before replying....

"Lilian"

"Ah, pardon my ignorance Lady Lilian... thanks for the enlightenment." he said in a courteous manner, not showing a trace of arrogance in his voice.

"Sure"

"This is Andrew my son and this is Ava my stepdaughter... Do you have any problem with that?" Her voice was suddenly colder than usual, even her temperament had undergone a huge change.

And shocking everyone present, the Envoy responded in a subservient manner.

"No ma’am"

Silence...

"Ehhn?" the man sharply raised his head up as if he made a blunder with his previous statement, shocked by what he had said.

Not only him, Bernadette turned to Lilian with a smile of interest that turned into a grin afterwards, as if she was holding back a laugh.

Whilst Finn who was suddenly kicked to the background after Andrew’s appearance also stared at the middle aged man in surprise.

Unfortunately or fortunately for him, he heard right.

He stared at the women in shock with as a feeling of being wronged washed over him. Everything that had happened so far quickly unfolded in his head.

They were from the Empire for fuck sake, their presence in Low level Kingdoms was supposed to be like gods decent, where every aristocrat family was supposed to come kissing their shoes and offer their daughters to them. Yet, the Envoy who was supposed to back him up acted subservient. Though they were the new Dragondale’s wives as long as they were not acknowledged by the House, they were same with every other random woman out there.

Apart from that, there was the aura that even surpassed that of the Sky Rank Mystic that focused on them.

But still that wasn’t enough for the Envoy, Albus to throw his pride, pleasing women that he planned to fuck. He had the Empire as his backing, after all they sent him here. Letting their Envoy die without a valid reason wasn’t something that even an Earth Rank Mystic could take.

Still continued watching, Ava’s presence didn’t matter anymore.

"Ehn?" Even the Envoy seemed surprised by his own words, his face wrigled to a frown with suppressed anger, letting his aura and arrogance flare.

"What did you do to me?" His voice reverberating as if to show how angry he was at his pride being bruised.

There was silence...

Lilian’s eyes turned colder, her look of disdain even more evident than it had been before.

"How dare a spawn like you glare at my son in such manner?" as she said this, the atmosphere in the room started dropping.

" Ehhn?" Feeling his anger boil at the word spawn, the Envoy couldn’t help pausing as he thought back to his disdaining glare at Andrew when he arrived. It very well hidden.

" Him?" when he had questioned if Andrew was the second candidate.

But still he couldn’t take it that she called him a pawn.

’Her son?’

Every one thought the Envoy would attack, but then, he stopped to cast Andrew a dubious look.

Apart from his blonde hair and extremely handsome face there was nothing really outstanding about the youth for his mother to react like he had blasphemed some kind of god.

Should he apologize? No.

"You... his aura peaked like he was about to activate his ability, only resume another pause.

"Blonde hair?" he muttered beneath his breath but everyone could probably heard it.

And sure, his eyes darted at Lilian, her blonde hair draped behind her.

His eyes darted left to where Ava and co stood, only for his eyes to widen as it settled on Aria.

Blonde hair color, normal eyes, no manifestation.

"She is...

It was if his legs were cut off and replace with sticks.

Almost giving up, the Envoy who looked like he was about to attack, turned mute

Gave a short bow and dismissed his Aura.

"Pardon this spawn was ignorant and negligent..."

Then turning towards Andrew he gave another short bow.... "Pardon My Prince..."

Silence...

Leaving everyone confused, the Envoy summoned his spirit beast that appeared outside the castle, seemingly in a hurry to leave.

Sure enough the Dragondale wouldn’t have married ordinary women to pass time.

Finn watched with in silence, stunned was an understatement to how he currently felt.

’Did the woman have a second identity?’

Glancing at Lilian his eyes wandered around her face not daring to roam around her body..

But noticed nothing special about her..

"My Ladies, I would be back to pick up the candidate, it happens that there are other appointments to pick up selected candidate from other Kingdoms."

"Hmmm" Lilian’s eyes were cold, giving a nod she stared down at the purple eyed man in disdain.

’Fuck thiss, this isn’t a place of ignorant backwater fools. Even someone from a High Level Kingdom is here. Why was I fucking sent here.’

With a swift jump, he appeared beside Finn and grabbed the clueless youth before disappearing, at least for those at the Mystic Rank and lower, this was what it appeared like.

Wusssh!

Afterwards the whooshing sound of the wind was heard, signifying the departure of both guests.

’This... is interesting.’ staring at his mother in awe, Andrew thought.

Sure enough there was something special about this family.
