Chapter 223: A Social Event XII

{I wanted to let everyone know that I have a p-a-t-r-e-o-n with two new exclusive stories on it. One is The Aeternus Universe, and the other is a new story with a basketball system. I hope you guys will give it a chance. The link is /easyread. Remove the dashes. Webnovel censors the word.}

Sally and I finish our tea and sweets. The butlers take them away, and we sit in silence. "Let's go inside and relax on actually cushioned furniture." She stands up alongside me, and we make our way to the mansion and through the beautiful garden. We walk on the stone path out and towards the mansion. The guards get very stiff as I pass. The truth about me being here is now known. I can assume that Amelia's identity as my mother is also known too. She is going to have newfound respect from others. The church will definitely contact her about things too.

As Cera and Sally walk into the mansion to find a comfortable place to rest. There are people all over Zenith talking about the events that have transpired today. One of these people being King Jackson and his blushing bride-to-be. They are in their palace, away from all the noise from the common people and the nobles, demanding answers about why this has happened. Why this secret about the new noblewoman was kept a secret. They sit in private chambers, looking at each other. One more angry than the other.

I look at my soon-to-be bride and see her displeasure with me. I never did inform her about any of my connections with Slayer Zern or Amelia Zern. She has her arms crossed as she glares into the depths of my soul. "How long have you know about Amelia and Slayer Zern's connection?" There is a predatory undertone in her voice. I'd don't know if I told her or not. The fear for my life is outweighing the promise the always tell her everything. She knows that this is a special circumstance, right? RIGHT!?

I fidget in my seat and turn my eyes from her. She releases a mean growl. That's when I decide to be honest. "I've known about him ever since I first met him in Blue Grass City when I was still a Baron." She looks at me, knowing that isn't the full story. "The accident in the palace was because of him. He got his wings that night. He told me about his mother, and if I wanted to have a connection with him, it was to be making his mother a noble." I see her look at me, seeing if I'm hiding anything else. Those are the major ones I've withheld.

She stands up and walks over to a table. I watch her ball her fist in anger and smash the table. She continues to stomp it into pieces, and I can't help but cringe in mortal fear. After she is done, she takes a breath. "That's much better." She wipes the sweat off her face and turns to me with a gentle expression. "You'd at least tell me he's coming to our wedding. There's no way he has time for that." I look down. I haven't informed her that he's coming yet. I wanted it to be a surprise. I lift my eyes from the ground, and I see her darkening expression.

I stand up and hold my hands out before she can even start her approach. "It was meant to be a surprise! Amelia is coming to the wedding, and I wanted to check up on her one last time before tomorrow! I never expected Zern to be there! It was a spur-of-the-moment decision! I'm so sorry!!" She quickly flexes her fingers, and they pop from the force. I look into her eyes, and I don't see my darling fiance anymore. I back up in fear as she slowly approaches. I fall back onto the couch, and I look up at her as she stands over me.

She has a neutral face and hollow eyes. "You're telling me. That you dropped a last-minute wedding invitation. On The Son of Arch-Angel Michael, and didn't think about the repercussions." Technically he never accepted. His mother did. She doesn't need to know that, though. "Is that right?" I freeze, realizing my mistake. She can read my thoughts when in close proximity, and I can hers. "We need to have a discussion about the wedding. It needs to be even bigger and better with such a guest. Is That. Clear." I nod my head, knowing that this is the only way to appease my fiance.

The rest of the day passes, and the night rests upon Gaia. Many wonder what the integration of new people means to the powerbase. Many high-ranking officials are in protest, but there is nothing they can do about it. The night slowly passes as everyone around Gaia either sleeps or gets up to no good. Soon the sun is rising on the world, and everyone is getting up, including Cera and Sally. Not only are they getting up, but everyone in Zenith is getting an early rise. Since today is King Jackson and his bride's wedding, there is a pep in everyone's step.

I stretch my body out and feel the soft feeling of the bed on my skin. I roll to my side, and Sally is sleeping next to me. We were given some of the comfiest pajamas I've ever been in. Handcrafted and everything. I'm the first to get out of bed, and I pop my back as I stand up. I make my way to the personal bathroom attached to this room, and I quickly fill the tub. I unequip my current clothes, and I sink my body into the magical water. I'm going to miss this after today, probably going to be the only time I get to do it again. I pull up my stats to add something to the mundaneness.

Ever since I completed that legendary quest, I haven't gotten a chance to try out my new power skills. They have leveled up, and with them, they have new information. I individually pull up information and see the changes to the skills I use the most. I pull up Sally's quest now.

[Sally's Past]

[Description: Help Sally in her quest for vengeance against all the men that tortured and sexually assaulted her growing up. Help her punish the Elven Kingdom for their ways.]

[Objective 1: When the time comes, Sally will ask you for your direct help in this matter.][Completed]

[Objective 2: Once everything is done with your quest involving the Dryads, ask Sally what the first step in her revenge is.][Completed]

[Objective 3: Head to the Barony of James in the kingdom of Pleer][In progress]

[Rewards: Unknown]

[Difficulty: Legendary]

[Note: The great difficulty of this quest is the goals that Sally has set in revenge. If they weren't so great, then the difficulty wouldn't be so high.]

As I planned before, I'm going to use the party to ask nobles about the kingdom of Pleer. I notice that I still have 1000 stat points to use too. I decide to pour all 1000 into speed. It's becoming my favorite stat.
