Party

Noel took Yerenika's advice. So he calmed down the nobles who were beginning to react to Curtis' departure to the Northern territories.

"I know what you want. But we still can't afford the worst if Chief Curtis gets angry."

Noel's words again silenced the uproar among the nobles.

"How about we ask the witch for help? I heard that she solved the monster problem yesterday."

Noel laughed at the opinion of the finance minister, Jacop. "If the witch can deal with them then the magic tower won't be destroyed, even the current head witch is running away from Commander Curtis. "

Jacob was silent.

Noel let out a long sigh. "The witches can indeed restore the broken seal. But their combat power is in no way comparable to that of a werewolf. "

Everyone knew that. The news of the fall of the magic tower, which was one of the sources of power of the Sinclair kingdom, fell in one night because of Curtis. Of course the nobles wanted to help, but when they found out that the opponents were Arta's soldiers, their guts shrank.

"Then are we going to continue like this?" asked Minister Eros.

"I'm sure Swana will do something. Like I said yesterday, let's wait until the situation is conducive. "

This time there was no more debate. The nobles began to disperse after Noel came out. That man felt like his head was spinning because of this matter.

'Why can they only complain? They should be grateful that there are no national problems. There are no financial problems or people starving. Instead, they're protesting because of the power holders,' Noel grumbled to himself.

Well, ever since he assumed Swana's delegated power, Noel had been grumbling to himself. He began to admire Swana's patience with the nobles and their protests.

"Are you feeling dizzy, Noel?" Yerenika appeared suddenly.

Her sister looked beautiful and made Noel start to feel calm.

"Ah, I'm glad you came to see me first," Noel greeted.

Yerenika had a gentle beauty and grace. Noel even marveled at his sister's stature. Whoever got her must be very lucky.

Noel began to realize that the girls in his family's bloodline had different beauties. Just look at Yerenika, she has a delicate beauty, Swana is so enchanting it's almost unreal, her mother and Swana's mother also have famous beauty.

'Will I also have a wife like them?' Noel asked himself.

He shook her head to dismiss the thought. It was not the time to think about marriage. He was sure that if he ascended the throne then the nobles would scramble to introduce their daughters.

The night of Yerenika's debut and coming-of-age party finally arrived. The nobles who were depressed and did not dare to hold a party, as long as there was Curtis, were very happy. The party that Noel organized was like rain in the desert.

Of course they were having fun at a party that had not been held for a long time. They were seen laughing and forgetting about their royal troubles for a while.

"Prince Noel and Princess Yerenika have arrived!"

The royals immediately lined up and saluted. Noel and Yerenika walked up and went straight to the seats that King Damian and Swana used to sit on.

However, Noel shifted and chose to sit in the queen's seat. Which caused whispers from the nobles.

"A wise move, Noel," praised Yerenika. She also sat on the same seat as Noel.

The nobles and their sons began to scramble to dance with Yerenika. As Noel had predicted, his sister would become an idol.

Unfortunately, he is still not willing to let his sister be owned by another man.

Just as he was lost in his reverie while watching Yerenika dance beautifully, the royal guard announced the arrival of Swana and Curtis.

"Her Majesty the Queen and Commander Curtis have arrived!"

All the nobles were shocked. Including Noel and Yerenika. They immediately stood up and bowed respectfully.

Swana and Curtis walked with grace and elegance towards the king and queen seats. No one dared to straighten up before Curtis' command.

"Stand up."

Everyone stood up immediately. Then began to wonder why Swana and Curtis had come.

"Congratulations on your maturity Yerenika," Swana said.

She stood forward, her eyes sweeping over everyone present. "And I'm here to tell you that one week from today, Prince Noel will assume the duties of emperor of the Sinclair Kingdom. Prince Noel will be the eight-thirtieth emperor of Sinclair."

The royal hall became silent. No one made a sound or moved. Swana's announcement was so unexpected. It left them with empty minds.

Swana knew that everyone was surprised. But she had no obligation to explain her wishes. As long as Curtis agreed, anything could happen.

"You guys, keep the music going. Let my cousin's coming-of-age party go with a bang!" Swana ordered excitedly.

The musicians immediately started playing the music. This brought the nobles and guests to their senses. Then they joined the party. Of course they were happy because their wish for Noel to ascend the throne would be realized.

"Swana!" Called Yerenika. She hugged Swana. Her smile widened and she looked happy.

"I am glad you came."

"Of course I will. Now get on with the party and dance."

"Of course. But I want to dance with your husband. I want to know what it's like to dance with the ruler of the battlefield," Yerenika said.

Swana raised her eyebrows. It seemed that Yerenika wanted to conquer Curtis' savagery.

"If you can get him to dance, go ahead," said Swana.

The curious Yerenika approached Curtis. I don't know what conversation took place between her and Curtis. Only, Yerenika returned with a sullen face.

"Your husband is an ice sculpture. Really cold and heartless," Yerenika grumbled.

Swana laughed amusedly, since she and Curtis were together, nothing could make Curtis dance. He didn't even bother to look after the feelings of the girl who asked him to dance.

"That's my husband."
