Chapter 674 Shocking Turn Of Events

After witnessing the battle between Ethan and the Ratmen, the Elves of the Mangrave Forest, the Royals and other dignitaries of the Thormguard Kingdom, the Skogarholm Knigdom, and the Wallenbirg Kingdom, all joined this momentous event, making King Baldur extremely happy.

During the past months, these four factions had decided to form an alliance, which would ensure that their Kingdoms would grow and prosper.

Of course, the Ratmen were also invited to this event, and Keznir would be there to represent their race.

The Kings were more than happy to form a strong connection with the Ratmen because they were afraid that they might decide to attack them in the future.

The Cloudwall Mountains were now the Ratmen’s territory, and none of them wanted to poke this hornet’s nest, which could potentially trigger a calamity.

Also, Ethan made sure to tell everyone that the Ratmen were now his direct subordinates, making them all the more eager to form ties with them.

On the day of the party, Joanne wore the most beautiful clothes in her private collection because she wanted to outshine all the Princesses, and the Noble Ladies at the party.

Of course, she also forced—errr made Princess Ramona wear one of her dresses as well, so that she would catch the attention of everyone.

Ethan chose to wear the Ceremonial Knight Clothes that were given to him by the Wisteria Royal Family when he became an Honorary Knight.

Among Ethans’ clothes, it was the most apt for this occasion and it highlighted his good looks further.

“You look very beautiful in that dress, Joanne,” Ethan praised his sister before shifting his attention to Princess Ramona. “You look very stunning, Princess. I’m sure that you will be the star of the party.”

“Impossible.” Princess Ramona shook her head. “How can I stand out when you and Joanne are there?”

“I can already imagine the long line of ladies who will want to talk to you tonight. I wouldn’t be surprised if Joanne were to receive many marriage proposals as well.”

“Hmph! Why would I be interested in marrying any of those monkeys?” Joanne crossed her arms over her chest. “They lack the qualities that I desire in men.”

“And, what are the qualities that you are looking for?” Princess Ramona asked with genuine curiosity.

“Someone who can beat this guy.” Joanne pointed at her brother with a smug-look on her face.

“… You’re setting the bar too high,” Princess Ramona commented. “But, I can understand. Anyone who is not at Ethan’s level is not good enough.”

“I know, right?”

“Mmm.”

Ethan looked at the two girls in amusement before making a gesture for them to hold on to his arms.

The two glanced at each other and nodded their heads with a smile.

They allowed the Tidebringer to escort them to the Event Hall, where everyone was already waiting for their arrival.

The moment the guards saw them, they immediately announced their names, making everyone look in the direction of the main entrance.

“Princess Ramona Von Magdar!”

“Lady Joanne Valentin!”

“His Excellency, The Tidebringer!”

As soon as Ethan, and the two beautiful girls, who were holding onto his arms entered the hall, a thundering applause greeted them, making the smile on Joanne’s face widen.

She liked it when people treated her like a VIP and, since her brother was the Tidebringer, that made her the Super VIP of the Magdar Kingdom.

Ethan, who had no idea what his sister was thinking, walked with confident steps until he arrived at the table where King Baldur and the other Kings and Queens of their alliance were seated.

“It is an honor to finally meet you, Your Excellency,” the King of the Thormguard Kingdom, King Vernon said with a smile.

“I feel the same way, King Vernon,” Ethan replied as he shook hands with the King.

“It is also my honor to be in your presence, Your Excellency,” the King of Skogarholm Kingdom, King Raul commented.

Last, but not the least, the King of the Wallenbirg Kingdom, King Harold, also greeted Ethan.

“Thank you for keeping the Lands of Alastor safe from harm, Your Excellency,” King Harold stated. “Without you, I’m afraid that this land would have ended up engulfed in war, and we would be living everyday in fear, not knowing when our enemies would come bearing down on our gates.”

The Kings looked at King Harold and cursed him internally for being a good flatterer, which they wished they had done as well.

Queen Helewynn looked amused because he found these Human traits quite interesting.

Suddenly, Keznir, who was the King of the Ratmen, rose from Ethan’s shadow, almost making the three King’s jump in fright.

“Your Excellency.” King Keznir nodded his head in greeting, which Ethan replied with a nod of satisfaction.

“At ease, everyone,” Ethan said. “Keznir is my subordinate, so he won’t threaten any of your Domains, unless of course, you threatened his Domain first.”

“Hahaha! That’s not going to happen, Your Excellency,” King Vernon replied.

“True, we are all friends here.” King Raul smiled.

“All of us are going to be partners from now on,” King Harold commented. “This is truly a wondrous moment.”

King Baldur and Queen Helewynn, who had already had a good relationship in the past, exchanged a knowing glance with each other.

They were also happy that an alliance between the different Kingdoms had been formed, which would truly bring in an era of peace, and prosperity to their lands.

When everyone was seated, King Baldur clapped his hands, and the performers for the night started their performances.

Just like Princess Ramona had expected, the Royal Princesses of the different Kingdoms had tried to get her attention, but her best friend remained aloof and treated those who were trying to get her attention like air.

The Kings and Ethan had a lively discussion as they ate, and talked about future projects that would make their Kingdoms prosper.

Finally, after two hours had passed, King Baldur once again caught everyone’s attention and announced who would succeed his position.

“Everyone, after many months of deliberation, I have finally made my decision,” King Baldur declared. “Tonight, I hereby declare Princess Ramona to be the next Queen of the Magdar Kingdom!”

The corner of Joanne’s lips curled up because she had pulled some strings in the background to make sure that this would happen.

Ethan was not surprised by the King’s decision because he knew that picking Princess Ramona would ensure that the Tidebringer and the Magdar Kingdom would have an unbreakable relationship.

However, before everyone could congratulate the young lady, the Princess stood up and made an announcement.

“Thank you Father, but I respectfully decline your appointment,” Princess Ramona said, making everyone, including Ethan and Joanne, look at the young lady in disbelief.

The two of them thought that this was the Princess’ dream, so they supported her candidacy, and helped her in their own way.

But now, after getting what she wanted, she decided that she didn’t want it anymore, and simply looked at her father, with a determined look on her face.

“I can’t be the Queen of this Kingdom because that would require me to give birth and continue the royal line,” Princess Ramona said.

“I’m afraid that I can’t do that because I don’t want to marry anyone. From now on, I will dedicate myself to being the Priestess of the Temple of the Tidebringer, which will become this Kingdom’s main religion.

“Since almost everyone in the Lands of Alastor worship him, I think it is about time to give him a proper temple, which his followers can visit in order to pay homage to him.”

The Princess looked at her father with determination, making the latter understand that she was dead serious in her decision to not claim the throne of the Magdar Kingdom.
