"Your Highness, the Princess is too kind. He often ntions you to as well. It is indeed an honor to et you."
Facing the forr Guardians of the Human World, Ariel Watson, who already possesses the deanor of a queen, handles the situation with ease and soon becos acquainted with the other party.
"Alright, now that everyone is here, let's get started."
Leo Ray smiles faintly and steps forward once more.
In the spacious and bright banquet hall, a group of maids and attendants are nervously in position, ready for the reception.
Just like Barbara and others, they are carefully selected from descendants and relatives of civilian and military officials who have always accompanied Leo Ray, mostly from the Grimm Kingdom, with so elites from various nations recomnded for supporting the reconstruction of the Temple of Light.
As nobles themselves, they naturally understand the weight of this banquet.
Participating in this banquet are the kings representing the peak of authority of the Seven Human Nations. Moreover, there are leaders of the three major neutral organizations, which transcend these nations.
Most importantly, there is the revered Savior of Humanity, His Royal Highness the Holy Lion Prince!
As for the top generals and national-level powerhouses attending, they are countless.
In other words, this banquet gathers the most esteed power brokers and elites of the Human World. Every individual here is indeed a titan of power!
They will witness this historical and epic banquet and even serve these figures. What an honor and moving experience!
As the crowd's emotions surged, the doors of the banquet hall were pushed open, and the sound of uniform and heavy footsteps resonated.
Two rows of robust guards dressed in black heavy armor entered in perfect formation, standing on both sides of the red carpet, ready to welco guests.
Staring at the guards' black heavy armor emanating dazzling hues, the crowd couldn't help but express their amazent.
As nobles themselves, they could imdiately discern that this armor surpassed the Tier 4 Equipnt treasures considered by their elders and was actually Tier 5 National-level gear!
Amidst the amazed crowd, only Abigail and Alia, standing at the front, appeared composed, sharing knowing smiles.
This formidable heavy-armored honor guard is part of the Heavy Armor Guards Squad under the command of the Lord, tasked with the crucial role of Imperial Guards.
However, for the Lord, rich with powerful incentives, this Imperial Guard's symbolic significance far exceeds its practical importance, thus temporarily assigned here for honor guard duty.
Interestingly, the banquet's master of ceremonies is also a subordinate, none other than Baron Poli from the Sanders Family.
Once the Heavy Armor Guards collectively drew their ritual broadswords with golden engravings, Baron Poli, dressed in a black tailcoat, cleared his throat, marking the official start of the banquet's entry ceremony.
"His Majesty Lawrence of the Grimm Kingdom arrives!"
"Her Majesty Ariel Watson of the Coldfla Kingdom arrives!"
"Her Majesty Catherine of the Ironhand Archipelago arrives!"
"His Majesty Eckhart of the Verdant Kingdom arrives!"
"Her Majesty Cecilia of the Pars Empire arrives!"
"His Majesty Willie of the Saint Night Kingdom arrives!"
"Chairman Phil of the Orchid Federation arrives!
With Baron Poli's voice echoing, seven Human kings, each dressed either in a royal gown or distinctive luxurious clothing, slowly entered amidst their decorated civilian and military officials, making the atmosphere increasingly exuberant.
Their dazzling gold crowns and the banquet hall's opulent crystal tassel chandeliers intertwined, srizing onlookers with their brilliance.
The majestic deanor of the monarchs and their dignified gestures further entranced the welcoming crowd.
Particularly the expecting maids and attendants, their faces lit up with excitent, eyes fixed unblinkingly upon the monarchs atop the power pyramid.
Witnessing such a thrilling scene would be an everlasting honor and tale to recount for their lifetis!
Once the monarchs and accompanying officers completed their entrance, a resonating voice again filled the hall.
"Her Holiness, The Pope Sophia of the Temple of Light arrives!"
As Baron Poli's voice announced, Sophia's slender figure appeared at the entrance of the banquet hall.
Trailing her were high-ranking mbers of the Temple of Light, led by the venerable Bishop Lorenz, who contributed greatly in navigating everyone.
With the passage of ti, the elder bishop, imprisoned for a century, looked noticeably revitalized, his face radiant with health.
In addition, the distinct presence of Rosy Queen Ester and Sage King Ebner, along with Coldfla Monarchs and influential figures, were coordinated by Leo Ray to significantly aid Sophia in the Temple's reconstruction.
"Chairman Abner of the rcenary Guild arrives!"
This ti, the grinning Grey Elder naturally ca before the crowd.
Shadowing Grey Elder were familiar faces Diana and Lucas Duran.
"Chairman Yonir of the Alchemist Guild arrives!"
Once the smiling Yonir and fellow Alchemist Sages entered, the anticipation in the venue reached an apex.
Finally, making a grand entrance would be Leo Ray, the organizer of the banquet, surpassing the seven crowns and three neutral organizations.
Sincerely, Baron Poli, electrified with passion, even interspersed his proclamation with overtones: "Savior of the Human World, Master of Otherworldly Lords, Creator of Kings, Honorary Prince of Grimm Kingdom, Honorary Prince of Ironhand Archipelago, Honorary Prince of Verdant Kingdom, Honorary Prince of Pars Empire, Honorary Prince of Saint Night Kingdom, Honorary Supervisor of Orchid Federation, Holy Lion Prince of Coldfla Kingdom, Magic Grand Duke, Marquis of Galaxy City, Earl of Cyan Town, Viscount of Tale City, Baron of Magnet Town, Chief Honorary Knight of Coldfla Royal Family, Leo Ray enters!"
Outside the banquet hall, Leo Ray listened to the extensive list of titles and felt sowhat overwheld.
Unknowingly, as his steps extended further, these titles grew in number.
"Ah, young man, it is indeed you. This is the longest noble title I have ever heard."
Standing behind Leo Ray, Fei'er smirked and raised an eyebrow, suggesting, "If you like, I could add another title for you as Honorary Prince of Silver Fire Kingdom, being its forr first princess."
"Your Highness, Princess, please don't tease anymore."
Leo Ray laughed helplessly, nodded promptly, and added, "Alright, let's enter now."
Under the gaze of all present, Leo Ray's figure erged at the main entrance of the hall.
As Leo Ray entered, enthusiastic applause erupted, and nurous respectful glances followed suit.
Not only did the waiting attendants show their admiration, but even the previously entered monarchs of the seven countries and leaders of the three neutral organizations reciprocated the gesture, sincerely expressing their reverence for Leo Ray.
Following behind Leo Ray were Fei'er, Taylor, and key subordinates along with Little Jie and the Stone Spirits, each switching from their usual battle attire to exquisite and glamorous dresses.
Notably, aside from those currently advancing ranks, Leo Ray brought almost all subordinates above Tier 4, including the newly promoted Scarlett and Elder Bing.
Such a vast assembly of strong companions quickly drew waves of astonished exclamations.
In the midst of the fervent voices, the subordinates' exaltation and pride were self-evident, while Leo Ray, accompanied by Fei'er, proceeded toward the erected stage.
Noticing that Leo Ray intended to speak, the previously lively banquet hall promptly quieted down.
"Thank you all for attending this banquet. Before it begins, I wish to introduce soone to you all."
Leo Ray said this as he stepped back, presenting Fei'er, and continued, "That is Pelican Princess Faye of Silver Fire Kingdom."
As Leo Ray spoke, it imdiately stirred waves across the venue.
