Weight of the position.
"His Majesty has requested your imdiate presence." The armoured guard announced.
Aurelion knew that this ant his father has beco known to his mischief and ant severe business.
Aurelion turned back to Selene. "Mother, I will et you after explaining the situation to father."
Then, leaned towards Lyra. "Lyra, I’ll be back soon. Tell hans to cater these two for till then and provide them with accommodation and so new clothes."
Hans was butler of Aurelion’s chambers. He was the one who took care of what was lacking or needed to his palace and was also the one who was the incharge of the maids and the rest of the staff. He was the one responsible for new recruitnt and disbursent of salary to the staff.
Mira who woke up just now finally ca down to ground from Lyra’s arms.
Lyra tapped on Rowan’s shoulder, then held Mira’s hand and guided both of them towards the staff quarters.
They left the fountain garden.
Aurelion who watched them leave from there, finally turned back and went for the Royal chambers with the guard’s company.
Selene who was watching all of this was still there with the maids and various items they brought.
"Hmm, there is really nothing interesting left for to eat." Selene expression her displeasure.
"Your Majesty, if you want to try sothing sweet or sour, I shall inform the Head Chef right now or invite the best confectioners throughout the continent." The Head maid replied with a stern look.
"Well, it would not really matter, we already are the best in the continent whether it is about delicacies or might. So, calling them would be just a waste. I wish the Head Chef invents a new dish faster."
"I shall inform the head chef about your wishes with utmost priority, Your Majesty."
The head maid answered.
Then, suddenly Selene realized that she forgot to inform Aurelion about sothing of great importance.
"Oh my, I forgot to tell little moon about it. What should I do now?" Selene said while putting the back of her hand under her chin supporting it.
"Silly , Tee-hee." She said while lightly punching the back of her head.
~Author - this line made rember paimon for so reason. Also, Selene you are the cutest.
"Well, I am sure my Darling will tell him." Selene finished.
ANWHILE—
Aurelion strolling along the guard, was walking towards the entrance of the royal chamber. A place different from the Royal court where everyone who had sothing to appeal could enter.
This was different.
This place permitted entrance to only the select few and was designed for the Emperor to discuss matters with only his most trusted. Even high rank nobles could not enter this place.
Aurelion finally reached to the end of the hallway.
There was a huge Gate made up of strong Iron and bronze in front of him. The Guard who had been accompanying him all this ti stopped a few steps prior to the gate and then kneeled on one knee.
"Your Majesty is waiting for you, I can only keep you company till here." The guard said.
"Understood, you are dismissed" Aurelion replied.
He touched the door to push it open but it opened on it’s own. A srizing ared carpet followed the path as if it was carving which way the person was supposed to go. That was not all, The pillars in the chambers itself were made up of gold, the ceiling had gemstones embedded in it and the floor was a refined marble.
This was not the first ti Aurelion ca here, he had been here before in his mother’s lap but this was the first ti he was officially summoned here.
In this huge chamber, Aurelion finally looked in front where the carpet ended.
His Father Emperor Aurex Valerius was sitting on a mighty throne which had swords stabbed into it in such a refined manner that they made the throne.
His uncle Duke Lunaris was also present there who was standing right side of the red carpet but nearer to the throne.
"Greetings, Uncle Caelion. How have you been?" Aurelion greeted.
"It’s been such a long ti, dear nephew. How is your mana training going?" Lunaris replies with a smile.
"It’s been good, thanks to you sending such capable instructors and Teacher Velorian’s teaching." Aurelion smiles back.
"Our Crown Prince has learned flattery at such a young age. You have beco a full fletched Aristocrat. I am sure you will beco an Archm—"
*Cough* *Cough*
Aurex cuts Caelion in his sentence.
"The Royalty does not need to care about cheap practices like flattery, the retainers are the one who should worry about it."
Duke Lunaris does not add anything instead he just gave an amusing smile.
"Greetings Father, I was told that you wished for my presence. Aurelion shifts his focus.
" Your Childish tricks and mischiefs have ca to my ear."
"Such Undignified behavior does not suit a Crown Prince at all." Aurex said sternly.
"Well, Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is still only a child. I’m sure he will beco more mature as he grows." Caelion tries to defend Aurelion.
"Immaturity can not be excused because of Age. He is the Crown Prince so, he should also understand the weight of that position."
"Especially when —"
ESPECIALLY WHEN WHAT?
Aurelion thought.
