971 It won't be fun if I reveal everything, now will it?
"Greetings, Lord Alaric. I apologize in my father's stead, he has suffered fatal injuries from his recent battle so I, as his Successor, came in his stead."
Rune bowed her head and greeted respectfully.
"You are Oberon's daughter…" Arion muttered as he glanced at Rune.
"That I correct, I am Rune Feline, the Successor of the Feline Cat City. Greetings, Lord Arion." Rune bowed her head again as she introduced herself.
"I heard about your City's fight with Skythorn Eagle City. Has the matter resolved peacefully?" Arion questioned.
The Beastmen were known to be a very united race.
They are protective of their own and do not fight amongst themselves. However, this didn't mean the fight didn't 2 Beastmen City didn't happen at all, they were rare, yes, however, if the two Beastmen City had a bad relationship, the chances that it will be solved peacefully are very low.
The Beastmen tend to give their all, whether it was friendship or enmity.
Honestly, the matter between the two cities could be said to have been solved peacefully since only a few people died.
Of course, that was a different thing that one of the people who died was a rare Divine Stage Cultivator. Just that alone is enough to affect Beastmen's overall strength.
Arion, as the City Lord of the Strongest Beastmen City, and the head of the Beastmen Alliance, had to look into this incident, so he knew you about Rune.
"I heard you were the one who played a major role in this incident and changed the entire course of the battle."
"I was supported by my people, Lord Arion," Rune replied humbly.
A satisfied smile appeared on Arion's face as he continuously nodded his head.
"Good Good! I like your attitude, I have high hopes for the Feline Cat City."
"I am grateful, Lord Arion."
"Hm Hm, anyways, how do you know the Groom?" Arion questioned with a curious smile on his face.
"I met him and his wives through a coincident and we got close," Rune replied.
Honestly, she didn't wish to come here since she didn't wish to expose her relationship with Nux and his wives. She feared that it would put a target on their back, however, Amaya simply said that they were already organizing such a large-scale event, the defeated Falconkin wouldn't be able to do anything and convinced her to come.
Rune, however, still didn't give much detail about her relationship with Nux and his wives.
Well, not that she needed to do it, she had already unknowingly dropped a big bomb already.
"He and his wives…?"
Arcturus was the first one to react. He glanced at Alaric and Orpheus with a surprised look on his face and,
"The man who is marrying Melia is already married…?"
The other leaders were taken aback as well.
One must know, the Bloodhearts were one of the strongest powers in the world, even the top 5 Demon States weren't their match if they fought individually, and with them being directly related to Alaric Sky, the Vampire King, things were even different.
Melia Bloodheart wasn't just the princess of the Bloodheart House, she was also the niece of the Vampire King, for her to me in a polygamous relationship…
"What is the identity of the Groom?" Arcturus couldn't help but question. He was just too curious.
And he wasn't alone, a Young Dragon standing right behind him was the same, the moment his father talked about the identity of the Groom, his ears perked up.
He wanted to know just who was the man who could convince Orpheus and Alaric and marry Melia even though he had other wives.
Other people present here had the same question in their minds, they all were looking at Alaric, waiting for the reveal, and with a playful smile on his face, Alaric dropped the bomb,
"He is not someone you guys would know. He is a Human Emperor Stage Cultivator, and the Leader of a newly created Clan."
"!!!"
The leaders widened their eyes in shock.
"Y-You… Are you crazy!? Why would you allow your daughter to marry a man like that!? And in an Interracial Marriage at that!? I would have understood if he was one of the Seven Heroes but just a random Emperor Stage Cultivator!? Not to mention he is already married!" Pyrax spoke as he glanced at Orpheus.
Heck, even the Human Emperors were taken aback,
'A human managed to woo the daughter of Orpheus Bloodheart? Do you two know who that boy is?' Argus used Mana to contact the other two Human Emperors and questioned.
'I do not.' Aurelian shook her head. Draven was the same.
The three Emperors narrowed their eyes.
Since none of them knew that man, it was obvious that one of them was hiding something. The three Emperors quickly became wary of each other.
"The Bloodhearts have never restricted our children to marrying someone for political reasons, we regard marriage as a sacred bond and allow our children to choose who they form this bond with.
My daughter chose that man, I, as her father, will support her decision."
Orpheus replied with a calm look on his face.
However,
Alaric just smiled,
"Oh C'mon, you are making it sound like you are allowing this marriage only because your daughter is forcing you to.
Do you still plan on hiding your son-in-law from the rest of the world? Tsk, if my daughter had come to me wanting to marry that man, I would have agreed as well."
"What do you mean?" Arcturus questioned with a frown on his face.
"That Human is anything but normal. I have met him myself and I can tell you this right now, that boy has a bright future ahead of him."
Alaric replied.
"Stop talking in such a roundabout way. Explain yourself clearly." Arcturus spoke in an annoyed tone.
Alaric, however, just smiled.
"Didn't I arrange a 2-week Event before marriage?
I am sure some of the children here are dying to participate in that event.
So just be patient and wait for it.
It won't be fun if I reveal everything, now will it?"
Alaric smiled playfully and with those words, he had successfully diverted the attention of all the leaders of the world to the 'Groom'.
A 'Groom' who was about to return after his 5-month-
long training.
