Inhuman Warlock-Chapter 973 : Tradition
The room in the Palace was of great quality and had everything that a person could need. It was certainly much better and more spacious than the rooms that he used in the Star Ships.
However, Lucifer didn't think about the rooms. For now, he was more concerned about the Seven Fragments. He had all seven fragments, and all he needed was to open the portal, but he didn't have the opportunity.
He was like the kid who had a precious toy, but he couldn't bring it out, or it was going to be stolen.
"I need to find some time to shake them off in the future. I can go to earth and open the portal there, but I'm not sure if it'll attract the attention of the Star Alliance. The last time the portal was opened, it didn't attract their attention, but the last time, the Star Alliance didn't even know that a world like that existed.
Thanks to him, the Star Alliance not only knew about him but they also assigned some monitoring teams on earth. He wasn't sure if the outcome was still going to be the same as before this time. There was a higher chance of being discovered this time if he did that.
Moreover, the last time the portal couldn't be opened entirely before it was closed by his Father. The energy signature of a partially opened portal was certainly going to be less than the energy signature of a completely open portal, and that too by a large margin.
Throughout his time in his room, he didn't sleep and kept trying to think of a way. He only came out of his thoughts after he heard the knock on the door.
A servant had brought some clothes for Lucifer to change into for the Royal Feast. The Royal Clothes he was provided were very fancy and not as subtle as the attire of the Star Alliance.
Still, Lucifer changed into the new clothes. The clothes certainly weren't of bad quality. If anything, they were more comfortable than the Star Alliance attire. The only difference was that the clothes didn't provide as much defense as the Star Alliance attire.
Then again, Lucifer didn't need defense for a feast. Even if he needed, his body was his biggest weapon.
He changed into the new attire. After half an hour, he heard another knock on his door.
On opening the door, he found the two Generals standing outside the door. They had also changed into a new attire that suited them.
Behind them, Lucifer noticed Raayi, who was hiding behind her grandfather. He couldn't help but move aside to have a clear view of her, wondering why she was hiding.
As Lucifer saw Raayi, he noticed that she was wearing a beautiful red gown.
"You look good in it," he complimented, thinking that she was uneasy and that's why hiding. To increase her confidence, he could only compliment.
"Hahaha, of course, she does! She's my granddaughter after all! Not like someone's grandson who is a brute!" General Nimel laughed, slightly taunting General Ostrin.
"You're a brute! Your entire family is a brute!" General Ostrin fired back.
Seeing the two bickering like kids, Lucifer couldn't help but smile. Who would've thought that the Two Generals who stood at the peak of the Star Alliance could actually argue like kids.
"Shall we go?" he asked, intervening in their battles.
The Two Generals finally stopped fighting.
The two Generals walked behind Lucifer and Raayi. Around the same time, General Nimel had an idea that brought a smile to his lips.
He stepped forward and whispered something in Lucifer's ears.
"Eh?" Lucifer was quite surprised to hear what the old man said. "Really?"
"Of course." General Nimel nodded.
In the back, General Ostrin wondered what the old man said to Lucifer.
"What did you tell him?" he asked.
General Nimel smirked but didn't say anything.
Lucifer was still surprised at what he heard, but eventually, he did something. He reached out his hand and held Raayi's hands.
"Ehh?" Raayi was taken aback. Lucifer had suddenly held her hands! It was the first time someone held her hands who wasn't her family. But why was he doing it?
She was quite surprised, but she didn't dislike it. His hands felt so warm to her.
In the back, the old man's grin widened.
"What did you do?" General Ostrin asked again.
General Nimel finally decided to tell. "I told Lucifer that it's a tradition for someone who is attending a feast for the first time to enter while holding a girl's hands."
"You!" General Ostrin was quite taken aback by the shamelessness of General Nimel. To bring his granddaughter and Lucifer together, he was willing to be so sneaky?
Still, despite being frustrated, he didn't expose those lies. Sooner or later, Lucifer had to marry a person. Even though he wasn't particularly fond of General Nimel, he still knew that Raayi was a good and talented girl.
He was happy with the happiness of the two youngsters.
Lucifer entered the Royal hall where the beast was arranged. His entrance also attracted a lot of attention since the two Generals were walking behind him.
Ron watched Lucifer enter while holding Raayi's hands. He could only smile. "Looks like you really didn't need my help."
The Royal Hall was already filled, and everyone was waiting for the main guests to arrive. Now that the guests had arrived, everyone stood up to greet the Two Generals.
The Ostrin Clan had invited quite a few main family members to this celebration, along with some influential people of this world who were responsible for protecting it!
It wasn't a small deal that two Generals were in a place together after all. These two Generals possessed so much strength that they could quickly destroy a few worlds without even breaking a sweat. No one dared to disrespect them, especially since one of them was the Ancestor of the Ostrin Clan.
"Greetings to the Ancestors!"
