EDEN; The Half Elves

Chapter 8_Waiting For Tomorrow

Eden noticed his reflection in the mirror, he then wore his crown which he had held from it. 9 medium-sized greenish gems, and a bright blue gem as the center. This signified his rank and position in the kingdom, Eden was the only descendant of the king and queen of Arashia. The king had five concubines, 6 adopted children and 3 biological children. To be honest Eden was the youngest child and favorite child of the king, the eight brothers of Eden always hated and became enemies of Eden because of this. With the exception of Princess Leony.

When he was just about to attend the banquet, Eden got the order to wear royal clothes along with his 9 brothers. Inevitably, he had to change his clothes again.

"Ryuu, I'll be right back. Don't be naughty and wander outside huh!?"

"Graaaww."

Eden stepped out of his room and walked towards the banquet hall, along the way he met some servants who were whispering about him. With the elven race's sense of hearing surpassing that of ordinary beings, Eden could clearly hear the whispers.

"Look, isn't that the noble prince of Eden!?"

"Right, it's been a long time since I've seen her wearing royal clothes. The descendants of the king and queen Arasyiah were completely different huh?"

"He would be proud to see the prince of Eden grow up and become handsome like this, what a pity......."

'Yeah, it's a pity. If only my mother were here.'Inner Eden heard the whisper of one of her servants.

After walking for a long time in the halls of the palace, Eden finally arrived also to the banquet hall. He stepped in and all the attention was immediately on him as the person who came last, Eden did not care about the gazes that led to him. He glanced at a large table where his entire family sat, then saluted.

"Pardon my delay, king. Something was holding me back."

"It's okay, it's okay. Come here, son."Calling the king, Eden stepped into an empty seat beside the king and sat there. The cynical look of his brothers and sisters really made Eden feel upset, the king then gave Eden a glass of wine that had been given the juice of Bimoli flowers while nodding his head.

"Dad thought you weren't coming, Eden."

The king's whisper slowly.

"I'm here, let's start the banquet immediately."Reply to Eden, receiving a glass of wine given by the king.

The king nodded his head again and stood up from his seat, holding up the wine glass he had held high, Hell approached and rang a bell to grab the attention of everyone who was there.

Hearing the sound of the bell, everyone immediately stopped their activities and turned their heads towards the king. Seeing that everything had calmed down, the king finally decided to speak.

"Consider this supper which we have prepared to the satisfaction of my children, then let us feast together and enjoy life before beginning our battle tomorrow. All of you must drink the Bimoli essence that we have provided, just think of it as a supporting weapon of the kingdom. A toast!"

"Return!"Answer everyone in unison.

'Viothen Vrawl Academy, I'm coming!'

hers.

"Yoo! my dear sister what are you doing here by yourself?"Eden's half-brother, prince Luck. Coming and approaching Eden who was in the corner of the room while carrying two glasses, after the banquet was finished, the next thing to be held was a dance. Eden deliberately pulled over and isolated himself because he did not like the crowd, as well as hiding from the nobles who always licked himself. But who would have thought, Eden's 5th foster brother managed to find it.

"Just hiding from the crowd, Eden greeted brother Luck."Eden already realized that there must be something wrong being prepared by prince Luck, otherwise how could a bad person and always hate himself turn 180 degrees?

"Hahahahaha, there's no need to salute my sister. You and Leony are the main cast today, you two will soon enter the Viothen Vrawl academy and I will definitely welcome you both well there."Prince Luck smiled cunningly as he gave Eden a glass of wine he was holding, Eden received the wine that Prince Luck had given and drank it immediately when he knew it was a trap.

Seeing that Eden was about to finish her drink, Prince Luck again smiled sinisterly.

"Eden, you don't have to rush. What if you just go back to your room and get some rest? Tomorrow you still have to move, I'll go and tell father."

"Thank you so much, brother, I just happened to feel a little sleepy."

"No problem, rest well my sister." Prince Luck stepped out of Eden.'I hope you can wake up on time tomorrow~'Innya later.

'He's gone, isn't he? Huh! I thought there was going to be something horrendous about what, it turned out to be just a low-dose moon shadowy poison. This poison will only put me to sleep for 3 days, it will not kill me. He intends to make me late for the magic testing event.'Eden turned his body and took out a blackish pearl from his mouth, and put it into the empty glass given by Prince Luck.

"I don't know if you're going to get this trick either or not, even if the poison has been successfully removed but I still feel sleepy."The word sister spoken by Eden refers to Leony's daughter, and Eden muttered as she left the dance hall. He had no idea that on the other hand, Leony's daughter was busy circling around looking for him.

'Argghh, where's that stupid kid? he must have gotten something from the 7th brother too, right? with his level of intelligence now, he would definitely not realize anything! I have to find him soon.'It turned out that Leony's daughter also received a surprise from her brothers and sisters, like Eden. It's just that the perpetrators are different.

A girl who was in the crowd along with her lover glanced at Eden who had stepped out of the room, looking just flat. Does not show any face.

"Aurora, what's wrong?"Ask Card.

Hearing the call from the lover, Aurora turned her gaze back."Ohh, it's nothing. I just felt a bit upset about having to enter the same academy as Eden, really sickening!"Answer Aurora.

"Ohh......."

Soon the dance was finally over, and everyone was asked to go home and return to the palace hall the next morning. They would set off for the garden where the sacred tree of the Digrasirs was located, and do some testing. Tomorrow will be filled with laughter of joy or tears of sorrow, the sacred tree of the Digrasirs will only choose the best.
