I took a deep breath, "i'll stop the selection right now."
"Sorry Your Majesty, has His Majesty found someone?" Brother Althea looks curious.
"True," I got up and took my foot into the moor of a heart that was still confused looking at me, I patted him on the shoulder, our eyes met and looked for a while until he finally stood up and took my hand, I stepped with him into the middle of the hall.
"Include Varen Vijendra, the Crown Prince of the Silver Empire," I said unequivocally, standing with Varen with interlocking hands gave me incredible courage. "I chose him to be my side," I said, staring at Varen, who was now smiling.
"An immeasurable gift to me stands in the middle of the sun imperial hall with my most beloved," Varen looked at the people before him, trying to ask for the blessing of all present. "I know I'm not perfect, but I want to do whatever it takes to be able to stand together with Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess, I am Varen Vijendra asking for the blessing of all those present," Varen bowed in all directions, then he took off our hands and rested in front of his father and mother.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty the Empress, I who are just this ordinary person might not be worthy of loving Her Highness the Crown Princess who is so perfect and precious, she said, but I promise to make her happy and spare her from distress, I promise to love her to death with full loyalty without hesitation" Varen said in earnest, his voice trembled in the form of earnestness from his deep heart. "Then I asked for the blessing of His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty the Empress" Varen said.
I joined Varen, "Ayahanda, Mother, we have been separated for a long time and Varen has been doing some tough tests until we can finally meet again, so at least from everything that happened we've learned about what love is and how to love exactly with each other." I grabbed Varen's hand again and grabbed him, "Dad, our mother begs for blessing."
The eyes of the father and mother look teary, I strengthen Varen because learning from before, the father has given a lot of exams to Kak Aditya and Kak Arya as a form of proof.
"I give my blessing" the voice echoed throughout the hall, making a rowdy atmosphere, and even Varen and I looked at him in disbelief, and he looked at me for an explanation.
"Although Your Majesty, shouldn't His Majesty test the Crown Prince's candidate as a form of proof?" The Fire Kingdom King took the vote, the question was the representative of many people.
Father smiled, his hand grabbed the mother's shoulder and embraced her trying to calm down, "i along with the elders, teachers and many royal dignitaries have given tests that I may not have even done before to my two daughters-in-law, but look now, my future son-in-law looks healthy and intends to take my daughter bravely," the father looked at Varen with a complex gaze, I saw a sense of pride mixed with sadness.
"Vamana, please show it to everyone present" father gave orders to Uncle Varen.
A large screen appeared in front of us showing Varen facing his uncle, showing that he was in great pain when his immortality was revoked. I hugged Varen's hand in horror, my body shaking violently at the pain that Varen might have felt back then, I looked at him with a feeling of sadness, my tears had welled up in my eyes but I held on with all my might.
The back screen featured Varen desperately fighting the high-level dark creatures many times, wounds adorning his entire body with fresh blood visible everywhere, I could not see it, I could not see it, my tears are flowing I can't hold them anymore.
"Daughter," my mother's voice rang out in my mind, it seemed that my mother contacted me via telepathy. "It hurts and as much as you can, strengthen yourself to look at it and put it all well into your memory."
I was still sobbing at Varen's windpipe, that my tears were soaking down her clothes. "My daughter tried to do it, so that later when something made you angry, disappointed or maybe doubted your husband, you could put it down by remembering the hard struggle he had done for you, to prove his love, he said, he is even willing to sacrifice everything, so brace yourself to see it."
I set my breath and broke free from Varen's embrace. Varen looked at me, he reached out his hand wiping the tears on both my cheeks, then stretched out a handkerchief to me, I accepted it and wiped my face.
As mother said, I was trying to gather courage, my eyes were staring at mother at a glance, mother gave me a nod as if giving me the spirit to endure.
"Are you okay?" asked Varen with a worried look.
I nodded, Varen clasped my shoulders tightly, and I chose to lean my head on his shoulder. We looked at the screen still sitting tight, I saw a badly injured Varen hanging at the end of the ravine, his hands just holding on to the sharp end of the rock, fresh blood dripping unceasingly, horrors piercing me. Varen seemed to be very sensitive to the change in my emotions, he started patting me on the shoulder slowly, giving me calmness.
He tried to hold on until he was finally able to climb back up, but this time it was not a dark creature that confronted him but both my brother-in-law and Ezio's uncle.
What the hell are they doing? My eyes were wide open, my emotions were burning, my aura was activated unconsciously. They attacked Varen at the same time, isn't this unfair? Why are they playing?
"Aira," called Varen softly, her voice making me calm again. "Everything they do is proof of their love for you, so control your emotions or they will be hurt by the powerful effects of your aura."
I stared at the people Varen meant, sure enough that they looked depressed by my fully activated aura, some even looked deathly pale from holding it in, I immediately pulled my aura. "Sorry," I said softly making Varen smile and caressing my hair.
I looked back at the screen but I seemed to have missed an important scene, because now on the screen there was Varen standing with an incredible ice aura, while Ezio's uncle and my two brothers-in-law froze like ice sculptures, oh my goodness it must be so cold!
"Good job" I said, giving Varen a thumbs up.
The screen continues to display the Varen test that continues to attract the attention of the entire room, until the emergence of Agam and Agler. Everyone present was in disbelief when Varen voluntarily gave Agam his crystal aura, but unlike the others, I was curious about how Varen was doing afterwards. Varen chose to wear the blessing that he had to survive, he had the blessing of great people so their aura was not kidding, Varen intelligently mixed everything and made it a substitute aura. I caught a satisfied smile on my father's face, and the calmness on his mother's face, I hugged Varen and transferred my aura, I secretly did an examination, I was worried that there were still injuries.
