THE RISE OF THE KNIGHTS OF SINNERS
#41# FIRST DAY OF MEETING PART 1
...Teengs... Teng... Teng... Teng... ...
The bells of Gerel's palace tower began to ring when, the time showed at 7 am. Right this morning the meeting of the kings across the continent officially began.
This meeting will last for 5 days. On the first day there is usually a welcoming party as well as a signer of a new peace treaty. Then on the 2nd to 4th day there will be bilateral meetings that discuss sensitive matters between kingdoms. And on day 5 there will be a closing party.
This year the marquis Aiden was chosen as the creator and bearer of the new covenant. This is a form of respect for world leaders to holy war heroes. Both the opposing party and comrades, all of them were very respectful towards the iron masked male knight's soul.
At 8am when all the guests were present in the palace hall, the world leaders were present walking in pairs holding hands as a symbol of friendship. Not all kings are present at the event today. On average they are represented by the prince and his daughter. Except for the royal kings from the western continent, they were all present.
In the hall has been prepared 13 thrones for 13 world leaders. There are actually 15 kingdoms in the world only Singaraja kingdom and Axel kingdom absent.
For Singaraja kingdom can be understood because indeed their distance from Gerelia is very far. As for Axel is unknown. However, since the second holy war ended, the relationship between Gerelia and Axel never improved.
In addition, this meeting did not deliberately involve the holy kingdom of Deusia or Angelusia. If inviting them, fear will happen things that are not desirable considering these two kingdoms are tense.
After the kings sat on the throne with the applause of the nobles of Gerelia, not long marquis Aiden came while carrying a golden box decorated with dozens of crystals and pearls. Behind the hero, there are 3 children who go hand in hand adjusting the footsteps of the father.
...Taps... Taps... Tap... ...
The marquis walked forward and faced the world leaders. He immediately knelt down and opened the box he was carrying. Inside the box was a piece of paper and a stationery with gold ink.
Without a word, one by one the world leaders came forward and left and their hands on that paper.
" With this, the world will once again be shaded by peace! " the King Charles closed the signing ceremony of the new peace treaty.
The sound of the happy voices of the guests with their applause clearly indicates that no one wants war anymore.
After the signing ceremony, one by one the leaders addressed their vision and mission to continue to realize the lasting peace between the eastern and western kingdoms and the ideals of peace between 2 religious people.
The speech lasted half a day and immediately resumed a massive feast at the palace.
Both the kings, princes, princesses, and nobles from various kingdoms were chatting and joking. And this is what Leo really wants to see.
He hoped the world could continue like this. There is no more bloodshed that only breeds suffering for humanity.
At the party Leo is seen leaning against the wall while enjoying a cup of red wine. That's how he enjoys parties. Unlike most people in general who enjoy parties by dancing, eating various banquets, or even looking for a soul mate, Leo hatches it this way.
Peaceful scenery without any curse and blasphemy from the eastern and western nations that he had always heard. And at this moment what he heard was the sound of happy laughter.
Meanwhile, on the other hand Thalia was actually troubled by the many nobles who tried to approach her. Yes, the news of the cancellation of the engagement of Thalia and Aron has spread everywhere. That moment is what they use. After all who wouldn't want to be with a girl as beautiful and as great as Thalia. Even the new king of the kingdom of Orion, the king of Tira, also fell in love with him.
...***...
" Don't you hang out there, young man? " ask a luxurious robed middle-aged man and bring a golden cup. He walked over to Leo.
" Who would have thought we'd meet here" the man continued.
" It is good to meet you, the noble king of Iris, ", Leo replied, bowing his head for a moment.
King Iris smiled and sat down next to Leo. " How's your father doing? "
" Because of the curse, the father's condition is getting worse and worse, "
" Hhhh." the king of Iris sighed heavily with a glance at the marquis Aiden who was conversing with other nobles. " I fought twice with your father and he managed to knock me unconscious for 4 months, "
" I've heard that story from my mother. I've never seen you fight, but I heard that you fought with me for two days, "
" He's a great man. His ingenuity and speed really made me lose. Be proud to have been born as his son, "
" That's how I feel now, your majesty. But somehow until when this pride will turn into sorrow considering the life of the father who continues to erode, "
" The purpose of man is to die. Man is born with tears of joy and dies with tears of sorrow. But unlike the knights, they were born with happy cries but died with happy smiles as well. Didn't you ever hear similar words as I said? "
" Yes, my father once said the same thing, "
" He also told me that. I want to talk to your king. Talking to you here can make the nobles of Gerelia suspicious. I'll look forward to your arrival at my palace son Aiden, "
" Some time if there is a time I will surely meet you noble, "
" I await your arrival. See you. "king Iris stood up and walked to the throne again. Leo returned to his early life.
But over time he started to get bored because there was nothing he could talk to. Most guests just say hello and leave. Leo also could not get close to Thalia who was still mobbed by nobles, and her father and Melina also experienced the same thing. While Licia accompanied the grandfather.
Very bored and sultry, Leo decided to go out of the palace to get a fresh breeze.
Just a few minutes into the breeze outside, Melina suddenly comes and pulls Leo on the orders of marquis Aiden.
Leo's unalterable clan to the Valdius clan made many of Gerelia's nobles who did not know him. Therefore, the marquis Aiden introduced Leonard to nobles especially the kings of the Western kingdoms.
They were all taken aback when marquis Aiden loudly introduced his son.
The nobles were surprised because they did not expect the figure of Marquis Aiden's son who had once gone crazy to turn into a figure of dashing and dignified youth.
After that introduction, many nobles began to approach Leo and invite him to talk. It seems that marquis Aiden is very sensitive to the current mood of Leo who seems to be considered an uninvited stranger.
