chapter-972
972 He's not the one I am worried about.
"Heh. It sure is lively."
Arcturus spoke with a small smile on his face as he glanced at the huge stadium from the window of his room.
Right now, he and the other leaders were sitting together in a room provided by the Royal Vampire Family. Obviously, since the room represented the Blood Kingdom, the room was extremely lavish and had everything. From the most comfortable sofas, to perfect furniture that went well with other minor details.
Of course, for the leaders, things like these didn't matter, it was just a formality from the Blood Kingdom's side. They were rather focused on the Huge Stadium that they could see from their room.This was the stadium that would be used for the before-
marriage event, Ceremonial Unity Clash.
It was a 2-week event where many young Vampires or people from other races clash against each other, the winner may propose to the person they love. Of course, acceptance or rejection depended on the person who was proposed.
It was usually a fun event that is the beginning of many love stories and was one of the popular events in the Blood Kingdoms.
Some of the marriages that happened because of this event are even funded and attended by the Vampire King himself.
Some people simply use this event to get into the eyes of the high noble Vampires, while most just treat it as a perfect opportunity to heroically defeat the enemy and propose to the person they love.
Events like these are usually held before the marriage of a high noble family's children. Normally, it is an event where only the Vampires from lower noble families or no family participate, some Vampires try to challenge the Groom, trying to show their worth to the soon-to-be Bride and win her heart. Of course, these things happen rarely since no one tries to create trouble in an event arranged by High Nobles.However, this time, things were a little different.
This time, the one getting married was none other than one of the 4 'Flowers' of the Blood Kingdom, the King's niece, Melia Bloodheart. Many Vampires had feelings for Melia and didn't make a move just because Bloodhearts were known to marry a lot later than other Vampires.
The sudden news of Melia's marriage was a shock to them.
And none of the Vampires were willing to give up that easily.
They all had decided,
The Mysterious Groom, they would challenge that man, they would defeat him and embarrass him in front of the large crowd, and will confess their love for Melia Bloodheart, asking her to reconsider her decision of marrying that unknown man.
Were they planning to disturb the Event arranged by the Royal Family? Yes, there were!
Royal Family was known for being fair, as long as they don't go too far, the Vampires knew nothing would happen.
Also, this time, the Vampires who were willing to challenge the Groom were not just any Vampires, they were all children of high noble Vampire Families. The nobles who should have been married to Melia 'rightfully'.
Actually, it was not just Vampires who were going to challenge the Groom, people of other races all over the Yrniel were waiting for it as well.
Interracial Marriages weren't seen positively since no race other than humans was capable of reproducing with other races and even in the case of Humans, the Blood of the child is often deteriorated.
However, even after that, just the chance to impress Melia Bloodheart and defeat her 'Groom' to gain world-level popularity was enough for some non-vampires to participate in the tournament.
Yes, Melia's Groom, Nux, who is not even introduced to the world yet has already been marked as an enemy by all almost the men present in the Blood Kingdom.
"Heh, I am looking forward to this Ceremonial Unity Clash."
Arcturus spoke as he glanced at around 5km long line that was formed in front of the Stadium.
Yes, all of these were the men who were here to challenge Nux, and this was for an event that was announced 2 weeks ago. Most of the men had already registered themselves. These were the few unlucky ones who still hadn't.
"I would advise you guys to not allow your children to participate in this Event."
Suddenly, Orpheus spoke as he looked into his eyes.
"What do you mean?" Arcturus questioned with a playful smile on his face.
"Let's not talk in riddles, Lord Arcturus.
Your son, stop him from challenging Nux."
Orpheus then turned towards a few more people and,
"The same goes for you as well."
"Already being protective of your son-in-law huh? Haahh, I don't know how your daughter would be happy after choosing a man who needs your protection, but you don't have to worry, my sons won't challenge a mere Emperor." Arcturus replied.
"…"
Orpheus wanted to drop the bomb, however, in the end, he decided to hold it in.
"I just don't want your son to be challenging Nux."
"Yes Yes, don't worry, as I said, he won't," Arcturus replied.
"You should have just chosen a better son-in-law if you are going to be that protective."
Suddenly, another man with long black hair spoke up.
He was Caine Crimsonblade, the Leader of the Crimsonblade Duke House, one of the 5 Dukes of the Blood Kingdom.
His son, Silas Crimsonblade, liked Melia for a long time, Caine even decided to personally visit Orpheus and talk about this matter, however, Orpheus rejected his request telling him how it was Melia's choice and how she wasn't willing to get married yet.
But now he was invited to attend the same Melia's wedding. Caine felt like he was disrespected.
"Choosing a mere Emperor, that too, a human as a Groom for your only daughter. Tsk, the man is so weak that even challenging him would be embarrassing. If you had done a better job, you wouldn't be here asking us not to challenge your son-in-law just so you could save him from the embarrassment."
Caine snorted.
Orpheus, however, simply shook his head,
"He's not the one I am worried about."
