Supreme Origin: Time King

Chapter 254: XXIV Banquet

After his talk with Yawen's father, Elijah washed himself in the bathroom Yawen prepared for him as he changed into a set of ceremonial tunic brought by a shy female servant.

The girl who looked like a ten year old child wearing the gray uniform of every servant in the palace extended her hands timidly towards Elijah."Lord Elijah, this is the tunic used by every member or relative of the eternal void royal family in special events. The princess had this servant send this robe to you, you just need to touch it with a drop of blood and it will envelop your body. Bye."

This female servant seemed really nervous and not knowing where to look at before she handed the small case with the tunic before fleeing the room with her face red.

"Well." Looking at the case, Elijah did as he was told and put a drop of his blood on top of it. Before he could even see, he was already dressed in a strangely modern looking tunic with lines that lit with a dark gray glow. The thin milky-white crystal in the center of his chest gave the finishing touch, making him look like a valiant yet mysterious person. The only uncomfortable thing was that the tunic accentuates his muscles and exquisite-curves that even women would be jealous of, and made his butt look a bit too big. 

Leaving his room, he noticed a few other members of the royal family wearing similar clothes, but without the crystal on its chest. He just took a few steps before he gasped, for a moment he lost the ability to think when seeing three figures waiting for him. A black-haired beauty stood in the right, wearing a similar style of tunic. Long and not too tight, the tunic accentuated just the right places in her body in order to give the best effect making her slightly gray skin completely flawless. Her hair was in the way she liked the most. The pure-black strands of hair flow down her back, obscuring revealing skin on the back of her tunic, yet allowing glimpses of the sweet skin beneath it when the wind blows.

Sarina, with her golden hair tied in a glamorous ponytail and a golden tiara. With shoulders uncovered, the tunic embraced around her neck and flows down into a tasteful sweetheart neckline. It's a close fit which emphasizes her breasts in an elegant and dignified manner while a golden crystal was embedded in the center of her clothes.

Because her relationship with Elijah was a bit more complicated, Aina stood a bit behind the other two, but in no way less beautiful and gracious than them. She wasn't wearing any jewels, only a plain purple dress. It was a simple and ordinary compared to Yawen and Sarina, who was the same person in the end. However, it was this simpleness that reminded him of the memories they shared as a couple in another timeline.

"Well, should we head to the main hall?"

"Oh yes, yes. Cassie and the others are waiting there, we even prepared a sur... Ouch.." Yawen was a bit too excited and nearly said something she shouldn't say when both Aina and Sarina pinched her arm.

"We are fine, there is no reason to stay here in the corridor. Let's go." Aina and Sarina took the initiative to pull Elijah by his left and right arm respectively, while Yawen pushed his back so he could walk faster.

Arriving in the main hall, Elijah came across various familiar faces. Yalli and Cassie were dressed in the same ceremonial tunic and the latter showed an awkward expression. Because of the lineage inherited from her mother, the void clan ancestral hall back in the abyss has registered Cassie as a direct descendant of the royal family and daughter of Yawen. The Void King himself went to her, asking about her past.

Different from the elders of his clan, he and the grand elder in charge of the ancestral altar able to track any descendant of the clan, they knew there wasn't enough time for Elijah to have a child so early. The even sent people to Elijah's world, the one he was born into to discover more and just like them, though Elijah only met Cassie close to a year after entering the Valhalla academy in that place.

Knowing she couldn't lie when facing the expression on his face, she decided to explain her identity and the secret behind her relationship with Elijah and Yawen. She thought the man wouldn't be happy to hear it, but the expected fury didn't appear. Instead, he hugged her tightly and said he was still her grandpa.

He even said that all of this is done, he would take her to the abyss so he could confer upon her the title of princess.

Elijah exchanged glances with her and smiled to the small golden dragon sleeping on her lap. He was happy to see how much Cassie doted on her little brother. 

Sarina and Aina both split from Elijah and Yawen before they went to sit on Cassie's table. They both said."Well then, I and Aina are going to rest a little. You should go with sis Yawen and introduce yourself to some of the guests, you are part of the void clan now." 

"Okay, it's not that bad having to know a few more people." As a former mortal noble, he knew a lot of etiquette and it would be outrageous of him to ignore the many guests when he was a son-in-law of the void clan.

There they saw a purple-haired old man and an old lady with transparent wings chatting and drinking a glowing drink before they noticed the presences of both Yawen and Elijah and went to greet them. He also saw the brats of the tempest clan and a few young Elvish-looking girls beside them.

Yawen took the chance and transmitted her voice in his mind. "This is the previous tempest king of the eternal tempest clan. Linorg and this the female are the current supervisor of the Elf territory. The high-elf Thalia Ercyne."

Elijah greeted both of them and shared a few drinks before they went to another group of people. Now it was a male wearing countless jewels, his light-blue skin and green tattoos all over his both reminded him of an old friend, Keith.

"This man is a true elemental god of wind and air, a natural entity born from nature. The air Genasi like your friend Keith are all descendents of him. Over there is the dragon clan's five ancestors, I met them before with my other body when I traveled the celestial world in the beast territory. They were curious about the new species of dragon they never met before. Look, that girl Athena is here too together with Aphrodite, I suppose we wait the latter is gone before talking with her or the latter will invite us to an intimate meeting in her private chambers." 

Elijah heard the tone of satire in her voice and nodded repeatedly knowing she would beat the shit out of the injured him if he hesitated even if just a little.
