Many nobles cheered, put down their wine glasses, and burst into thunderous applause.
However, some observant people still noticed the emperor's wording.
His Majesty never said that this was a banquet to celebrate the princess's birthday.
This was held solely for the princess.
It was just a banquet.
These nobility members, who had been speculating, were initially curious about the true purpose of the banquet, or perhaps, there was a deeper meaning behind it.
Seeing the cheering crowd, Aubrey gestured downwards, signaling the nobles to quiet down.
"However, there is one more thing."
"I would like to take this opportunity to announce this in front of everyone."
It's here!
This is the kind of plot twist that many people have been waiting for.
After all, there were a lot more people gathered here because of Aurelion's birthday.
Basically, all the ministers and celebrities in the vast capital city had gathered here.
With so many people present at the same time, it's hard not to speculate about the meaning behind the banquet.
There must be something to announce for so many people to be here.
Now it seems that the emperor's words have confirmed the suspicions of countless people.
What exactly happened?
The nobles waited with bated breath, completely absorbed.
Suddenly, a magical force descended.
A space within the banquet hall began to tremble, as if twisting open several cracks, from which countless phantoms spilled out.
Soon, the blurry shadows began to overlap, and the chaotic, digital appearance gradually subsided, revealing the figure of the newcomer.
Flames and shattered rocks appeared simultaneously in the air, quickly swirling and merging together.
Several monotonous blue magical energy streams gradually descended from the sky amidst the flames, their patterns converging.
That's Haim Horn, Ryan Kent.
And there's Rachel Blue.
All three of them wore broken three-headed badges on their chests, a symbol of their status as mage councilors.
Under the candlelight, the three badges shone with an unusual starlight, and something suddenly flashed through their minds.
All eyes were drawn to it.
Their faces showed shock, and exclamations of surprise rang out.
"That...that is it!"
"They are three members of the Mage Council!"
Wow!
The moment the words fell, the entire audience erupted in uproar!
The councilors represent the twelve most senior mages in the Mage Council.
They were almost all at the pinnacle of fourth-tier mages.
Such a person, no matter which country they appear in, would be welcomed as an honored guest.
Soon, countless people recognized who these three people were.
A thousand faces, a thousand illusions
Haim Horn.
The Unyielding Blue Flame Forge
Ryan Kent
And one of the more well-known members of parliament among the Imperials.
[Natural Eye for Observation]
Rachel Blue
The three councilors appeared in the banquet hall at the same time, in front of countless people of the empire, and in front of Emperor Auberly.
In an instant, countless people seemed to suddenly realize something.
The three councilors simultaneously bowed slightly to Emperor Aubrey.
"On behalf of the Mage Council, we extend our heartfelt blessings to Princess Aurelian of the Karencia Empire."
The moment the words fell, several magic circles suddenly lit up behind Heimhorn.
With a kind of fantastical starlight, the sky gradually darkened.
Everyone couldn't help but look up at the ceiling.
At this moment, the ceiling seemed to be covered by something, like a chaotic mess that made it difficult to see clearly.
Soon, it gradually transformed into a dazzling starry sky, shining through the clouds.
The stars revolve, falling with their light, their brilliance shining through.
Like delicate white veils, they gently showered Aurelion with the light from each star.
[Fourth-Tier Magic: Star Blessing]
After doing all this, the starlight gradually faded, and Aurelion looked at herself with a mixture of confusion and curiosity.
It's as if a star's mark has been etched onto her body.
Soon, Heim Horn's voice rang out again.
"This is a gift for you, Your Highness."
"For seven days, the blessings of the stars will always be with you."
At this moment, countless nobles were speechless.
What is top-tier treatment? This is top-tier treatment!
No one had ever imagined that the birthday of an imperial princess would attract three councilors to offer her their blessings.
This is a treatment no girl has ever received before!
Many young noble ladies expressed extreme envy, but they could never obtain such treatment in their entire lives.
Because everyone present was well aware of it.
They did not have a father who was an emperor like Aubrey.
There was no one like Victor, who was a teacher to a member of parliament.
At that moment, Aubrey smiled with satisfaction as well.
He looked straight ahead and said:
"From this day forward, I will make this official announcement."
"The heir to the throne will, in the future, be my daughter—"
"Aurelian Thor, the successor."
boom!
A bombshell was dropped, its deafening roar echoing throughout the entire banquet hall.
At this moment, countless nobles were in a state of mental blankness, unable to even think or understand.
No way, what the hell is going on?!
Aurelion is about to ascend the throne!?
She's only fifteen... no, after her birthday she'll only be sixteen!
That's not the point. What is the point?!
The next emperor of the Karencia Empire will be a princess!?
